How to remove unwanted Items from a Schedule Agreement?

[Former Member]

Hi All,

This question is with respect to Schedule Agreement Items which are outdated but still visible in SNC(Web UI), in case of huge SA's (with more than 500-1000 line items) it causes lots of concerns in processing and difficulty for the planners.

We would like to get ride of these SA items (unwanted/out-dated) by removing them from the ECC (back-end) systems so that they are not transferred to SNC at all.

Can we run a standard program to do a mass clean up of all such SA's? Is there any Standard method to update these SA with only active item codes?

Thanks,

Sadiq

Hi Mohammed,

In  SNC, you can run program "/SCA/DM_BOL_REL_DELETE" to delete old releases from system. In the variant, you set "Number of releases to be kept = 1".

Why are you transferring all releases from ERP? In normal process, only latest release is tranferred to SNC.

Hi Shekhar,

Thanks for your response, we transfer schedule line data on the latest release basis only as per the standard process.

But in our case the obsolete data(Product codes not being procured at present) are still visible in the SNC web UI under "Due list for Purchasing Documents" when the planner/vendor enters the SA(purchase document number) in the search criteria and executes. This is because the planners while planning in back-end SAP systems at present are not following a process of removing the Product(Item) code line and adding a new one against it, rather they just add a new line(with changed/new product code) and do the planning. The business is working to fix this concern but it is required to clean up the obsolete data first.

Please suggest if you have come across such situations with huge out-dated/inactive product lines in various active SA's  for different plant-vendor combinations.

Thanks & Regards,

Sadiq
