Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCF/CL_DUELIST_MSG020 - You have entered a confirmation status; therefore only POs are displayed ?

  The SAP error message /SCF/CL_DUELIST_MSG020 indicates that you have entered a confirmation status in a transaction, which restricts the display of data to only Purchase Orders (POs). This message typically arises in the context of the SAP Supplier Collaboration Framework or similar modules where confirmations and orders are managed.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the system is designed to show only Purchase Orders when a confirmation status is selected. This is a safeguard to ensure that users are only viewing relevant data that corresponds to the confirmation they are trying to process. If you are trying to view other types of documents (like contracts or scheduling agreements), they will not be displayed due to the confirmation status filter.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Confirmation Status: Review the confirmation status you have entered. If you do not need to filter by confirmation status, you can clear or change this status to allow for a broader view of documents.
  
  
  Change Selection Criteria: If you need to see other document types, modify your selection criteria to exclude the confirmation status or select a different status that allows for a wider range of documents.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific transaction you are using. This can provide insights into how to adjust your settings or what statuses are available.
  
  
  User Training: If this is a recurring issue, consider providing training for users on how to navigate the system and understand the implications of different statuses.
