Release indicator in release strategy

Hye,
I need to  change release indicator in release strategies. can anyone let me know how to do the same
I have done this in confi -> sap - >mm -> purchasing - >PO - >release strategy and i changed indicator as x to y in release strategy, but i have nearly 500
Is there any other way where i can change directly
Thx

HI Raj,
This could be done using a BDC program. Else you can go for any testing tool or SCAT for solving ur purpose.
My understanding is...u r not going to create 500 new release indicators. U r going to change rel indicators in *relase statuses*
Cheers
Arun.

  • How can Change PO Release Indicator to Released Status

    Hi Gurus,
    We are having an issue here, which user accidentally re-triggered customized program to re-trigger the release strategy of old PO documents.
    This program basically reset the PO release startegy status and update the PO with the latest PO release strategy configuration. It's using FM ME_REL_STRATEGIE_EKKO.
    So, currently some of the old PO which previously been fully released and closed PO (with GR & IR completed). So, we dont think that it's right for these old PO to be approved again, also the relevant approvers also refused to do so.
    Is there any way that we can use the same FM to change the release indicator to R from S? Appreciate your help. Thanks!
    Regards,
    Michelle

    may i suggest you accidently trigger the program to close the release strategy for all POs by modify class characteristics.
    and then reopen the  release strategy for necessary POs.
    or maybe, you can trigger the program to close the release strategy for old POs.
    please see below for details:

  • Release Indicator for Purchase Order

    Dear All,
    While we set release indicator for release of ourchase order, we select changeble ststus of Purchase Order during release.
    As per standard if we set 1 - Not changable and after creation of Purchase Order release indicator set as "Blocked" which is having changable status as "1-Not Changable", then also system allow to change Purchase Order.
    Can anybodu suggest solution.

    Hi,
    I think You are mistaken by terms itself.
    well, whn u refer to CHANGEBILITY Indicator , it is only concerned to RELEASE STRATEGY ( applicable to that PO ) which may or may NOT change automatically based on characteristic value changes in PO.
    But this changebility indicator doesn't refer to PO Change control.
    Pl don't get confused regarding control excercised by this changebility indicator.

  • New release strategy should not trgger for PO released with old Rel Strategy

    Hi All,
    Please suggest. Po has been fully released with Release Strtgy V1 XX. Now I m replacing release strategy  XX with ZZ. If I change any po which has old rel str XX , system will reset new release strategy as in config changeability indicator 4 maintained.
    But requirement is if there is  any change or value decreasing in fully released Pos with old strategy  it should not retrigger new release strategy. If value Increases then New strategy should retrigger.
    Please help me on this.
    regards,
    Rohit

    HI Rohit
    A reset of the release strategy only takes place if
           -  the changeability of the release indicator is set to '4' in
              case of a purchase requisition and '4' or '6' in case of
              another purchasing document (purchase order, request for
              quotation, contract, scheduling agreement),
           -  the document is still subject to the previous release
              strategy,
           -  the new TOTAL NET ORDER VALUE is higher than the old one.
    The most important thing to consider in to avoid changes to release strategy customizing once the release strategy is used.
    The commom steps are:
    1- make sure all of the old POs should have been released.
    2- don't delete/change the original release strategy. create a new release strategy with copy function, then the old release strategy will not be replaced.
    3- if you delete the original release strategy and add a new release strategy which the characteristics in classification is same as old release strategy then the PO (have been approved) will be replaced with the new release strategy.

  • PO release indicator = Changeability

    Dear all,
    I would like to know what's difference between Changeability 3 & 6 in PO relase indicator.
    Desc for each changeability are:
    3 - Changeable, new release in case of new strategy
    6 - Changeable, new rel. if new strat. or value change/outputted
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    The changeable Indicator 1 to 4 are meant for Pr release & 1-6 for Po release . Along with this indicator if you assign a percentage of value change in the adjacent colomn it will be effective in line with the release Indicator or status of the PO.With Changeability Indicator how changes to a purchase order/requisition will effect the release strategy ,ie whether the documents old strategy will remain or a new strategy will be derived  and release procedure is restarted.
    If the changeability indicator 3   is put in line with any release Indicator and any % is set in the value change colomn , it will imply that beyond that value change if the Po is changed the stratgey will change and a new strategy will be derived .
    If the changeability indicator 6   is put in line with any release Indicator and any % is set in the value change colomn , it will imply that beyond that value change or the Po is outputted/Printed out if the Po is changed the stratgey will change and a new strategy will be derived. Generally indicator  6 is set in line with the Final release Indicator ID.

  • 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

  • Release Indicator error in the Log

    Hi,
    I'm in Workflow, while building the purchase req release workflow, the Released event is not triggered. I went into the SPRO and checked the release strategy, and read the following error msg in the log,
    Define a release indicator for the status "released"
    But under 'Setup procedure with classification', in Release Indicator, we've already assigned '2' to status 'PR Released', and in Release strategy, assigned the release status to all strategies in use.
    Any ideas why the error msg is still there?
    Many thanks,
    Kathryn

    Thanks Steve,
    I do have faith in error messages and find it hard to understand why, given I'm not specialized in the MM field.
    This is where I check,
    in SPRO -> Purchase req -> Release procedure -> Procedure with Classification -> Setup Procedure with Classification -> Release Indicator
    In our case, we have 3 indicators defined,
    B - PR Blocked
    S - PR Status (pre-released, ready for final release)
    2 - PR Released
    In '2', it is ticked at 'Released for issue of PO'.
    Where else should I look for the flags?
    thanks,
    Kathryn

  • Release tab at release PO indicator

    Hi Guys,
    I'm wondering what is the purpose of release tab (tick / untick) at release PO indicator?
    Thx in advance

    Hi,
    The release tab in purchasing documents shows if the document is subject to release strategy and needs to be approved before any follow on documents can be created (PO, goods receipt, invoice).  So it may be the case where ther is a 3 level hierarchy for the pucase document to be released. so for example manager 1, manager 2, manager 3.  If there is a green tick set for these release codes then the document has been approved by manager 1, manager 2 ,manager 3.
    All release strategy setup is set in customising.  The release indicator can be set in customising for the release code. So for example in this case you can set it that until all the managers approve the document the document is blocked for further processing. When released by all release codes (manager 1, manager 2, manager 3) then the document can be set for release and follow on documents can be created.
    Kind regards,
    Lorraine

  • Requirement in Release indicator

    Hi Team,
    one of my user requirement is like to add a % in value change % column in Release indicator,also they have changable column as 6 ,for example their requirement is
    Category     Threshold £           % change allowed before system release - reset     Maximum amendment value allowed
    A1     0 to 25K            25%                                                                                £6250
    A2     0 to 250K           10%                                                                                £25K
    A3     250 to 500K            5%                                                                                £25K
    A4     500K to 1000K    2.5%                                                                                £25K
    A5     > £1000K             0%                                                                                0%
    Also for Category A5 does not have an upper limit so if we applied a value change as a percentage we would have no control over the maximum amendment amount without triggering the order to be re-released.  so they would like to add a value change as a u2018valueu2019 not as a percentage.  A maximum amendment value of £25K would be appropriate
    is it possible to have a mixture of value or percentages allowed, could we use values in all Categories?
    Kindly help me to meet the requirements.
    Thanks

  • Release group in release strategy

    HI gurus,
    Can anyone tell the significance of release group in release strategy for purchase order with example.One use of it as i know is where a single person is responsible for multiple plants and in each plant he has different prerequisities.Please correct me if it is wrong.
    Regards,
    Sharma

    Hi Rahul,
    The Importance of Release group is it links the Classification functionality to the release procedure, So the characteristics which is included in the classes will appear in the release procedure if you mentioned the Class in the release group.
    It also includes the release object which identifies which Purchasing document is active for Release group like 1 for PR , 2 for others.
