Formula for a char. in the insp. plan

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I made the settings to set a formula for a char.

1. control indicator make it formula

2. enter the forumla like C00010*c00020 and check the calculate formula checkbox,

but the issue that I have is, my users are asking if there is a way to have the char. refering from a different operation, what I mean is, take a char. from operation 10 and multiple that with operation 20 char. and then the result in operation 30 char. Did anyone have this type of scenario, does SAP support this with a user exit or something like that, I know we can get a function module written but i want to make sure if we can handle this type of sceario with that code.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks.

No. Standard SAP does not support formulas across operations. You would need to develop a custom value to use in the formula.

I would create a Z1 and in the formula it would be Z10010. Z1 would have code behind it that would retrieve the mean value from characteristic 0010 of the previous operation.
