Requirement date in a maintenance order

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

We sometimes have to add a new component in an old released maintenance order.
But, requirement date is set by SAP to the basic start date of the maintenance order, potentially in a far past.

Then, the reservation can hardly be found in MB26 transaction because of a too old date.
What should we do so that SAP sets requirement date to today (instead of basic start date)

Thanks for your help !

Hi Philippe,

I am aware of a option available in production order " Lead-time offset for operation"  here when you insert a component directly in production order and its requirement date differ then production order start date , you can input value in this field and it move ahead the requirement date as well as reservation date.

please check this option , hope it will help you.

Thanks

Hi Ritesh,

Thanks for your answer.

You're right, I've found such a field in CO02 transaction.

But unluckily, I did not find such a field in IW32 transaction (transaction for maintenance order).

Moreover, I'd like requirement date to be set automatically to today, not after having entried an offset manually.
