POSTING KEY (Vs) FIELD STATUS VARIENT? I have a doubt regarding role of posting key & field status varient. Both of these control fields of document entry. Now if there is a confilct between these two then what system will accept & why For example a filed "ASSIGNMENT" is controlled by posting key as well as field status varient. Now If I make this filed as "Required" in posting key & as "Optional" in filed status varient, then also system show it as "Required" when we pass document entry.

The system takes it on the priority bases:

which is

1.Suppress
2. Display
3. Required
4.Optional

Note:- supress and required both at the same time creates an error.

like posting key is having supress of say assignment field and field status group is having required of assignment field then the system will show the error message.
