Documentation

Definition

Indicates the number of days that authorizations are valid within the R/3 System.

Use

By specifying an authorization validity period, you can ensure that all expired authorizations are detected and reauthorized.

When you create a delivery, the system checks if the authorization has expired. If so, the system sets the authorized amount to "0" and warns you to reauthorize in the sales order.

Note

This is an internal setting and may not necessarily correspond to the actual validity period of the authorization, which normally runs from one to four weeks.

If you do not specify a value, the system assumes that authorizations do not expire.
