Hi,
First you set your all required configuration fro release strategy(Class,Char,Rel.Group,Release Strategy ,Release Indicator )
For Work flow settings,You have to do follwoing configuration:
MM - purchasing - purchase order - release procedure - Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders - Work flow - Enter release code, group, user ID, object type as user.
Creation of work flow object,activation of workflow and other related settings will be done by Techinical work flow consulant.

With a lock item in a purchase order, release strategy works?

Dear All,
I have a very important question for myself.
I have a purchase order with only one item.
I have set this item to locked.
Release strategy works without problems.
Is this situation correct?
I don't understand it but maybe the release strategy works normally too....
Please help me with a explanation
Thanks in advance

Yes, if a release strategy is applied to a PO, then even if you block / delete an item, it will still have the release strategy.
This is standard behaviour, because you can later remove the deletion indicator or unblock the PO, whence the PO will again have to go through the Release Procedure.

Event linakge for PO work flow not transporting to Qualty system

This is Sudhakar ,
I have a problem in Event linkage for PO Release strategy work flow.
I have created a work flow for PO release strategy and done the event linkage through SWETYPV transaction code.
I have added a new entry in SWETYPV transaction code and tick the 'Linkage Activated' check box. I have done this in development server. When I saved it prompted for a request and I have saved this Under the request( Customize request).
When I create the purchase Order for the first time the work flow is getting triggered. When I run the second time its not triggering.
If I observe the reason is 'Linkage Activated' check box is getting unchecked when I create the PO. If I check it again it is asking for a request again.But after next run the linkage is again deactivated.
Can you please help why this is happening.
I have created another request in Customize client and transported first the development client, next the customise client request. When I observe in quality system an entry is created in SWETYPV transaction code for my work flow but 'Linkage Activated' check box is not checked.
How to transport 'Linkage Activated' check box to quality.
This is an urgent one. Any body please help me
Thanks
Sudhakar

Hi Imthiaz,
What you said is correct. Its throwing one error in event trace
Feedback after error - The message is.
The mandatory input parameters of the workflow must be set.
I think I am missing some input parameters.
One more queation, I had transported this already to Quality
But the linkage activation flag is not moved. What could be the reason.
Thanks

Hello Hari,
please set a breakpoint at function module
ME_REL_GET_RESPONSIBLE
and see what happends in section
    CASE t16fc-frgwf.
* keine Ermittlung
      WHEN space.
        RAISE nobody_found.
* Ermittlung über T16fW
      WHEN '1'.
If using the T16FW-table, it should go to '1', otherwise it may that a user exit under '9' is used. So please check this.

Release Strategy in Purchase Order

Hi,
Can any explain the usage of Release Strategy in Purchase Order.
ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
Release strategy works the same way in purchasing documents (i.e. PR and PO). It is a form of control that company use to control the purchases made.
In your scenario, a PO release strategy is used to control the PO release status for Good Receipt process. Once the PR is released by the relevant releaser, you will see that the PR is now unblocked for issuance of PO.
Once the PO is issued with reference to the PR, it is now blocked again by a release strategy for user to perform Goods Issue. The releaser will evaluate the PO issued and determine if it is necessary to be released for GR / Service Acceptance process. At this stage, the releaser can still reject the PO although issued, and hence GR / Service Acceptance is not able to be performed. Different value will trigger different set of release strategy with different level of approvals, depending on how the PO release strategy is configured by the MM functional consultant. Usually, the PO release strategy has a flatter approving level as compared to PR release strategy, reason being that once the PR has been fully released by all releaser and the PO issued, usually the purchase is deemed necessary and PO releaser would usually consider to release the PO for GR or Service Acceptance process, unless there is discrepancy or sudden change in decision of Management.
Hence, all in all, the PO release strategy act as another form of control to the company to restrict the release of PO for GR or Service Acceptance.
Hope this will give u a better understanding on the function of a PO release strategy.
Rgds.

MM - purchase order release strategy

During approval process thru work flow for a Purchase Order, among various approvals (codes). Here after creation of PO by first person(buyer), second approver able to see PO in his SAP inbox and when second person approves it, it is moves to third person's inbox.But if second person rejects the PO, rejection message (status)is not coming to the first person (buyer)to view and modify it according to the second person's requirement.
Can anybody help me in this case.
Murali

Hi ,
Its possible to give message to the initiator ( i.e the Po creator ) about the rejection of the Po during the approval process with work flow. Further , if the creator makes changes to the po , the same can be re subjected to release and work flow again. This functionality can be achieved only through good design and coding of the work flow. You will have to seek help from ABAP consultants in your team.Otherwise , you may post this in Net weawer forum, and you will get the right answer quickly.
Hope this information helps you.

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.

Contract Release Strategy - error

Hi Guys
I have one problem in Defining Release Strategy for Contract.
scenario : i want to create RS for PR,Contract and PO for all the three.
Well i am able to create RS for PR and PO but when i try to make RS for contract , it doesnt work.
it give information message : - Purchasing document XXXXXXXXX not subject to RS. and "Message no. ME298"
I am using the Same Table CEKKO for making the RS of contract.
Characteristic
1) GNETW - >=000*
2) BSTYP - A CHECK BUTTON COMES FOR SELECTION:
K Contract
*F Purchase Order
3) BSART - A CHECK BUTTON COMES FOR SELECTION:
MK/ WK - Contract
NB Purchase Order
I have make the RS like this :
Class : Est_lib_CEKKO
Release Group : CO - for Contract/ PA and PB - for PO
Release Code : CA/ AA/AB
WHERE : CO -> CA, PA and PB --> AA/AB
Release Indicator : 0 - RELEASE
1 - BLOCKED
in classification for CO
1) GNETW : >=00,1
2) BSTYP : K
3) BSART : MK/WK
If someone knows how to fix it, please i thank you.
Regards
Antonio Oliveira

Hi,
PO release strategy working fine, then you should not have any problem now for contract also as you have separate release group for contract CO, have own release indicators( PO & Contract) and have following in RS of contract in classification
1) GNETW : >=00,1
2) BSTYP : K
3) BSART : MK/WK
Just change <=000 in GNETW and save, now try creating contract to have difference.
Generally value are to be in GNETW others follow as per business (it may differs company to company) are as like example <=100000, 100000.01-1000000.00 & 1000000.01-20000000.00, > 20000000.00

Purchase Requisition Release Strategy help

SAP Gurus,
I have set up PR release strategies for item level and it is not working. Our setup is as follows:
Document type NB with "Overall release of purchase requisitions" unchecked
3 characteristics defined: one for Line item total, cost center, and an account assignment category.
1 class with all three characteristics assigned
1 Release group with "Overall release of purchase requisitions" unchecked
104 different release codes
127 different release strategies with varying combinations of cost centers and dollar amounts.
Executed cl24n with all release strategies.
Now when i enter a PR with amounts and cost centers that should trigger the release strategy, it is not triggering.
I executed CL30N with different parameters and none of them register.
The only clue i have as to what could be wrong is when running OMGQCK, it lists that the release group does not exist, but it does. Message 620401/2006 references note 365604 lists the problem i am experiencing, but none of the suggested steps have corrected the problem.
I would appreciate any suggestions anyone has on what i can try to get this release strategy working
Thanks,
Rachel

hi,
Check your release codes and its assignments in the release strategy..
Also do check whether the PR is liable to trigger for the given characteristics as compared to your PR which you are making...
