Milestone confirmation - not confirming the previous setup times.

Dear SAP gurus,

I want to confirm setup time on a previous operation (0040) automatically by doing a Milestone confirmation on the next operation (0060).

Setup is defined in 0040, Machine and Labor are in (0060). Reason is split of capacity planning and costing.

I want to do one confirmation in 0060 and wanted 0040 to be done (and hence set-up) automatically.

I tested 0040 with values = '2' or '3 , or ' ' (confirmation required, not possible, possible but not required.

and 0060 with value = '1' in the control key.

0040 is not showing a CNF status, it stays in REL status,

though 0060 is in MILE status, with order header as CNF.

What am I missing?

Thank you!
