B.03 - SO Types - Config vs Used

Configured Sales Order types that are not in use are costly to maintain, and they may pose a risk if they are accessed inappropriately. This workflow identifies unused Sales Order types by reading the VBAK and TVAK tables on the specified SAP system. Unused Sales Order types should be reviewed periodically to determine whether they should be removed.

The results are stored in the Results_B03 Table dataset, which has the following columns:

Column Description
AUART Sales document type.
BEZEI Risk category.
CRMGR Sales document description.
