Reg Release startegy, Class n characeristics

Hi
This is regarding PO release strartegy
I setup Release strategy for PO's in Development system, for each release startegy allowed characteristic values are mentioned during config as expected
I released transport to quality [we have 2 systems
1. In One quality system i forgot to maintain classes, i maintained class, but still i am getting error 'Error in classification (class 032 class type 032)'
2. in another quality system class and characteristics are maintained before releasing transport. when i see SPRO, system hasnt assigned allowed characteristics values for each release startegy? why?
Do i need to perform any thing else other than creating characteristics and classes?
What task should i b doing in target system
Thanks in advance

Thank you
i understood exept 'donot open the client in quality and assign the values' what does this mean ?
I am doing CL20N in quality only ?
i understood in Qulity[target sytem]i must perform below
--> create characteristics
--> create class and assign characteristics
--->CL20N assign allowed characteristic values for each release startegy

Release startegy for service PO

Hi,
Can you people help me out with release startegy for Service PO and service entry sheet?
Regards,
Satyendra

Hi,
Please refer below mention format.
SPRO -> Material Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Release Procedure for Purchase Orders.
Three steps involved in release process of purchase order.
1) Edit Characteristic: -
Create characteristic for release purchase order. If you want to release purchase order on purchasing group base. So you can create characteristic for purchasing group. Take reference of CEKKO structure and BKGRP field for purchasing group in additional data of characteristic. E.g :- Purchasing group - BKGRP
2) Edit Class: -
After creation of characteristic, create class for release purchase order. In which you can take reference of
Class Type: - 032,
Status: - Release,
Class group: - Release strategy class,
And put reference of your characteristic, which are created by you in first step.
E.g: - Class u2013 REL_PO
3)Define Release Procedure of purchase order: -
In this step four processes involved.
1) Release Groups
2) Release Codes
3) Release indicator
4) Release Strategies
1) Release Group: - In which you can define release strategy group
For Exa.: - Release group : - 01,Release object: - 01, Class: - REL_PO.
2) Release code: - In which you can define release code. Enter value as
Release group: - 01,release code: -01 u2013 Purchase Head,
Release group: -01, release code: - 02 u2013 Auditor.
3) Release indicator: - In this step you have to define release indicator.
Like X u2013 Blocked, I u2013 Under process, S u2013 Release.
4) Release Strategy: - This is the final step for release strategy.
Assign release code 01, 02.
Click on release prerequisites, select 02 u2013 check box and click on continue.
Click on release status button, enter release indicator X, I, S and click continue
Click on classification button, Enter values of purchasing group for which you want to created release strategy.
Note: - Create characteristics for service order document type in CT04.

PR Release startegy

PR release startegy should be flexible so that if we add any of the parameters, the program should follow the rules. The parameters that can be changed are:
1. Document Types
2. Project Types (We will need a custom table)
3. Plants Groups
4. Threshold Amounts
The routing of the Purchase requisition approval is primarily based on the amount on the requisition, the Plant, and the department the requisitioner belongs to.
In standard sap we have static parameters for release staregy, but here requiremnet is dynamic, when ever you chnage any of the parameters the syatem should adapt those chnages and the existing rules must apply for new one.

Why would you change Doc. Type?
If your requirements are not firmed than you should not raise requisition.
No matter how dynamic your business is, requisition raised for a particular requirement should not vanish or change in a day or so.
Practically speaking, it seems your supply chain is not process driven.
For such scenarios you should allow to create POs directly once the requirements are firmed and aprovals covered for POs only.

Purchase order release startegy

Dear Experts,
We have got release startegy for five release codes i.e L1,L2,L3,L4 and L5 for purchase orders
Release startegy is based on Pur order category,doctype, Net order value and Pur group.
For L1-L5 authorisation(all authorisations) is given for General managers.
Currently when emergency is there general Manager has to release L1 to L5 all release codes.
Requirement is that instead of releasing all can it be possible to release only L5 so that all can be released.( This authorisation is for only for L5)
Once the authorisation is there for all any customisation possible for releasing code L5 so that remaining all release codes can be released.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Dayanand

Hi Mr.Shawn,
I have removed ticks for L1,L2,L3,L4 in Release prerequisites then release startegy L1 L2 L3 L4 kept as Released.
Then Even if release one all releasing.
But Requirement is that when only L5 is released only All shall be removed, other wise remaining Releases shall be based on the old procedure only. L1 to L4 shall be L1 is released then only L2 can be released principle. But in case of L5 releases all shall be released.
Is it possible, what needs to be done ,please suggest.

Dayanand

Release Startegy for Item Category

Hi ,
Can we have a release startegy for PO for Charcetrstic Item category.
It do not have any reference in in Table CEKKO for any field.
Can you tell me how can I activate the item category as a charcetrstic value in PO release startegy.
Thanks,
Lekhram

PO release strategy always work at the header level but if oyu want to add the item level field as a char (in your case Item category) than you need use the user exit to insert the field in CEKKOZZ include of the CEKKO structure.
Use the user exit M06E0004 to insert your field in CEKKOZZ include.
once you get the field in this include then create the Char and use in classification.
But make sure one thing is that
Suppose you create the first line item of PO with Item category D and than you insert the second line with item category L and your release stratey doesn't have the both the item category than you are in problem
Or suppose your first line has blank item category and second one has item category than also you will have issue.
so make sure you create the PO for same item category without any othe combination to work with release.

Difrence between work flow n release startegy

hii frnds
can anybody tell me wats the difrence between work flow n release startegy ..
thnks
rohit

Workflow could be generic and can be configured for any process you want.
When you want to control the releases of the documents depending on the parameters that you want to configure, you use the release strategies. While configuring release strategies, you can develop some workflows.
Release strategies is more of a functional concept and workflow is the technical implementation.

Release Startegy

Hi,
We have configured PO release strategy by taking characters as Plant, Document Type, Value & Material Group.
To be clear release is working fine when we consider a single material in line item of PO.
We have 60 material groups and the release startegy is common for the material groups from 1 to 50 and the remaining 10 material groups 51 to 60 have different release strategy.
If I create a PO with the material group from 1 - 50 i.e. two or theree materials which belong different material groups the release is not applied for that PO.
For the same materials if I create PO for individual material i.e. only single material group the release is applied.
The release for PO isconfigured at header level. but the material groups are at item level.
Thanks & Regards
Sachin

Hi Sachin,
PO release strategy is only in header level not item level. So u should not consider Plant & Material Group as both the fields are in Item level.
Our release strategy willl work if the palnt & material groups are same for all the line items.
If there are multiple combination of plant & material group then release strategy won't affect.
Reward points if its helpful to you.

Reg release stratergy

Hi
Suppose in release stratergy customization 032 (class) is not mentioning wat will happen.

Hi
SAP has defined 032 class type specificaly for release strategy.
based on the calss the system will checks the values as per the class for the po, reqs, contract etc if u did not define it RS will not triggerd
Vishal...

Release strategy class

Hi,
Can we assign the two release class for the po release strategy.?

HI,
No,we can assign only one class.but we can assign multiple characteristics to this class.
Characteristics are used to define the criteria on which you wish your purchasing documents are to be released. For example it can be plant , value, Document type, Material Group etc.
The selection is based on the fields available in the tables for release, Like CEBAN for Requisitions and CEKKO for Purchasing documents.
If you want that Value shall be a criteria for release then you will make a characteristic for value, and define the value or value ranges, you have the option of going foe single value or multiple values. Like wise you can make diff Characteristics as per the Client Requirement.
Now all these characteristics can be grouped under a class.
Now this class is assigned to a release group.
Then when you create a release strategy, you can make many strategies under one group, where in you shall get the option of selecting value of Characteristic to be used in release stategy,
For eg. say I have a characteristic Z_Value. with values 1- 10000, 10001 - 20000. and other characteeristic as Z_Plant, with values 1000 and 2000.
Now you add this to a Class say Z_rel.
Assign it to a Group say 01
then while creating a release strategy say s1 unde group 01 you can choose plant value as 1000 and value as 1-10000.
so whenever there is a PO of value b/w 1-10000 and plant 1000 it will go as per the release strategy s1.
hope its useful for u

Dear Narendra,
We also faced same problem and found that the release strategy was not transported correctly .So my advice is that identify the correct transport and retransport it .Along with this please check all release strategy tables ,there will be some entries missing.

Reg.Release procedure

Dear Friends
One purchase order has to release by Internal auditor and then Purchase manager,i.e One PO is release by two persons from higher level to lower level after that only it is get released. how to configure this scenario. please help me.
Thanks
Rajakumar.k

Hi,
System should be designed to release the purchasing document from lower level to higher level not from higher level to lower level,if so no mean of approval process!
You can have release characteristics and release class, release group, the required release codes, Release indicator and add release codes to release strategy and arrange the release sequence of release from LOWER level to HIGHER level & check classification data( add characteristics value here) & finally simulate the release.
For more check the link/blog:

Release startegy--Purchase group

Hi,
I have included new created purchase groups into Characteristic value ,
but this purchase groups are not having release strategy into PO,
What other setting requires?
Devendra

Hi,
As you have already included newly created purchase groups into Release Characteristic value, just cross check you have VALUE of "newly created purchase groups " in the release statergy.if not VALUE need to add in to the Release Strategy.
As TR transported from customising client to testing client and you can directly add newly created purchase groups into Release Characteristic but the VALUE of "newly created purchase groups " can not be added directly in testing client for Release Strategy . Now add newly created purchasing groups in CL24N/CL20N for your Release Strategy with Release Group with Release Class.
