Combine item-release & head-release PR

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to combine the two workflows for PR-release.
(header-release and item-release)
The requirement is the following : The user creates a PR, and the flow for item-release is triggered. If every item has been approved, a second flow should be started for an overall release on total amount of the pr..
Is this possible ?
thanks in advance !!

Hi Kjetil,
sorry to react this late, I was on another project and didn 't had the chance to catch up on the issue.
I'm afraid it isn 't possible. I find it a bit a strange request from the client also. Requirement is that first, there's a workflow triggered based on material group (item), and after this is ok, a second flow is triggered on total amount of the PR.
The problem is that, when you want a header-release, Overall release of purchase requisitions has to be checked, and when this is checked,it 's not possible to use item-release.
I'll search further on this matter. But whenever there's someone who has an idea to solve this, please let me know.. It will be appreciated

PR item Release with Workflow

Hi All,
If anybody has worked on PR item release with Work-flow please share the process ...i know how to set up the PR release strategy but not aware of Work-flow setting...If anybody has the document please share......
I searched a lot in the Forum...but not getting the correct information..
Thanks in advance

Hi John,
The standard workflow template provided by SAP for PR Release item level is WS00000038. You can view workflow in transaction SWDD. You need to activate this template in basic data from u201Cstart eventsu201D tab.
In order to send notification mails from SAP to other services, such as Outlook, Lotus Notes etc, you need to configure SCOT.

EPRTRANS - PR items release strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working in SRM 5.0, ECS, backend ECC 6.0.
I need to set up the 'Plan Driven Procurement scenario'.
In ECC I created entries in V_T160EX and V_T160PR and I have mantained TBE11 and TBE31 accordingly to SAP note 656597.
I used ME51N to create a purchase requisition (without items release strategy) which is getting copied to EPRTRANS table.
A purchase requisitions (with items release strategy) is getting copied to EPRTRANS table when I Save the PR?
or when I release the single items?

Thanks in advance

Hi Disha,
you said:
The table EPRTRANS will be populated only when all the items(which have a release strategy) in the PR will be released.
Do you mean that if a PR contains two items (both with release strategy) and only the first has been released, EPRTRANS will not be populated until I release the second item?
Is that correct?
Thanks in advance

Item release bottom in Contract Service

HI
Experts, I´m using Contract Service trx. to be used in Service trx (Support Message). This service contract make used of Service Product (SLA) via Item, but I can´t release this Item, the botton "Item Realease" is not active in the Contract Service, and as you it is a prerequisite to release the item in contract for being determinate in any Service trx.
The only status options I have is "Open", "In process" o "Completed" but Item Release is not selected.
Could someone tell me if there is a missing customizing???
I´m using 4.0 and I read in "Service desk aditional information doc." that is a condition for Contract Service determination in 3.2 release.
I reaward good points

Hi,
This is the system status which comes with item object types like
BUS2000137 CRM Service contract item
BUS2000140 CRM Service product item
You do not need any customization for this, this is the standard
For any additional status to be setup othe than this, you need to define User status profile in IMG.

Workflow for Requisition item Release

Hi All,
I need to create a workflow for Requisition item Release but I wish to receive one work item for the whole requisition and not for each item
and the method of the task will be collective release (leads to me55) so that the user can choose which item to release. Is that possible?
Thanks and Regards,
Inbal

Hi All,
I think i found the answer but i need help to do it.
Every time a work item is created, the system needs to check if there is another work item with the same Requisition No. and same release code in status=ready.
If not, it will send the work item.
result:
The first work item (first line in Requisition) will be sent, and as for the others (other lines in Requisition), as long as there is no work item with the same Requisition No. and same release code in status 'ready' the system will send it.
Anybody can help me?

How can I have the pricing conditions at the item and header level of the d

How can I have the pricing conditions at the item and header level of the delivery? There exist "condition" tabs both the header and the item level of the delivery but the contents of the tabs are empty. I'll be happy if you can help me. Thanks in advance....

Hi
If you want to have the pricing procedure at delivery level then you need to assign a pricing procedure at delivery level also
Just go through the path to maintain the pricing procedure at delivery level.
IMG -> Logistics execution -> Shipping -> Basic Shipping Functions -> Pricing -> Pricing Procedure. for Delivery.
But can you be more clear if the above one is not your query ?

Item line heading

Hi,
i need to print item line heading for each new page.
I have only one window, main in the page and i have line items in the same window. I'm trigerring different sections using text elements. when the line item doesn't fit in the page its getting printed in the next page, which is the desired funct.
however, when it goes to the next page , i need to print item header for every new page. can someone let me know how i can do this with out making any changes to the layout.
Thanks,
kumar.

this can be done in different ways...
If you can modify the layout create a window and place the headings in this new window and call this window in all form pages.
If you can modify the driver program, it can be done by using text elements.
if you don't want to modify layout and program, try this below code...
place your item hedings in main window...
apply the follow ing logic...
Example..
if &temp& NE &nextpage&
flag = 'Y'.
endif.
If flag = 'Y'. " note set flag = 'y' for first time
temp = page.
Headings goes here
flag = 'N'.
endif.
***line items goes here.....
try the rough example given above. close the thread once your question is answered.

Frieght condition in item wise & Header wise.

Dear sir,
I have defined a fright condition FRB1 . I have created this condition type as both header wise & item wise in M/06
also selected C for manual entry .
but now when i am giving fright condition suppose 200 in header in distribute value 50 in all 4 line item.
now i want to change in 3rd line item so that time this fileds come gray.
please guide me how i can change this condition in item for one particular line item.

Hi,
If you want to distribute the Freight condition from header input to equal to each line item in item level.You have to tick the item and header condition in frt cond type and tick for group condition.
If you want to change the frt cond in any line item after distributuin of frt in each line item it is not possible as the cond value flows from header level to each item, so you cannot change the same for one particular line item.
So better remove the tick for header and make the codn as item only so that you can add the cond value for which ever line item

Items released automatically first come basis

We are using FIFO method in SAP 2005B. I need to release the open items automatically first come first basis and don't allow to select the newly arrived items when the old one exists. Those who have an answer give me a solution immediately.

Thanks for replying. I know that. But I need to release the items in the received orderwise only. Is it possible?
For Ex. I received X items is 10 qty on 29.06.09 @ 15.00
             I received X items is 5 qty on 30.06.09   @ 20.00
             I am issuing 2 items from 5 qty which is received on 30.06.09 instead of 10 qty which is received on 29.06.09.
             How It is correct to select an item? Can u explain that?

PR item release workflow issue

Hi All,
I have 1 issue with PR item workflow. We have PR itme based workflow with different agents for each line item.
The issue is when approver goes to execute the work item, all the other items are available to the approver to edit or release other items as well. We want to disable other items being available to the approver for which he is not the approver.
Thanks and Regards,
Srikar

Hi Srikar,
You can do this by using parallel processing in workflows. I am giving you the scenaio we use. We use this in invoices with multiple line items.
This scenario is implemented using a sub workflow. In the main workflow when you insert a multistep task, go to "Miscellaneous" tab to implement parallel dynamic processing. here you have to pass a multi line container element containing line item numbers. Your sub workflow will trigger one for each entry in multi line element. Do not do any changes to you PR object with in Sub Workflow just get the results of decisions taken by user back to main workflow. Like (App - for approval, Rel - For release, Rej - for rejecetion, etc). When you have all decision collected and returned to main workflow, pass the results in a multi line container element to an activity. Then based on results decide weather you want to release or reject.
Doing this if one person releases his line item, it will not effect the other workitems which have gone to other approvers.
We do agent assignment based on profit centers.
Best of luck.

Sale order : item release authorisation

hi friends,
our bussiness requirement, from the sale order they want to release the item level authorisation ..
based on manager approval to release the item ,then only item moving for production.

Hi Code,
I do not think it is possible with an every individual line item.If you want to authorize for total sales order use workflow or any other checks.

Stock Item Release Date not populated in Webtools

I am looking to alert Online purchases of products that are shown in webtools ( i.e. Active = 'Y') that are not immediately available at a date in the future.
It is not possible to use the Valid From Date because this controls the initial visibility of the item in webtools.
There is a UDF inserted by the Plugin ( I think ) Call ed Release date, however populating this field does not cause the 'ReleaseDate' field in PartsMaster Table to be updated.
Assuming this can be achieved can someone advise briefly as to how this data can be populated on the relevant aspx page(s)
If there is a better way of achieving the same thing - suggestions welcome. The customer wants to control this data from B1 rather then in WT.
Thanks

Hello Bryce,
That's interesting what exactly do you mean by batch job? I presume some scheduled stored procedure with a update clause. Up until now I had thought that synch plugin was the only solution and hadn't tried writing my own yet but given the two SQL servers have to be able to communicate with each other why or exactly when would a batch job not be practical for this sort of thing. Is this only really appropriate for uni-directional updates ( i.e. B1 to WT )?
Or am I missing something here?

Intercompany billing for 3rd party items - release 4.7

Hello,
I have a scenario where I would expect an inter-company bill (Sales org belongs to company code A, plant to company code B), however, since this is a Third Party Scenario (item category TAS), no inter-company billing is possible. I tried billing the order as well as the inbound delivery, but no IV document is being created. I would expect an inter-company bill from company B, who got billed from the Third Party vendor) to company A, who made the sale.
Upon receipt of the 856 IDOC (ASN), the system creates an inbound delivery (type EL), however, LIKP does not have the necessary fields filled for IC billing (VKOIV (selling sales org.) etc.), nor does the delivery item show any billing relevance status.
I have tried numerous things, such as making the delivery item category (ELN) relevant for billing (tried A and D) and maintaining copy control between EL and billing type IV.
Does anybody know, if it is possible to create an inter-company bill in a Third Party scenario (i. e. no outbound delivery, only an inbound delivery gets created upon receipt of the ASN)?
We are in release 4.7.
Thanks!

As Third Party Scenario is Order Related Billing, Intercompany Billing is not supported as Delivery Related Billing.
In Order Related Billing, you require to map the same scenario for Inter Company Billing. For Eg: OR is normal sales order used for sale to end customer & Billing is F1 for Distribution Channel Domestic (01) or Export (02), similarly ZOR can be mapped as Intercompany Sales Order Type with Billing Type ZF1 for Distribution Channel Intercompany sales (03).
The above is a work around as Intercompany Billing is not supported in Order Related Billing.

Purchase Requisition Item release not in the change log of the item

Hello Experts,
I have developed a report that displays when purchase requistions have been relesased. To do that, I have used the change table to track the time and date.
However, a lot of the requistions do not have the release as a change. I am not able to recreate it, and I am not able to point at anything special with the ones that does not have a change log.
Have anybody else experienced this? I am a bit stuck
rgds
GAR

has there been a change in the release strategy cusotmizing. maybe the PR was not subject to a release as it was created, but new PRs of the same kind are subject because of this change in customizing?
There are not many possibilities:
a) PR was not subject to release strategy
b) release indicator got cleared by own program or table maintenance
c) program bug (never saw one for change history of PRs)
do you use workflow for releasing? if yes then you can check the log of the workflow item and proof the evidence for a program bug.
