问题背景： 有客户提出需求，采购订单在触发审批后，如果在审批中的状态，希望采购订单不可被更改。 解决方案： 尝试通过自定义逻辑，写一个 BAdI 来满足需求。 分析步骤： 1.  首先，我们需要在 SAP S/4HANA Cloud 系统的应用 – 自定义逻辑里，新增增强实施。根据业务场景，选择下图中的业务上下文以及业务加载项描述，填写好实施描述以及实施标识。 新增增强措施 2. 在自定义逻辑里新增增强实施完成后，我们需要找到一个字段来获取采购订单的审批状态，需要在 CDS Views 里找到这样的一个字段。I_PurchaseOrderAPI01 这个 CDS View 包含了采购订单的基本信息。根据字段描述，有两个字段可以帮助我们检查采购订单的审批状态。分别是 ReleaseIsNotCompleted 和 PurchasingProcessingStatus 。 ReleaseIsNotCompleted 字段用来表示“审批尚未完全生效”，有两种情况，为空或者为“X”。但前者表示的情况包括订单未审批、审批完成，后者表示的情况包括订单审批中、审批不通过等。所以单独使用这个字段无法判断订单是否处于审批中。 PurchasingProcessingStatus 字段表示“采购凭证处理状态”，类型为 CHAR ，长度为2，通过一个两位的状态码来标识采购订单。标识码有如下几种： 02 – 未审批 03 – 审批中 05 – 审批完成 08 – 审批不通过 因此，我们可以在 BAdI 里使用 ReleaseIsNotCompleted 和 PurchasingProcessingStatus 这两个字段来共同判断采购订单的审批状态，进而实现需求。 3. 根据以上分析过程，实现 BAdI ，具体代码如下。 if purchaseorder-purchasingprocessingstatus is not initial or purchaseorder-purchasingprocessingstatus is initial. select single * from I_PurchaseOrderAPI01 with privileged access....
