Hi
We have a requirement in our project that the system should populate the Master WBS Actual Start Date when the user changes the status to Released.
The issue is that the actual start date is disabled & will only get enabled for changes once the WBS is released and save. Hence our program doesn’t allow the population of this date during the release.
Has anybody come across such scenario? Can someone tell me how this can be handled?
Thanks in advance

Can you pls tell us the the purpose of maintaining the same date in two places? I belive you are not using networks in your structure.
Use the enhancement at time of SAVE of WBS element.
Refer to below link http://scn.sap.com/thread/2020988
At time of SAVE, check for the status of WBS element and then trigger your action.
Alternatively, you can have a batch program which will look at the REL status of WBS elements with in predefined time frame and sets the actual start date using function module. This can reduce the load on structure as on every release/ save system avoids hitting the exit.
Once you click REL and then try to SAVE, the status REL will be available in structures for triggering any functionality. Go debugging while SAVING the WBS, you can see the status set on WBS as REL. Also you may trigger an even on SAVE, which will set the actual start date on WBS.
Other work around is RELEASE the WBS and save it. Run a batch program with frequency which will pick up the data of all WBS elements which are released, using a FM you can now change the start date.
You can check these with your technical developer.
Hi Dhwni,
You can complete "Actual Start Date" when WBS is released but before saving. Could you recheck this?
You can develop your requeriment creating an event that is executed when the WBS is released ( for me the best option)
In a BADI that is executed when WBS is released.
You can do it using the standard substitutions ( but you need to develop the routine that check when the WBS has been released)

Hi Clara & Seshagiri,
Thanks for the reply.
My ABAPer have tried various enhancement spots, BADI etc to meet this requirement. However there was no success.
@ Clara: What do you mean by "You can complete "Actual Start Date" when WBS is released but before saving" ? Can you elaborate?
Thanks
