Approvers name to appear at PR release strategy

Dear gurus,
I have configured the PR release strategy. In customizing, I assigned the Release Codes to the '(S) Position' Agent ID's. Everything is working fine.
Here is the issue, my client would like to see the name of the person who is supposed to release the PR. The client understands that the customizing wasnt done by assigning the Release Codes to the 'User' Agent ID's. However, the client would still like to see the name of the person who is supposed to do the release.
Is there any way I can bring the Users name at the PR release strategy at transactions ME53N, ME54N and ME55 ?
Thanks in advance.

The idea of changing the Release Code to the name of the person assigned to a Position will work if you have a very stable organisation and only ever have one person assigned to a Position.
Do you have that situation ?
Otherwise it's a development e.g. speak to an ABAPer.
Regards,
Nick

User names of service entry sheet release strategy

Dear Expert ,
Kindly guide from which table could I get the user names values who done the release strategy for service entry sheet for example I have 3-release codes : 1. Creator
                        2. Verifier
                        3. Approver
So I need to know who has done these 3-actions for respective service entry .
Best Regards

Hi,
The information about the Person who has relesed the entry sheet will be not stored in the change document for the entry sheet.
There is only the information about which release code has released the SES. In an organization a certain user or a group of   users can use the very same release code.
However, if you have also configured a workflow with this release strategy, then it is possible to know who has
released the SES.
You will need to create you own report which reads the change history (CDHDR and CDPOS) and finds out the date when the last release code of the release strategy has been released and to find out based on this data who was the approver.

Approvers names are appearing as #######

Hello SAP experts.
I'm facing an issue in SRM portal. Users create Shopping carts and the approvers names in the list is appearing as ######. The approvers name is in Greek so something is wrong with the character encoding.
This is random. For some approvers the name is appearing correctly with the Greek characters and for some approvers the name is appearing as ###########.
I checked the HR structure and how the name is dispayed but everything seems ok there. Then i supposed that it was services problem but why some names are appearing correctly and others don't?
If someone could help me i would appreciate since i'm in a dead end here :(.
Thank you in advance

What is the name of the table where Release Strategy changes are maintained

Dear Friends,
Every time I make the changes in the Release Strategy Codes the Signature of the Approver changes in the Output. The problem is that it even changes for the Older PO's which are already approved by some other approver. Is there any way this problem can be sorted out? or can any one give the name of the table which records the changes made in the Release Strategy along with time and date? I will be really thankful if you guys can help me out!

Hi Chintan,
I hope you are talking about the release codes, which we attach later on to user Ids and signature means its description. I hope followed correctly.
In standard system, as and when you change the description of release code at back end, it gets reflected on front end. No matter whether its old or new PO. There is no way out to stop this. Every time you display the purchase order, the release codes checks for description at back end and displayes the same. Still, it should not bother you, as the already released PO dosent get affected for any changes you do at back end in the entire release strategy.
Beside the tables mentioned by other friends AUSP is the table where all release related entries gets stored.
I hope it clarifies.

Release Strategy to work on PO Gross value (inclusive of taxes)

Dear MM Gurus,
We have configured the PO Release strategy as under:
1) < 500000
2) > 500000
After checking the PO, we now find that the release strategy gets
triggered on the basic price only. Any additions to the amounts in the
condition tab also adds it to the Basic price and the release strategy
is properly working.
But when the user defines Tax code under Invoice tab, the Tax amount
gets added to the PO value. But in this case, the Release strategy
functionality does not work.
Requirement is that the Release strategy should work on the total PO
value (including Tax amounts). Any addition to the PO value by either
Condition amounts and/or Tax amounts should activate the Release
Strategy functionality.
Currently, it works only for the Net order value. Please let us know
how to configure for the PO Gross order value.
Thanks in advance
M

How can you include tax amount in the release strategy process. Approvers are doingthe approval/rejection through release strategy only for goods that are being purchased and it is value and tax amount is not relevant here at all.
Explain to your customer that this requirement cannot be implemented. If he still insists thatn tell him that only if they convert the tax amount into a price component, then it is possible. But then doing this means it is not tax, so basically the requirement is crazy.

CL24N and CL20N also Maintained.
But this New Release stragey Not Invoked and Old one only invoked at the time of requsition created.
Please guide me is there any configuration to Invoke this new Strategy?
Regards,
Sridhar.

Hi Indranil,
Thanks for your response.
I thought user name will differentiate the new release strategy with old one.
I am using same parameters in both strategies.
Plants, Material groups, Cost center same with old one. New release strategy very few members are going to use.
Business is few users will create Pur Req. Users are not having release codes. Tracking number also used in another release strategy.

Sridhar.

Release Strategy Processor Names under Release Strategy tab for a PReq

Hello Experts,
We have situation in Release Strategy for Purchase Requsitions in which we need to display all approvers names under the Release strategy tab for a Purchase Requisition.
Senerio work as follows.
Based on the Release strategy customization settings,Purchase Requisition subjected to release strategy selects the approver names from a custom table.
In the Custom table we have names of the approvers with release codes.
Purchase Requisition displaying the names of the approvers according to alphabetical order.Hence it displays First one user or approver name under the release strategy according to the approver alphabetical order from the custom table.
Can we display name of all approvers in one line according to initial investigation there is room for 40 characters under the release strategy tab.
Let me know if any Standarad OSS notes available for this.
Amogh

Hi amogh if you configure with workflow the strategy and the name of the persons are in transaction SU01, you don´t need to put nothing. The release strategy shows the names of the persons that release the document, but if you change one person in the release strategy, the system don´t save history for this, all old documents that have been released for this person, release strategy is blank. You have to do a non standard report that shows what person releases what document.
I hope that this information help you

PO release strategy- order of names

Hi! I have 3 releasers and either of the 3 may release the PO first that's why I did not ticked any prerequisites. However, I would still want the names to appear in a certain order in the PO release tab. How do I control this? Example: the order that I entered in the releasers are: Releaser 21, Releaser 35, Releaser 25. But in the actual PO, the order became Releaser 21, Releaser 25, Releaser 35. I want to change the order, how do I do this? Thanks!

looks like it is alphabetical order, so you would need to add a character for the sequence in the description like
A Releaser 21
B Releaser 35
C Releaser 25
or Relaser 1_21 , Releaser 2_35, Releaser 3_25

CCreate Release Strategy using department name in "Release Code", not User ID SAP.

hi experts...
i wanna create new release strategy, but in part "choose activities => Workflow => assignment of role to release code"
in field Agent ID usually we fill SAP user ID, but i wanna using department name.
is there anyone can help me
thanks,

Hi Raju,
Are you setting release for purchase requisition or purchase order ? If you are setting the release strategy for purchase requisition you need to enter table name as CEBAN and for purchase order give table name as CEKKO.
Enter tcode SE11 and give database table name as CEKKO and choose the appropriate field name for the desired component from here. Do the same with table name CEBAN for pur req.
Hope this was helpful.
Cheers,

User exit ML81N.....Name of user exit to trigger 'Release Strategy'..urgent

Hi Guys,
ML81N work in a manner such that if the net amount for any PO/Service entry is less than $2500 then its 'Release Strategy' tab is not active.
I have a requirement where i have to make that tab active and select the Lowest Release Strategy when the amount is less than $2500.
Can anyone please tell me the name of the user exit that controls the 'Release strategy'.
Points will be awarded...
Thanks
Rahul

Hi
Your settlement rule says "Settle to Cost Center" only.... I dont think any user exit can help in this case, if you want to settle occasioanlly to 2 cost objects
Try with these options
Option A
1. Remove the 100% validation tick in the settlement profile...
2. Maintain 2 settlement rules... i.e. One with Cost center and another with PSG... If any warning comes, ignore it
3. Execute settlement now
Option B
1. Maintain settlement rule with PSG as settlement receiver
2. In the same Settlement rule, Menu GO TO > DETAILS and maintain Cost Center also....
3. Now execute settlement...
Option C
1. Maintain settlement rule with PSG as settlement receiver
2. In the same Settlement rule, populate Cost Center also as a Valid Characteristic
3. Now execute settlement...

Problem in release strategy in a plant PO. Strategy does not appear

Hi:
I have a problem with release strategy in plant PO. When we create a PO in this plant, we have no tab for release strategy, if I change the plant in PO for a different one I get this tab with all data.
I have checked OMGS, CL20N and everything seems to be in order. I think this is a problem in plant definition, but I really donu2019t know where I can look for. This plant is a copy of an existing one, and in this plant there is no problem.
Please, any idea?
Thank you very much in advance.

you can test if one or more strategies can be found. (you should one find one, otherwise SAP is not able to determine which one should be used)
go to CL30N.
Enter your class and class type 032, hit enter
Enter values for the characteristics. and click button for a search in initial class.
I dont think it has something todo with plant customizing. Classification just takes the values that are in your PO and searches for a strategy which has to be in table T16FS.

Release strategy tab not appearing in purchase order

Hi Experts,
I have customized release strategy for purchase order that is created characteristic value & pur organization , created class ,assigned char to class , define rel grp, rel codes , rel strategy and checked everthing is showing in Green in developent client , then i Transported to testing client , here I have created same char & class , assigned & also i have checked in Cl24 N
Now i when i create Purchase order& save it in testing client , Release strategt tab is not appraring in PO
Please help me in thids regardby your valuable suggestions

Hi,
Please check carefully note 365604 on release strategies in purchasing
which includes some common problems with release strategies.
If the trx CL30N is ok, It could be that the release strategy was not determined due
to missing code in the user exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002 in the include
MM06EF0S_STRATEGIE_CEKKO.
In this case the code e_cekko = i_cekko should be missing Please
include this line in your user exit and then retest your scenario.
I hope this helps you

Release Strategy not updated in PR

Hello,
We had a purchase requisition that was released manually via ME54n. The status of the PR is "approved" (which it should be) in the tables in SAP. (We have tables in SAP for the front end portal to view the status of PRs). However, when we look at the PR in me53n, on the release strategy tab at item level, it still shows "release possible". And we are unable to create a PO from that PR.
Not sure why the tables got updated correctly but not in the PR itself in me53n.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,

Thx for reply ...
But here in my case , the status "FOR OVERALL RELEASE" is only being appeared for few PRs, for all other PRs either the status is "IN Release" or "Release Completed".
Although all PRs are subjected to OVERALL Release.
I couldn't identify the reason why only few PRs have "FOR OVERALL RELEASE".Also like to share all such PRs has already been approved by approvers but instead of "Release complete" , system is showing me status "FOR OVERALL Release"
Appreciate if you could let me know the reason for the same.\

Shrey
