How to make message IW 703 as error in T-Code: IW31.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

In SAP R/3 PM, during the Work Oder creation in T-Code: IW31, we are getting the Message "IW 703 - Work Centre -- Locked in Plant -- " as WARNING. This happens whenever we use a locked Work Centre. But further it allows us to create the order.

Our scenario is to make this message as ERROR. That it should NOT allow to create a work order with a locked work center.

This has already been maintained as "E" in "configure messages" in IMG for IW 703.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

We tried the suggestion given by you, but it's not working. We are still able create a work order using a locked work center.

The program is hard coded as below:

"MESSAGE W703 WITH P_VAPLZ P_VAWRK"

Please advise how to change this message from warning to an error one so that it prevents creation of work order with a locked work center.

Thanks,

Muneer.
