You can put in EXIT MV45AFZZ

If you wan to change the status when the SO is SAVE, you can put the code in form USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE

The following is example for changing status at header level

CALL FUNCTION 'STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN'

EXPORTING

OBJNR = VBAK-OBJNR

USER_STATUS = 'E0001' "Initial Status

SET_INACT = ' '

SET_CHGKZ = 'X'

EXCEPTIONS

OBJECT_NOT_FOUND = 1

STATUS_INCONSISTENT = 2

STATUS_NOT_ALLOWED = 3

OTHERS = 4.

Hi,

Based on which status you would like to update, go to the JEST Table and look for "X" flag, which says which status is currently active.

Reward if helpful
