User Exit in system(ME51N) that until WBS is released, PR should not be created

[former_member195427]

Hi Experts,

               I am a functional Consultant.I need to put a User exit in the screen of ME51N (Manual PR) to check that if WBS or Network is not released system should not allow to create PR.

The logic which I have thought of is given below:

{ IF ‘EBAN-KNTTP” = P or Q or N

CHECK Field “PS_POSID” (IF EBAN-KNTTP=Q)

CHECK Field “NPLNR” (IF EBAN-KNTTP=N)

CHECK Field “NPLNR” & “PS_POSID”                                                         (IF EBAN-KNTTP=P)

GET “OBJNR”                                                                                        (from “PROJ” or “PRPS” or “AFVC”)

     AND CHECK

{IF “ISTAT”= I00002 (from “JCDS”)

         ALLOW PR Creation

(The above loop is to be checked if field ‘EBAN-KNTTP’ is either P or Q)

ELSE

      “Error Message” “WBS or Project is not Released”

AND

{IF “ISTAT”=I0002 (Check from “JEST”)

              ALLOW PR Creation

(The above loop is to be checked if field ‘EBAN-KNTTP’ is N)

ELSE “Error Message” “Network is not Released”

END IF

END IF

END IF

      }}}

Please suggest what other things do I need to discuss with our developer or how can I put this logic in the system, if I goes forward?

Please help.

Thanks & Regards

Could you not get the same result by forbidding business transactions like RMBA "Material purchase requisition" when status is not released

Check via transaction BS33/BS23, the current Customizing may look like :
  

System statuses influencing the process:

I0001 CRTD Created                       permits

I0002 REL Released                      permits

I0013 DLT Deletion indicator            prohibited

I0042 PREL Partially released            permits

I0043 LKD Locked                        prohibited

Hi Raymond,

               Thanks for your response.The business does not want to go through user status control and authorization check on them instead they prefer to go via User exit only. However,  I checked Transaction BS23 and the screen shown is as follows:

Please suggest which check box do I need to select here to address ny issue.

Hi Ankur,

I wont advice to change BS22 settings. You need to convince business for user status option, why are they opposing? There can be a default user status which blocks PR assignment and this status will get reset when user releases WBS. You can achieve this via user status and users wont see any process change or additional steps. If standard SAP can provide good solution, why should we consider development?

Shrikant,

             No one can negate the points you have mentioned and I have discussed it in detail in PS forum. But due to some unavoidable reasons I have to adopt a different path other than user status.And I can not think of a better option than user exit.

IF you can suggest any other way , please suggest.

Also, I seek help of developers to suggest me on the same.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Ankur,

In that case you have following options:

1. As Raymond suggested, forbid business transaction RMBA in BS22. Open BS22, double click on CRTD status, then page down till RMBA or you can enter RMBA in the small window at left bottom of screen. Make this busniess transaction forbidden at CRTD status and test.

2. With the help of BADI 'ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST', check during PR save whether WBS is released or not. You can issue custom warning or error message. Take OBJNR for WBS from PRPS table and get status from JEST table.

Any of the above options will solve your issue. I would still like to know why client doesnt want user status. Please share if possible, it will be interesting to know.
