freezing of an order

[Former Member]

1. Created a sales order by sales rep.

2. logistics wants to freeze (cause of some business constraint) that order for next 30 days so that change in sales order is not possible....

How can we handle such scenario...

Hi,

What do you mean by Freezing sales order. Do you mean it should not allow any changes & order status should be complete/ open?

What about already passed requirement? Does this requirement should not show in MD04?

What could be the reason from the logistics - why they want to hold the order?

"Freezing of an order"- carries many other questions needs to be answered.

Doesnt Reason for rejection support for the same- which you can remove & process the order as normal order.

Hi

This can be handled through a user exit. Create a new blocking reason (delivery block or billing block depending on your subsequent activity) and apply this block in the sales order either automatically based on certain criteria or apply it manually. When any changes are made to the sales order, system should check for the block and if it exists, should throw an error saying that sales order changes are not allowed. When the block is removed (this is also a change in sales order and should be carefully handled in the code), system should allow for changes to that sales order.

Thanks,
