Purchase Requistion Release **IMP**

Hello Experts,
I have posted a thread before with same issue it was answered by lakhsmi but i really need your advise can we control release strategies through user ids (i mean SAP User ID) Is this a good practice for an instance
User A – can release any Preq upto x$
User B – can release any Preq upto xx$
User C – can release any PReq upto xxx$
Please if you can provide details in detail
Thank You
Justin

Hi,
We have the most complex release strategy setup in one of our clients' project ( in my entire experience, i can say this is the most complex one).  In this, exactly the same I have recently designed a solution as you are looking for....
However, it can not be addressed in standard SAP.  It requires User Exit usage.
In PO, of course, countless number of solutions can be developed in user exit (fortunately!!!).
How it works:
We have a ztable that provides the approval routes.  For example, for a plant and porg combination, we maintain all possible Approvers' list ( Literally User Names).  This approval route is one of the characteristics that determines release strategy.  I designed multiple release strategies for all possible approvers for their limit values in $s.  From the user exit, PO triggers a pop-up with allowed approvers for the plant and porg combination.  User got to select one (else, we triggered error message) based on the selected Approver (approval route), it looks for release strategy applicable.  Everything works fine...No issues about maintenance, if you create a z-transaction or z-table maintainable via SM30 in Prod system with limited access restricted to only COA maintenance person. 
Regards

  • Purchase Requistion Release Stratergy

    Hi,
    I have a situation where I need to get the details of the classification Net total in purchase Requistion for the particluar Release Stratergy and Release Group from the relevant table for raising an event manually in work flow, which I am uable to trace out.Please help in this regard for identifying the tables which holds the data of the Net value for the same.
    Thanks in Advance for your Help
    Regards,
    Krishna Mukthineni

    Hi Krishna,
    the classifications of the release strategy is best read via the API (interfaces) for the class system. To get quick results and to check, if your designed process could be working at all, you could hard-code the class' name and it's characteristics. Later on -- to be more precisely -- you should read the class name from the customizing and the characteristic definition from the class system.
    To get an example of how SAP determines the release strategy from the classification (which is kinda the other way round), you may consult the following function modules/coding sections:
    Function module ME_REL_COM_STRATEGY_EBAN
    --> Form strategie_neu
    ->-> Function module CLSC_SELECT_OBJECTS
    To see the usage of this function module within your system, you could set a break-point there and create/change a requisition in your system.
    The internal table iausp holds the values of the characteristics.
    The referenced characteristic you'll be possibly looking for is based on CEKKO-GNETW

  • Purchase Requistion Release Stategy not tiggering

    Purchase requision i have acivated 3 levels.
    i have used 3 characteristic like plant, doc type and value.
    1.<=30L
    2.>30 - 75 L
    3. > 75L
    first two level system s tiggering well. above 75 L system not triggering the release strategy. Its showoing Release starategy Inconsistent.. only 75L to 1 Crore not triggeing. above one crose system triggering the 3 level which > 75 L.
    Pls tell me how to rectify this error.

    Hi,
    sometimes it helps to set finite ranges. In your example the last range would 75-9999 (or seomething like this).
    But check if you really fulfil the criteria to reach this level.

  • Purchase Requistion release date as system date

    Dear Experts,
    Our Requirement is the top management want to know time taken to release a purchase requisition,means the duration
    between purchase requisition creation date to release date.
    here user are manually changing the release date to system date to know duration exact time duration between the creation date  and release date,so user requirement is the release date should be system date so he can easily understand when the requisition is released.
    we are thinking that,if we make the release date as system date,please suggest me.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Varun

    Dear Madhu,
    1.)     Whenever you are creating a new PR system will automatically take that PR creation date as system date.
    2.)     All the releases in SAP System will be recorded  as Item/Header change and system will maintain their history in Item/Header change details
    3.)     If your requirement is to track the duration between creation, release of levels it can be very much possible by creating a quary it self.

  • Purchase Requistion Release Reset by ME54n & ME54

    Dear all
    Once PR is created, then Released by ME54n or ME54, then RFQ is processed wrt PR, then after if user want to reset release by ME54, the system prompts error message and not allowed reset release. BUt if user use T-code ME54n, the system allows to reset release.
    we need, the system should not also allow to reset release for T-code ME54n.
    Please suggest solution
    Thanks
    RS

    Dear Vivek,
    I raised this to SAP and got reply from SAP.
    ===========================================================================
    ME54N allows the user to unrelease a purchase requisition linked to a
    purchase order or a request for quotation. Please see following
    attached note 686022 which explains this behavior.
    Symptom
    You create a purchase order (or a request for quotation) with reference
    to a released purchase requisition.
    If you use ME54N to unrelease the purchase requisition, the error
    message ME110 (or ME109) is not processed.
    Reason and Prerequisites
    ME54N allows the user to unrelease a purchase requisition linked to a
    purchase order or a request for quotation. This is correct behaviour andconstitutes a new design.
    The following modification keeps the old functionality (ME54) available.You have to customize message ME110 (or ME109) as an error message.
    After pressing the cancel release button, the system will process an
    information message (ME110 or ME109) and the release will not be
    cancelled.
    If you want to use the old functionality in ME54, you can implement the
    modification as note 686022.
    Hope this informatoin will be helpful.
    ===========================================================================
    Can you suggest, the error settings is already there and its trigger only for ME54, and not for ME54n
    AS per the reply from SAP, can advice me on this
    As per your previous reply, i got basis team and authorization team, to whom i need to ask to set M_EINK_FRG for ME54n?
    Thanks

  • Purchase Requistion Release Strategy Codes

    Hello,
    Do we have any solution where we can increase the number of PR release codes from sap standard 8 to say 10. Is there a user exit or function module to do that. let me know.

    There is nothing availble for this kind of issue.

  • Purchase Requistion Release Strategy

    Hi All,
    I have created new release code.
    but it not working.
    In the log i could see workflow error. Error is "Role resolution for code R4, group 02, effected via customer exit"
    could you please tell me what i am missing.
    Thanks,
    raju

    Hi Raju,
    In the documentation of Set Up Procedure with Classification
    Release codes
    Here you create the release codes that you need for your release
    strategy and assign the codes to your release group. If a release code
    is to be used in workflow, indicate this accordingly in the Workflow
    field.
    The Workflow indicator is also used to control role resolution:
    "1 - Role Resolution with Group, Code and Plant (T16FW)"
    Here you use a role resolution that is supplied in the standard system.
    To do so, you must assign the release point in the section Workflow (see
    below).
    "9 - Role Resolution via User Exit"              <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    Here you use customer exit M06B0001 to define a role resolution of your
    own.
    I guess you have defined a "9". In this case the user exit should be used or the workflow indicator should be changed to "1".

  • Release of purchase requistion

    Hi friends,
    We have made our purchase requistion can't be released without Fixed vendor. We have made this for ME54N(Individual release of PR).
    Users are smart enough to release them by using ME55(collective release of PR) without any fixed vendor assign to PR. How can we control this. PR can be released without fixed vendor.
    We controlled it in MM54N.
    How to control this in ME55.
    Please any help ??
    Thanks,
    Bhairav

    hi,
    just check by making the screen selection for PR Fixed vendor field mandatory.
    I have checked without release strategy and in MRP system is not suggesting for Fixed vendor,(but with some other problem i am not able to activate the release strategy in my system) while ur going to change the PR then system is asking for the Fixed vendor and iam assuming that after the release strategy activating for PR that generated through MRP and while releasing in ME54 or ME 55 system will ask for the fixed vendor, then he can save that PR.
    please check from ur end and please let me know.

  • Sales order released from Credit block, but Purchase Requistion not created

    Hi,
    In third party sales scenario based on Scheduline Line category configuration purchase requistion creates when the order is created. If order is blocked for credit check then purchase requistion will not be created until order released from credit.
    Here my scenario is
    I have two users like A and B. When A releases the order from credit block by using transaction VKM1, Sales order releasing from credit and creating Purchase requistion. But, if the order is released by B, Sales order is getting released from credit but purchase requstion is not getting created.
    There is no issue from security side, we activated trace and analysed everything it is not security issue.
    Thanks and Regards
    Alokam Chandra Sekhar

    Hi Lakshmi,
    Thanks for reply. I followed your instructions, pls find my observations below.
    1. Can you check the below settings:
    What is the Credit status in the header status tab page of the sales order for the B's sales order?
    Is it "Not approved or releasedu201D If it is not approved, you might have released the sales order in VKM3, but you might not have saved it.
    Reply: We are releasing order through VKM1 and after releasing the order the status is showing as "Released".
    2. Did you use the same material for B's Sales order? If it a different material check the Item category and Schedule line category whether these are same with A's sales order.
    Reply: Both the orders has same information, like material Item category and scheduline category
    3. Check in the Schedule line tab page --> Procurement button whether you have maintain vendor, Source determination and Info record.
    Source list has been verified through ME03 transaction and vendor data maintained correctly.
    I really appreciate your time and efforts on this.. looking forward some more suggestions...
    Thanks and Regards

  • Regarding Valuation tab in the Purchase requistion

    Sapgurus,
    i would like to omit the valuation tab in the Purchase requistion(ME51N) so that i dont want to display any value of the material  while creating the document.
    Please i need solution from your side.
    Thanking you
    Praveer

    hiding the field may be a solution if you always create requisitions with material masters, but in general you can create PRs without material master. In that case the user has to specify the price, which is not possible if the field is hidden. In other words, if you want to work with  release strategy at any time in future, then you just cannot, as you you dont have a price for PRs that have no material number.

  • Purchase Requistion with respect o cost centre

    Hi,
    My client is asking for a specific reqmt.
    Is there any possibility of configuring the release process for Purchase requistions with respect to cost centre threre are some where around 100 cost centres. if it is so how can i go ahead?
    Can any one guide me.
    Sunil

    Hi Sunil
    you can do like that what is your client requirment
    for this requirement you will have to create the Characteristic for Cost Center and assign this Cost Center Characteristic to Class
    That is the similar Process whatever you have create for item value and Plant only you will have to create the Characteristic with respect to cost center
    and all cost center to whom do you want to include, you will have to define in Classification tab
    all the process is same
    i hope this will make you more clear
    Thanks

    CHARAN.

    Hai Please read given below Information and please read status in table requisitionItems.
    This method enables you to list all purchase requisitions that have tobe released with a certain release code and group (collective release).
    Notes
    The authorization object M_EINK_FRG is checked.
    Transfer
    The release code must be passed on in the parameter RelCode and the release group in the parameter RelGroup.
    The parameter ItemsForRelease determines whether only thoserequisitions awaiting release are listed, or only those that have
    already been released. The latter is useful if you wish to have a listfor the purposes of cancelling releases that have already been effected.
    Return
    The result is returned in the table RequisitionItems.
    Return messages
    Messages are returned in the parameter return. The parameterdocumentation shows the return codes and their meanings. .
