Custom Sales Order Status

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

My client has a requirement to create custom order statuses.

Currenlty std SAP provides with only a few statusses which doesnt give enuf visibility to the Sales Representatives abt which stage the Order is:

Open (When SO is created & delv is not yet being created)

Being Processed (when a Delivery Document for a few items is created)

Completed (When Delivery Document is created for all the items)

Now the Sales Representative wants to see statuses which would show at which stage the item fulfillement is, in case of a MTO item.

Thus a rought estimate of the order statuses that are expected at sales order level are:

Open

Productiom order released

Production order confirmed

Being processed (when a Delivery Document for a few items is created)

Delivery created (When Delivery for all items relevant for delivery is created)

Shipped(PGI is done )

Can anyone explain me step by step how to acheive this ?

I have gone thru thread for User Status Profiles. However I am unable to know how to make use of it for my scenario, which includes displaying the update of succeding document Transaction (eg Production Order/Delivery Doc. Transactions) in Sales order.

This is due to the fact that we are using SAP CRM for our front end which has visibility only to a Sales Order.

( Also this configuration has to be done in ECC as CRM will only download it -- in case someone suggests to do it in CRM )

Thanks in Advance
