hi,

here are are the steps to copy control

Copy control can be associated with the transfer of data between the various sales documents from a Quotation to Cash. Thus, copy control forms part of the document flow process. Copy control uses data at the header and schedule line level. Copy control determines which data is to be transferred; a copy control can be set to ensure copying of data at predefined time intervals. Similarly, with copy control one can also specify when to stop the copying process. Copy control is important in another way since it helps in determine whether new prices are used or not.

Dear Freind,

Copy control is very critical for the document flows.

It controls the etire copying from one to another.

Sales process flows from Order to Billing is Controlled by the same.

If you are using a development server then it would be advisable to copy the standard documents and then make it relavent for coping.

for eg: If you copy OR standard order to ZOR. then you make it relavent for copy control.

Thats how you will se all the item categories determination and scehedule nie determination copied into your order.

Check the setting for the standard processes .

in VTAA,VTFL, VTLL and others make changes if required to meet your requirement.

reward points if helpful,

Hi,

You can use an existing sales document as the basis for a subsequent document. For example, if you want to submit a quotation on the basis of an inquiry, you can create the quotation with reference to the inquiry. In this case, all data is copied from the inquiry to the quotation.

You can define which sales document types can be used as reference documents. You can also control which data you wish to be copied. For example:

Header data, Item data , Partner data , Pricing data, Schedule line data.
