Edit Workflow Mailer - Purchase Order Email Subject

Hi,
We have configured the workflow mailer to enable reminders to be sent out to approvers which relate to Purchase Order approvals that have not been responded to.
However, as well as a reminder email being sent, there is also an email telling the approver that the previous email has been canceled. This has a the email subject prefixed with "Canceled:"
Our problem is that users are seeing this and thinking that the Purchase Order has been cancelled. We therefore want to either edit the subject of this email, or stop it being sent.
Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John

I think this mail is sent by the workflow mailer using the item type System Mailer. This is auto generated notification when the notification itself is canceled or retired. You can customize the subject there based on the source.
Thanks

Purchase Order not subject to release strategy

Good day everyone!
I've created one release strategy for all my purchasing documents. The characteristic is net value, and the value of this characteristic is >=0.00. Meaning, ALL purchase orders are subject to release strategy.
After I did the release strategy in SPRO, I created a few PO and when I tried to release them, I got this message: "Purchasing document 45xxxxxxxx not subject to release strategy".
My question is: How to assign purchasing document to release strategy?
Please help. Thank you in advance.

hi
yes you have to use table CEKKO for PO release strategy , now , in PO you can't create without clasification so it will be applicabe for whole PO not for line items ,
now below i am giving u one by one steps , follow and let me know .
The release code is a two-character ID allowing a person to release (clear, or approve) a requisition or an external purchasing document. The release codes is basically controlled via a system of authorizations (authorization object M_EINK_FRG).
Use SE12, structure CEKKO to check all the fields available for controlling the Purchase Order.
e.g. If the total value for the Purchase Order exceeds 10,000, release strategy 01 is assigned to the Purchase Order. There is only one characteristic created in this example. For controlling the Purchase Order type, create characteristic for CEKKO-BSTYP and the value NB.
CT04 - Create Characteristic   e.g. NETVALUE
Click Additional data Table name CEKKO      Field name GNETW    and press enter
(for currency dependent field, you are prompt to enter the currency which the system then converts the currency of the Purchasing document into this currency)
In the Basic data (X refers to tick),
X    Mutliple values
X    Interval values
In the Value data, in the Char. value column, type >10000 and press enter
Save your data
CL02 - Class
Class - Create REL_PUR
Class type - 032
Click Create
Description - Release Procedure for Purchase Order
In the Same Classification section, click Check with error
In the Char. (characteristic) tab, type NETVALUE to assign your characteristics to the class
OMGS - Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order Type
Release Group - New entries
Rel.group   Rel. Object   Class                 Description
02                                 REL_PUR        Rel. Strategy for PO
Release codes - New entries
Grp         Code
02           01
Release indicators
Release indicators           Release        Description
      0                                                        Blocked
      1                                     X                Release
Release Strategy
Release group   02
Rel.strategy    01
Release codes   01
Release status   0
                        1
Classification   Choose your check values
OMGSCK - Check Release Strategies
(make sure there are no error messages)
Once the Purchase Order is not release, buyers will not be able to print the Purchase Order.
Goods Receipts will be shown with Message no. ME 390 - Purchasing document XXXXXXX not yet released.
In 4.6c, Purchase Order with Release Strategy have a tabs at the end of the Header. This allowed the buyers to check the release status of the Purchase Order.
The person with the release authorization have to use ME28 to release the Purchase Order.

Purchase Order not subject to release strategy for contract rel. strategy

Hello, I am trying to set release strategy for contracts (TCODE: ME31K). I have created characteristic, which use table CEKKO and field name BSTYP in Addnl data tab. I have checked values, and they are correct. Then I have assigned in release strategies in classification view value contract. But when I try to check release strategy in ME31K with green flag, it display error: Purchase Order not subject to release strategy. (I have tried to do the same strategy in purchase order, of course with value Purchase order, and it works nice).
So I have checked this release strategy with this codes:
CL24N ok,
CT04 ok,
CL30N ok,
CL20N ok,
Release simulation in release strategy works,
Then I found out that I should check SE38, SE37 but I do not understand how to use them (according: Purchasing Document Not Subject to Release Strategy).
Thank you for your help in advance.

I haven't said to use EKPO table in characteristics. You have to use CEKKO - BSTYP in characteristics.
I've just said the compare the value which you have given in Release strategy - Classification and EKPO table for the particular contract.
Also compare your release strategy settings with many existing documents in SCN.
Check your Classification should be like that.
You may see the error message in ME31K. Just save the contract then go to ME32K/ME33K or ME35K you can see the release strategy will effect for the contract.

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
Release of Purchase Order :WS20000075
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,

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.

E-Mail Purchase Order - Text and PDF to include EKKO-EBELN

Hi All,
I am triggering purchase order layouts via E-mail. I want the e-mail subject line to have some static text whilst referencing the PO number (EKKO-EBELN).
I also want the PDF file to be called include the same text and reference number
How can I include EKKO-EBELN?
Is this something that I can simply add to the text line &ekko-ebeln& or do I have to build the rule into the processing program and entry form
Points will be rewarded
Cheers
Steve

The vendor e-mail address is picked up from the master data and the purchaser's e-mail would be picked up from their user account. The problem is that I don't know at what stage in the program SAPFM06P, used for sending the purchase order, I could set up the distribution list.
If I set the vendor address to name.address@somewhere; name2.address@somewhere else this works and both name and name2 receive the e-mail. But it would mean the purchasers ammending the vendor e-mail address each time, which just isn't practical.
I probably should have said that I'm using SAP version 46c and the e-mail is sent using standard SAP settings for 5-External send using program SAPFM06P and form MEDRUCK.
Thanks for the advice

Purchase Order email is not triggering

Dear Sir,
We have done all configuration step related to sending of external email for Purchase Order . But email is not triggering . We have also tested the SAPConnect , by sending a test mail using tcode SBWP and it is working ok .
After saving of PO (using ME22n) , We are getting following screen , but email is not triggering (in tcode SOST , we find no send request generated). We have maintained email id in XK02 for the Vendor also .
The configuration maintained is detailed in the attached file .
We request forum members to kindly help us for the problem resolution please.
With Regards
B Mittal

Hi Mr Florian
Thanks for reply .
Now Email is getting triggered only if the Program-Name mentioned is Std one i.e "SAPFM06P" . But We change it to our customized one "ZSAPFM06P" then Email is not triggering .
I request forum members to kindly help me please .
With Regards

Purchase order emails are sent from SAP without attachment.

In SAP Business One, the user goes to Purchase order > clicks on the email icon >"Would you like to attach an edited report to the email?' > Yes > Send > Email is sent to the vendor.
If the connection to the B1SHR(mapped to network drive under general settings) was temporarily lost for a minute, the attachment is not saved.
Unfortunately, SAP allows you to proceed to send the email and does not alert you to the fact that the attachment was not saved.
Is there any setting in SAPB1 to get an error message when this occurs? Has anyone else come across this problem before?

Maeve,
There is no setting in Business One to activate an error on this type of event.
I have run across a similar issue before.
Unfortunately if connectivity to the shared folder is lost during the saving process, B1 will not be able to throw an error due to the fact that as far as the application is concerned it has completed the task successfully.
If your users are experiencing this type of connection loss on a fairly regular basis, it may be something that needs to be addressed by the network administrator, IT dept., or Internet service provider(if they are connecting separately from the local network).
Otherwise, users would need to manually verify that the attachment was saved prior to sending the email.
I hope this has helped.
Kind regards,
Lucas

Workflow for Purchase Order Form?

I am setting up a paperless Purchase Order system at my company.
A Purchase Order form has been created in Acrobat with spaces for 4 digital signatures.
There is a network filesystem where a copy of the form can be stored and completed copies of the form placed. Preferably, a copy of the form will be retrieved from the server, then emailed through the signature process.
The Workflow:
1. A user obtains a copy of the PO form, fills it out, digitally signs the form and sends it to their supervisor for approval by email (preferred) or by placing the form in a shared directory.
2. The supervisor digitally signs the PO and sends it to their Manager.
3, The Manager digitally signs the PO and sends it to the approval authority.
4. The approval authority digitally signs the PO and forwards the form to the purchasing department for placement.
There are about 100 users, 20 supervisors, 5 Managers and 1 Approval Authority.
How would this workflow be implemented? What I have found so far is examples where 1 form is distributed to a number of people, filled out and returned, collated and reviewed. I been unable to find any examples of this type of workflow.
Any suggestions?
Dennis

It's not that difficult. I think there is only one entry for the object and event you use in your workflow.
If you would have done a little searching in this forum you would have had your answer already.

Martin
