Hi Tushar,

You can use a release procedure, which allows you, for example, to create condition records purely for planning purposes, which are then only taken into consideration after a pricing release. For this release procedure, you can use the processing and release statuses. You are free to define and use a processing status, although the release status can not be maintained by you directly but results indirectly from your assignment to a processing status.

The release status and processing status are only available for the new condition tables . If you also want to use this status for condition records that already exist, you can convert this .

Release Status

The release status is already set. You can only set a processing status using assignment and selection of a processing status. The following statuses are currently defined:

released

blocked

released for price simulation (this means the creation of a net price list using the report SDNETPR0)

released for planning (this means planning in CO-PA) and price simulation

If several condition records are found at the access with different release statuses, the following priorities apply:

Pricing:

only for the release status released

Simulation:

first released for simulation

then released for planning and simulation

then released

Planning:

then released for planning and simulation

then released

Processing status

You are free to define the processing status. You can define your own processing status in Pricing for Customizing and assign these a fixed release status.

Examples for processing status:

released

first draft

for approval

approved department X

approved department Y

approved department Z

approved management

Thanks!
