Engineering Change Management is a central logistics function that can be used to change various aspects of production basic data (for example, BOMs, task lists, materials, and documents ) with history (with date effectivity) or depending on specific conditions (with parameter effectivity).

A change with history has the following distinctive characteristics:

• It takes effect under precisely defined conditions (precise date or specific effectivity parameter value).

• The changed object is saved twice: in its state before and after the changes.

• A change master record or ECR/ECO controls and documents the changes.
