• Key Concepts: 
  Campaign status is a feature of the Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PPS) component of SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) module. It is used to track the progress of production campaigns, which are defined as a set of production orders that are related to each other and have a common purpose. The campaign status is used to monitor the progress of the campaign and can be used to identify any issues that may arise during the production process. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The campaign status can be set manually or automatically by the system. When manually setting the status, users can choose from a range of options such as “in progress”, “completed”, “cancelled”, or “on hold”. The system will automatically update the status based on the progress of the production orders within the campaign.

This can be done by regularly checking the status and making sure that all orders within the campaign are progressing as expected. Additionally, it is important to ensure that any issues that arise during production are addressed quickly in order to avoid delays or disruptions in production.
