PR Release Strategy for Account assignment cat "U"

Is it possible to set up release strategy for Acct assignment Cat "U" - if yes, How would it be configured?  additionally we are also setting up Rel str for acct assign cat K and A - specific question is relative to "U" in addition to K and A.
Other parameters being used are
pur Org
Doc type
cost center
Total value
Thanks for the help in advance
Raj

Dear Raj,
When you creating PR with acct assignment U, the acct. assignment tab will not appear, thus
you not able to enter cost center. You may try this workaround via customizing.
a) You may define a <BLANK> value for the cost center in customizing and assign it to your release strategy.
Characteristic:
Cost Center:
Value    Desc:
1000     1000
2000      2000
                <BLANK>
b) You may use user exit  EXIT_SAPLEBND_001 and pass the dummy cost center to get the release strategy
determine.

  • Release strategy -multiple account assignment

    Hi,
    I have PO release strategy based on account assignment(one of the criteria). AAC used is P,Q, and N . Couple of questions -
    1) I do not want to allow multiple account assignment in PO.
    2) KNTTP is not available in CEKKO communication structure. I had to bring it through a user exit. Because of this looks like multiple account assignment still triggers release.

    Hi
    The thing you need to get considered is does the PO release at header level or at item level .You can create a class for account assignment category and assign the charecterestic properly created with the tab basic data properly filled for value assignment and assign the values for the AAC .

  • Alternative for account assignment cat F

    Hi Experts
    In standard system, the account assignment for general is configured as F.
    I wish to use different account determination for project material and services.
    Is it OK if i change this standard AAC 'F' with N or any customized one with dedicated account modifier? I am convinced but looking for experts comments.
    I do not understand why the cat 'F' is given in stead of standard 'N'.
    Warm regards
    ramSiva

    In the older versions F was available for all order categories mostly 20 (networks) and 30 (maintenance) - however in subsequent versions N was made available
    There is no reason why you cannot configure your own

  • Cost center not committed on shopping cart,  for account assign cat "Asset"

    Hello,
    We are implementing extended classic scenario in SRM 5.0 with ECC 6.0 backend.
    While creating a shopping cart in SRM, in the cost assignment tab when we select an account assignment category as “Asset", and then try to enter a value in the cost center in the basic details of cost assignment, it is not getting committed to shopping cart screen. The cost center field value is lost when we move to the next screen for ordering the shopping cart. For the asset related purchases, we are using main account assignment category as "asset" and it also requires cost center, because while the asset master record is being created in R/3 for these items,it requires the cost center. We also using internal order. So for the account assignment category "Asset", the other account assignment fields that can be entered are cost center, internal order and one custom field called "project code".
    We have created this user-defined field in the cost assignment tab in the shopping cart, purchase order and confirmation documents in SRM in accordance with the OSS note 672960. We have implemented BBP_CUF_BADI_2 & BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI for the shopping cart object.
    Can someone please help me with this issue?
    Thanks,
    Krupa

    thanks Ramakrishna and Yann for your prompt reply..
    Ramakrisha,
      I know that for assets, SC requires asset number and G/L is automatically derived from the corresponding asset class from the backend. In our case, we are putting dummy asset number in shopping cart and this asset number exists in R/3. But we are not generating asset creation during shopping cart creation but we are doing it during the PO creation in doc change badi. During this asset generation you also need cost center on the asset record. So we have added cost center field for Asset account assignment category and I can see it in the details of account assignment. But when I enter this cost center on shopping cart, it doesnot get committed, it disappears when I order the shopping cart.
    Does anybody have any clue why this might be happening?
    Thanks,
    Krupa

  • PO release strategy based on Account Assignment Cat (CEKKO - KNTTP)

    Hi Experts,
    I want to configure the release strategy for PO on account assignment category.when i  maintaining a characteristic for account assignment cat by inputing CEKKO- KNTTP , sys throughs error message. I looked in to CEKKO but I could not find the field .Kindly tel how maintain teh same .
    Regards,
    Kumar.

    Hi Kumar,
    Account Assignment Category and Item Category belong to the item level and not to the header level of a purchase order (table EKPO). Therefore,   neither Account Assignment Category nor Item Category are available in CEKKO.As work-around you can use the following user-exit:                                                                               
    MM06EF0S_STRATEGIE_CEKKO                                                   
    (enhancement M06E0004, EXIT_SAPLEBND_002, ZXM06U22).                       
    In this user-exit the data are available in structure I_CEKKO.   The hand-over from I_CEKKO to the calling program is via structure E_CEKKO.   In the user-exit I_CEKKO has to be copied to E_CEKKO , e.g. 
    E_CEKKO = I_CEKKO.                                                                               
    Please also see our FAQ note 365604, it is worth reading.

  • Release strategy for PREQs created from PM work order

    Hi All,
    I have an issue with determining  release strategy for purchase requisition for external services created via PM work order (iw31 transaction).
    We have activated release strategy for Purchase requisition based on the following characteristics:
    CEBAN_PLANT
    CEBAN_COST_CENTER_GROUP
    CEBAN_MANUAL
    Characteristic CEBAN_COST_CENTER_GROUP is defined via user exit based on the cost center used in the PREQ and a z table which contains all cost centers mapped to the corresponding  cost center goups.
    In the user exit we have consider to cases:
    The first one is when a purchase requisition is created with account assignment K (cost center) then system is checking the z table and determines the right cost center group.
    The second case is when a purchase requisition is created with account assignment F (internal order) then based on the order type and number the cost center in the order is defined and based on it the corresponding entry in the z table cost center group is assigned.
    The third case is when purchase requisition for services is created automatically from PM work order. In this case the PREQ is again with account assignment F, but at the time when user exit is checking the input parameters the real number of the work order does not exist and system can not defined the other parameters.
    We have defined  for this requisitions in the release strategy for characteristic CEBAN_MANUAL creation indicator " F".
    Has anybody of you defined release strategy for PREQs created out of work order before. How did you manage to trigger the release strategy?
    Best Regards,
    Desislava

    Hi,
    For PM order find the costcenter in the settlement rule of the order or else find the costcenter in the Location tab of the order.
    Consider this filed from order & write in the Z program to pick up the costcenter from there to find out the cost center group.
    Regards,

  • Release strategy for no determination

    Hi guys,
    I have a release strategy for PR that is determined based on the cost center, regarding the account assign. ctg. and the cost center. The problem is: when the release strategy is not determined - most of the times, it happens on the creation of a new cost center - the PR is born already released. I need to figure out a way to direct this situation to a strategy that nobody can approve.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Marcelo Buosi.

    Hi,
    Ok. Check the below process & May helpful to you.
    Now Create purchasing Group for a departments ( Say example as E01 for Environment ) in OME4 t.code
    Create a Cost center for the department where cost going to capture ( Say in  Environment Department) and assign department to cost center in basis data TAB of cost center in KS01/KS02 t.code.
    Note:
    Create Characteristics in CT04 t.code {Table ECBAN & field name for department responsible }
    Create Class in CL02 t.code and assign Characteristics with other characteristics
    Create Release Groups, Release Codes, Release Indicator for PR and finally Release strategies u2026u2026u2026..in Classification view for each releases strategy keep the department responsible and other values.

    Please go thru the below Release Procedure and check whether you have maintained all the settings properly.
    PO RELEASE STRATEGY
    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

  • 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.

  • Release strategy for PR with materials having different prices

    Hai Gurus
    Can we make a release strategy for a variant configured material ?
    I mean create a strategy in such a way that price is critical factor and the materials what ever we choose for the PR has different characteristics dependencies like for example ( A chair having different characteristics like color, material ( like steel, leather etc) and other features like wheels etc and whatever characteristics we choose has a different price.......... so when v come to the release strategy it has to be approved by the next level if it reaches $ 1000 and so on.
    please help me out in this issue

    Hello Arif Mansuri
    thanks for your reply, yes I have taken it as total value only. The scenario is I am asked to use three different characteristics ( total value, materials, MRP Controller) and assign them to a class and if the customer picks any number of different materials and if the price is more than 1000 then it has to reach to the next level for approval. i thought i am suppose to use object dependencies here......... can we do this in a normal release order if so how would be the strategy played here?
    thanks for your time

  • Release Strategy for Condition Records

    Hi,
    This is a requirement from my client. The client needs to give 4 levels of release strategy for the condition records created. The selling price for the products will be entered by person 1. This has to be approved by the sales execute (person 2); then by the sales manager (person 3); finally by the General Manager (Person 4). The selling price of the products ranges from 10 lakhs to 40 lakhs. so, the release strategy is needed. This type of release strategy is available in MM for PR and PO. Please let me know whether similar facility is available in SD. Any alternative is also solicited.
    Regards,
    K Bharathi

    Hi,
    Thanks for your valuable reply.
    I defined 3 Processing status (Menu path: SPRO >> SD >> Basic Fn >> Pricing >> Define Processing status). They are EU-End user, KU-Key user, MD-Final authority. These processing statuses are assigned to Release status. First two processing status EU, KU were assigned to A (Blocked). The third processing status MD was assigned to Blank (Released). The purpose is: at processing status EU one person will upload the price master. Second person will check the price and will change the processing status to KU if he satisfies with the accuracy of the price master. The third person (final authority) will check the price and set the Processing status MD. Once the condition record gets the status MD, the prices can be used for creating sales order because it is released.
    In the condition record for PR00, when I enterthe processing status  EU or KU the release status shows 'Blocked' release statuses. When I enter MD in the processing status, the release status show 'released'.
    My question is how can assign the responsibilities of changing the processing statuses EU to KU, KU to MD to two different persons.
