How to change status profile after changing functional location category.

[Former Member]

Every functional location category is linked to status profile which includes multiple user statuses.

After changing functional location category, status profile is not automatically updated.

It shows message to manually update status profile but the field is greyed out.

How to update status profile?

I did change the status profile on one of the PM objects some years back - we used a standard function module.And it didnt cause any issues. I will try and find it again..

Update: we used function moule STATUS_PROFILE_CHANGE, then BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT

Make sure you thoroughly test.

Thanks Paul..

Still is there any possibility to change status profile manually through some program code?

Hi,

It is not possible to change the status profile after user status values have been set. This is because the already set values may not match any revised status profile thus leading to inconsistency.

Status profile can only be changed if no status value has been set.
