Production order in the additoanl tab b in sales order

Question

Hello gurus,
I have to create a new field on sales order item(additional tab b) where the production order would be filled via a batch job.
Then i have to create a z-program to populate the new field added (this would run everyday).
selection screen would have sales order(optional)
sales org (required, multiple values possible)
plant (required, multiple values possible)
date (required field representing the date from which update is to be seen)
logic:
for a particular date find all the sales order changed after that date.
read for all these whether there is a production order linked to it.
(this can be done by reading all production oreders enterd/chnged after that date.
for every sales order look for the value of variant characterstics b_sales_order & b_sales_order_item using method get_prod_order_multiple)
look for sales order item with the value of this characterstic and populate the new additional field with production order.
please advice how to proceed.

hi,
You can changes the settings in OPU3 and also you can do it in CO03.
If you want to restrict the user for backward scheduling except for some cases then you can do this in CO03 other wise it is better to do it in OPU3 transaction. Both cases you need to enter max days for back dated scheduling.
For doing it is CO03 follow the pat from order header data screen.
Menu...
Order>>settings->scheduling parameters.
Hope this can help.
