How to have more than 8 release code for a release strategy

Hi,
In standard only 8 level of release is possible for a release strategy. Our client requires more than 8 levels i.e., more than 8 release codes for a release strategy. How can we achieve this?
Pls provide your views/ideas.
Reards,

Hello,
In case you require more than 8 levels in release strategy , write to SAP, maybe they could give a fitting reply.
By the way , 8 levels of release should be more than enough . Try to incorporate the client business process
within this.

User exit for triggering release strategy

Hello Experts,
My requirement is when changes are made in purchase order (ME22N) then once again release strategy will have to get trigger.
is the user exits exists for this purpose,if yes, What is it?. I searched alot but not able to find right exits.

Hello ,
I think you can achieve this via configuration .Basically you want the release strategy to get redetermined based on the changes in the item or if the price of these items increase a certain level .if you have the release startegy as changeble in the SPRO ticked it will automatically go for new release strategy if you have the value of release indicator set .This can be done SPRO->MM->Purchase order->Release procedure for purchase order->Define release procedure->Release indicator.
Set the appropriate value .
Remember you need to know what is that it retrigger that release strategy .
The link below deals with similar requirement ....

Email functionality for PO Release Strategy:

Email functionality for PO Release Strategy:
>When PO is blocked an email must be sent out to the first approver.
>If there is a second approver there should be sent out an e-mail after the first level is approved and soon.
>When a PO is released by last approver an e-mail must be sent to the creator of the PO
I need develop this demand without workflow.
I found an Exit 'EXIT_SAPMM06E_013' which is triggering when 'ME21N' is executed.
But i'm unable to update the table EKKO before my code is executed.
Here i need Rel. gr(FRGGR),
            Rel Str.(FRGSX),
            Rel Indicator(FRGKE),
            subject to release(FRGRL) AND
            Rel Status(FRGZU) from table EKKO to check whether the PO is Blocked or Released.
Based on the values got from the table EKKO, i need pick email ids from ZTable which stores Email Ids.
I'm able to get the PO no which is currently genereated and i need to pass this PO no. to table EKKO to get the above fields.
But Table EKKO is updating in the database after the execution of my code.
What do i need to do to get table EKKO updated in the database before my code is executed.

Workflow for PO release strategy agent not found

Hi all,
I m beginner in the workflow. i want to create a workflow for the PO. release strategy I have done all the settings in the SPRO for the release strategy. I have copied the standard workflow definition WS20000075 also done the binding with object type BUS2012. in the steps 'Release of purchase order' i have mentioned the task TS20000166 i.e. 'Release of purchase order' and also maintain the AC Rule 20000027 i.e. 'Person responsible for PO release' for agents. But still its not getting the agents. the workflow is getting triggered but its not getting the agent. What else setting I need to do to get this done.
Thanks a lot.
Regards.

Very well put Rick. In my case if i simulate this workflow from swdd transaction then it works fine but the same workflow when initiated from ME21N doesn't work and throws same error.
1. I have copied standard workflow and task 166 is throwing error.
"Resolution of rule AC20000027 for task TS20000166: no agent found"
2. I have recreated the step but still the workflow is throwing error.
3. If I execute the rule individually (PFAC_DIS) with a specific PO then the rule works fine. The rule executes the below mentioned exit successfully.
4. I am using exit to determine the agent, the workflow works fine if I don't use the exit. The exit is EXIT_SAPLEBNF_005. I am just pulling the agent from a ztable.
Please advise if you can help as I have not seen anyone answering.
by the way irrespective of the explicit rule update in the workflow the step executes AC20000027 by default.
Any help on above is appreciated.

Fields suitable for PO release strategy

Hi,
I had worked with the PO release strategy in which a characteristic is created with the fields BSART ( Order type ), WERKS ( Plant ), Value ( GNETW ), EKORG ( Purchasing group )
Other than these fields what are the list of fields over which we can have a control through the release strategy.
Pl expedite.
RD

Hello,
Please check the documentation for the activity 'Edit Characteristic' in the IMG:
[...] Requirements
In communication structure CEKKO you will find all the fields that can be used as characteristics for a release condition (e.g. BSART for the order type and GNETW for the total order value).
Check which fields you wish to use as characteristics for your release strategy. To do so, choose Tools -> ABAP Workbench -> Development -> Dictionary, enter CEKKO in the field Database table, and choose "Display".
Note
If you wish to define a separate release strategy for the various document categories (PO, RFQ, etc.), you must create a characteristic for each relevant document category.
So theoretically one can use any field from CEKKO.
For the workflow, customisation is linked to release strategies and codes, not directly with the classification fields.

Michal

I suppose, you are using the workflow WS20000075. Add sending email as an additional task to the same workflow in SWDD.

User Exit for Requisition Release Strategy

Hi All,
Is anyone able to provide any guidance on determining the release strategy of a purchase requisition via a user exit? It has become neccessary to do this due to certain shortcomings of the classes and characteristic functionality.
I believe it's possible, I just don't know how.
Thanks.

Release Group for PR Release Strategy

Hi ,
When i am trying to define new "Release Group" AA , with Class "Z_PR" (it has Plant and Item Value as charcteristics ) , I am receiving message "Please Check Release Classes" , Message no. ME492.It doesn't allow me to save this new release group.
Please also note that other two release Groups are already available.
Do u know what I am missing and how can I save my Release group ?
ALSO as per the LONG text of this prompted message
"Diagnosis
Here you can assign release groups to release classes. Only one release class should be used within the release groups for overall release and the release groups without overall release in each case. However, in this instance several release classes have been used."
What does it mean ?
Sandeep

Hi,
The message has explained the problem.
You cannot have two classes for the same document release and you are tryng to break this rule by adding another entry (the fact that you have give it a different release group does not make any difference this is still another class for the same document.)
You should be able to do what you want without the need for a new release group or additional class, after all everyone else that uses SAP is using one class per document.
Why diod you think that you needed another release group / class?

Workflow for PO Release Strategy

Hi all Workflow experts
We are on ECC 6.0. We have created a 3 level Rel strategy PO and are creating the workflow for this scenario.
The business object we are using is BUS2012 and WF Template is WS20000075.
Each time a PO is created/changed workitem will be sent order we have defined, ie. L1, L2,L3. Each time mail goes to the inbox of the concerned approver.
The problem is when the final approver cancels the release. Under activity 'Release of PO canceled, Task TS20000167 we have assigned the agent as Originator of PO. However at this instant mail does not go into the originator's mailbox.
Approver is cancelling the release in ME28 as it should be, I presume.
Are we missing something here? Is there any additional settings required to trigger the mail to the originator?
I would be happy if the responses from you all does not point to SAP .htm files! since I have already gone through them but it is very hard to understand some simple things!
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Raghu

All,
I gather that ver 4.7 onwards, SAP has supported the PO rejection/cancellation feature. Since I am working on client's server which is 4.6 c I am not able to implement this. Unfortunately, in the process of doing R&D within the sandbox I seem to have damaged the template WS000075. Now I am getting an error message at the first approval level saying "relase written to buffer".
Can anyone tell me what does this mean? Also is there a way to retrive the original template form the development clients?
Regards,
raghu

CHARACTERS FOR PR RELEASE STRATEGY

i m craeting one chars for purchase req. i want to use chars purchase group.
when i m entering table name ceban and field name ekgrp, message is coming like " delete the allowing value first"
what is the solution for this
tahnks in advance
nitin

Hi Nitin,
Are you copying this characterstics from any other characterstics?
If so in values column you may be getting values copied please delete those
secondly choose multiple values assignment instead of Single value
and in additional data use communication structure name CEKKO and field as EKGRP
Use character format and give character value as three
Then you should be able to save

BADI for PO release strategy

Hi,
If PO is released than automatically mail should be sent to authorized person.
How i can achieve this using BADI.Please suggest.And where i have to write the code.

Hello Priyank
If you are already working on ERP 6.0 the the BAdI of choice is ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. Below I describe schematically how you implement your requirement:
METHOD IF_EX_ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST~OPEN.
me->md_trtyp = id_trtyp. " NOTE: Define MD_TRTYP as instance attribute
" NOTE: Presumably IF ( id_trtyp = 'H' ). => means PO is created
ENDMETHOD.
" Closing Processing
METHOD IF_EX_ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST~CLOSE.
CHECK ( me->md_trtyp = 'H' ). " implies PO has been created
CALL METHOD me->send_email( ).
ENDMETHOD.
Regards
Uwe
