HI Singh
Release orders are POs created refering a Contract. Whenever you have a requirment for material or service you release a PO for the same, when you refer a contract then its a " release order",
For scheduling agreements you can use Delivery schedules , but not release orders. The main difference between Contract and SA is that Contract involves Generation & Maintainance of Huge voulme of documents, while for SA there is only one further document apart from SA,. this is delivery schedule. When you release a schedule refering a SA no new document will be created but the Schedule will be continully extended as new requirment.
Cheers!

Userexit for not allowing release order qnty greater than contr targt qnty
hi,
I posted the same mail before, but it seems we cannot do it in configuration..plz provide me a suitable User exit for the same..
When i am creating a release order for a quantity contract, the system is allowing to save the doc if at all the quantity is more than in the contract, i.e. if the user changes the quantity in release order more than the contract quantity, the system is issuing a warning message and allowing to save.(mess no V1 501)
I want to change this warning to an error message..
I checked in OVAH but only V4 messages are available there..
In SE91 i am able to see the message but there is no way for any change..

Create PO(release order) from contract
Hi,
I have created a contract using me31k with one item,then I creted a relese order PO with same item.when I enter another item in my relase order PO which is not there in the my contract,here system allow me to add item and save without any problem.Why system does not stop this? If it is standard behaviour,then how to prevent ?.
For this issue,can some body throw some light on this issue,please?
With Regards,
JaheerHi,
The release order means the PO item created with reference to the contract item. There can be multiple items in the PO in which some items can be with reference to contract - these items eventually becomes the release orders and other items can be without reference to contract.
In short, you can add multiple items in PO where some items can be with reference to contract item and some are not. This is standard behavior.

Absolute condition value in contract and release order
Hi,
We are creating quantity contract. When a absolute condition (value) is entered this value is considered for release qty in the contract for calculating the unit price.But when a release order is created for this contract, the same absolute value is for the PO quantity due to which there is a difference in unit price between contract and PO.
Please advice.

Contract value exceeding in Release order
Hi All,
The target value of the value contract is 200,000 INR. After reaching to the 190,000 INR ( Making different Release order ) the user has made one more purchase order for this value contract with the value 50,000. The system hasnt given any warning /error message that the contract value exceeding...
In general system should have to give the error message that the contract value is exceeding???
The message 06-042 & 06-155 set as error message.
also if your trying to make release order of more than 200,000 INR then it is giving error message 06-42 the value is exceeding
Please suggest
Thanks & Regards
RajeshPlease check your release order qty set in contract item / header details

Release orders for value contract
Hi Folks,
I have question on value contract.
Customer contract is fullfilled by issuing orders against the contract. When a release order is created for the contract, the system automatically updates the released values in the contract. The release order value is calculated from the total of the open order and delivery values, plus the value that has already been billed to the value contract. System checks this value with "Outline agreement target value" in value contract and issues warning or error message depends on configuration settings in value contract item catagory.
We have business scenario where system has to check net value of value contract rather than checking "Outline agrrement target value" in value contract. Because we offer some discounts to customer in value contract thus net value of the contract differs from agreement value. So that system will issue error message when release order value exceeds net value of value contract.
Is there any customizing settings available to meet the requirement?
Awaiting for your inputs.
Regards,
PrabhaharanHi,
In transcation VTAA at item level have your own cory requirment code which will calcullate net value of the doc, hope this works out

Differences between Contract Cumulative Value an Release Orderes Value
Hi All
I have found differences in: EKPO (PO Items) and EKAB (Release Orders) tables vs. Cumulative Target Contract value.
The total amount in EKPO net values is grather than Cumulative Target Value in Contract, in EKAB net values as well.
Do you know the considerations that the system are taking?....because the Cumulative value must not be exceeded
Thanks for your tiime.
Regards
MauricioI have found the issue, the delivery complete indicator restore the Cumulative Amount in Value Contracts (Quantity = 0). After that, a new PO could be created with Agreement link limited for the amount restored.
So the all PO generated related with the contract could exceed the Cumulative Amount established in contract
Thatu2019s a problem because All PO could be received even though the delivery complete was activated
This behavior is only for Value Contracts

Open Order quantity in Release order of Contracts
Hi all,
We are developing new PO format for Release Order ( Contract) where in we want to print the Open order quantity & Open order value along with Contract number.
What is the best logic for Open order quantity, where in it has consider all the previous release order quantities minus the target quantity in contract.
Open order quantity = target quantity in contract - all previously release order quantities.
Thanks in advance.
MM
MMhai sajid,
As u said,
open order quantity = total quantity in contract - total quantity released against that contract ( Through release orders )
it is right,

Release Orders Blocked for Delivery
Hello Experts!!
We have V.23, release orders blocked for billing.. is there a similar transaction where we can release orders blocked for delivery??
Help is greatly appreciated.Hello Carla,
Yes in the T-code "V.23", you can release the billing block for SALES ORDER in one single click. While releasing the delivery block for the Sales order the following T-code are useful:
1. VDBLOCK
2. V.14
3. VA14L
When you are using these T-codes, you get the list of all the Sales order which are blocked for Delivery. Then you can select the document for which you want to remove the delivery block and do the required updation.

Creation of release order possible during release strategy
Hi folks,
we have currently contract and purchase order release strategy parallel in place. Both are working fine.
We are using quantity and value contracts.
Quantity contracts are changed frequentely by the business; with every change (adding new items, changing prices of existing items), the release strategy is pulled again.
Our release indicator is set to 6 and has value change 0,00%.
The business requirement is now to release a contract with status X (e.g. 10 items and a total item value of 10.000EUR). After release, call offs can be created for all the released line items.
If a new line item 11 is added, it should still be possible to create call offs for item 1-10 but not for item 11.
Item 11 should undergo a new release.
Has anyone ever come across such requirement?
I have tried version management. However, version management will only force a new release whenever the version is completed.
Even then, the complete contract is subject to release strategy and it is not possible to create call offs.
We dont want to set error message ME347 "Release orders against contract xxxx not possible (contract not released)" to warning, as this will allow to always create call offs regardless of the contract being released or not.
Any ideas greately appreciated.
Thanks!!I suppose program checks in EKKO whether contract is released,, irrespective of version exist it or not. IF you are able to direct it to EREV, then may be version 0 or ( current - 1 ) released can be returned.
Isn't it a special case that your version 0 data is intact in version 1; Even if someone change lines 1 to 10 , with or without adding line 11, it still triggers version 1. How do you ensure that lines up to 10 are not changed. you may have to look in CDPOS CDHDR with object Revision..
This is just an idea which you may discuss with your developer to see whether a copy of the program can be modified.. -
Contract and release order for service: connection and field selection
Hi Experts,
I have some questions about contract and release order (PO against contarct) for services.
A -I want ot know if there is any standar way to oblige the creation of a release order to a contract. I mean i had some users that create a release order w/o reference to the contract and it works fine anyway. The document is a copy of the NB. I cant find the way to reference the 2 purchase document clearly.
B - Using a release order, when copying the item from contract catalogue by clicking the service selection icon, description and net price are correctly copied: the description is not modifiable but the net price can be change by the user. Can some body explain me where to modify this setting? where is the field selection and where in SPRO step by step please,
thanks in advance
Livio... Nobody is so nice to suggest me any solution?
For the point A probably the only way is user-exit.... but for B i don't have any idea, please let me know
thanks

Vendor block code for release order creation but no purchase order creation
The client has a vendor block code which when applied to a vendor through vendor block screen should allow release order creations against existing contracts and ARC but it should not allow purchase order creation. However, it is allowing purchase order creation also. Can anyone tell how to achieve this selective treatment that allows RO creation against existing contracts and ARCs' but no PO creation.
Are there any settings or configurations that have to be made in SPRO and other areas to achieve this.I would appreiate if anyone could give in a detailed and step wise solution.Hi
Take out all the blocks on company code and purchasing organization in XK05.
Only put block function as 01 (purchase order). It will not allow you to create purchase order but you can create contracts and release orders against contracts.
Thanks

Purchase and release order not allowed for TECO work orders
Hi
We are typically setting maintenance work orders to TECO once the physical work as been performed as that sets the reference date for showing the history of when the maintenance was performed, and when the maintenance call was completed. However, we have invoices that may come in significantly later than when the physical work was performed.
Once the order is in TECO a purchase or release order (for services against a contract) cannot be created for the work order. Additionally it appears that even if we have a release order,or purchase order, if it is not for the exact amount of the invoice the release or purchase order cannot be ammended - we get the sameerror mssage (BS007) as when creating a new purchase order for the TECO order.
I had wondered about using BS22 to change TECO to continue to allow purchase and release orders when the order is in TECO status.
Any input on pros/cons or other approachs appreciated.
PhilipThanks
That was what I initially thought. However I was informed that if the invoice is not for the originally determined amount that to post the invoice means having to change the PO, and changing the PO appears to hit the same business transaction as creating a PO, and so we get the error mssage.
The issue is that we may know we need to have services estimated at, say, $5.000. But we do not know what the actual final invoice will be. So the actual amount may end up being $4,500 or $5,500 as an example, and it may come ni late from the vendor. The Purchse Order side is not my expertize, but I am being informed that the invoice must match the PO amount, otherwise the PO must be ammended to match. As the order is in TECO, the user cannot amend the PO.
I would be happy to know of other options, or at least good questions to ask. I want the end user to be able to post the invoice against the PO, after the order is in TECO, even it the invoice amount is not exactly the same as what was originally anticipated.
regards

Release order with reference to Contract.
Hello all
Client is using the quantity contract & against that Release order are created ,after changing the contract price, new release order will pick up new price from contract,
Now the requirement is Old release order(GRN & INVOICE NOT DONE) price should get change as per new contract price. how this will be achieve ( Configuration or z Development)
Kindly suggest (SAP version is 4.7)
Also what is Automatic Document adjustment & how it works? whether above scenario is possible with automatic document adjustment.
Thanks & Regards
RajeshHi
Price always come from Purchasing inforecord to the contract release order not from the contract.
If the contract price is updated thru info update indicator in contract then you will get the latest price from inforecord to contract release order.
For your old release order if you want to adopt the latest price based on the date then change the price date category as 5-GR date in Purchasing inforecord as well as Contract. If the field is open in PO then you change there also.
Now if you do the GR the price will be picked based on the GR date from the Purchasing inforecrd condition
Hope it helps
Thanks/Karthik
