This function enables you to control the business processes during vehicle processing. The execution of vehicle actions is defined on the basis of the action grids, or matrices, in which it is defined which action is linked with which vehicle status change. You can always execute actions for a selected vehicle.
You can also create additional vehicle actions that meet branding, country-specific process requirements, or both by enhancing the basis of the matrices. See SAP note 903914.
You can execute vehicle actions in the following ways:
- Directly for the vehicle
In the vehicle master record, you can select one of the actions offered. Otherwise, an action is executed using the RFC module. - Implicitly on the basis of the VSS order
Vehicle actions can be triggered by means of order control.
Info title Note In Customizing for VSS, you can define which action the system has to execute when an order of a certain order type is created and deleted or rejected by choosing Order > Order Control > Order Control VMS Extension > Define Table of Criteria for Order Control - VMS Action Determination. For example, the standard system executes action QCUO when a vehicle order (order type 3000) is created and action QDCO when it is deleted.

Action Control for the Vehicle Management System (VMS), which controls the actions for the VSS vehicle, and order control for Vehicle Sales and Service (VSS) interact in the standard system as follows:
As soon as a vehicle is used in a VSS order, the order control takes over control of the next step such as goods issue or invoice creation.
At the same time, the order control also triggers vehicle actions, which ensure that the system updates the vehicle history accordingly and that the links to various documents generated in the background are saved.
You can change the Customizing settings in such a way that VMS action control influences and also controls the order process.Note:
