PO Version Management - how track changes to version relevant fields?

Former Member — Tue, 02 Jul 2013 14:38:59 GMT

Hi,

I have a requirement where in I have to achieve some functionality in ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST~POST method whenever there is a change in version relevant fields of a PO. We have EKKO-REVNO to identify if there is a change in version but this will get updated only once before checking the version completion indicator - meaning REVNO will be incremented as soon as I change any version relevant field but will not increment again untill you check the version completion indicator and make any change after that. I have a list of version relevant fields in the table T166C but it has around 65 entries and it is cumbersome process to identify the changes by comparing each and every field. Are there any other ways to identify changes to version relevant fields of a PO like any counter or so? Or any other better approaches?

Thanks,

Hashim

hello,

did you consider CDHDR and CDPOS.

Consider time range also , take update time from CDHDR

for version changes u can get change document number using following condition

OBJECTCLAS = REVISION

OBJECTID = F(PO number)

changes before UDATE and UTIME for these entries belong to previous version

best regards,

Hi Hashim,

Pls refer below 3 tables for more information :

CDHDR - Header Change

CDPOS - Item Change

EREV - Version Change

The revision changes are available in EREV table. What is available in CDHDR and CDPOS under REVISION class is changes done to EREV fields.

I am looking for a way to track the changes in any of the version triggering fields of the PO.

There seems to be no other way than comparing the values of the version relevant fields. Standard SAP is working in similar ways. The include MM06EFDCM has method HAS_PO_RELEVANT_CHANGE that is used in the standard process to check whether there is any change to any of the version relevant fields. I copied and modified the standard code to fit in my requirement.

Thanks,
