analysis version, the system offers the versions available in a display
frame. Select one of these versions.
Note that when you delete marked entries, you can only create new ones
after saving.
If the system does not propose any versions, enter a central version if
necessary in Customizing for Controlling, and mark it for use as the
results analysis version in WIP calculation and results analysis.
