Definition

This field contains the creation date of the root item.

So that you can allocate contract items and quotation items and their corresponding sales order items within ODP-based queries, the contract items and quotation items need a self-reference. The referenced sales order item needs to reference the original contract/quotation item.

The system checks the following sales document fields:
VBELN - Sales and distribution document number
POSNR - Item number of the SD document
ERDAT - Date on which record was created
VGBEL - Document number of the reference document
VGPOS - Item number of the reference item

In addition, the following fields are used internally:
ROOT_HEAD - Document number of the root header
ROOT_ITEM - Item number of the root item
ROOT_DATE - Date of the root item

Use

The ROOT_DATE field is filled with values during statistical data enrichment at application runtime (function module MCV_STATISTICS_ORDER) or at direct access data retrieval (method FILL_MC11VA0ITM of class CL_SD_ANLY_CORE_SERVICES).

Dependencies

The following rules apply:

  • In the case of a contract item or quotation item, the ROOT_DATE field contains self-reference data from ERDAT.
  • In the case of a sales order item with reference to contract or quotation item, the field ROOT_DATE contains ERDAT data from the original item.
