Copy a Position with Requirement (or Qualification) assigned

Hi,

I've found that in standard configuration, copying a position with requirement (or qualification) assigned explicitly (i.e. not through job) seems not possible in PPOME / HRTMC_PPOM. The system prompts that the relationship A031 cannot be maintained through basic transactions.

I understand that I can do configuration in T-Code OOVK in order to allow the maintenance. But I would like to know why SAP suggest that the position cannot be copied when a requirement is assigned? Or is there any SAP suggested way to do the copy?

Thanks,

Steven
