Lock characteristic value for configurable material in Sales Order

[former_member403242]

Is there a setting in SAP which can prevent user changing characteristic value for configurable material in Sales Order after production order created for this Sales Order? Currently, it can only works when first delivery create for this Sales Order.

Thanks a lot.

Amy, Ravi's answer is crap. That's a master data set up that will NOT work for what you are looking for. Might have to look at a user exit for this

Thank for all reply.

I find a way to solve this problem. I wll check vbap-klmeng value, if it is >0, then assign all characteristic for no input.

Hi Amy

I wll check vbap-klmeng value, if it is >0, then assign all characteristic for no input.

Can you please share, how you make characteristics for no input based on vbap-klmeng?

Hi,

You can create characteristic like O_NO_INPUT_XXXX, then in dependency, you can use as following:

( $self.o_no_input_xxxx = 'your characteristic name',

$self.o_no_input_xxxx = 'your characteristic name')

if o_vbap_klmeng specified.

The characteristic o_vbap_klmeng should be defined.

Hi Amy

The requirement is not possible. As we don't have any particular table where we can restrict the variant characteristic value change.

Hi,,

in the characteristic goto additional data tab,

you have a field called not ready for input.

you select this when the value in this characteristic come by calculation based on the previous selection.

that field will be greyed out.

OR

u can even select the no display check box,

by selecting this u cant see the characteristic in the list,, it will give u a popup before leaving the screen.

for this the char has to be a required field.

OR

if any of this is not working then may be u can try out with authorization management.

thanks
