• Key Concepts: 
  Effectivity control is a feature of the SAP Manufacturing Execution (MFG-ME) component that allows users to manage the production process by controlling when certain activities can be performed. It enables users to define the start and end dates for activities, as well as the conditions under which they can be performed. This helps to ensure that production processes are carried out in an efficient and timely manner.
  
  How to use it: 
  Effectivity control can be used to define the start and end dates for activities, as well as the conditions under which they can be performed. This is done by setting up rules in the system that specify when certain activities can be performed. For example, a rule could be set up to only allow a certain activity to be performed between certain dates or when certain conditions are met. Once these rules are set up, they will be automatically enforced by the system.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up effectivity control rules, it is important to ensure that they are clear and easy to understand. This will help to ensure that the rules are properly enforced and that production processes are carried out in an efficient and timely manner. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update effectivity control rules as needed in order to keep up with changes in production processes.
