Action Control During Vehicle Processing
You can use this function to map your business processes. You define which vehicle actions can follow one after the other during vehicle processing and which changes to the status of the vehicle are involved in this.
Example
Caution
Prerequisites
In Customizing for Vehicle Management System (VMS), you have defined actions and the vehicle status under Control Data.
Features
You can use the primary and secondary Action Control to map processes that are independent of each other, for example the Vehicle Procurement or Vehicle Sales processes.
You can enhance the primary and secondary processes with different action controls. This means that processes can differ depending on the sales organization or vehicle model, for example.
Activities
In Customizing under Logistics Execution > Vehicle Management System > Control Data > Define Action Controls and Define Action Matrices, define the following:
- Action controls that you require for your business processes during vehicle processing.
- An action grid, or matrix, for each action control
In this grid, you define which action is allowed for which vehicle status and to which status the action converts the vehicle. This enables you to map your internal business process, and ensures that users can only execute those actions for a vehicle that are permitted at the relevant vehicle status.
