Purchase Requisition Release Strategy wont trigger

All:
I have set up what i thought was a simple purchase requisition release strategy. Parameters are as follows:
1.) Doc Type = NB set up as CEBAN-BSART
2.) Acct Assn Category = k set up as CEBAN-KNTTP
3.) Purch Org = 300 set up as CEBAN-EKORG
4.) Overall Value = 0-1000, 1000-10000, 10000-50000, >50000 set up as CEBAN-GFWRT
Release group is set for overall release, i've checked the release strategy with OMGQCK and everything was good to go, checked CL30N and everything was triggering, checked table T16FS and there weren't any fishy entries. Oh also, i've tried deleting and recreating the entire release strategy at least 3 times.
Whenever i create a purchase requisition, i get no release tab. Not sure what else i'm missing here.
Any help is appreciated!

I created 4 characteristic with the above mentioned criteria (doc type, purch org, net value, & account assignment category). I assigned all 4 of these characteristics to a class.
Matrix is as follows:
0-1000, doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01
1000-10000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01 & 02
10000-50000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01, 02, & 03
>50000 doc type NB, purch org 3000, acct assignment 'k' needs approval from release code 01, 02, 03, & 04

Overall Purchase requisition Release strategy : Changed after Rejected

Hi All,
I have activated overall purchase requisition Release strategy (20000077) . And its working fine when PR is released at each level and saved.
Problem I have is when PR is rejected .
When PR is rejected , workitem is created for initiator with ME52 transaction. When initiator changes the contents of PR and saves , the release strategy should resume back from where it stopped. Thats means when Approver A rejects the PR, after initiator make changes , the workflow should trigger back with a workitem for release to approver A.
But its not happening as expected. When Approver A rejected the PR and initiator changes the PR , Nothing is triggered, as there is no event raised at this point.
ME52 changes for PR is not trigerring any event which can trigger the WF.
Is there any way we can trigger Workflow in this scenerio.
Please suggest.

Hi Subhashini,
This all depend on release strategy. release should reset completely on tha change.
For the increase of quantities or values you can maintain tolerance limits in the Customizing. When you increase the amount or value via the tolerance limit the system will reset the release.
When you reduce quantities or values the system only resets the release if another release strategy is determined for the lower quantity or the lower value.
If no other release strategy is determined by the reduction of the
amount or value, the system will keep already existing releases.
changeability in Release indicator also play a major role. You should set it to either 3 or 4. Now if you change any field, which is also used in any charecteristics in release, it will lead to reset of release startegy.

Purchase requisition release strategy tab missing

Hi all
I configured purchase requisition release strategy and ME51N is working issuing no error but it is not displaying Release Strategy Tab , please help me where i am wrong.

hi,
check few reasons:
1. There might be more than 1 release strategy using the same class, due to which it is not possible for sap system to determine the unique rel. strategy..this normally happens when you copy the exsisting class and assign it to own new one...
2. check the release strategy OMGSCK, is there any problem with your release strategy...
3. Check whether you have maintained all the classified field in the document or not..
4. check whether the release is assigned to any workflow...if so, then check the inbox pls...

Tranposrt - Purchase Requisition Release Strategy with Classification

Gurus!
Tell me if I want to Transport the Purchase Requisition release strategy with classification. The Data in each charisteristics in each PR Strategy that I have set in Dev is not getting transported to Quality.
Do I have to enter the data in characteristics again in Quality and the same procedure I have to apply for Production.
If yes, in this scenario, Can I make Production modifiable.
Regards
Sajid

Hello,
Create a special ID in PRD with access to change characteristics. This ID should be released for specific purposes and with approval (project manager/SAP support manager). You can also turn on auditing so that all activites performed are logged which can be used to satify auditors.
Cheers !

Purchase Requisition Release Strategy - multiple account assignments

Hello,
We would like to be able to create a purchase requisition where each line item can have 1of 3 account assignments (KNTTP). These 3 account assignments all have the same Release Strategy. Our expectation was that the purchase requisition would have a release strategy but it doesn't. If we use 1 account assignment withmultiple line items we get a Release Strategy but if we mix them we get nothing.
Does anyone know how to make the Release Strategy show up for multiple account assignments that share the same Release Strategy?
Regards,
Corinne Taylor

Dear Corinne Taylor,
You may assign a BLANK value in the characteristic:
You can add also as " " and named it as BLANK so you can have your release strategy get trigger
for all MRP account assignment or multiple account assignment.
Example setup
Account assignment A
Account assignment K
Release group X1 strategy 01 classfication has blank in values.
Classification:
Value Description
A         Account assignment A
K        Account assignment K
           BLANK
Test this and it will work.
Best Regards,
Ian Wong

Purchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition

Hello Gurus
We want to set up the urchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition ..Any can one Please share your experience about the impact down the road?
Thanks
Nick

Hi,
If you want include the MRP related PR in Release strategy.
You need to include the field CEBANESTKZ-Creation Indicator (Purchase Requisition/Schedule Lines) in one of the characteristics which you create and include the characteristics value as per the field values like AReal time, BMRP, CConverted Planned order etc.. and include the charactristic in the Release Strategy will release group & release codes.
So when ever the PR is created through MRP run then this creation indicator will update in the PR as per that release Strategy will trigger in the PR.
there is one more option you need to create the separate document type as MRP PR then create document type as characteristics and include the values of all these document types and include in Release strategy.
But it will not pop up for direct PR from MRP run only trigger when planned order is converted to PR manually there you need to select this MRP document type then release strategy will trigger.
I think first one is best suited.

The requirement is that when a purchase requisition with a given combination (Purchasing Group, Material Group and Account Assignment Category) is created and saved, it should trigger a workflow for approval of release or rejection to one specific business manager. If he dont responds in 2 days, it should be sent to other business manager. If any one of them releases the requisition, it should send a mail to the requestor that the requisition is released. And if it is rejected, then also a mail to be sent to the requester informing that his requisition is rejected...

Release Purchase Requisition - "Release strategy"

Hi there,
I am trying to release a purchase requisition. I looked in the table "EBAN" and i can see the entry or in other words, the requisition i created. In the Release indicator, Release status and Release strategy fields, these are empty. How do i add information to these fields which appear to have missing data?
Speedy repsponse would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Motolani Fatuga

Hi Motolani
spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Requisition>Release Procedure>Procedure with Classification>Set Up Procedure with Classification-->Release strategy
Select release strategy> Go to details>classification
here check what are the charactaristic and what are the values maintained for it
Check this for all release strategy
Mostly PR release strategy is based on Document type and PR Value
Check whether UR PR fits in release strategy criteria
Suppose Total value of requisition is maintained as 1000-2000
If UR PR value is less than 1000 Then PR will not subject to release

User Exit for getting Purchase Requisition Release Strategy

Hi Experts,
When a user creates a PR I need to know the user exit I need to implement so that the First Approver (Processor) text in the Release Strategy is populated from a custom table. I have seen that the field is MEREL_S_GRID1-STEXT. I also need to know if I can implement a user exit so that it pulls the release strategy for a PR for assets (Acct Category A) since it is pulling for Acct Category K (Cost Centre) and the Release Strategy tab is appearing in this case.
Kind Regards,
Darlington

Hi Meenakshi,
Thanks for the very useful answer. It has given clues on how to resolve this issue. I have resolved this issue for the Asset item category using the following thread: user exit for requisition release strategy, and also SAP Note 365604.
However, I have another issue, the release strategy for Stock Items, (item category blank) is not pulling through. I need to use the same method above but would like to know how it determines the funds centre for a specific stock item. I couldn't find where that is implemented in the material master and I need info on how to determine the account assignment for stock items based on the funds centre.
Regards and Thanks.

Purchase requisition release strategy

I want each purchase requisition should be created with valid release strategy. The problem presently is that if somebody puts wrong parametes (such as purchasing group, currency) the purchase requisition will not be applicable to release and the purchase order can be easily created. So in such cases there is no need to release purchase requisition which is not correct for business point.
Pls advise.

Hi Balaji
Ur need is appreciated but inorder for that to work we have to make sure that all the possible combinations exist in ur characteristics list which may not be possible all times.
So better way would be to check whether the characteristics combinations of ur class and the corresponding data of ur requisitions matches and trigger error msg if differs.
Ex: Plant and doc type be the characteristics used in ur class.
Check whether the PR has only the plants and doc types that is specified in ur release strategy and if no trigger error msg.
Try this using BAPI also. Get help from ur ABAPer.
Thx
Raja

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...

Problem in purchase requisition release strategy code

Hi
We are facing a problem in purchase requisition, a new release strategy was created and change request transported but when PR is displayed in release strategy chart a same user is showed in different release strategy code.
Note: new strategy was copied from other.
Thanks in advance.

hi,
As you said tht you have copied the release stategy n created the new one...
If you do so, you would have copied the class also...to which the release group is attached...
If this is the case, then system doesn't recognise the new one, and inorder to solve it you have to define the new characteristic and class...then assign this class to the release group and make your release strategy again...
Once you do this check the release strategy at OMGSCK...and then try at PR...
You do all settings at :
SPRO >> IMG>> MM >> Purchasing >> PR >> define release strategy >> W/o classification >> here edit characteristics/class and all other link are provided...

Reset Of Purchase Requisition Release Strategy

Dear Peers,
Release strategy for PR at header level is defined (Overall Release). If we make any changes or add another line item to the same PR, the release strategy is required to get reset to unreleased state. But this is not happening.
Same for PO is valid & working ok
Please suggest
Mayank

Read this -- With the Changeability indicator, you specify the effects of
changes to a requisition. For example, certain changes may require
a new release strategy to be determined for the requisition.
Via the Value change field, you can cause the release strategy to
be re-started if the value of a purchase requisition item is
increased by more than a certain percentage (e.g. 10%). To do so,
set the Changeability indicator to "4 - Changeable, new release in
case of new strategy or value change" and enter a percentage in the
Value change field.
<b>
The release stra can be reset in one case only and that is whenever you change the reqs which changes teh value of reqs then system will reset the release back to original statu and to do that you have to set the changebility indicatior to 4 and changes 0.1 that means whenever req change and value is changes to .1 % then ystem will reset the req to relase again </b>
Hope this will help you
