Release for purchase order for workflow

explain me about the release procedure for purchase order i am comfortable with all steps but for the last step were we will be defining the settings for workflow

It's all fine and dandy that you want to be polite and reply to every reply with a "thanks for your reply", but it isn't very informative. In fact, I'm leaning towards calling it SPAM, but that is perhaps going a bit too far. Such replies do not add one bit of information, they just mark the thread as having contents added since I last visited, and wastes my time as I look at the thread to see what new information has come up.
At the risk of sounding rude, could you please quit your habit and instead mark the question as answered if any of the answers solved your problem (handing out forum points where appropriate)? If none of the replies solved your problem, then please tell us how far they got you and what's stopping you now.
Thank you.

Purchase Expenses Dr
Purchase Setoff Cr
I understand that i can configure for the first set of posting in BSX and WRX. How do i configure for the Purchase Expenses and Purchase Setoff.
Please advise and correct my understanding.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
The possiblity for this scenario is
First create the Production order in CO01
Create of Account assinged PO in ME21N with Account assigned category as "F" with Production order
Do the MIGO with respect to PO, then system will directly post the Stock to that Production order.
So in the system GR is done for PO & Goods issue is done for Production order.In this way you can acheive this.

Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders

Hi Friends,
We are changing Release procedure for purchase orders for one department from > $ 5000 to > $ 10000.
We defined three characteristics for the class namely Purchasing Order Document, Purchasing Order Type and Ner Order Value which is Currency data type. I Defined Release Procedure for Purchase Orders in configuration master. It's working fine, I mean the Net order Value field is updated in Configuration Client.
After transporting the above change to the Testing Client, the Net Order Value field did not update in testing Client even though I created Characteristics in Testing Client (as characters are not transportable, I created them seperately in Testing Client). I can't update the Net Order Value manually in Testing Client as it says "Client 010 (test) has status 'not modifiable' "
Please tell me how to update that field, as the net order value didn't change even after transport. I can't change manually in testing Client as the status is "not modifiable"

Hi,
Yes I have already done that.
In SPRO,
After hitting the following:-
MM --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Release Procedure for Purchase Orders --> Define Release procedre for Purchase Orders
I have to process the objects in the following sequence,
Release Group, Release Code, Release Indicator, Release Strategy & Workflow.
Upto Release Indicator it is fine. After hitting Release Strategy, I should select the release strategy (which I just created) and display. Then 4 buttons will be displayed namely,
Release Prerequisites, Release statuses, Classification, Release simulation.
Upto Release statuses it's fine. Afeter hitting Classification,
the values of Purchase document & Order type are populated, but the Total Net Order Value is Blank. It is supposed to populate the amount & 10,000. But it is not.
Actually that amount will be stored in the field GNETW of table CEKKO. But CEKKO is a Structure not a table. So I can't update the field.
Please advice me...
Thank You,

Creating workflow for purchase order release.

Hi friends
I want step by step detail about creation of workflow for purchase order release..
After release purchase order it will goes to the two level of approval..
after that the workflow should be completed...
how can i develope the workflow for that scenario..
Thanks
Gowrishankar

Hi Gowrishankar,
You can get step by step workflow for PO using standard workflow
Release of Purchase Order :WS20000075
And for two levels of approvals you have to configure in SPRO the path is
Purchase Order:
SPRO> Material Management->Purchasing->/Purchase order-->Release procedure ---> Procedure with classification ---> set up procedure with classification ---> double click on Release strategies and Workflow.
If you don't know about this configuration, you have to confirm with your MM consultant.
Thanks and Regards,
Prabhakar Dharmala

But does anyone know the steps to configure the standard workflow so that an external email is sent?

Release procedure for Purchase orders here is process flow.
Go to spro>img>materials management>purchassing>Release procedure for Purchase orders
1. Create characterstics -Intially you will create characterstics based on which you would like to release a purchase order.
Charactrestics are like plant, purchase order value,purchase group etc.. Assign characterstics to release class 032.
2. Create Release group say 01 and create release codes like pm(project manager), gm(general manager) etcc..
3. Create a Release starategy say s1 and assign release group to it 01 and release class 032 and department to whom this release stategy applies say MM. define the order of release say first pm followed by gm etc..
4. under classfication define value limits for release of purchase order.
5. define release indicators
6. simulate the release
7. assign if there is any workflow.
hope it helps.

Standard n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order in sap 4.7?

Hello friend,
In SAP 4.7 there is any standard template for n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order.
thanks in advance.

Hi AM,
there is no std template for n-step approvals but for Single Release.
What you could do is create a custom one as per the number of approvals for PO.
Also note a PO Release Strategy can handle only 8 levels of approval.
Hope it helps.

Report to view pending Purchase Order for Release

Hi,
Is there any sap standard report through which we can view pending Purchase Order for Release.
Regards,

Hi,
you can use transaction ME28, this can give information of pending purchase order for release on release level.
but this transaction is used for releasing the collective release for purchase order. this is not an report.
if you want transaction for reporting purpose only, you need to create a report or query on EKKO table. based on release indicator.

Activating conditions for Purchase Order workflows in EBP

Dear SRMer's,
I am facing the following problem:
System Info :SRM Server 5.5, ECC 6.0
Scenario 1:
All start conditions for Purchase Order in SAP Business Workflow are activated.
I created a direct procurement shopping cart (DP) in SRM browser and ordered it, then I logged in as proffessional purchaser, changed the Price and processed the DP PO.
When Ordering, the follow on Documents are created, but says the PO is waiting for approval. When I check for this PO in the Backend R/3 system in the Me22n (Display PO changes), I don't see the PO.
Scenario 2:
All Start conditions for Purchase Order in SAP Business Workflow are de-activated
I created another direct procurement shopping cart (DP2) in SRM browser and ordered it, then I logged in as proffessional purchaser, changed the Price and processed the DP2 PO (Status is held).
When Ordering, I get the Warning message, no workflow found, contact system administrator.
Please advice what needs to be configured for the PO to be ordered successfully.
Thanks in advance
Raj

Hi,
In your scenario 1, if system is saying that there the PO has to be approved, it means that you have managed the user that will receive the workitem..
Activating all PO WF is not a solution as in standard there are two many cases activated (amount, role, limit...)
I propose you to first activate only the 0 step WF and to overwrite the code inside
Just code that every PO modification should trigger O step WF thus it will be more simple to test it.
Later on, if you want to implement more complex starting conditions, you just have to modify the WF content...
Kind regards,
Yann

Thank you.

can we still move forward with deployment activity and later specify the CSI
or would that stop us suring the install process if we don't have yet the CSI ?
Are you asking from a technical or legal standpoint?
If technical, do you see anything in the installation instructions that mention entering license information? What happens if you try to go ahead and install? What could be the worst that could happen?
