Do we have any table for checking the changes made to a P.O in terms of Release strategy?
Have a Nice Day.

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.

Hi
we have also did some changes to relase codes after once in use & we had encountered some problems in the PO.
For E.g. If you have the previous repease codes as L1 & L2 , & if you are removeing the L2 form the release codes then All the PO's whcih are approved by L1 & awaiting tobe approed by L2 will be in hanging status. You need to go into each PO 7 click on revoke acceptance & Click on check then The new relase codes will appear.
If you can clearly explain what you are planning to do on the relase codes , then we can advise you in the right manner.
Thanks & Regards

Old POs affected by release strategy change

Hello,
Recently major changes were made to a group of release strategies for our business. The new release strategies are being applied correctly to all new POs. However, even POs created before the change of release strategies are showing the new strategies. Even the old POs which have already been released and goods received are showing the new strategies. How can this be corrected? POs created before the change should be showing the old strategies. Thanks in advance.
Regards

Hi,
First of all, I don't suggest to bring back the old release strategies as it will mess up the entire system and to me it does not make sense at all as the efforts to solve these issues with old POs are significant and believe me, you will encounter a lot of pains and frustration. What I suggest hereunder is as simple and effective as I thought given your current situation -
1) In regard to those old POs (I hope the number is small up to now) to which the new release strategies are applied, you will have to use ME28 for mass release. Of course, you can develop the simple ABAP program which can allow mass approval (if you wish to).
2a) If you did not eradicate your old release strategies through configuration (i.e. you used only "2" to block your old release strategies in CL20N Transaction), then you can select the proper value in the "Changeability" field of your "released" release indicator that was used in your old release strategies. This selection will allow the fact that no new release strategy will be applied for your old POs in case of change.
2b) If it turns out that your old release strategies were deleted from the current system (which I don't really know why), then the only solution you should do is to inform your end users of not making any change in the old POs.

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.

Edited by: satish kumar on Apr 18, 2009 9:13 AM

Hi,
For Creation it working fine right, i.e. Event triggering fine
1) After Changing the PO, save it
2) And tell functional consultant, whether they configure for the settings for PO change in SPRO

What is the name of the table where Release Strategy changes are maintained

Dear Friends,
Every time I make the changes in the Release Strategy Codes the Signature of the Approver changes in the Output. The problem is that it even changes for the Older PO's which are already approved by some other approver. Is there any way this problem can be sorted out? or can any one give the name of the table which records the changes made in the Release Strategy along with time and date? I will be really thankful if you guys can help me out!

Hi Chintan,
I hope you are talking about the release codes, which we attach later on to user Ids and signature means its description. I hope followed correctly.
In standard system, as and when you change the description of release code at back end, it gets reflected on front end. No matter whether its old or new PO. There is no way out to stop this. Every time you display the purchase order, the release codes checks for description at back end and displayes the same. Still, it should not bother you, as the already released PO dosent get affected for any changes you do at back end in the entire release strategy.
Beside the tables mentioned by other friends AUSP is the table where all release related entries gets stored.
I hope it clarifies.

Hi
What are the characteristics of your strategy?
Try to change one of them save and then rechange it to the original
eg.
If the strategy depends for example on the Purchasing Group (PG)
i mean according to different PG's different strategies working
then with ME22N change the PG save and rechange it again to the original.
or
for example If the strategy depends on Materail Groups (MG)
then do the change with MG
With ME22N change the MG save and rechange it again to the original.
I guess this will trigger the strategy again.
Hope it helps
Best Regards

Change in Purchase Order Release Strategy Values

Dear All,
I am in process of changing Purchase Order release strategy values.
I have following release strategy -
                       Current Value                  (Proposed Value)
Level 1 -         Upto INR 0.1 Mn               (Proposed value - Upto 1.0 Mn)
Level 2 -         From 0.11 Mn to 0.5 Mn   (Proposed Value - From 1.01 Mn to 5.00 Mn)
Level 3 -         From 0.51 Mn to 1.0 Mn   (Proposed Value - From 5.01 Mn to 10.0 Mn)
Level 4 -         Above 1.0 Mn                  (Proposed Value - Above 10.0 Mn)
My questions are -
1) Will this change affect the existing Purchase Orders (already created) which are not yet released?
2) Will this change affect the existing Purchase Orders (already created) which are released?
3) Are there any risk factors?
Can you pl. put light on above questions?
Regards,
Prashant Kolhatkar

Hi,
Actually, what you had given is not enough to determine if the existing PO will be impacted or not
If you are just changing the classification but not changing the number of release level of the release code in the release strategy, the partial released PO will not be impacted unless there's PO changes. PO that are released will definitely not be impacted unless there are changed.
In general, after a release strategy is determined for PO, SAP will retrieve the latest list of release code of that release strategy for display for that PO. If this list never change (mean you only change classification of the release strategy), then they will not be apparent to the user. But if this list change (you add new release code, replace existing release code or remove release code), then you will see some discrepency on screen as you will only see the modified list of release code and not the old list of release code
Hope this help

PO Release Strategy not changed after deletion of few line items with less

Subject : PO Release Strategy not changed after deletion of few line items with less Total PO
Dear Friends
We have issue with PO Release strategy. We have created the PO. with release strategy with multiple approvers. After approval of first approval manager , one of the PO line item got deleted and Total PO value is reduced . The new PO value should have changed the PO release strategy. But it is not changed. Old release strategy only showing in the PO which is wrong.
Details of the PO
PO no 4500000123 with 5 line items Total PO value : 100,000 USD Release strategy : AB
PO line item 5 deleted. Now total PO value changed to 50,000 USD and the PO release strategy should have been changed to AA but not changed. Still showing PO release strategy AB only.
Are there any OSS notes available to correct his bug.
Please let me know if you need more details
Thanks in Advance

Release Strategy to be reset for any change in purchase order

Hi Experts,
At present the release strategy configured is for any change in the value of the purchase order, the release strategy is reset. Now the the client wants that for even any text change of a word, text, quantity, value, addition, deletion the release strategy should be reset.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Diwakar,
I too have the same problem. I tried with Changeable indicator "1". The system does not allow to make any change to the Purchase Order even after the first level of Release. But the requirement is that the system should Reset the Release Strategy for even minor Change in the PO.

Reset Release Strategy for any change in the Purchase Order

Hi,
Is it possible in SAP standards to reset release strategy for even minor changes in the Purchase Order irrespective of whether it is value change or any change in the text or Purchasing group change or whatever it is?
If so, where do we need to make the configurations.
I have seen in some thread about resetting the release strategy for decrease in Purchase Order value.Even that was possible through some BAPI.
Thanks in Advance.
