Change user status of contract order VA42

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

We have a requirement where whenever user changes the quantity in transaction VA42 user status(Header->status) should be changed to BLK(Blocked).

We already had a workflow in place where whenever new contract order is created by default user status is BLK then concerned person approves the order through transaction SBWP and status then changes to 'REL' (Released)

Now the requirement is for already released order if user changes the quantity then contract order should again changes to status BLK.

I had searched for the user exits but had not found any.

Please suggest the way to implement this.

Hi ,

you can use the Function module " STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN"

call this function module in the change exit for sales order and try to force the User status when Quantity is changed

We used the same function module for Sales orders, This should work for contracts as well

try and seek the help of ABAPer to put the code

thanks
