COPA Derivation rule not running in background

434 Views

Hi all

We are encountering a strange problem during derviation in document posting & creation of assets.

We have added a characteristic value Material group to the profitability segment and have added a derivation rule in KEDR based on order.

The rule is if the value of order number is filled then the material group is assigned a value.

Order number Assigned Material Group

Z0000000001 = 001210

The problem is that we have to manually go into the PA segment and click the derivation button OR just press enter to get the derivation working.

If we do not access the PA segment area then the derivation is not carried out in the background.

I have tried searching for notes and for some relevancy on the forums.

I have also taken screen-shots and uploaded them, please view in order.

The PA segment after pressing the button

We require that the derivation runs in the background after we enter the line item details. The system is not picking the derivation if we directly post the document without checking the PA segment.

If there is some BADI or user exit we could use to manually replace the COPA characteristics explicitly at document posting, please let me know

Thank You
