Supplementary Documentation - MSGTY 0110

Definition

Key you use to specify what happens if

  • The operation sequence is not adhered to during confirmation.

    For example, you want to confirm operation 20 before operation 10 has been confirmed.

  • You want to confirm a greater quantity than was confirmed for the previous operation.

    Here, the system checks the quantity to be confirmed (yield + reworked quantity + scrap) against the confirmed yield + rework quantity from the previous operation.

You can choose between the following:

  • information message
  • error message
  • termination message
  • message on the following screen

Dependencies

A milestone confirmation cannot be confirmed until the previous milestone operation has at least been "partially confirmed".
