How to apply newly transported release strategy to existing POs ?

Hi,
We transported a new release strategy to production
The new POs created are catching the rel strat B if they meet criteria
But some of the existing POs also meet the criteria for B and they should also take up this new release strategy
We cannot change the POs in ME22N, busines refuses to make any change to POs
How can we apply our new rel strategy to these POs ? has the SAP provided any standard function module to report?
thank you
B

thankyou for the replies.
finally we got minor price change done manually in all the POs to get the new rel strategy on them
Open POs , no change done - Did not pick release strategy (then it was no problem at the first place)
Open POs , change done in price - picked the new release strategy
Open POs ,  no change done but click on 'check' button in change mode - Could not test this one bcoz all POs are now converted. But I put break point in save user exit (which also plays part in determining the new release strategy) it did not stop at the break point and I gave message 'No data changed' so I think this action will not redetermine release strategy. It was very useful if it did though.
thank you.

    How/where to look PR release strategy to a profile?

    I am not sure what you mean by profile?
    A release strategy contains different elements
    Characteristics
    Class
    Release group
    Release code
    Release indicator
    Rlelease prerequisite
    The release strategy for PR is set up in customising
    OLME->Purchase requisition->Release procedure->set up procedure

  • How to check the PR release Strategy change date?

    hi,

    Hi
    You can directly go into the Purcahse order & check for the Heder changes which will give the Changed Date
    If you need to use two table to find out the date when the Strategy was changed.
    Use Table CDHDR & CDPOS. Object key is the POurcahse order number

  • Release strategy affecting old POs

    Hi Experts,
    When we tried to cancel the material document by tcode MBST , we got the error  message  u201C Purchasing document  not yet releasedu201D
    This  PO and  related GRs were created before we implemented PO release functionality.  Even then, the system looks for PO release while reversing the old GR documents.
    If we release this PO now,  it will go to top management level for further approval.
    Please advice whether we can  process OLD POs without  effecting releasing  procedure
    Many thanks,

    thankyou for the replies.

  • Transportation of release strategy

    Hi guys,
    We heard that in ECC 6.0, we can transport release strategy for PRs and POs along with characteristics and classes.  I have the following doubts on this
    1) Can we transport the values assigned in the strategies also with this functionality ?
    2) From MM side can we configure the strategies in the normal way i.e. creating characteristics, creating classes, creating release groups, creating release indicators, configuring release strategies (or) we need to follow any other procedure for transporting the strategies
    Any suggestions on this

    Hi
    I dont think this functionality exits of transporting the charcterisitcs & classes.
    In ECC 6.0 also this functionality does not exist as per my knowledge.
    Jurgen Thank you for the SAP note
    Thanks & Regards

  • Transport of Release Strategy Classification

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any way to transport Release Strategy Classifications.
    Regards,
    AKS

    You cannot transport them (Class and characteristics) . But There is a way to send them accross systems by ALE   . ref SAP link http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/24/903b39878f4205e10000000a114084/frameset.htm .  You will need help of an Abaper who has worked on ALE .
    If the data isnt large, its safest to manually create class and chars and assign in CL24N .

  • Release strategy and code authorizations

    Hi,
    We need to create a new release strategy for PO.  After setting strategy, we are assigning existing release codes A1 and A2 to strategy.  The same release code is also used in existing release strategy.
    Now, will this create any authorization issue if we assign same release codes to different strategies, and different users in user roles.
    Thanks
    Alex

    Hi,
    I am confused with your requirement. When you have a business requirement to control the release, may be a new department created or new character value requires for adding to release process.
    Option-1:--- >When you decided to create new release strategy, you should have gone for creating new release codes & design your release process with new release strategy with new release codes. Do not use same release codes, use different release codes for new release strategy which will be easy to control for authorization based on respective users.
    Option-2:--- > When you added a new release characteristic to release class based on requirement, then check assignment of release group to release class ( just make change & TR need to be transported),release strategy design which trigger on how release is to be affected & which manner with a logic. Also check the new value you are entering with your release class, release group & release strategy in Cl20N/CL24N t.codes. Also check during creation of new release characteristic, you have values with correct field name.

  • Contract & PO Release Strategy

    Hi All,
    We are in the process of designing the release strategy for contract and PO. I  would like to know whether we can have the different release conditions for contract and different release conditions for PO. For example.
    The release conditions for Contract required are
    1)Porg
    2)Pgroup
    3) Value
    Also, for quantity contract how can we make the release strategy trigger based on value.
    The release conditions for PO required are
    1)Porg
    2)Pgroup
    3)Material Group
    4)Value
    The release strategy is not getting determined if we create po with two line items which belongs to two different material group. Is there any way out to solve this issue?
    Request your help.
    Regards,
    Kannan

    Hi Kannan
    Yes your requirement is possible...
    While creating Charectristics in CT04 for External Purchase Documents...Create one more Value  for your Document Category...ie) Table as :CEKKO   and Field  as BSTYP   and choose the Purchase Doc. Category  values K  and F.
    Then create Charecteris for  CEKKO - EKORG,  CEKKO - EKGRP   and   CEKKO - GNETW, CEKKO- MATKL...  and assign these all 4 Chareteristices in your release class.
    And Configure your release statergy according to your requirement...
    Reward if useful

  • Release strategy for Release POs

    Hi Every one,
    We have a requirement.
    A contract is created and approved as per the regular strategy.
    The releases (POs) are created against it and sent directly to the vendor.
    As the Contract is already approved, standard SAP does not apply the release strategy for the POs created for the contract.
    But the business wants the PO releases too to follow the release strategy.
    Can you please look in to this and let me what changes we need to make this happen.
    Regards
    Pavan

    As the Contract is already approved, standard SAP does not apply the release strategy for the POs created for the contract
    This statement is not correct, it's upto you to use or Not to use Release Process for release Orders (PO) created w.r.to Contract.
    As the table & fields are Common for both Contract & PO release ..you need to choose the PO relevant fields & values in the Release Strategy..
    So that the Release Process is applicable to PO's created w.r.to Contract also..
    For ex: if you use the field purchase Doc category as a Character  in  the Release , it differentiates whether it is PO or Contract..
    So that you can define different Release Strategy for PO & Contract
    Or  if you maintain the Doc type of PO in the Contract Release Strategy in CL20N / CL24N trxn code..
    then the release strategy applies to PO also..

  • Wrong Release strategy in purchase order

    Hi,
    I have a specific purchase order with wrong release strategy.
    I had been creating others documents with the same total value and the release strategy work correctly.
    The release strategy configuration are right.
    How I can correct the release strategy in a specific document?
    Thanks.
    Best Regards.

    Hi,
    The release strtegy is basically conssitss of Different type of characters.
    What characters you are highlighting plays in release strategy.
    First you comapre the characters you mentioned in two purchase orders,
    eg: p.org, Pur Grp, Value,------
    o to bith release strategies and compre the things or characters you mentioned Release strategy and found wher you missed to get the required Strategy.
    SPRO>>MM>>Purchase order>>Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>>Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>>Click on release strategies
    Select your release strategy and go to Classification , here you chck the parameters in both release strategies and compare with your purchase orders.

  • BapiCreateFromData Release Strategy

    How can I set the Release Strategy in the Purchase Requisition? I'm creating a Purchase Requisition using the Bapi BapiCreateFromData from the business object Purchase Requisition, but there's no such parameter to set the Release Strategy as far as I can see.

    check there BAPI to set
    BAPI_REQUISITION_RELEASE
    BAPI_REQUISITION_RELEASE_GEN
    for more info just go thru documentations of that BAPI.
    It comes from Confirg , u cannt define ur own strategies while creating the PR .
    check in SPRO----> MM---> Purchasing ---> PR---> release procedure.

  • Redetermine release strategy for purchasing requisitions

    Hi Guys,
    How can I redetermine the release strategy for purchasing requisions when changes on the costcenter (EBKN-KOSTL)  are done -
    I know that it will be redermined when I add the costcenter as charateristics in customizing for release strategy but thats not an option
    I also tried to add coding in userexit for changing the communication strategy (Include ZXM06U13) but this exit doesn't provide information of the document number and position (EBAN, EBKN ..) so I can't find out if changes have been made
    I spend several hours trying to find solutions for this issue but no working results so far ..
    I hope you can help me on that
    TIA
    Manuel

    Hi,
    Note that EBKN will have entries corresponding to a PR only when it is        
    saved or checked, so KOSTL will not have any values for a PR which is under              
    creation. You should always use fields from structure CEBAN while             
    creating characteristics for Requisition release procedure as it              
    contains most of the relevant data about a PR under creation/change.
    I would advice you to check the note 365604.
    Please also check the changeability indicator in the customizing:
    transaction OLME -> Purchase Requisitions -> Release Procedure -> Procedure with Classification -> Set Up Procedure with Classification -> Release indicator -> check the detail screen for settings.
    Please check additionally the possible values for your characteristic cost centre (transaction CT04).
