Number of Documents per Document Status
The table on the left side shows the number of documents by document status. The number of field changes is based on a comparison of the following tables:
SD Interface | SD Document |
|---|---|
Header: /WMD/FP_IFSDI | Header: /WMD/FP_SDHD |
Line item: /WMD/FP_IFSDI | Line item: /WMD/FP_SDIT |
In the interface tables on the left side, the data is transferred directly from xFlow Interface Windows — no changes have been made here. The tables on the right side contain the final values as they were edited in the xFlow Interface SAP. These values may have been changed. As soon as a document is opened in xFlow Interface SAP or is processed, possibly by a program entered in the record-type customizing, the data is written to the tables in the columns on the right.
A comparison between the left and right tables allows tracking of differences that have arisen from the entry of the document up to the point that it has been changed or processing has been finalized. If changes are made, therefore, they can be tracked in the comparison of the two tables.
