Documentation

Use

By activating this function, the Lean Staffing functionality to maintain capacity engagements becomes available for sales documents. This incorporates the following functions:

  • You can run the Lean Staffing application for the sales document engagement type.
  • The Configurable Sales UI provides the follow up action Assign Employees (Sales Document) to launch the Lean Staffing application from there for the current sales document.
  • The sales backend communicates with the Lean Staffing framework at defined points in time, such as when deleting a sales item or when deleting or archiving a sales document.
  • The Lean Staffing framework checks authorization for the sales header and sales item for Lean Staffing data events create/change, display and delete. The system uses the following authorization objects:
    • V_VBAK_VKO to check the display authorization of the sales documents sales area
    • V_PRS_LS_H to check the sales header for the Lean Staffing activity
    • V_PRS_LS_I to check the sales item for the Lean Staffing activity

Dependencies

This functionality is only available if the Commercial Project Inception and Lean Staffing (PRS_ERP_CPILS_1) business function has been activated and if the Assign Employees (Sales Document) functionality has been subsequently switched on in Customizing for SD with this indicator.

Switching Off

If you switch off this Customizing indicator, the system does no longer proceed with the Lean Staffing functionality.
This means, for example, that:

  • The Lean Staffing application for the sales document engagement type can no longer be called.
  • The Configurable Sales UI no longer provides the related follow-up action Assign Employees (Sales Document) to launch the application Lean Staffing for the sales document engagement type.
  • Lean Staffing data for the sales document engagement type remains on the database when deleting or archiving sales documents or items. This does not cause any negative side effects for sales document processing. Some pending engagement data might still exist on the database which can be cleaned up subsequently.
