Milestone confirmation
Created by Dora Simon, last modified on Feb 19, 2016
Purpose
In this section I will describe the main logic of milestone confirmation.
Overview
I made examples to illustrate the system behaviour in case of milestone confirmation.
Transaction CO11

8/31/2017 Milestone confirmation - ERP Manufacturing (PP) - SCN Wiki
>>> in CO14 we can see, that both of the operations have been confirmed and the milestone flags are displayed here
>>> if we confirm operation 4, the confirmation works until the next milestone which is operation 2 in our example (because control key PP03 is set as milestone)

It is allowed to confirm operation 5 manually, so we confirm first operation 5 manually (gets a status: PCNF. partially confirmed) and then confirm operation 6
>>> the status of operation 5 has not changed to CNF (confirmed)!
>>> if a manual confirmation was done before milestone, then the milestone logic is broken for this operation (see the SAP Help documentation link below)
>>> it can be also needed to check the timestamp, which confirmation was the first (Transaction CO14-details -> Administration tab -> Entered on)
