Workflow for purchase requisition release strategy

Hi all,
I need an urgent help on Workflow for Purchase Requisition Release. The requirement is that when a purchase requisition with a given combination (Purchasing Group, Material Group and Account Assignment Category) is created and saved, it should trigger a workflow for approval of release or rejection to one specific business manager. If he dont responds in 2 days, it should be sent to other business manager. If any one of them releases the requisition, it should send a mail to the requestor that the requisition is released. And if it is rejected, then also a mail to be sent to the requester informing that his requisition is rejected...
Can anyone take some pain and guide me step by step procedure to implement this or to use any existing one.... I know its BUS2009 thats used in this but really dont know how to implement it properly.
Its urgent...

  • Purchase requisition release strategy tab missing

    Hi all
    I configured purchase requisition release strategy and ME51N is working issuing no error but it is not displaying Release Strategy Tab , please help me where i am wrong.

    hi,
    check few reasons:
    1. There might be more than 1 release strategy using the same class, due to which it is not possible for sap system to determine the unique rel. strategy..this normally happens when you copy the exsisting class and assign it to own new one...
    2. check the release strategy OMGSCK, is there any problem with your release strategy...
    3. Check whether you have maintained all the classified field in the document or not..
    4. check whether the release is assigned to any workflow...if so, then check the inbox pls...
    regards

  • Overall Purchase requisition Release strategy : Changed after Rejected

    Hi All,
        I have activated overall purchase requisition Release strategy (20000077) . And its working fine when PR is released at each level and saved.
      Problem I have is when PR is rejected .
    When PR is rejected , workitem is created for initiator with ME52 transaction. When initiator changes the contents of PR and saves , the release strategy should resume back from where it stopped. Thats means when Approver A rejects the PR, after initiator make changes , the workflow should trigger back with a workitem for release to approver A.
    But its not happening as expected. When Approver A rejected the PR and initiator changes the PR , Nothing is triggered, as there is no event raised at this point. 
    ME52 changes for PR is not trigerring any event which can trigger the WF.
    Is there any way we can trigger Workflow in this scenerio.
    Please suggest.

    Hi Subhashini,
    This all depend on release strategy. release should reset completely on tha change.
    For the increase of quantities or values you can maintain tolerance limits in the Customizing. When you increase the amount or value via the tolerance limit the system will reset the release.
    When you reduce quantities or values the system only resets the release if another release strategy is determined for the lower quantity or the lower value.
    If no other release strategy is determined by the reduction of the
    amount or value, the system will keep already existing releases.
    changeability in Release indicator also play a major role. You should set it to either 3 or 4. Now if you change any field, which is also used in any charecteristics in release, it will lead to reset of release startegy.

  • Tranposrt - Purchase Requisition Release Strategy with Classification

    Gurus!
    Tell me if I want to Transport the Purchase Requisition release strategy with classification. The Data in each charisteristics in each PR Strategy that I have set in Dev is not getting transported to Quality.
    Do I have to enter the data in characteristics again in Quality and the same procedure I have to apply for Production.
    If yes, in this scenario, Can I make Production modifiable.
    Regards
    Sajid

    Hello,
    Create a special ID in PRD with access to change characteristics. This ID should be released for specific purposes and with approval (project manager/SAP support manager). You can also turn on auditing so that all activites performed are logged which can be used to satify auditors.
    Cheers !

  • Purchase Requisition Release Strategy wont trigger

    All:
    I have set up what i thought was a simple purchase requisition release strategy. Parameters are as follows:
    1.) Doc Type = NB set up as CEBAN-BSART
    2.) Acct Assn Category = k set up as CEBAN-KNTTP
    3.) Purch Org = 300 set up as CEBAN-EKORG
    4.) Overall Value = 0-1000, 1000-10000, 10000-50000, >50000 set up as CEBAN-GFWRT
    Release group is set for overall release, i've checked the release strategy with OMGQCK and everything was good to go, checked CL30N and everything was triggering, checked table T16FS and there weren't any fishy entries. Oh also, i've tried deleting and recreating the entire release strategy at least 3 times.
    Whenever i create a purchase requisition, i get no release tab. Not sure what else i'm missing here.
    Any help is appreciated!

    I created 4 characteristic with the above mentioned criteria (doc type, purch org, net value, & account assignment category). I assigned all 4 of these characteristics to a class.
    Matrix is as follows:
    0-1000, doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct  assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01
    1000-10000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct  assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01 & 02
    10000-50000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct  assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01, 02, & 03
    >50000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct  assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01, 02, 03, & 04

  • Creating  workflow for purchase order release.

    Hi friends
    I want step by step detail about creation of workflow for purchase order release..
    After release purchase order it will goes to the two level of approval..
    after that the workflow should be completed...
    how can i develope the workflow for that scenario..
    Thanks
    Gowrishankar

    Hi Gowrishankar,
    You can get step by step workflow for PO using standard workflow
    <b>Release of Purchase Order :WS20000075</b>
    And for two levels of approvals you have to configure in SPRO the path is
    Purchase Order:
    SPRO> Material Management->Purchasing->/Purchase order-->Release procedure ---> Procedure with classification ---> set up procedure with classification ---> double click on Release strategies and Workflow.
    If you don't know about this configuration, you have to confirm with your MM consultant.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Purchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition

    Hello Gurus
    We want to set up the urchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition ..Any can one Please share your experience about the impact down the road?
    Thanks
    Nick

    Hi,
    If you want include the MRP related PR in Release strategy.
    You need to include the field CEBANESTKZ-Creation Indicator (Purchase Requisition/Schedule Lines) in one of the characteristics which you create and include the characteristics value as per the field values like AReal time, BMRP, CConverted Planned order etc.. and include the charactristic in the Release Strategy will release group & release codes.
    So when ever the PR is created through MRP run then this creation indicator will update in the PR as per that release Strategy will trigger in the PR.
    there is one more option you need to create the separate document type as MRP PR then create document type as characteristics and include the values of all these document types and include in Release strategy.
    But it will  not pop up for direct PR from MRP run only trigger when planned order is converted to PR manually there you need to select this MRP document type then release strategy will trigger.
    I think first one is best suited.

  • User Exit for getting Purchase Requisition Release Strategy

    Hi Experts,
    When a user creates a PR I need to know the user exit I need to implement so that the First Approver (Processor) text  in the Release Strategy is populated from a custom table. I have seen that the field is MEREL_S_GRID1-STEXT. I also need to know if I can implement a user exit so that it pulls the release strategy for a PR for assets (Acct Category A) since it is pulling for Acct Category K (Cost Centre) and the Release Strategy tab is appearing in this case.
    Kind Regards,
    Darlington

    Hi Meenakshi,
    Thanks for the very useful answer. It has given clues on how to resolve this issue. I have resolved this issue for the Asset item category using the following thread: user exit for requisition release strategy, and also SAP Note 365604.
    However, I have another issue, the release strategy for Stock Items, (item category blank) is not pulling through. I need to use the same method above but would like to know how it determines the funds centre for a specific stock item. I couldn't find where that is implemented in the material master and I need info on how to determine the account assignment for stock items based on the funds centre.
    Regards and Thanks.

  • Purchase requisition  - release strategy statistic

    Anyone knows if exists a standard program/tr/utility for monitoring the use of release strategies

    In our system there are a lot of release strategies obsolete or used for few cases, so
    we would check the effective use of release strategies.

    Select release strategy> Go to details>classification
    here check what are the charactaristic and what are the values maintained for it
    Check this for all release strategy
    Mostly PR release strategy is based on Document type and PR Value
    Check whether UR PR fits in release strategy criteria
    Suppose Total value of requisition is maintained as 1000-2000
    If UR PR value is less than 1000 Then PR will not subject to release

  • Purchase Requisition Release Strategy with classification

    Hi there,
    Please help,
    I have the release strategy and workflow working. (Overall Release)
    Problem is that Org Structure is not updated so workflow has been configure going to (US) user. As i am using workflow option 1 which is resolved via Group, Code & Plant, I have to have a code for every region and manager to resolve the workflow. I am not using plant as business requirement is overall release.
    Scenario is that there are 8 regions with 1 senior region manager and 1 executive.
    The region managers can each release up to 20k. Senior region manager must release from 20k - 50k. Executive must release from 50k -250k.
    Release Codes:
    Regions = L1 - L8
    Senior Region Manager = SR
    Executive = X1
    Characteristics are:
    DocType = NB
    AccAsingment = K (Cost Centre requisitions)
    Purchasing Group = (Each region has own group)
    TotValue = 0k -20k, 20k - 50k, 50k - 250k.
    Now the release strategies.
    Even though it is the same senior manager and executive why do i have to create a new strategy for every region's escalation above 20k taking into account that the business requirement is that the correct region manager has to release before the senior manager can release? It just seems so pedantic when i would rather just add the correct Purchasing Group everytime.
    This is only one leg of the Org Structure there are over 40 depts, and managers that will create and release. Do i really need a strategy for every single scenario?
    Thanks for taking the time to read.
