PO Release Procedure for free item
Hi Guru's
I need to setup the releae procedure for free materials in PO.
How to achieve this - kindly guide me with the setps
Scenario: If the Material is free of cost ( Item is checked for Free) then that PO should be released by Cost Manager.
Gudie to achieve this scenario.
Thanks in advance
regards
Anand
Hello
As free indicator is in item level and the PO release is at header level , there is no std way to have release statragy.
SAP has provided a user-exit (exit_saplebnd_002, include zxm06u22)
intended to allow customer to reset the Release Strategy on the PO
you will have to code in the above user exit and pass say X value in 'e_cekko-usrc1' .
and u will have to create the charecters for USRC1 and also have to set the release staratey with the value
hope this helps

How to configure release procedure for rate contracts release
Dear all,
How to configure release procedure for rate contract following are the requirements
they are two release codes c1 & c2 <=100000,>=100000
if c1 is not there c2 has to be approved
Change in the value of the rate contract contract
Change in the validity of the rate contract
Addition of deletion of line items
While using a non u2013 released rate contract in the PO an error message should shoot out.
Also the logic should be changed while using the rate contract in the PO.
The usage of the rate contract should be till the validity of the rate contract. i.e. the measurement should be end date of the rate contract and the PO creation date and not the delivery date of the PO. &
It should be possible to refer existing valid rate contracts in purchase orders.
Regards,
bhaskarHi,
In SAP rate contract is known as value contract denoted with wk. The release procedure for rate contract is same as that of other contracts and scheduling agreements. The tables for contracts will vary with SA (Scheduling agreement) .You may try and maintain condition records based on the customer combination and maintian the validity date of condition records as per your requirement.For contract and PO will have the same header/item table as EKKO/EKPO, and the release
class in standard is the same FRG_EKKO, you can use the same for contract.
To distinguish if it's a contract or PO, EKKO-BSART can be used.
For contract EKKO-BSART will be MK or WK, while PO will have NB/UB etc..
You can restrict the document type to set up the release strategy for only contract.
Of cause, you can also create your own release class Z* for contract copying standard
one FRG_EKKO via CL01/Class type 032, and then assign the class Z* to customizing:
OLME:
-> contract
->Release Procedure for Contracts
->Define Release Procedure for Contracts
->Release Groups
If you have already created the PO release class.
Assign a new chracteristic of Document Category -BSTYP
Please check below link for detailed release procedure. I hope this wil help you out .Thanking you.

PR release procedure for material types
Hi all,
I have a question, I created new release procedure for combination :
1. NB pur.requsition, purchasing group + material type (let sey roh.. etc)
2. YNB pur.requsition, purchasing groups + material type (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003).
- 3 characteristcs for pur.groups, doc.type and material type.
- 1 class
- 2 release groups (E1 and P1)
- For release group P1, In rel.strategy in classification I entered values for pur. requisition (NB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZUSL-001.. ect)
- For release group E1, in rel. strategy in classification entered values
values for pur. requisition (YNB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003)
So, problem is that if I enter pur.requisition YNB and material type ZSTE-001, needs release; if I add item with material type ZUSL-001, there is no release.
How can I restrict the values so that is giving error if by mistake is entered between material types ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003 material type ZUSL-001 in document type YNB, which is not allowed to be entered?
Thanks in advance,
AnchiHello
In PR you can set up this release strategy without classification release strategy.
w/o classification strategy you can define the release line item wise. so you can give diiff materual group you can enter with line item wise.

Calculation of sales tax for free item
Dear SAP B1 Experts
I have query regarding sales tax calculation for free item .
For EG. I have two item for sales (A = 1000, B = 100) Sales tax is VAT4%
But when i am doing sales, i am selling B for free of cost with A for Rs 1000/-
here my tax calculation is (1000 *4%) = 1040/-
but as per the govt sales tax rule, we are liable to pay the tax for free item as well
So I this case, In SAP B1 how we will calculate the tax 4% for free item .
Please help me.
Thanksi have checked, its working okay, but
in Invoice print out unit price and line total is showing for free item. How i make the unite price 0 .
Tax only calculation is based on the Line total and the line total is based on the unit price.
in that case when i give the invoice to the customer.
It should show like this
Item A 100 * 10 1000
" B 0 * 1 00
1000
4% tax 44
Doc Total = 1044
thanks

Excise capture in import po for free item
Dear Friends
I am having an issue.
I have created an import po for free item.
As the item is free of cost,system will hide the conditions tab item details tab.
But we are paying the all the duties like CVD,Import Duty ,cess etc for the free item.
The item detail tab is hidden, I cannot enter the planned delivery costs for the item
Please advise me how can I capture Excise Invoice for the free itme in import PO
ThnksThe only way to do it is to assign a small notional value (like 0.01 USD) to the item, so that the conditions tab does not disappear.
The only problem will be that the GR/IR clearing account will have an open entry, which can be cleared via MR11 with minimum accounting impact.

Error in Release procedure for PO
Hi
I have created a release procedure for Purchase groups and plants. But now I want to add a new Purchasing group to the same strategy. How to do this.Hi Garapati,
Release strategy is configuration in customisation screen. Do not merely do assignment of object via CL20N or CL24N. Though assigning the object would work, but is better to do it in customisation.
Go to this path: -
SPRO>IMG>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order (Execute)-->Release Strategies
Go to: Position>Identify the Group> Identify the Release Strategy code
(How to know what is the release strategy code? In the PO where a release strategy for this value and characteristic is triggered, you can go to the Header-->Release Strategy tab, you would be able to see that the release strategy is triggered. Simply remember the release strategy code. If you already know the code, ignore this step)
When the search is complete and located the right release strategy that you want to amend, select it and click on Details.
Inside, go to Classification. Check that this release strategy contain the characteristic that you want to amend. You would be able to see the Characteristic "Purchasing Group" already maintained. Click on Purchasing Group line and click on "Add rows" icon below, then key in the the Purchasing Group value that you want to add.
Hit Back, and then Save this customisation.
Now, the PO release strategy will trigger the Purchasing Group you just added if the PO details entered matched the Purchasing Group, Plant and Document Type value that you maintained for this release strategy.
Hope this helps.

when I create characteristics
in Additional data
table name :-- Cekko field name :-- match code
enter
click all sec charars then which block I select to go next screen
and fill name is right or ?

in additional data field you have to give the field name of characteristic you are maintaining. like if you want to maintain characteristic as document type of the PO then we have to give the field name for document type mentioned in table CEKKO i.e. BSART.
then you have to do the value assignment. here you have to tick the check box for "NOT READY FOR INPUT".

How do I opt-out of recieving email receipts for free items from the store?
Hello,
Currently, when I download free apps from the store I will eventually receive weekly receipts from e-mail. While useful on purchased items, I treat this as spam for free items.
How do I opt-out of this for free items?I'm not aware of any setting to prevent the Apple's receipt to be sent.
If you bought a mix of purchase item and free item, the will appears on the same receipt. Instead of considering them as spam, you can consider them as "a way to recall which apps you dowloaded in case something wrong happen".
Personally, I have created a folder called "receipts" and simply send these mails to this folder. -
Release Procedure For Contract
Dear Gurus,
I have created a release procedure for Purchase Order.Now i created a Contract , it also asking for release.I dont know y its happening??
Is ter any link between Po release and Contract Release??
Plz Explain ....
Thanks in advance...........Hi,
Whatever document types you give in release procedure will undergo Approval process.
Since you have given MK & WK, your contract has been blocked for release. Unless it is released, it cannot be used for further transactions, say creation of PO.
Tcode to release contract is ME35K.
Release it using your release group & release codes, Afterwhich you will be able to create PO with contract reference.
If you donot want contract to undergo release procedure, please do not mention WK or MK in values for doc characteristics. Give the document type of PO alone. Say NB (standard PO)

Regarding releasing procedure for p.o.
hi sapgurus,
the configuration for p.o. release procedure is working perfectly but whenever i go to me29n or me28 i am getting two step release procedure but in industry if the manager has given excess to me29n/me28 then himslef ca release the p.o by means of clicking both release steps, that means without general manager review the manager can release the p.o by means of clicking both. hence i am willing to restricate each user's acess to other stepd release procedure.
examaple
in me29n/me28 :-
1) manager.
2) general manager.
in this case i want the manager to click on his resepctive release step and should not allow to acess the general manager's relase step's.
thanking you
praveerhi,
please visit
www.sap123.com
there is a thread which explain very clearly for the release procedure for PO.
In PR (With classification0 there is only difference , you use CEBAN communication structure instead of CEKKO for PO)
