Issue in PO Version Management

We have recently configured release strategy for PO in SAP.
Now there is issue with Version management.
Consider X and Y are users responsible for Purchasing activities.
Scenario prior to Release Strategy Configuration:
If X has created PO and if it is transferred to Y for some changes, Y used to manually genrate version(Using + button on Version Tab in PO) and used to make changes in PO. i.e. X and Y both were able to genrate version.
Scenario after Release Strategy Configuration:
If X has created PO and if it is transferred to Y for some changes, Y is not able to genrate version as + button on version tab is deactivated  but able to make changes in PO. i.e. X  is able to genrate version.
Client wants it as per earlier scenario. i.e. Both X and Y shud be able o generate version manually.
Is thare any authorization issue? or it got affetcted because of Release strategy cinfiguaration.....? How to resolve this?

Hi
New Versions of Purchasing Documents
The system always creates a new version when the purchasing document has reached a final state. This means one of the following processing states:
Active
If you do not use the document release functionality
Release completed
If you use the document release functionality
For a new version of a purchasing document to be created, all messages must have also been transmitted.
No new versions are generated for purchase orders that are on hold or not fully released.
Hope it helps

  • Version management issue

    I am two issues with Version Management in PR and POs:
    - New version can only be added onces the PR or PO is release by final authority. Below is the scenario:
    I have created a PR and have it release by the two approving authorities. Now I want make changes in the PR. I have it cancelled from the both approving authorities and make the required changes. Now logically the system should allow the initiator to add the new version so that requisition so that the approving authrities must know that the second version of requisition is being released. But the system doez not let the initiator add the version prior to release. Do we have any solution to this?
    - second issue is that once the second version is added in the PR and we need to make some more changes and create a thrid version, system doznot let user to revoke the release.

    Dear ABC,
    For your issue 1, please check if version already set to completed and an message output already sent to vendor.
    This is the prerequisites for the new version to be created. A new version will only be created when the information
    had sent to vendor.

  • Version Management - Active flag issue

    Experts,
    Here's my issue. When I edit a program, activate it and assign it to a new request, the program shows as active from the editor. But when I go to version management, the active flag (check box) for the current version (with the new request number) is not checked.
    I tried checking the check box and do a retrieve. Then it showed an activ flag (checked) and modif flah(unchecked). But when I go to the editor mode and get back to version management, again, the active flag is blank. Is it to do with BASIS or what could be the problem?

  • Parallel developments - Version Management issue

    Hi all,
    My project is going into its enhancement phase and we intend to have a parallel development environment. Dev1 is for maintenance of the Production system, Dev2 for the new enhancement project.
    Dev 2 is a client copy of the QA1 environment, as the data there is cleaner than Dev1. Eventually, once the enhancement has gone live, Dev 2 will be the overall Dev system.
    My question: Version management is only stored in the source client, that is, Dev 1. How can we sync up the version management histories of Dev 1 and Dev 2. The client is concerned due to audit reasons.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    Here the client doesnt want to use Me9f for output of the message. So the issue is how to get the output done from me21n and get the version updated from Version"0" to Version"1".
    for this maintain the Message despatch time as 4 - Send immediately when saving the application Instead of 3 in the message condition record
    This will process the message once the PO is relased & saved
    Version managemnt is effective only if the existing messages are processed, if the message is not processed then version will not change in the PO.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Version management output type issue

    hi,
    we have activated version management and all working fine .
    but while taking print out through ME9F we have assigned to 3 output types (NEU,ZNEU,ZNIU) for a single PO , until and unless we take print for 3 output tyes we are not able to amend the PO .we are getting the below error .
    "No new version created because a message has not yet been transmitted"
    is there any option if we take print for one output type(ZNEU )out of 3 output types(NEU,ZNEU,ZNIU)   it should allow us to do changes in PO .
    please assist we need to close the requirement on priority .
    thanks in advance

    HI,
    is there any option if we take print for one output type(ZNEU )out of 3 output types(NEU,ZNEU,ZNIU) it should allow us to do changes in PO .
    No i don't think so system will create new version.
    new version is created when you output PO completely
    try this create pool request for other two message in Message tab in PO in ME22N and then try PO it will work

  • 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

  • Internal Data Transfer to Funds Management - Version Management Error

    Hi All,
    We are trying to convert the open PO's in our system that were created before FM was implemented, and that are to be converted now before the MIGO stage.
    We are using the following steps:
    1) Select the document
    2) Convert the worklist.
    We had done the first step, and faced no issues. During the conversion of the worklist, we face the following error
    Message ID - MEPO;Message Number - 813; Version Management of purchase order still faulty.
    Message ID - MEDCM; Message Number - 4; Enter short text for version
    Message ID - MEDCM; Message Number - 3; Enter reason for change for version
    In the Control Data for each of the Document Type, the control data, Version Active and Version 0 OK are activated.
    Can someone kindly suggest what could have possibly gone wrong here ?
    Regards,
    Wy

    Hi All,
    Just to clarify, I went through note 800784 and found that in our system
    1. None of the fields - 'Reason,' 'Description,' 'Req By,' 'Req By Ext' or 'Post Date' -  is a required entry in the version management  field selection
    2. None of the fields - EKPO-ELIKZ or EKPO-EREKZ or EBAKZ - are set as Version-Relevant Fields of Purchase Requisitions.
    Cant figure out why I am not able to assign the fund centre and commitment item here, although I am able to perform MIGO and MIRO on that.

  • Comparing version management after import for structures

    Hi,
    I am having issues with transports on ECC 6.40 for table structures. I went to Utilities, Version, Version management, Remote comparison with QAS, and clicked on Delta display, I see that it saids 'Unchanged'. Would this mean that nothing got transported or impotred to QAS?
    Is it correct that SAP structures are  not transportable? I am actually enhancing SAP standard structures and fields through using a SAP provided standard report.
    Would I have to run this report on the target system QAS and eventually PRD to add the SAP fields to the structures? Woudd that also mean that I would have to ask Basis to open the system, run the report, and close it?
    Thanks

    Hi Padmanabha,
    in addition, you should replicate the datasource 8<source cube> and reactivate the transfer rules using RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL.
    Hope it helps,

  • 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!

  • Version management in Essbase

    Hi all -<BR><BR>We're looking to do version management with our Essbase objects (outlines, calc scripts, etc) as part of an ITIL implementation. Has anyone had any luck or experience in such an attempt with Essbase in a UNIX environment? The corporate standard will most likely be PVCS (now owned by Serena).<BR><BR>Many thanks,<BR><BR><BR>charlie<BR>

    FYI, we were able to get EAL up and running after adding the following entries into the registry on our servers...
    Solution
    This timeout issue can be fixed by adding two tcpip registry parameters, but first you must identify which client was communicating with essbase when the timeout occurred so that you know which machine to add the parameters to.  If all the EAL and EPM components are installed on a single machine, then that machine would also host the client.  If products are installed in a distributed environment you determine the client machine based on how the EAL Essbase Server component is defined.
    The APS URL is part of the Analytics Link, Essbase Server definition in EAL.
    If the value (APS URL) is "Embedded" this means that the EAL Application Server is communicating via the JAPI directly with the Essbase Server. In this case the EAL AppServer is the client to the Essbase Server. For this case the following tcpip registry parameters need to go on the machine where the EAL Application Server is running.
    If the (APS URL) value is http://serverName:13080/aps/JAPI then the EAL Application Server is communicating by way of Hyperion Provider Services (APS). In this case EAL proxies requests to and from the Essbase Server through APS. This means that APS is the client to the Essbase Server and the tcpip registry parameters need to go on the machine where Hyperion Provider Services are running.
    Once you have identified which machine is acting as the client to essbase, set the TcpTimedWaitDelay=30 and MaxUserPort=65534 parameters via the windows registry.
    1. Open the Windows Registry.
    2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters.
    3. Add new DWORD Value named "TcpTimedWaitDelay"
    - right click and select Modify
    - Select "decimal" radio button, type in 30.
    4. Add new DWORD Value named MaxUserPort
    - right click and select Modify
    - Select "decimal" radio button, type in 65534
    5. A reboot of the server is necessary.

  • SAP 4.6b R3Copy version management log missing

    Good Day
    I made an R3copy from a production server into a new server, and I want to use this new machine as a development server (I didn’t do it with the old development server because of a location issue).  Now there are some logs that are no showing in the new server, like program version management logs (SE38) and I don’t know what else, if a do a Client import from the old development server with option sap_reco the problem will be solved??? or do I have to do something different??
    Thanks in advance

    can you please describe how you created the new system (with installation CDs, which templates did you use).

  • Z40-70 compatibility issue with your power management system

    I noticed today that the Action Center says "Compatibility issue with your power management system." The description underneath is: Your power management system isn't working peoperly because a compatible driver is not available for this version of Windows. When I click on View message details it just says "Your computer was unable to download the solution at this time. Check to make sure your computer is connected to the Internet, and then try to download the solution again later." All power related functionalities however seem to be working. Battery is charging; battery percentage is showing; I can adjust screen brightness. I am not sure when exactly this problem started but it defenitely was not there before. Tried downloading and fixing the Power Management Software and updating BIOS. Still have the same message. System: Windows 8.1 64-bit 

    What model do you have? Can you post your MTM or model name?
