Function Module: MD_SALES_ORDER_STATUS_REPORT

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am looking for an alternative to function module "MD_SALES_ORDER_STATUS_REPORT". We are running an extract to pull production orders. This function module is being called for every production order and causes a huge performance issue. We need an alternative to this FM to extract the lower level prod orders.

Please let me know if there are any alternatives available.

Hi Anurita,

did you read the comment inside this function module?

* Rel. 4.70: new parameter MEMORY_ID

* with the following new function:

* if MEMORY_ID = 'ABBL' and DATA_IN_MEMORY = 'X' then

* the order report takes the planning situation (MDPSX) from the

* memory buffer. If they are not found in the memory then the

* order report reads from database and puts the result in the buffer.

* Useful for performance improvement in MD04,MD07,...

* if order report is done multiple times during the transacation.

* In MD04,MD05,MD06,MD07,.. this function can be switched on/off with a

* flag in the user parameters.

* The data is taken from the buffer only

* for Make-to-stock. Sales order segment / project segments are

* always read from the database.

* memory_id = ABBL --> use the buffer for stock req. list

* memory_id = PLHS --> use the buffer from simulative planning

* (old functionality used in sim. MD02,...)

* for compatibility the default is PLHS (which only makes sense

* in simulative MD02).

This could help.

Regards,

Clemens
