Symptom
When customer maintain a custom field in app "Plan Customer Project" and save,
the value of the custom field is updated to related Sales Order - Services,
but it's not flowing into the Sales Order table VBAK.
This will cause the custom field is not updated in the sequent Billing Document Request.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- In app "Custom Logic", you have defined extension fields for the business context Engagement project.
and implemented extension point SD_SLS_MODIFY_HEAD. - In "Plan Customer Projects", under Information tab, you adapt the custom field and activate it.
- Maintain the custom field and save.
- In VA03, you observe the custom field is saved under Custom Fields of sales order header.
- However, the custom field is not updated in table VBAK.
Cause
Not every project change triggers a sales order header change, so the extension point is not always called.
Resolution
The field can be maintained directly as sales order header field which is under Project->Billing tab.
