Production Order Object number

[former_member184595]

Hi ,

Can anyone explain me what is the use of OBject number corresponding to a Production ORder. What is the use of object number,why do we need this again along with Production order number. I can find the object number in AUFK table along with Order number.

thanks in advancce

This is due to internal SAP data structuring and organization. Unless you need to directly read data from the database tables, this is invisible and not of interest to a user.

Aditya,

In addition to Mario's comments this kind of fields (which is not visible at transaction level and of no use to end user) used for Table linkage. As per your concern; Object number in AUFK table has link to Work center table CRHD (may be). As a matter of fact SAP has relational database in which data related to a transactional or master data object (for example, production order) is maintained in different tables with a preset of linkage field like Object number (as in your case).

Hi,

Object no. is used not only in production order. you can find it in Batch, Inspection lot, Purchase order etc also.

As explained by mario this is internal sap data structering. In many tables say for example JEST data are stored with reference to this Object no.
