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,
Anchi

Hello
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.

MM - ML81N, Release Procedure for service entry sheet

Hi Gurus,
I would like to active the realease strategy for service.
in order to customize I set:
-Relase Groups
-Release Codes
-Release indicator
-Release startegues
Then I run ML81N TRX and I called a sheet to try. This sheet had to has done to one of the release strategy set...
on the menu (of this trx ML81N)Entry Sheet->Set Status->Release (is still turn off)
Where is the problem?, anybody could help me?
Tks in advance,
Nacho

Hi,
please read the FAQ note 672719, question 5:
Setting up a release procedure is explained in the following short
example: All service entry sheets with material group 007 are supposed
to be subject to a release strategy. This release strategy requires that
the service entry sheets must be released with release code A1. Only the
cost center manager has the authorization for release code A1.
A) Create a characteristic for the material group:
o Call Transaction CT04. (Path in the SAP menu in R/3 Enterprise:
       Cross-Application Components -> Classification System -> Master
       Data -> Characteristics)
o Specify a name for the characteristic, for example CESSR_MATKL,
       and choose the 'Create' pushbutton.
o On the 'Basic data' tab page, enter a description and keep the
       'Released' status.
o On the 'Addnl data' tab page, enter table name CESSR and field
       name MATKL (Material group).
o Enter class type 032 (Release strategy) on the 'Restrictions' tab
       page and then save the characteristic.
Note: The release strategy must be based on a field of structure CESSR.
Using Transaction SE11, you can display which other fields are available
in addition to the material group (field MATKL).
B) Create a class to which you assign the characteristic:
o Call Transaction CL02. (Path in the SAP menu in R/3 Enterprise:
       Cross-Application Components -> Classification System -> Master
       Data -> Classes)
o Enter a class name, for example FRG_ESSR, and class type 032 (for
       release strategy) and then choose the 'Create' pushbutton.
o On the 'Basic data' tab page, enter any name. (Keep the
       'Released' status.)
o Enter characteristic CESSR_MATKL on the 'Char.' tab page and then
       save the class.
C) Now carry out the required Customizing settings. Follow IMG path
(Transaction SPRO) 'Materials Management -> External Services Management
Seite 4
-> Define Release Procedures for Service Entry Sheet'
o At first, you must create a release group (for example 03). For
       that, choose 'Release Groups', then choose 'New Entries', enter
       'Rel. Group' = 03 and 'Class' = FRG_ESSR. Save the entry. The
       system automatically determines value 3 (for entry of services
       performed) for the release object.
o Now create release code A1 for release group 03. Choose 'New
       Entries' and specify the following values: Grp = 03, Code = A1,
       and description, for example cost center manager.
o Create two release indicators, for example A and B. Select the
       'Released' field for release indicator B and save the entries.
       (Note: A release strategy must at least contain two release
       indicators. The first indicator (here A) must be defined as
       locked, the last indicator as released. Furthermore, the general
       changeability of the service entry sheet and the behavior for
       value changes are defined via the release indicators.)
o Finally create the release strategy. Choose 'New Entries' and
       specify the following values: Release group = 03, release
       strategy, for example RS, release codes = A1. Assign the two
       release indicators A and B via 'Release statuses'. Assign
       material group 007 via 'Classification'. Save the release
       strategy.
D) Assign the authorization for release code A1 and release group 03 to
the cost center manager. In role maintenance (Transaction PFCG), you can
for example use the default values for Transaction ML85 for that.

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.
Rgds.

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,
bhaskar

Hi,
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.

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)

Divya

Procedure for material listing

Hello all,
When I use the following customizing : "Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Listing/Exclusion > Activate listing/exclusion by sales document type"
There is a setting called "procedure for material listing" (3rd column) that determines how the system reacts to several listings. The possible values are :
- The first listing in the access sequence is used
A - The last listing in the access sequence is used
B - At least one listing must apply
C - All listings must apply
But I don't understand what is the purpose of these values because, concerning material listings, if there is at least one listing, it is enough to consider the material can be bought. Isn't it?
Also I encounter a bug when I use the first value "- The first listing in the access sequence is used" : the program finds entries for the given customer but within these entries there is none for the given material. Even if the system finds no entry (customer+material), it reacts like if there is one.
Using VA01, when I run the material listing/exclusion analysis, the answer for the following access sequences is "Access not made due to a previous access"...
Thanks in advance if you provide any help about this issue.
Regards,
Francois.

Purchase Requisition / Order: Account Assignment Category for material type

Hi,
When creating a PR or PO for one specific material I would like the system to propose a specific account assignment Category for this material. It shouldn't allow the user to change this account assignment category.
Is it possible? How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance.
Luis.

I dont think there is any standard procedure for doing this.
My idea would be to use a user exit say EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 for PR and a similar exit for PO and code a Error message check for Material type and account assignment combination.
For ex : EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_010 is a exit which is called during check in a PR . SO when the user enters a combination of Material type and Acc assignment u can check for the requirements.

It advisable not to add material number as a release characteristics for PO wheras for PR you can add it ..the job of the release characteristics is to to find the data in the purchasing document and apply the appropriate release stategy to it .this is done through communication structures .CEBAN is the communication structure for PR and CEKKO for PO.
note: if u add material no as a release characteristics u need to add each and every material number created into the class for your release strategy and release group through t code cl20n.

How config release strategy by materia type.

Hello... Help me...
I want to PO Release by material type(MTART), but in CEKKO, there is no MTART.
So I use user-exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002-ZXM06U22.
But I didn't config PO release by material type.
I set characteristic-additional data Table name : CEKKO, Field name : LBLIF.
What is wrong this user-exit program? (If material type = ZROH' --> PO Release)
DATA IS_BEKPO TYPE BEKPO.
move-corresponding i_cekko to e_cekko.
LOOP AT IT_BEKPO INTO IS_BEKPO.
    IF IS_BEKPO-MTART = 'ZROH'.
       MOVE IS_BEKPO-MTART TO E_CEKKO-LBLIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

Hi,
For PO's, only header level release is possible. There is no item level release possible.
Material type is item level data. That's why using material type, you can't configer release strategy for the PO's.

Hierarchy for material types does not exist

Hi,
I am doing an intial configuration in SRM 7.0 we have actvated extended classic and PPS activated.
In the first level of configuration ai heve set up the logical systems and the system landscape.
when i am in R3AS
DNL_CUST_BASIS3
DNL_CUST_PROD0
DNL_CUST_PROD1
DNL_CUST_SRVMAS
the above objects wre green when i executed
For the object MATERIAL
I am getting an error
Hierarchy for material types does not exist
Message no. COM_PRODUCT_API000
Diagnosis
Before materials are imported from the ERP system, the material types from the ERP system must exist as categories in CRM/EBP. When the Customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD1 is imported, the material types are imported automatically and created under the category MAT in the category hierarchy R3PRODSTYP (product subtype).
Procedure
Check whether the ERP system material types have been imported successfully and exist as categories.
Proceed
If necessary, import the Customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD1.
Kindly guide me

Hi,
It looks you have not configured the middleware basic settings. Queue should be registered in SMQR transaction.
Please follow the configuration guides in SAP Solution Manager or offline downloaded version in SAP Service Marketplace.

Release Procedure for PO not getting applied

Dear All,
I have created a Release procedure for PO, for the field - Order Type. I have defined & followed all the steps i.e., Characteristic, Class, Rel. Groups, Rel. Codes, Rel. indicator & Rel. strategy.
Then i go to CL20N and assign object to class.
But when i create a PO & try to release it in ME29N it says 'Purchasing Doc. cannot be released"
The same release procedure was working fine few days back.
Kindly let me know if i have missed out some steps or someother settings need to be made.
Regards,

hi kedar

any settings to be checked in characteristics ?
Hey, and one more thing... everytime I exceute ME28 or ME29n, and later when i try to open Class...... i get an error message "Class type 032: Class <class name> being processed by <username>"
Then i have to go and delete in the locked entries, only then I can see the Class.
