Q & A

  • What is the purpose of copy control in SAP sales documents?

    -Copy control in SAP automates the transfer of data between different sales documents, reducing manual data entry, minimizing errors, and ensuring smooth document flow between related sales documents.

  • How does copy control help with document visibility?

    -Copy control ensures that related documents are traceable. For example, you can track the delivery document by the sales order number or trace the entire flow back from an accounting document to the original sales document.

  • What types of documents are typically involved in copy control setups?

    -Copy control setups usually involve sales documents such as inquiries, quotations, orders, and billing documents, with data being copied from one document to another, such as from a quotation to an order or from a billing document to a sales document.

  • What are the three levels of data involved in copy control customization?

    -The three levels of data involved in copy control customization are the header level, item level, and schedule line level.

  • What is the significance of the 'data transfer routine' in copy control?

    -The 'data transfer routine' defines how data is copied from the source document to the target document, specifying which fields (e.g., header data, business data) are transferred between the documents.

  • What does the 'copy requirement' field control in copy control customization?

    -The 'copy requirement' field determines when data should be copied from the source to the target document. It ensures that copying only occurs under specific conditions, such as when customer data matches between documents.

  • What does the 'complete reference' checkbox do in copy control?

    -The 'complete reference' checkbox ensures that once the source document is referenced, it is marked as complete. This prevents further copying of the source document to other target documents.

  • How does the 'item number' checkbox affect copy control?

    -The 'item number' checkbox ensures that the item numbers in the source document are copied to the target document, maintaining consistency in item data across documents.

  • What customization is possible at the item level in copy control?

    -At the item level, you can customize the transfer of item-specific data, such as quantities, pricing, product selections, and handling rejected items. You can also control how items from the source document are transferred to the target document.

  • What is the role of the 'schedule line' in copy control, and how is it configured?

    -The schedule line in copy control defines when scheduling data (like delivery dates) is copied from the source document to the target document. This setting can be customized to ensure the correct scheduling information is transferred during the copy process.
