Load ID Validity Date Assignment in Sales Contract:

Sales contracts are created with reference to another contract. If the contracts are TAS relevant, then the load Id would be automatically copied to the TAS Screen. This can be done by setting automatic Load ID assignment for the control structure type in the TAS customization and also can be assigned through USER Exits. Customers normally follow the method of implementing the user exit EXIT_SAPLOIK7_130 or EXIT_SAPLOIK7_110 to assign the load id.When the load id is assigned, the validity of the load id is copied from the contract. In case the period of the contract is changed, then the validity of the Load Id should be manually checked for correctness or done through a user exit if no manual intervention is expected. There is a check in the LOIK9F01 Form adjust_validation_period to check for the start date and end date of the load id. The load id details are stored in the gt_xoik01 table. This table is filled through the user exits or on the click of TAS button if automatic load id assignment is active. In case there is no ALA done, then the global table is filled when we assign a load id manually. Once the load Id is assigned (in any form), the first dates are copied as the load Id validity dates. Any further manipulation to the contract start or end date should be a date between the first given date range. Otherwise the date (start or end date) which lies outside the first date range would not be copied to the TAS Screen for load id validity. The system gives a warning/ information message that the dates have been changed. The user needs to change the dates manually or, this should be handled through an exit as the case may be suitable or the business.

Change log in shipment does not appear.

Some fields in the shipment might not appear in the shipment change log. This could be because of the change log field not set for the domain in the table for that particular field. The chage log should be set at the domain level in the table and once this is checked, the log would show the entry if changed.
