Documentation
Definition
Number of calendar days determining the protected time period for processing a change master or a change object. Within this time period, you see a warning message.
The base date for the check is today's date. The system calculates the warning time (in days) by counting forward or backward from today's date.
The protected time period includes the date calculated and all days before this date (see example).
Use
The check is made in the following processing situations:
- Processing a change master record
- Entering the valid-from date
- Entering an alternative date
- Shifting the valid-from date or alternative date
- Allocating an alternative date to a change object or deleting an allocation
- Processing a change object with reference to a change number whose valid-from date is in the protected time period
- Changing a change object (for example, BOM or routing)
- Assigning or changing a revision level
Examples
How the protected time period for a warning message is calculated
- Settings in Customizing
- Date check active
- Warn. time in days: 10
- Processing:
Date shift in the change master record. - System checks:
- Today's date: 10/10/96
==> Protected time period: 10/20/96 and the days before - Date shifted to: 10/15/96
==> Warning message, because 10/15/96 is in the protected time period. - If you confirm the warning message, you can shift the date to 10/15/96.
Dependencies
If you enter a negative value (such as 10-), the system calculates the protected time period backward from the valid-from date.
