Routings and Orders

Question:
Hello everyone,
We are running on enterprise 4.6c. I seek a solution to a problem regarding automatic update of operations in production or planned orders from routing.
For a particular material routing if there is a change in operations, we need same operations in production orders and planned orders. Can any one suggest some solution to it.
thanking you

Answer:
thank you very much for your advices, i got some idea now.
But, when i do this i get an error dialogue box saying:
The business transaction cannot be carried out.
with buttons "Status information" and "Cont."
Can you tell me how should i proceed further, or what is the problem?
thankyou very much for trying to help me..
Answer:
The Status message contains following information:
The following order has system status PCNF(partially confirmed). According to this status, transaction "Reread master data" is not allowed.
how can i read master data which is partially confirmed?
Answer:
I believe it can't be done because costs are already associated with the order, we get the same message. May be able to change the error to a soft error in customizing. Can only re-read master data if only the order is released and no other transactions have occured. i.e material allocations or confirmations.
Answer:
Is it possible that an ABAP program can help, which makes these operations in production orders change automatically as operations in routings change?
thanking you all
Answer:
If you truly want to re-read master data on a partially confirmed order you will have to back out all of your confirmations first (CO14, or 13, I forget). Then, when you re-read master data, a warning will come up telling the status is changing to unreleased. Now the data will be re-read. YOu can then re-release and re-confirm.
Note that as part of the re-read, a window will pop up asing if you want to re-read the version, BOM, and routing. YOu can unselect any of these if you wish. Also, be aware of the date of each of these fields as it must be set after the date your BOM, routing, or costing change was made.
