Hi experts,

We faced a problem in Sales Order workflow where the signed flag becomes BLANK when header condition not met.

When creating a new sales order in LIVE folder, it doesn't trigger the workflow because the "header condition was not met", and the APPFLG flag changed automatically from 1 (No) to 0 (blank), where it should be "5" (Yes, Automatic Signed).

I duplicated the folder from LIVE to TEST folder (using Data Extraction and Data integration function), so all basis setup information is the same (i.e. workflow rules, parameters, server environment, assignment value, sales order information).

When creating new sales order in TEST, though the header condition is not met, the APPFLG changed from 1 to 5(Yes, automatic). This is working fine.

Here is the conditions for our workflow rule

I activated the debug mode for both folder. 

Below is the Debug log in LIVE folder.

Notice that when creating new sales order , the default value for APPFLG is 1, but upon clicking "Create" it seems to have changed the APPFLG to 0 therefore it passed through the 3rd condition in the workflow rules. 

the following is the debug log for TEST folder. The APPFLG was not changed. 

I have checked the specifics of SOH, it does not have codes relevant to APPFLG assignment.

Anyway I duplicated the complete folder using Data integration, i presume any specifics should also be copied to the TEST folder.

This happens in X3 PU9 patch 3 (both folder has same patch).

I checked also the TRT in both folders. some files are different.
I tried to copy some related different files to TEST Folder but

Any idea how to proceed troubleshooting / fixing this?

Your valuable feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
