Prerequisites

Use

You can use this function to trigger a sequence of multiple elementary actions, to avoid executing each elementary action manually.

Interlinked actions in DBM use the same functions as the Vehicle Management System (VMS), Warranty Processing (WTY) and Just-in-Time Processing (JIT).
VMS interlinked actions are available in the transaction Vehicle Master (/DBM/VM).
Note: You must not use VMS interlinked actions in the DBM order. Instead, you should use the options provided in Customizing for Dealer Business Management (DBM) under Order > Order Control. In other words, do not use interlinked VMS actions in these Customizing settings.
VMS interlinked actions are integrated in the DBM vehicle APIs, and thus also in the corresponding vehicle RFC functions.

VMS interlinked actions consist of more than one elementary action. When the system executes an interlinked action, it starts the elementary actions contained in the interlinked action one after the other in exactly the same sequence that is defined in the interlinked action.
You can update the individual object data of a DBM vehicle from a VMS action.
You can execute VMS interlinked actions from the DBM vehicle RFC functions in Customizing for Dealer Business Management (DBM) under Interface Framework > Function Modules > RFC DBM Vehicle.
You can interlink elementary actions independently of whether they are primary or secondary actions. For example, you can interlink ORD1(Create Purchase Order; primary action) and CUOR(Create Sales Order; secondary action). It is not possible to interlink actions that are already interlinked.

The interlinked action Execute Vehicle Procurement could consist of the following elementary actions:
