  • Version Management - Automatic creation on vew version

    hi experts,
    I have activated in customizing a version management for Purchase Order, but I have the following problem:
    the system doesn't generate a new version of PO when I change the address. I have already defined this field like a print-relevant in Customizing for Purchasing under Messages ® Fields Relevant to Printouts of Changes.
    At the moment a can only see this change in a version display in the current version.
    tkanks a lot
    Mario

    Hi Mario,
    1) Go to SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Version Mgmt-Setup Version Mgmt for External Documents
    Activate Version Mgmt against your Doc type and Double click on that Doc type NB then in next screen in Control data tab mark all the fields and in Field Selection set all the Fields as Required entry Except Posting Date and save.
    2) go to SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Version Mgmt-Define Reasons for change
    Create one New Reason Called Xyz something and give text and save.
    3) Go to SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Version Mgmt-Set up change Displays
    Here Select Doc type say NB and Give Table name say EKPO for PO and EBAN for PR, Give Field name say MENGE for qty and save.
    Now try once.

  • Can JWS be used as a multiple Java version management tool?

    WinNT4 WKS with JRE 1.3.1 - 1.4.2 loaded on it using IExplorer or Netscape.
    We don't have a need for the JWS download features because our clients (and their applications) remain static for the most part. However, we do require multiple JRE version support because our customers have written class/objet "fixes" (mostly for text rendering) and these fixes break if you try and run the application on a different version of Java from which it was written. Basically, we can't have a default JRE on each machine and hope that it will work with all customer applications. So we will load all necessary Java components on our workstations (in this case JRE versions 1.3.1 - 1.4.2). I know that browsers can be forced to load with a specific Plug-in version (providing it exists on the machine) through Object & Embed tags in the HTML and that standalone apps can be directed to the correct Java directory path. My question is, can JWS automatically identify the Java requirements of our customers applications and act simply as a multi-version management tool to provide the right JRE/Plug-In for either standalone or browser applications? Keeping in mind that all the JREs will be loaded on the workstions and it won't need to download any components from some site.
    I've noticed that JWS identifies all JREs loaded on a machine in the Java tab so I'm wondering if it can "switch" the environment as needed for each application.
    Does anyone know if I can use JWS in the scenario I described above? Thanks!

    JWS can manage the multiple JREs installed if you run the application through a .jnlp. This can not "switch" the default JRE. It runs the application specified in the .jnlp using the requested version specified in the .jnlp.
    JWS does not apply to applets. You should use the object tags as you mentioned below.
    ...can JWS automatically identify the Java requirements of our customers applications
    No. You must determine this and setup the .jnlp appropriately.

  • Version Management

    Dear Sirs,
    We have activated version management for purchase orders. 
    Purchase Orders are made in the system and printout of the same are being taken from the print preview screen before the release of the PO.
    If some changes are made in the PO after the release of the PO, the sytem does not activate the version management.  Reason: no messages were issued after the release of PO. 
    Is it possible that when a print out is taken, the system automatically processes the output message, whether the PO is released or not.
    Viral Bhinde

    Hi Viral,
    I got ur problem.
    As you said when you make changes to PO system set new release strategy as well as new version. It is expected that whenever there are changes in PO it should be communicatted to Vendor thru PO print.
    In your case ur PO created new version as well as new release strategy. And you tried to take print before PO release. Please first release the PO and take print thru ME9F. That message will disappear.
    Plz let us know if there is further problem.
    Thanks

    Field nameZTERM(payment terms field),,TableMEPO1226
    Category--A or B for selection of change documents
    No out put--if i tick it concern field will not included in change doc
    Version--what is the purpose
    Please suggest me
    1) we need enter the all the field names in the item over view and item details and Header level fields as given above ,is it correct.
    2) And with regard to Table, do i enter for Header level fields-EKKO or  MEPO1226 which is available in F1 under techinical information,
    for item level fields,shall i enter table name-EKPO or MEPO1211as dispalyed in the F1 under techinical information.

    5) After changes are made in Purchase order,first time on saving the PO,version is creating automatically,
    second time,if we do changes, version is not creating on saving the purchase order,what configuration needs to be done.
    Please suggest.
    Regards,

    Also tell me the use of *Display of change documents in PO*.
    It will display changes made both in item & header.It will help you to audit all changes made in p.o after it is raised.
    In version management not all changes can be ameneded as seperate versions
    only critical changes like price revision,quantity revision.

  • Version management in RFQ not working

    i have configured the version management for RFQ. When i create a RFQ, version 0 is not completed. even though i can maintain quotation and as well as create a Purchase order. system does not throw any message that purchasing document version is in process as we have in PO. Kindly guide me.
    Johi Kapoor

    No i dont want version 0 to be automatically ticked as completed. client want to manuals tick the version. client requirement is verion 0 is not ok, why the system is allowing to maintain that quotation or allowing to create a po with reference to that rfq.
    need any settings for this.

  • Version management for POs

    Dear friends,
    Iam implimenting Version management for purchase orders.I have got doubts like;
    1)---In IMG side ,under setup change displays node, we need to enter all the field names of purchase order document type wise, ..i.e.
    we have got three doc.types of POs,NB,ZCP,ZCO,then Header and item details fields of PO shall be entered against each doc.type in this node.
    like -NB-EKPO---MATNR
    NB-EKKO-field
    We need to enter tables as EKKO and EKPO and
    all the fileds are to be entered for all the doc.types.
    we need to enter all the fields including header fields and item fields ,
    2)----For header fields,if i change the data,version is not creating,
    3)--At item details ,after release of the PO,if i change the data,if i save the document,it is saving without automatically closing the version.We need to manually close the version.
    I have given error category E for application MEDCM for 14,19,22,eventhough system is not giving error.
    Atleast provision should be there to give error if user doesnot close the version manually.
    Please suggest for my doubts.
    Regards,
    Magana

    Hi
    For a combination of purchasing organization, document category, and document type, you can:
    <b>Activate version management</b>
    If version management is active, changes to a purchasing document are managed in versions.
    <b>Define field selection for versions</b>
    You can specify the attributes certain fields of the version are to have: mandatory entry, optional entry, display only, field suppressed.
    Set the message ststus as follows
    MEDCM     014     Purchasing document &, version & in process     W
    MEDCM     019     Purchasing document &, version 0, still in process     E
    MEDCM     021     Not all version-relevant changes were cancelled (&1)     W
    MEDCM     023     No unprocessed message exists                         W
    System will  allow  to manually close the version .Version 0 will be set automatically .After that system will allow to manually close the version.
    I dont think you will face probelm.

  • Version Management active for Release Purchase Orders

    Hi Friends
    We activated Version Management for Purchasing documents. Version 0
    activates automatically when we create PO / contract. After final
    release version will be closed automatically.
    When ever new version is active we could able to make release orders.
    When we make message no.MEDCM014 to error, we could not to do. But we
    want release orders should be make up to old value.
    Can we do with some user exit or BADI for this purpose.

  • NO Version Management in SAP BPC-is it in SAP BPC7.0 NW AND/OR SAP BPC70 MS

    All,
       As far as I know SAP BPC doest not have versions management. How you guys out there handle version management for SAP BPC. Do we have VM on SAP BPC 7.0 NW?
    Why  there is no VM in BPC.  Come on convince me : - )
    Thanks,
    SK

    Guys,
    What is the verdict on Version Management being there in BPC? Can you (Saquib or others) give an example as to what Version Management functionality you might be looking for?
    From the little I know, when you are doing software development through lifecycle (in SAP it would be called Transport strategy) management, you promote different changes in the target system and hence SAP has an implicit version management. I am assuming that BPC 7.0 NW version would have that automatically since it is promoted through transport strategy only. Are you referring to the same thing as version management or is it something else? But I also read somewhere that only appset is promoted through transport and not sure if each and every component is part of that.
    Please enlighten with your insighs.
    Thanks.

  • BI 4.1 Version Management - Change copy of version name

    Dear Experts
    I wondered if there is a possibility to change the "get copy of version" name of a Web Intelligence report.
    When there is the need of changing a report I make the changes and I click on "Checkin" to ensure that the latest version of the cms is under version control. Now often the newest report is not the report currently used by the customer because the newest version has not been tested yet for example.
    Therefore it is necessary sometimes to promote an old version of this specific report. I then click on history and choose the desired revision number and finally click on "Get copy of version". This action provides a report out of version control which can then be promoted accross the systems. The problem now is that the filename ends with a string containing something like "<reportname>(Copy of Version 2 @ 2014/06/11 11:41:24)".
    Is it possible to change this string which is beeing automatically added to the filename? For example to "<reportname>_<revisionnumber>". Or even better: Are there any other ideas to handle the version management in interaction with promotion management?
    Thank you
    Lars

    At this time you cannot change the name automatically. You can suggest an idea in idea place.

  • Basic Version Management

    I would like to see basic version management functionality built into LR. This would allow the user to not only create different versions of an image, but keep track of their relationships and status.
    As a fine art nature photographer, I might have an original RAW file, a PSD master file, a series of TIFFs optimized for various print sizes, a JPEG for my web gallery, and maybe a different JPEG for slideshows. I can stack these together, but LR doesn't allow me to relate them as different versions of the same image or keep track of their status (maybe the TIFF for a 16x20 print needs more work, but the 11x14 is done).
    Ideally, the Version Management would allow the user to set up a list of version types and statuses. Image versions could be moved from one status to another manually or automatically based on rules. An interactive chart could display the version relationships and allow the user to change statuses quickly.
    Different versioning templates would be needed for different types of workflow. One might be used in the above example of a landscape photo that has multiple output types and sizes. A different template would be needed for a panorama built from multiple original images but going to the similar types of output.
    Full-featured version management might be best left to a 3rd party module, but the versioning and status information would have to be kept in the LR database.
    Brent Gilstrap

    Jeff,
    First may I say, "Thank You" for the excellent LR video tutorial you did with Michael Reichmann. That got me up and running much faster than I expected!
    And thank you for taking the time to reply to my request. Getting back to version management, I must disagree with you that this is a simply an old vs. new workflow issue. This is about letting me work around the limitations of LR.
    I don't know about you, but I sharpen somewhat differently for different size prints and for different papers. I also print colored borders on many of my prints - the width of the border varies with the print size (and is well beyond the 20pt maximum stroke border in LR). Also, as I use the ImagePrint RIP and often wish to print borderless on roll paper - at times I must go outside the LR print module to get the print output I want (LR + PTAPP does not support borderless on roll paper yet).
    I can't imagine that LR will ever be feature-rich or smart enough to support everything I want from within the Develop and Print Modules. Ok, I CAN imagine it, but I'm not expecting mass-marketed software to meet all of my needs. Once LR has expert sharpening & noise reduction, soft proofing, more flexible print borders, etc... I'll re-evaluate the situation.
    For now and the foreseeable future, I will need multiple physical files for print output. I can stack these to group them with the original RAW file - but LR would be so much more useful to me if it could also keep track of the use and status of these different files.
    Based on your reply... I'm thinking I'm going to have to develop a Version Management module for LR myself. If only LR had scripting. Doh!

  • ME22N - Version Management

    HI All,
    We are using R/3 4.7EE
    In Tcode ME22n, we activated "Version management". Now our intention is to make the checkbox checked by default under the column "Completed". The field name is 'REVOK' of the structure EREVGRID.
    The reason behind is " if make this check box "completed" to be checked by default then the VERSION will be completed automatically. Otherwise there is chance that ENDUSER may bypass this activity and VERSION will not be completed."
    Hope I am clear.
    Please suggest me how to proceed for this.
    Thanks,
    Ravindra.

    Dear All,
    I have found the solution for the above discussed problem.
    Please use the following logic in the user exit EXIT_SAPMM06E_017 in enhancement MM06E005 (T-Code - SMOD).
    IF sy-tcode = 'ME22N'.
    IF sy-ucomm = 'MECHECKDOC' OR sy-ucomm = 'MESAVE' OR sy-ucomm = 'YES'. "Added Cndition for BACK/EXIT - SEDK943636
    IF i_ekko-procstat = '01'.
    MESSAGE 'Please tick the Version Completed in Version Tab' TYPE 'E'.

    ENDIF.
    It is giving error message whenever new version is created and the version completed is not checked.

  • Version Management on PR with Release Strategy

    We are using Release Strategies on PR, along them Version Management activation is also required. All configuration have been done, Versions are automatically triggering in PR's without release, however in PR with release new version is not reflecting, every change is going in Version 0.
    Suggestion is required...
    Full points will be awarded.

    Refer the note 664928
    You change a purchase requisition. Why does the system not generate a new version?
    Answer:
    The system always creates a new version when the purchase requisition reaches a final processing state. These are the following processing states:
    Active, if no release is used
    Release completed, if the release is used
    Only the following changes to a purchase requisition lead to a new version:
    All version-relevant changes (defined in purchasing Customizing under -> Version Management -> Version-Relevant Fields of Purchase Requisition)
    Changes to the document assignment
