Status Graph - Status and release management

[abhishek_gupta2]

Hello There ,

I was using the status and release management for the document status network .

The issue when I configure 5-6 status , the graph does not shows in the correct sequence . My previous status and next status are all messed up .

Do you know how to fix this issue . It seems to be a waste feature if status network is not shown properly .

Advices please !!

Regards ,

Abhishek

Hi,

thee graph is unfortunately only depicting status in ALPHABETICAL order. So first of all a complex status network can not be represented, and for a unidirectional status network I recommend to use status like 1-Draft, 2-For Review, 3-Approved, 4-Released, or similar.

Hi Ulf ,

  We have also same problem..

  When Status schemas has be shown in other languages for example German , this recommendation may not work.

Can we expect any correction note or Improvement Note from SAP ?

Thanking you ,

Hi Satya and Abishek,

I understand your observations completely. I can't promise anything here as this is a generic feature in Status Management used in all PLM objects. But I'll let development management know about your feature request.

Hi Abhishek,

   The status network is not for displaying Graph, because of simple reason status can be parallel and that can not be configured in webdynpro Ui element. ( at least when it was getting developed at Ehp6 ).

If you want to know next status and previous status of current status then there is an option call " Explore status schema " they will show you next and previous status .

Hi Ulf,

Any object can have multiple parallel status, so it was not possible at WD ABAP to show as parallel status, hence we have option called " Explore status schema " which w
