How to change system status of an equipment (IE02)

[former_member184551]

Hi Guys

I have noticed two fm's STATUS_CHANGE_INTERN & STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN but they can only ne used to change the status for notifications, they are not working with equipments. I know how to change the system status for equipments manually (edit->special ser func -> manula transaction) but I dont want to code a bdc for this. Is there anyway i can achieve this through a FM or a BAPI?

Help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Try FM ALM_ME_EQUI_USTATUS_CHANGE

I had to use a BDC.

Hi Sameer,

You can use FM's STATUS_CHANGE_EXTERN and STATUS_CHANGE_INTERN to change the Equipment User and System status. I was searching for a solution to change the status of an Equipment. And I could achieve using these FM's.
