Status profile A status profile is a combination of user statuses and rules that can be defined by the user.

You define status profiles in Customizing. Within a status profile, you can: Define user statuses and document their functions using a corresponding long text Assign a status number to a user status. This status number specifies in what sequence the system runs through the user statuses Define an initial status that is automatically set when an object is created Specify that a user status is automatically set when you execute a business transaction Allow or forbid specific transactions when a status is active Define a business transaction that is automatically executed when you set the user status. A user status is a status that you set, that you can create as additional information to the existing system status. You define user statuses in a status profile. This is created in Customizing for business transactions. You can define and activate as many user statuses as you wish. A status profile can then be assigned to the following in Customizing for business transactions: To a transaction type (for header status) To item categories (for item status) A status profile can be assigned to several transaction types and item categories.
