Definition

Starting from the reorganization date and going back into the past: number of months for which a sales document is always relevant for the reorganization.

Use

A reorganization usually only affects objects that have not been processed completely. This is because it is assumed that there are follow-on activities that occur on the basis of these objects and using the new assignment.

However, it cannot be established with certainty on the basis of the processing status of sales documents whether any follow-on activities occur. For example, a sales order might already have the overall processing status "Completed" before it has been billed completely. Furthermore, the status may subsequently change back into "In Process".

Dependencies

Consequently, in Customizing for the Reorganization in the activity Specify Periods for Sales Document Selection, you can specify for a specific type of sales document the period of time (in months), starting from the reorganization date and going back into the past, over which such sales documents are always included in the reorganization.
The date used is the date on which the document item was entered (field name: VBAP-ERDAT).

Example

You specify a period of three months for sales orders. The reorganization consequently includes the following sales orders:

  • All sales orders that are newer than three months (calculated from the reorganization date) and that correspond to the restrictions of the reorganization plan, and
  • All sales orders that are older than three months and do not have the overall processing status "Completed" yet.
