Symptom
There's the need to prevent the MRP run if the sales order is still in approval.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
This is currently a missing functionality in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
Resolution
To block the MRP run for Sales Orders in a certain state (e.g. ’In Approval’) is a feature request which was already accepted and it's planned into the roadmap for long term.
However, there's a workaround available for this need: check the blog Stop requirement transfer when sales order is in approval | SAP Community.
