this will trigger when you click on save button in sales order

Go to MV45AFZZ in SE38 and search for these subroutines. You will find the documentation as part of the subroutine. When you get a message that document number xxxx is created, then you know that the document is created successfully.

Hi Ramu,

1. USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE . : If you want to make the validation you use this user exit and this is the last time to do the changes.

USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT : If you want ot modify the code then you can use it for this userexit.

2. User exit is a form of enhancement. There are other types of enhancements also like BADI's.

3.Look at CDHDR and CDPOS table. If you find your sales document number in these tables, it means that the document has been posted.

Reward if useful.

Regards

Aneesh.

USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT

This userexit can be used to save data in additional tables when a document is saved.

USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE

This userexit can be used for changes or checks, before a document is saved.

A user exit is nothing but an enhancement. In order to code in a user exit, you first

have to create and activate a project with the enhancements. Look at CMOD and SMOD transactions.

Sales document posted message will appear on the status bar whenever it is posted.

Rgds,
