Customizing steps of workflow for Release strategy
Hi Experts,
Iam looking for step by step customizing details of workflow for Release Strategy for Purchase Requisition.
I need necessary classification and Customizing settings for a release procedure in the purchase requisition to the workflow.
I am looking for the steps, in which the purchase requisition can be edited straight from the workflow inbox.
Regards
Nani
Hi Nani,
First you have to confirm what kind of release it is in Purchase req you have Item level release and over all release.
Item level release - WS00000038
Over all Release - WS20000077
Now please confirm with your MM consultant that he has done the release Strategy and tesed it Ok.
Escecially things like assigning plant, Assigning Agents,Release codes and so on when everything is done by him in SPRO.
Now your work starts If it is just release use the standard workflow.
If they need additional notification mails and things like that copy the standard workflow and do the customization in the copied version and deactivate the standard workflow.
You can also do dead line monitering (Factory Calander) and many more things.
also please go through these 2 links you will get better idea.

Dear All,
PLz let us know the step by step procedure for worflow for release strategy.

Arati.Hello Arati,
Please see that you have maintained the release strategy and the same is getting affected in the PO.
In PO -> Header Data -> Release Strategy (Last Tab) please check the Release Strategy and Release Grp.
Now go to T - Code /nPFAC .. and enter the ID as 90100005 (PO Approver) and click on display.
After this on the new screen there are different tabs.. in that click on last (fourth) tab: Responsibilities.
There you will find responsibilities IDs assigned to each release strategy and Release grp.. of you cant see the same please adjust the layout.
once you get the responsisbilities ID there for the referenced Release Strategy and Release Grp then go to T - Code /nPP01.
There you need to do the maping. in the first field it please enter Responsibility and second tab you can put the same responsibility ID whihc u obtained from /nPFAC.
Then select on applications and then click on new.. n there you can assign the user as a approver. Please check that proper authorization si also given to a user who is mapped for the release strategy...
Let me know if any confusion ...
Thanks And Regards,

PO Workflow for release strategy approval process (BUS2012)
Hi Experts,
I have configured a workflow that should get triggered by the event "RELEASESTEPCREATED" in the Business Object BUS2012.
The workflow is triggering perfectly and is working exactly as per the requirement, but the problem I am facing is the event "RELEASESTEPCREATED" is getting triggered twice.
I went to SWEL and saw that the above event is getting triggered twice by the system. I am not calling the event in any user exit. I have de-activated the event linkage in the standard workflow. Only my custom workflow link is active.
Due to this all my workitems, mails are getting duplicated as the workflow is being called twice.
I just need to know, why the event is getting triggered twice in the system.
If you need more details in the issue, I will provide that.
Your help is highly appreciated. Points will be awarded to the helpful answers.
Thanks
AnirbanHello,
First off a small comment on terminology because a lot of people say this:
Events are not triggered, they are raised or published by the application (regardless of workflow). An event is the trigger for a workflow.
Now we have that cleared up, have a look at the workflows that are triggered by your events and check the container to determine the release codes for each workflow. It seems to me like you are probably processing two different release codes at the same time. This could be perfectly normal (e.g. you may want to perform two approvals at the same time) and is controlled by the MM config for the release strategy. If this is not what you want then this should be adjusted by your friendly MM people.
Cheers,

PR Workflow for release strategy
Hi,
Could you please let me know the steps how to configure the workflow for the PR release strategy for both item level as well as header level.
Thanks in advance
ShpHello,
If you wish to work with procedure 1, define the following:
Release codes
Release indicators
Assignment of release indicators
Release prerequisites
Determination of release strategy
1. Release codes
Create the release codes.
2. Release indicators
Define release indicators and branch to the detail screen. Here you define whether fixed purchase requisitions may be changed by Materials Planning, for example, and whether an RFQ or a purchase order may be created from the requisition.
You can also determine the field selection here.
In the area "Changes after the start of the release procedure", you specify whether a requisition may be changed after the release procedure has begun. You specify whether the strategy has to be redetermined after changes, or whether the release procedure has to start all over again from the beginning.
This parameter bears a relation to the parameter "Value change". For example, previous releases are not cancelled if the value of the requisition item after the change does not exceed plus 10% of its original value.
Attention:
Be sure to create a release indicator (e.g. B for "blocked") that serves as the starting point for subsequent indicators. Do not set the indicators for release for the issue of RFQs and PO on the detail screen for this indicator.
Also create a release indicator characterizing the released status. Set the indicators for release for the issue of RFQs and PO on the detail screen.
3. Assignment of release indicators
Assign a release indicator in dependence on the status of the release.
Example:
You create a release strategy S1 consisting of two release codes 01 and 02. Release with 01 is a prerequisite for release with 02. If release has been effected with 01, the requisition has been given the "all clear" for the issue of RFQs.
You have created the release indicators B (blocked), 1 (cleared for issue of RFQs) and 2 (cleared for RFQs and PO).
Now enter the following as assignment:
Strategy C1 C2 C3 ...
S1 B (blocked)
S1 X 1 (RFQ)
S1 X X 2 (RFQ/PO)
4. Release prerequisites
Define which release codes are involved in a release strategy. Specify whether a code is set for a release status following release, and whether one release status is a prerequisite for another (+).
Example:
Strategy Code C1 C2 C3 ...
S1 01 X
S1 02 + X
5. Determination of the release strategy
Determine the conditions under which each release strategy is assigned. The criteria are account assignment category, material group, plant, and value of the requisition item. -

Standard n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order in sap 4.7?
Hello friend,
In SAP 4.7 there is any standard template for n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order.
thanks in advance.Hi AM,
there is no std template for n-step approvals but for Single Release.
What you could do is create a custom one as per the number of approvals for PO.
Also note a PO Release Strategy can handle only 8 levels of approval.
Hope it helps.

EXIT_SAPLEBND_002 -- user exit for release strategy
Hi,
This is regarding help on user exit for release strategy, ref: note no. 365604, however after going through all the config part given in the given note we activate the fm in cmod.... but after activating the release tab goes off from me29n.
That is after you activate in cmod and then if u create po and go to me29n the relese tab is not there.
if u deactivate and create po and then relese the release tab in me29 would appear.
All we are trying is that the po in me29n should be open to release again if we change the delivery date. However what coding and how is still a second step , first is as soon as the exit is active the tab goes off.
New to user exit . plz help.Hi Again,
I guess I have solved the issue temporarily, however Am not sure if this is the best which cld be doen to the issue.
I didnt make any new characteristics in ct04, for the delivery dats since i didn't want to restrict the delivery date. All I did i yje coding below in the exit :
DATA wa_eket TYPE LINE OF mmpur_beket.
DATA wa_eket1 TYPE LINE OF mmpur_beket.
data: c type i.
data: p type i.
break1.
break2.
e_cekko = i_cekko.
loop at it_beket into wa_eket . " for comparing previous and the current del date
e_cekko-usrc1 = wa_eket-eindt.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM eket INTO wa_eket1 WHERE ebeln = wa_eket-ebeln
AND ebelp = wa_eket-ebelp.
if wa_eket1-eindt <> wa_eket-eindt.
import c from memory id 'CID'.
c = c + 1.
clear p.
p = c mod 2.
if p is not initial. " adding 0.01 to the characteristic value for p.o amt.
e_cekko-GNETW = e_cekko-GNETW + '0.01'.
else.
e_cekko-GNETW = e_cekko-GNETW - '0.01'.
export c to memory id 'CID'.
endif.
endif.
endloop.
The logic I tried using is since the relese gets reset incase of p.o amnt and hence indirectly po amnt so i changed the value of p.o value by 0.01 incase of change in delivery date. cekok-gnetw doesnt reflect anywhere in the p.o as amnt, I guess its for defing range for relese stragey's amont in ct04 characteristics.
However anything better incase u know plz let me know, or do u think this can cause any problems later....new to exits.
Rgds,
