Documentation

Definition

Key date on which the specification was last changed.

Except for changes to the header data, the system takes all data that relates to the specification into account, such as changes to:

  • Identifiers
  • Assignments of regulatory lists
  • Value assignments
  • Components
  • User-defined texts

Notes

The key date is specified when the specification workbench is started. It is not necessarily the same as the current date.

To determine the date of the last change to the specification in a customer-defined program you can read out the specification time stamp using function module EHSB_TMSTMB_READ_TIMESTAMPS, or you can follow the instructions in SAP note 874191.

The date of the last change to the specification is always set to the key date on which the specification was last processed. This is not always the date of the last change to the specification (see SAP Note 874191).
