Automatically creating approvals

If you are also using License Management, Trade Compliance Management can generate automatic approvals based on individual licenses during export controls from a host system. In addition to the pessimistic screening algorithm that only selects licenses that match the check item very closely, the following measures minimize the risk of using a wrong license:

• You must explicitly flag licenses applicable for the automatic creation of an approval.
• AEB also advises you to maintain the data of these licenses as detailed as possible.
• The check transaction must be started in a host system and you must specify in the check transaction that automatic approval is possible.
• The check item must not be a BOM item.
• During the check, no applicable general license must be found.
• If more than one applicable license or more than one applicable license item is found, no automatic approval is created.

Proceed as follows:

1. Go to Export Controls – Check transactions and open a check transaction.
2. Switch to the Check log sheet.
   • You are provided with detailed information on the applicable licenses and whether an automatic approval has been created.
3. Viewing the log: Select License Management − Logs.
   • Logs for automatically created approvals have the Approval log type and the Autom. created (automatically created) event.
