Hi,

Thank you for the response. But the link sent by you is not of much help.

It says that it is not recommended to change the project definition and also mentioned that it requires coding mask change. But we did not expclicitely set any coding mask. Can you please provide some more information on this.

Hi,

We have created a project. Since the project definition was given wrongly, we want to modify the project definition. From configaration point of view, we have not set specifically any thing for project coding mask. Also this field is grey.

Can any one let me know how to modify the definition.

Thank you for the response. I tested in Quality server and could able to modify the project definition using CJ07 t-code. But could you please let me know whether any issues arise from FI/CO point of view.

Further to my response in thread

I tried to simulate the effect of changed WBS number on FI postings and reports. Carried out below steps:

1. Created a WBS A

2. Posted an FI documet onto this WBS A. Document posted was 100

3. Changed the WBS number from A to B

4. Displayed the FI document 100, the WBS element now appears as B (instead of A which was referred during posting)

5. Executed a report for WBS B, journal values are visible.

We are changing the external number alone and this doesn't effect the internal number generated by the system.

Let's see others view on this.

Hi,

Yes as suggested by Srinivas, the FI/CO will take the numbers generated by the system.

But if the Project is the account assignment to any sales order/document, then in that need to modify that manually.

Please Reward points if satisfied.

thanks..
