Functionality
The function module changes the attributes of the deadline monitoringfor the work item with the ID WI_ID. The attributes are passed in thetable DEADLINE_ATTRIBUTES. In this table, only the deadline data thatis to be changed is passed. It is assumed that the data is complete(date, time and action specified) and valid (deadline not in the past).

Notes
The following conditions apply when the attributes are changed:

  • A deadline is cancelled if:

    • The action attribute had the value SPACE
    The date attribute has the value '00000000'
    The time attribute has the value '000000'
    • The escalation time is only changed if it has a value other than 0. But
      • the escalation time is only evaluated for the latest end (currently notat all).
      • Since the default value for the time (00:00:00) is also a valid time
        • value, this time cannot be set. (00:00:01) must be entered.
