transition time - Details

  Key Concepts: 
  Transition time is a term used in SAP's Supply Chain Management (SCM) Master Data component. It is the time period between two different versions of master data, such as material master data or customer master data. During this period, both versions of the master data are valid and can be used in transactions. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Transition time is used to ensure that all transactions are processed correctly when changes are made to master data. For example, if a customer's address is changed, the transition time allows for any orders placed before the change to be processed with the old address, while orders placed after the change will use the new address. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up transition times, it is important to consider how long it will take for all transactions to be processed. This will help ensure that all transactions are processed correctly and that no data is lost or corrupted.
