IW21 - always receiving system message "Do you want to specify new dates"

Hi,

We're working on SAP upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6.0. We're using PM module.

In ECC6.0 when creating a work order using IW21, the system always asks " Do you want to specify new dates? This is referring to the required start Date and Required end Date. This should automatically default the date into the end date field based on the riority level that had been selected as is the case in the current older version. These dates are then copied over to the work order page. Please advise me how to stop priority change pop up message " Do you want to specify new dates?

Thanks.

Hello Saeed,

yes, I'd suggest looking at it with an ABAPer.

I would not expect a Transaction/screen variant to effect SAP code (which is nmore or less what the message is telling you). There are some instances where screen variants are not effective as Application settings take priority but personally I haven't experienced a message like that when creating Transaction/Screen variants.

Have a look at it with an ABAPer, they may be able to help with the screen variant or if that fails, they can almost certainly find an exit and suppress the message.

Thanks Nick.

Message from SAP is simple modification required to avoid the popup in the following

code:

(LIWO8U02)

IF i_flg_popup = 'X'.

CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'

EXPORTING

titlebar = ' Änderung Priorität '(p01)

text_question =

Just comment out the relevant portion of the code or clear the

i_flg_popup variable before the IF statment.

The default response to the popup is 'Yes' so the dates will still

be recalculated without further code changes.

There is a user-exit (QQMA0018 in function EXIT_SAPLIQS0_005) that

could be used to adjust the dates. However this does not allow you

to influence the popup.

Issue is closed

Saeed,

just possibly you might be able to suppress using a Tx variant. (Config.) Tx SHD0, step through Tx IW21 and see if you have an option to suppress the pop-up.

I'm not sure of which exit/BADI an ABAPer would use.

Thanks Nick,

While creating variant via SHD0 I am getting following message:

Message no. TR015

Diagnosis

Object R3TR SCVI M1 is an object from the SAP namespace.

This SAP System is delivered with this namespace.

System Response

The object in this SAP System can only be created in an SAP package.

In particular, the object cannot be created in a local package.

Procedure

Only create the object after consulting SAP.

Only create the object in an SAP package.

Do I need to consult SAP ? or If I am creating the objcet then which local package I need to select ? Is this for ABAPer to do?

Thanks again.

No std way to suppress this.

Thanks Nick,

Any idea how ABAP can resolve this.

Note: I am getting error while assigning points.
