There seems to be some confusion between the displays in different parts of the SAP software. The JEST table is the central table for status information in SAP and stores both system and user statuses. The system status and the user status can be set and updated independently of each other. The following could apply to your problem: 1. System Status vs. User Status: - The System Status (I0046 = CLSD) represents that the order is both technically and commercially closed - The User Status (E0005 = Closed) is a user-defined status that can be set for specific control purposes within an organization. The user status does not necessarily reflect the system status. 2. Display problem in the order header: - The user status is usually displayed more prominently in the order header, as this is often more important for the end user's daily work. The system status can also be viewed, but is in a different view or may have to be viewed via a special transaction or an extended mode. 3. Status "CLSD" vs. "ABGS": - CLSD (Closed): The status is set when the order is both technically and commercially closed - ABGS (Technically Completed): This status indicates that the order is technically completed, but commercial processes may still be pending. To make the system status visible in the order header or to check whether both statuses are actually set correctly in the system, the following steps may be helpful: - Transaction CO03 (order display): Check the order in the CO03 and navigate through the different tabs and views to find the system status - Status overview: There is often a specific view or tab within the transaction that provides an overall view of the status information. It might also be helpful to check the customizing of the status profiles and status management configuration to make sure everything is configured as desired. It is not uncommon for specific settings in the status profiles to strongly influence the display and processing of status information. So to summarize: It's not a thinking error on your part, but it could be a specific configuration or a limitation in the default display of the SAP software that is causing you to not see both statuses in the header.
