PO release strategy based on Material Group (CEKKO - MAKTL)

Hi Experts,
I have configure the Rel strategy based CEKKO-MATKL (material group) for purchase order, but when i raise the PO Rel strategy is not affecting, Can any body tell me why.
Regards,
Kumar

You can set Release strategy based on Material group & other Line item specific fields..
You better follow a suitable and hinder less process..
For PR use Material group & Account Assignment based Release process..
then for PO use a Release Process based on Header level fields like Doc type, Amount, pur Group etc..
So that the approved PR line can be converted into PR and then the PO also subjected to Release before sending it to External Vendor..
Even if you want you can make that the PO can not be created without referencing PR for SOme users or All users..
based on your business requirement..

Escape Release strategy based on purchasing group

Dear Experts,
In our system, PO release strategy is set up,
But, some of the POs are not subjected to release strategy because they belong to a perticular Purhasing Group (P01).
Where this set up is done?
Regards,
Shashidhar

Hi Shashidhar,
In your system it seems there is a characteristic created for Purchasing Group, if you want it activated for a particular Purch Group, then please do the following
Determine the strategy that you want to be called ( You can see any existing PO to find it out), once done, you need to identify the characteristics and class
SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Purchase order-release strategy, define release strategy, select your strategy and go to details and click on classification, in case you get an error and not able to, click on release pre requisites, come back and then try again, in classification you will get to see the various characteristics maintained and also the class name at the top.
Once you have done that, please go back to the node Edit Class, please put the class that you obtained earlier and get the characteristics for Purchasing Group.
Then go to the node Edit Characteristic, put your characteristic name say PO_RELEASE_EKGRP, Click on the tab values, and add your Purchasing group here and save it.
Then go to transaction CL24N, provide the class, and select the release strategy you are interested in, and select change, and detail, there for the characteristic for Purchasing group, you can add the previously added Group, and you are good to go.
Please let me know if this helps.
Regards
Shailesh

Purchase order release strategy based on over delivery tolerance level

Hi Boss,
I like to set the Purchase order release strategy based on the over delivery tolerance. But when i checking, the over delivery tolerance filed UEBTO is not in the communication structure CEKKO. Can you please help me how should i extend the CEKKO with field UEBTO.
I do not have the ABAP experience, please guide me with coding.
Thank you,

Hi Siva:
You should request the development key for this structure under your SAP system, then you can add the extra fields in CEKKO.

Kindly also let me know how the user can be mapped to cost centres for approval as the user wants to have different approvers for different cost centres. We have searched for the authorisation obj for cost centre but could not get mor information .Pls help .
Thanks

Hi,
Option-1:
You can create release characteristics with field KOSTL and add this characteristic with release class with other release characteristics. And you can design your release strategy based on requirement & then limit the cost center via authorization object K_REPO_CCA
Option-2:
Create Purchasing Group (OME4) as Department & assign the department to Cost center(KS02/KS01). Now create purchasing group as release characteristics with field EKGRP add this characteristic with release class with other release characteristics. And now you can design your release strategy based on requirement.

Contracts based on Material Groups....

Can we create Contracts based on material Group?
Like We want to create a contract for Material Group Casting. We want to negotiate terms for Material Group & then procure the part.
How do we do this?
Thanks Anupam

Create a Quantiy Contract with Item Category 'M'- Material Unknown.
Then create PO refering to this contract.
System asks for material number or AAC. It also checks the material group against the one in the contract.
By defaut a warning message is issued if material groups do not match (message MEPO074).
This can be set to 'E' in customising but SAP gives a warning when you trying to set this message as error.
Customising path: SPRO>MM>Purchasing>Environment>Define attributes of system messages.
It is also possible to code this check in PO user exit and issue a custom message.

Order based on material group

Hello,
In our current system the system looks on based of the Requisitioner and under which Purchasing Group the Requisitoner is set under PPOMA_BBP where the Purchase Requisition is going. Then the Purchaser can create a Purchase Order. Under each Purchasing Group is an appointed Purchaser.
Weu2019d like to change this proces. We want this change based on material group. However, when multiple Purchasing Groups use the same material groups than the system always looks for the top Purchasing Group. This is not the intention. Can this set separately in PPOMA_BBP? Or elsewhere in the system?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Petra de Winter

PO release strategy based on Account Assignment Cat (CEKKO - KNTTP)

Hi Experts,
I want to configure the release strategy for PO on account assignment category.when i maintaining a characteristic for account assignment cat by inputing CEKKO- KNTTP , sys throughs error message. I looked in to CEKKO but I could not find the field .Kindly tel how maintain teh same .
Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
Account Assignment Category and Item Category belong to the item level and not to the header level of a purchase order (table EKPO). Therefore,   neither Account Assignment Category nor Item Category are available in CEKKO.As work-around you can use the following user-exit:
MM06EF0S_STRATEGIE_CEKKO
(enhancement M06E0004, EXIT_SAPLEBND_002, ZXM06U22).
In this user-exit the data are available in structure I_CEKKO.   The hand-over from I_CEKKO to the calling program is via structure E_CEKKO.   In the user-exit I_CEKKO has to be copied to E_CEKKO , e.g.
E_CEKKO = I_CEKKO.
Please also see our FAQ note 365604, it is worth reading.

Purchase Group to be selected based on Material Group

Dear Gurus,
I would like the system to automatically suggest the purchase group based on the material group mentioned in the purchase requisition.
Is there any way this can be done?
Regards
Veronica

There is no standard config to achieve this requirement.
You can create one Z table to maintain the relation between PGrp and Mat.Grp and use exit to populate the corresponding PGrp for the line item

Release Strategy based on Attached PO scanned Image

Hi experts,
Can u please let me know if i can configure Release Strategy for PO based on the attachement. If possible i would insist on configuring the same using characteristics instead of Customization.
When I have tried to do so I beleive there are two custom feilds allowed for Characteristics configuration but unfortunately both the custom classification parameters are already utilized. namely USRC1, USRC2.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi Singh,
Your requirement is not possible in standard settings.
But how do you plan to configure release strategy on what is attached in PO? Do you use DMS for this purpose or use GOS?

Release strategy based on Total landed cost

Dear Friends
My client has the following requirement.
Release strategy should be triggered based onthe Total Landed cost which include taxes, insurance, octroi and freight.
we tried with the user exit but could not achieve the target as the Total landed cost is nowhere updated inthe EKPO table.Help inthis regard is appreciable.
Regards
Bapears K

Hi,
While defining characteristics please link up to standard dictionary i.e.
Cost Center CEBAN - KOSTL
Item Value CEBAN - GSWRT.
If you want account assignment also a controlling paramenter, then define Acc Assgnmt as a characterstic and assign the same to the class.
Assign these characteristics to a class.
