Basic Finish Date and Priority issues on work order.

[former_member769664]

Create Notification : IW21

I can change the required Start date and required End date.

But the issue is that this function does work on work orders.

The dialog box won't come out, we can't change the basic date automatically.
But the basic finish date can be changed when we filled the priority in the selection screen.

The basic finish date will change if you choose a priority value before you enter the next screen.

You will see the basic finish date had changed as per priority. And you can't change the date any more whatever the priority is.

That's the issue.

I think this is the user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_012 issue. The user exit is wrapped by CUSTOMER_PRIOK_0120. Inside CUSTOMER_PRIOK_0120, there is a check for priority (PRIOK).

But I am not too sure about this, because I am not an ABAP.

Please anyone can help me with this.

Thanks.

Albert,

Sorry, but I also don't know SAP's reasoning for having two different sets of functionality.

I also would have expected that the order and notification priority would function in the same way, and would also have a separate user-exit to manipulate the priority value..

Thanks, Peter. Is there anyway we can contact SAP company ? maybe we can drop them an email or something

You can open an OSS Message to SAP, but what are you expecting from them?

I want to know what is the purpose of this design, and what is the significance in the application of real business scenarios?

Albert,

You are correct that user-exit IWO10012 (Maintenance order: Priority handling on central header) can be used to change the priority in the PM/CS order. This user-exit calls function module EXIT_SAPLCOIH_012.

What is the code inside EXIT_SAPLCOIH_012?

Actually I want to know why SAP make this different between notifications and orders. What's the purpose ?
