You can either enter the requested text or select it from the list of end of stage reasons. A list of reasons is available for each step. This list both comes from the setup of miscellaneous table 421 and miscellaneous table 420, based on the following principle:
- Miscellaneous table 421 contains the list of after-sales stages, each identified by a code.
- Miscellaneous table 420 contains the list of after-sales reasons. In the setup of this table, you can specify the after-sales stage one specific reason applies to. The stage code is specified at the Short description level of the reason.
Example:
- Table 421 -After-sales stages:
Code | Title | Short title | In before-sales |
A1 | Specifications drafted | Specifications | No |
B1 | Development | Dev. | No |
C1 | Modifications | Modifications | No |
D1 | Project end | Stop | No |
- Table 420 - After-sales reasons:
Code | Title | Short title |
M1 | Specifications validated | A1 |
M2 | Development completed | B1 |
M3 | Corrections carried out | C1 |
M4 | Customer presentation | C1 |
On entering reasons with a 'Complete' stage:
- For the C1 - Modifications stage, the list of suggested reasons is as follows:
- 'Corrections carried out'
- 'Customer presentation'
- For the A1 - Drafting specifications stage, only the reason 'Specifications validated' is set up so as to apply to this stage. It is thus selected automatically.
- For the D1 - Project end stage, no reason is set up so as to apply to this stage. No list is therefore suggested upon entry.
