Hi Vijai,

therefore SAP supports different status types. So I would suggest to set in TA DC10 for status 'in preparation' status type P (primary status, see below) and to define 'in preparation' as previous document status for 'Client approval'.

Best regards, Daniel

Document status type:

Key which represents the features of a document status.

Use

There is not usually an entry for the status type.

If you want to represent special features of status, you can choose from the following status types:

Initial status (I)

This status is set when a new document is created and can be linked into a cycle. This means that the document can be given this status again at a later point in time.

Primary status (P)

This status is only set when a new document is created. It cannot be set at a subsequent stage of processing.

Locked status (S)

Most of the data in the document info record can no longer be changed.

Temporary status (T)

This status is used to log events, for example, an interim printout can be logged.

The current status of the document is not changed.

The system sets the following stuses automatically:

Original in work (O)

The system sets this status when you choose Original applicationfile -> Change.

The system makes the following checks:

Is the user authorized to use the function?

Is there a status with status type O for the document type?

If this is the case, the system carries out all the necessary checks for the status network (such as checking the previous status).

If the system checks determine that this status is not allowed, you cannot process the document.

Archive status (A)

The system sets this status when you choose Archive -> Check into archive.

The system makes the same checks as for status type "O".

If the status cannot be set, the document cannot be archived.

Check-in status (C)

The system sets this status all original application files of document info are in a secure storage area.
