Purchase Requisition, overall release

Hi All,
I am using the overall release for my release groups. The releasing strategy depends on the cost center.
The releasing is workling fine so far, after I created a PR, the release tab appears in the header. BUT if I enter several items in one PR with different cost centers, the release tab does not appear. This also happens, if I enter 2 items with different cost centers in the PR and both of them are assigned to the same release strategy.
Are there any configuration in SAP to prevent this or do I have to use the itemwise release for that?
Thank you!

Purchase Requisition Overall Release problem with several CostCenter

Hello Gurus!!
I need your comments!!!
I define the Purchase requisition as Overall Release, and woks !! but I have a Issue.
I have an entry in the CL24N txn as follow:
AccAssgCat = K
Plant              = CC01
CostCenters = 10001
                        10002
                        10003
totalAmt        = 1USD to 1000US
So when I create my purchase requisition with only 1 Cost Center the release strategy is called and PR can be released.
But When I create the purchase requisition with CC 10001 and 10003, the requisition is not subjet to release!!! (note TotalAmt = 15usd)
I assume that as both are into the release strategy the system will take both CC and ask for release!!
What I can do to fix this situation??

Dear Marco Antonio,
I have never faced your issue, but have an idea of what you can do.
Activate Enhancement M06B0005   EXIT_SAPLEBND_004
Then in the program zxm06u31 put the following code line:
e_ceban = i_ceban.
and also a breakpoint so that it stops automatically upon PR verification or saving.
Activate and then create a PR with the problem you are facing. On saving the program will stop in your breakpoint.
Look at structure i_ceban there you will find the values that your release strategy is getting from the document and with which it will try to determine the strategy based on your classification.
I the standar logic is not what you want maybe you can put some logic of your own based on account assignments in structure C_EBKN.
Well, tell me what happens

I hope u understood.

Creating purchase Requisition and release Overview

Hello,
We have some User which have the authorization to create a purchase Requisition and also to release it by themselves.
We have to Monitor this cases and I' looking for a possibility to check this on a easy way.
I found the Report "Changedocu_read". There I can check several changes in the PR and see who released it. But there I can not see which User created the PR.
The table EBAN has the informations about the User who created the PR and if it had to be released and some more informations. But the informations who released the PR is missing.
I tryed a table-join of the tables EBAN and CDHDR. But it was not possible, because the PR Number (Filed "BANFN" in the EBAN) has not the same format as the number in the Filed "object value" in the table CDHDR.
Perhaps someone has an idea ?
Or there is an Standard Transaction which I did not found to have an overview of the PR and the releases
It would be enough to see following informations with one Join or Transaction:
-PR Number
-Creation Date
- Transaction code
-Change Date
-Release Status
-Released date
-Released by User
I have the same Topic also by purchase orders and the release of them.
Thank you in advance
Regards
Dirk

Thanks both for the quick reply.
@AKPT
The Transaction is nice and helpful to Display some informations. But similar results I also receive when I use the Programm : "changedoc_read". I also had the idea to join the informations of the 2 sources in Excel. For me this Workaround would be ok.
But unfortunately I' m looking for an simply way (for the Enduser). To get this informations mentioned above in one overview directly in SAP.
They have to use this check regularly, to Monitor if there were some wrong Releases.
If there is not such a way then we have to join it in Excel.
But if you have some other suggestions I'm happy to hear them.
Regards
Dirk

Purchase Requistion : Overall Release Problem

Hi everybody,
Have a peculiar problem where Item Level release seems to be working fine. And the first time we want to use release at header level and its not working.
The OverReqRel (overall requisition release) is 'checked' [at release group level].
There is just one class, one characteristic within that class (document type).
There is just one group, release code, release indicator and release strategy.
The classification has 'NB' as the document type to be controlled.
The simulation works fine.
The 'Check Release Strategies' shows 'all green' with no errors.
But when we create a PR (txn ME51N) for document type NB, this procedure does not kick in (hence i dont see a new tab at the header level asking for a release).
We have been using item wise release before and are testing the viability of release at header level.
FYI. This is a test system (sandbox) where we have NO configuration for release procedure. This is the first strategy that has been created for testing.
Any help in getting this to work is most welcome.

Hi,
For the document type NB, did you flaged as PR header level release.
Regards,
Ramakrishna

Purchase Requisition(PR) release related

Hi ,
We have in our system PR release strategy - Release strategy without classification.
For releasing PR's at the moment we have roles assigned at different levels.
For example a person having role z_release_lvl_1 will have access to release codes 01 ;
z_release_lvl_2 will have access to release codes 01 and 02.
z_release_lvl_3 will have access to release codes 01 , 02 and 03....and so on till
z_release_lvl_6 will have access to release codes 01 , 02 , 03 , 04 , 05 and 06.
Requirement - We want that anyone who creates a PR should not be able to release his own PR to reduce the risk of fraud.
Release level 6 role would be with senior management. So at the moment they can create PR's and also release then because they have access to all release codes from 01 till 06.
Main concern is for people who have access to z_release_lvl_1 because these people can raise requisitions and also approve them on their own.
Any ideas of how to restrict users who themselves raise PR's can be stopped from releasing also ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vinayak

Hi Vinayak,
As far as your Scenario is concern,
1) why the person who is creating the PR, is having ME54 Authorization.
2) you can control the same via Roles and Authorization.
3)
You Said
For releasing PR's at the moment we have roles assigned at different levels.
For example a person having role z_release_lvl_1 will have access to release codes 01 ;
z_release_lvl_2 will have access to release codes 01 and 02.
z_release_lvl_3 will have access to release codes 01 , 02 and 03....and so on till
z_release_lvl_6 will have access to release codes 01 , 02 , 03 , 04 , 05 and 06.
why is it that the person with role Z_release_M_2 is having the Authorization for releas e code 02.
if the person with the with the role is Z_RELEASE_M_6 is having the authorization of all the release codes 01-06 then there is no point of having any junior level.
they can create the PR themselve and release it and the procure the material.
apart from this as the business says that the Creator of PR shoild not have the Approval Authorization and the PR approval Authority should not have the releasing Authority.
Hope I have helped you out.

Yawra Khan

Purchase Requisition Item release not in the change log of the item

Hello Experts,
I have developed a report that displays when purchase requistions have been relesased. To do that, I have used the change table to track the time and date.
However, a lot of the requistions do not have the release as a change. I am not able to recreate it, and I am not able to point at anything special with the ones that does not have a change log.
Have anybody else experienced this? I am a bit stuck
rgds
GAR

has there been a change in the release strategy cusotmizing. maybe the PR was not subject to a release as it was created, but new PRs of the same kind are subject because of this change in customizing?
There are not many possibilities:
a) PR was not subject to release strategy
b) release indicator got cleared by own program or table maintenance
c) program bug (never saw one for change history of PRs)
do you use workflow for releasing? if yes then you can check the log of the workflow item and proof the evidence for a program bug.

Custom field update in Purchase Requisition Final Release

Hi,
We have PR release strategy at Item level.
In PR table EBAN include I have added new field as ZZREL_DT (for final release date), This Field I want to update when final release will get triggred for the PR item.
For updating this custom field I have try with Enhancement 'M06B0002' but system is not updating the value in new field , and as in BADI 'ME_REQ_POSTED', the IM_EBAN is an importing structure ,system is not allowing to change the value if we implement this BADI.
Is there any user exit or BADI, to update this custom field, I want to update the system date when user releasing the PR item with ME54N or ME55 transaction.

Ability to Change Overall limit in Purchase Requisition after PO creation.

Hi,
I have created a Service Purchase Requisition and released it.Then, I created a Service Purchase Order with reference to the above created Purchase Requisition and released and saved.
Now, when I go to the Purchase Requisition after creating a Purchase Order, I want to change the values for the Overall Limit and the Expected Value but they are greyed out.
But what I have noticed is that if I create a Standard Purchase Requisition and release it and then create a standard Purchase Order with reference to the standard PR and release it and save it, I am able to edit the values even after the PO has been created.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Puneet Jhari.

Issue in Purchase Requisition Release Strategy

Hi guru,
I've got an issue in the release strategy;
I have a PR with 3 lines. After Relase I've deleted the last line and system doesn't allow me to release it by ME55 transaction; I'm able to do it only by ME54N.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Marco,
I had a problem with ME55 and i wrote to SAP OSS.
The first OSS answer was:
Can it be that your requisition has some deleted items?. If yes, then
take into account the following:
Please consider the definition of ME55 "Collective release":
You release ALL requisition ITEMS or COMPLETE requisitions that are
awaiting processing by your release code.
And also the definition of "the field overall release of PReq":
Determines that the items in a purchase requisition are ALL released at
at the same time (rather than individually).
That means:
If there are some items which can't be released (may be they are
deleted), the transaction ME55 can't be used - so you have to release
over the individual release (and that's why you get this
message in ME55).
If you get such a message for a purchase req. in ME55 you can go over
the menu to release this item(so you don't have to call ME54 directly):
Select the item and choose Goto -> Individual release.
There is a difference between overall release and collective release.
Overall release means that a purchase requisition is released on
header level and not on item level. Collective release means that
several purchase requisitions can be released at the same time.
When one line of a requisition subject to overall release is deleted
you are asked to use the "single release" functionality in transaction
ME54.
Once you delete a line item you MUST work with ME54 to release each
item. By deleting a line you effect the whole purchase requisition
hence collective cannot be used. This is standard SAP functionality.
In this case, you have to individually release each requisition item
through transaction ME54.
I hope this is useful to you.

Release strategy for purchase requisition does not kick in

Hi Gurus!
I've been struggling with this issue for some weeks now.
I have set up the release strategy configuration for purchase requisitions with classifications.
However, if I create a purchase requisition the release functionality is not taken into account by the system.
See below some more information regarding my configuration:
1. I've created a new characteristic "REL_PR_GROUP". Status: released, Multiple values, Number of Chars 3, 7 values (TR1, TR2, TR3....TR7), Table name: CEBAN, Field name: EKGRP, Procedure for value assignment set to not ready for input.
2. I've created a new class: "REL_PR_ANPC". Class type 032, Status: released, Same classification: do not check, Char: "REL_PR_GROUP"
3. I have one release group "T1", Rel. object 1, OverReqRel is marked, Class: "REL_PR_ANPC"
4. I have 5 release codes. Grp: T1, Code: 01....05
5. I have 2 release indicators:
"R = Released", Rel. for ordering is marked, Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
"X = Blocked", Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
6. I have 1 release strategy:
"T1 with Grp T1"
- one release group, 01 Manager
- release prerequisites not applicable because of only one release group
- release status, nothing marked = blocked, 01 marked = released
- classification, purchasing group is TR1 or TR2 or TR3 or TR4 or TR5 or TR6 or TR7
I intentionally kept the configuration as simple as possible so I can try to get it working first.
Now if I create a purchase requisition for an item with release group T1, I would expect the release strategy to be activated. However, this is not the case. I don't see the "release status" tab in the PR, and if I try to relase via ME54 the system says the PR is not relevant for release.
Could you please assist in getting this working?

Hi,
Have you checked in CL30/CL30N if your release strategy is derived successfully?
See section 3 of Note 365604. A small section of it:
You can use transaction CL30 search for an object using the data
of the purchase requisition/purchase order. Here, it is important
that the object search determines exactly one strategy. If this
is not the case, this indicates that there are overlapping
strategies in the system or that the release strategies in
Customizing do not correspond with those from transaction CL24.
See the previous point. If the object search returns more than
one result, the system subsequently determines an incorrect
release strategy or no release strategy at all.
If it is derived successfully, next, check the user exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_001 as per Note 371667:
The following assignment statement has to exist within activated SAP
enhancements M06B0002 (include zxm06u13) and M06B0005 (include zxm06u31)
for purchase requisitions:
E_CEBAN = I_CEBAN.

Purnima.

Purchase Requisition Attachement Should not be Modified when it is released

Hi Experts,
I've a requirement that, In ME52N, if the Purchase Requisition is Released then, the user should not add or delete or change the Attachments. Pl help me in this how to do.
Regards
Rajiv.

Thanks giri.
For the following reasons, the billing documents are not released to accounting.
1. If the user wrongly chosen the billing type for the delivery.
2. After creating condition type, it has to be assigned in COPA. If we forgot to do it, billing doc will not released.
Our requirement is that if the billing document is not able create accounting document, the billing document itself should not be generated.
Hope this will be suffice to understand my issue and suggest a suitable solution.
Points will be rewarded.
Regards,
Kumar.
