3756960 - Repetitive manufacturing confirmation API does not support posting work center activity values

Symptom

The Repetitive Manufacturing Confirmation API : REPETITIVEMFGCONFIRMATION_0001 does not expose fields to post work center activities.

Environment

Product: SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Try to create a repetitive manufacturing confirmation via the OData V4 service (REPETITIVEMFGCONFIRMATION_0001)  and attempt to provide values for the work center activities.
  2. Observe that no fields are available to input these activity quantities .

Cause

By design, the repetitive manufacturing confirmation API does not support input operations for the work center activity fields. Activity quantities are calculated automatically from the confirmed quantity and routing.

Resolution

  1. When creating confirmations via the repetitive manufacturing confirmation API, set Processing Type to “A” so the system calculates activity quantities based on the confirmed quantity and routing.
  2. Do not attempt to provide manual or deviating activity values; the API does not support posting these activity fields.
  3. If posting manual/deviating activity quantities is a required capability as exception, submit an feature request via the customer influence portal so it can be evaluated for future releases.
