Definition

Specifies the approval status that the specification must have so that the SAP System can select it during a search.

Dependencies

The approval status only appears in certain combinations with the status for the inheritance relationship:

Inheritance Status         Approval Status   

Initial     |@BZ@    Requested     |@9Y@

Ready to inherit     |@5D@    Approved     |@01@

Consistent     |@5B@    Approved     |@01@

Incorrect     |@5C@    Approved     |@01@

Initial     |@BZ@    Rejected     |@02@

Only when an inheritance status is approved can the status of the inheritance relationship switch from Initial to Ready to inherit. If source data is changed in an inheritance relationship that is already consistent, the status also changes from Consistent to Ready to inherit.

After the status has changed to Ready to inherit the data is updated by the background job for the inheritance. The approval status remains as Approved and the inheritance status switches to Consistent (or switches to Incorrect if errors occur). See also IMG activity Set Up Job for Inheritance.
