Introduction of Reason for Rejection in sap
In business scenarios, the organization or end-users do not want to proceed with the process because the item is too expensive, the delivery date is too late, there is a credit problem, etc. In such scenarios, rejection needs to be maintained, and this will display in the drop-down list of reasons for rejection during processing. Depending on how each rejection reason is configured, the system will behave differently. Today we will take a closer look at the configuration parts of it.
Configuration of Reason for Rejection in SAP.
This configuration specifies the reasons for rejection. These can be used in sales documents to indicate possible rejection reasons. These factors also influence what happens to goods when they are rejected.
Firstly, We need to open SPRO Configuration & follow the below path
IMG → Sales and Distribution → Sales → Sales Documents → Sales Document Item → Define Reasons or reasons for rejection transaction Code – OVAG
Click the new entry to create a new rejection code. Go to new entries, and define your own with Z as a prefix. A two-digit code indicating the reason for the rejection E,g We have created 01 –Delivery date too late.

What is sap reason for the rejection of statistical value
Indicates whether the system considers the value of an item when calculating the total value of a document. Stat. (Statistical Values) Column is located here. In contrast to the reason stated in the Sales Order, Blank should not be maintained and either X or Y should be maintained.
- X – No cumulation – Values cannot be used statistically (the value will not be added to the total Sales Order Value, but it can be used in LIS / SIS).
- Y – No cumulation – Values may be used statistically (the value will not be added.
This ensures that the Rejected Item’s value is not added to the total value of the Sales Order.

Enhancement of Rejection Reason.
When a specific Sales Order type is created, the business wants it to be blocked for further processing and a Reason for Rejection must be specified. With a little SPRO configuration, We can automatically set Delivery / Billing Blocks to the Sales Document Type by using below configuration.
This ensures that the Delivery / Billing Block is assigned to the Sales Order as soon as it is created, and that it can only be removed by authorised Users. Until the block is removed, the following transaction will be denied.
