How to block reusage of archived Project definition and WBS element numbers

Dear All,
We have archived our projects using the TC SARA and the Project definition and WBS elements numbers no more exist in tables PROJ and PRPS etc.. When I now try to create a new project, the system proposes the next open number or allows to enter a number which is the same as one of the archived projects. But in our organization we cannot reuse the Project definition and WBS element numbers (even if it is archived) as a rule.
Can anybody guide me what are the possibilities to block or avoid the reusage of the numbers of archived project definition and WBS elements in a fool-proof way? 
Thanks and regards

One Workaround:
Use T code OPSJ and lock the project coding mask. Doing this you can not use this mask any more.
But you want to continue using the mask but with different numbers. Not sure how this can be acheived. lets wait for others view

  • Creation of project definition and wbs element

    I want creation of project definition and wbs element upto 4 level using bapis.
    i am using transaction cj27,cj01,cj02
    which function module to use for this??

    Hi,
    to create project definition with customer fields the BAPI you should use is : BAPI_BUS2001_CREATE
    to create WBS elements with different levels and specific fields the BAPI you should use is BAPI_BUS2054_CREATE_MULTI
    these bapi must be used in the sequence of call :
    BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION
    BAPI_BUS2001_CREATE / BAPI_BUS2054_CREATE_MULTI
    BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT
    BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
    before using the bapi, you must apply OSS note :
    637345 - Syntax error with enhanced PS tables
    i sent you the oss note to your mail
    please reward points if helpfull.

  • Grey field for project definition and WBS element

    Dear all,
    I have created a project and WBS element in CJ01. Now I go via CJ02 to the change mode and the project ID and WBS element ID is not greyed out. But I would like that the system shows these key fields as not changeable anymore, only fields like description should be changable. Can you please tell me, which customizing step I missed to get the grey field for project ID/WBS element ID?
    FYI  I do not use a project mask to create the project.
    Thanks for your answer.
    Heidi

    Hi Heidi ,
    I don't think you can grey out the Project Definition and the WBS Element fields after the creation .
    If you want to restrict the users to change the Proj definition and WBS , a better way is through
    Authorization objects and restricting only specified users to change the WBS

  • CADO Report - Missing Project Definition and WBS elements

    While running CADO (time sheet data) report for employee, data is not being pulled up for the WBS Element and Project Definition. What could be the reason? Here time is entered against a network activity but for some entries WBS element and project definition is dispalyed and for remaining it is not.

    Yes....these activities are assigned to the WBS element in the project. As I mentioned earlier for the same activity in some cases WBS element is populated.

    hi pratap,
    on ps texts account, can u pl let me know, how i can restrict using the ps texts assigned to one project, bcos the same ps text can be edited or modified any other user.
    ps texts may be different eg, different excel sheets assigned at wbs elements.
    1. abc project wbs assigned xyz ps text (excel sheet)
    2. zyx project wbs assigned xyz1 ps text (excel sheet)
    the above are used by two different users.
    if abc project user goes thru cj02 for editing the ps text xyz, but at the same time, if this user goes thru pull down list, he can also pick up xyz1 ps text and can do edit/modify. 
    is there any way to restrict thru basis/ps control or authorisations
    my requirement whatever assigned ps text is only has to be changed/modified as & when the user opens project thru cj02
    pl help
    regards

                    My client requirement is to lock the complete project and wbs elements so as not to allow any further postings to the project, I knew that we can lock the project or WBS individually by setting the lock status, but i want to lock the complete project  at one step, Is there any possible standard setting to sort out my Issue if not give me the solution.
    Thanks & Regards,

    may be the below explanation will be helpful.
    You can open the project in CJ20N for example and can set the lock for project definition and also you can set the lock for WBS element without saving and exiting from CJ20N, after setting the lock for both project definition and WBS Element you can save and exit.
    It is not possible to select more than one object and set lock with one click.
