Setting Up User-Defined Codes for Engineering Change Management

You set up UDCs to use with Engineering Change Management:

User-Defined Code	Description
Work Order/ECO Type table (00/TY)	This code indicates the type of ECO, such as G for government change and R for rework.
Order Type table (48/OT)	This code enables you to distinguish each work order record in the Work Order Master File table (F4801) from other records with different work order types. For example, you do not use the same document type and work order type to represent both an equipment work order and a manufacturing work order. The relationship between the document and its related work order type is defined in the Document Type Maintenance program (P40400).
Work Order Priority table (00/PR)	This code indicates the priority of the ECO, such as H for high priority and 3 for normal priority.
Work Order Status table (00/SS)	This code indicates the status of the ECO, such as EM for emergency and A for approved.
Phase In table (40/PH)	This code specifies how to phase in ECOs, such as IMD for immediate and AVL for as available.
Existing Disposition table (40/ED)	This code specifies what to do with existing items that are affected by the ECO, such as CNL for cancel, RWK for rework, UAI for use as is, and SCP for scrap.
Engineering Change Reason table (40/CR)	This code indicates the reasons for defined ECOs, such as CC for customer change and RF for federal requirements.
ECO Next Revision Levels table (30/NR)	This code indicates the sequence of revision levels that are assigned to ECO transactions.
