"Incompletion log" in sales document

[Former Member]

Hi,

May I know if we can control the incompletion log. ( va02 -- edit -- "incompletion log" ) based on the values of the fields.

I have a hard stop at line item level while entering materials for all the item category except 'ZTXT'. It shows the log in "incompletion log".

Even though the document is incomplete with this particular item category, it should not show it under "incompletion log".

Do we have any program that can do this.

Thank you

Shouldn't this be controlled via config? You should check the transaction OVA2 where the in completion is defined.

Yes, the fields can be controlled through config from OVA2, but I have to control for the values of the fields.

For item category, we can control through OVA2, but for different types of item categories, I dont think we can do it here. eg: for ZOST, I need the incompletion log, but for ZOBO, i dont need the incompletion log.

In this case you should not control this specific field via config. Instead you need to add the logic in one of the user exits based on whether the field is at the header or item.

In order to manually add an entry to the in-completion log you need to update the table XVBUV.

Hi Vikram,

Yes, I think you are right that we have to write the logic under the user exit.This is something at the item level.

I have an empty customer material number for item category ztxt. This shows an incomplete log like:

Item  short description   MissingData.

Could you please tell me from where these three fields are getting fetched from or is this an "incompleting log table" that we are seeing. I have to clear this complete record.

For item category = ztxt , clear the record.

Can you help me in this second part where I can clear the record.

The incompletion log should be filed by standard SAP based on settings in OVA2. You should ask your functional to remove this config and code the same for the specific item category in the user exit.

In order to find where/when this is populated, I would suggest you to add a watchpoint on VBUV or XVBUV and see how this specific entry is populated.

I dont think you should clear this record but instead remove the config which creates this incompleteness but for test purposes try the user exit save prepare in MV45AFZZ and clear the specific entry from XVBUV.
