Release procedure for Purchase Requsition and especially f. a document type
Dear Experts,
how can I establish a release procedure. I need to set up the procedure
without classification. But it depends on a document type.
I have been to the customizing section with spro
Materials Management/Purchasing/Purchase Requisition/Release Procedure
and have choosen "Set up Procedure without classification. ".
But can I assign a document type and how is the handling generally with.
Release Codes
Release indicator
Assign Release Indicators
Release Points: Prerequisites
Determination of Release Strategy
Thanks
Ilhan
Hi Ramesh,
You are saying:
"Click on the Release strategy button under item tabs". Where is this button.
All what I have is: Tab for "Material Data", "Quantities", "Valuation", "Account Assignment",
"Source of Supply", "Status", "Contact Person", "Texts","Delivery Adress", "Customer Data",
on calling of Tcode me54n I get immediatly a message
"Purchase Requisition 5000000131 can not be released" although I didn't enter any number in it
Why does it refer to a PR Nr. generally . I think it is pre-filled- How can I call this transaction without this message ? Or how can I call this transaction so that I can type in my own Purchase Rq-Nr.
Regards
Ilhan

Release procedure for Purchase orders
Hello SAP Gurus,
Can anyone explain in steps the release procedure for purchase orders and also can any one explain how it differs from Puchase requisition release procedure.
Thanks
NDSHi
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. -

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,

Setting up Approval Process for Purchase Requsition and PO in SAP
We are using SAP R/3 V 3.6, Doesn't have the work flow for PR or PO approval. PR is being done in SAP to process PO and approval request is being done seperatly though email system (outlook), which doesn't seem an efficient process rather it's a double work for people.....
Can anybody advise if I want to set up the approval work flow for PR & PO what needs to be done, I know this can be done as I saw it in my other work places.......but not sure what it requires to set this up, any additional module or just configaration??
Need a bit detail, how to proceed.........??
Please advise..

Error in Release procedure for PO
Hi
I have created a release procedure for Purchase groups and plants. But now I want to add a new Purchasing group to the same strategy. How to do this.Hi Garapati,
Release strategy is configuration in customisation screen. Do not merely do assignment of object via CL20N or CL24N. Though assigning the object would work, but is better to do it in customisation.
Go to this path: -
SPRO>IMG>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Order>Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order (Execute)-->Release Strategies
Go to: Position>Identify the Group> Identify the Release Strategy code
(How to know what is the release strategy code? In the PO where a release strategy for this value and characteristic is triggered, you can go to the Header-->Release Strategy tab, you would be able to see that the release strategy is triggered. Simply remember the release strategy code. If you already know the code, ignore this step)
When the search is complete and located the right release strategy that you want to amend, select it and click on Details.
Inside, go to Classification. Check that this release strategy contain the characteristic that you want to amend. You would be able to see the Characteristic "Purchasing Group" already maintained. Click on Purchasing Group line and click on "Add rows" icon below, then key in the the Purchasing Group value that you want to add.
Hit Back, and then Save this customisation.
Now, the PO release strategy will trigger the Purchasing Group you just added if the PO details entered matched the Purchasing Group, Plant and Document Type value that you maintained for this release strategy.
Hope this helps.

Release Procedure For Contract
Dear Gurus,
I have created a release procedure for Purchase Order.Now i created a Contract , it also asking for release.I dont know y its happening??
Is ter any link between Po release and Contract Release??
Plz Explain ....
Thanks in advance...........Hi,
Whatever document types you give in release procedure will undergo Approval process.
Since you have given MK & WK, your contract has been blocked for release. Unless it is released, it cannot be used for further transactions, say creation of PO.
Tcode to release contract is ME35K.
Release it using your release group & release codes, Afterwhich you will be able to create PO with contract reference.
If you donot want contract to undergo release procedure, please do not mention WK or MK in values for doc characteristics. Give the document type of PO alone. Say NB (standard PO)

Cancellation of Release Procedure for PO
Hi All,
We have configured 4 step realesed stretegy for PO. Releasing is working fine but we are facing probelm in cancellation.
In cancellation any step you can cancle at any step . But What we want if approval is done R1 >R2> R3> R4 same way cancellation would also follow R4>R3>R2>R1.
However currently system allows even R1 to allow cancel a fully released PO . When R1 cancle than all realease status R2>R3>R4 is also set to unreleased.
How to stop this and allow system to follow same hirarchy in cancellation also.

Release stratedires for Purchase Order
Hi
Dear All
I need a clarification that my needs cost centre based release strategy for Po, but t is not in Cekko table.i have to use customer exit M06E0004 or any other way to use cost centre as char in release st.
i appreciare if anybody can help/ give the suggestion in this regard
MVRAoHi,
Which Documents Can be Released (Approved)?
Release procedures can be defined for the following documents:
<b>Purchase Requisition</b></b>
The external purchasing documents purchase order (PO), contract, scheduling agreement,request for quotation (RFQ), and service entry sheet</b>
Release Procedure for Purchase Requisitions
Two different procedures are available for requisitions:
<b>With classification</b>
With this procedure, requisitions can be released both at item level (i.e. item-by-item)and in total. The latter approach is also termed overall release.
<b> Without classification</b>
With this procedure, requisitions can only be released at item level.
The two procedures are mutually exclusive (that is to say, you must decide in favor
of one of them only - you cannot use both).
Release Procedure for External Purchasing Documents
External purchasing documents (i.e. purchasing documents other than requisitions) are released at header level. Item-by-item release is not possible. These documents can only be released using the release procedure with classification.
Procedure Without Classification (Requisition Items Only)
The conditions can be based on one of the following item characteristics or a combination of
these:
<b> Account assignment category
Material group
Plant
Total value</b>
Hope this will answer your question
Thanks

Edited by: chnadu9 on Jan 5, 2011 5:48 AMHi,
The release code is a two character ID allowing a person to release (clear, or approve) a requisition or an external purchasing document. The release codes is basically controlled via a system of authorizations (authorization object M_EINK_FRG).
Use SE12, structure CEKKO to check all the fields available for controlling the Purchase Order.
An example of configuring a Purchase Order Release Strategy
If the total value for the Purchase Order exceeds 10,000, release strategy 01 is assigned to the Purchase Order. There is only one characteristic created in this example. For controlling the Purchase Order type, create characteristic for CEKKO-BSTYP and the value NB.
Steps for configuring the PO release strategy
Create the PO Characteristic
Transaction code : CT04 - Create Characteristic e.g. NETVALUE
Click Additional data tabstrips
Table name CEKKO Field name GNETW and press enter and you will see this information message :-
Format data taken from Data Dictionary (press enter)
(for currency dependent field, you are prompt to enter the currency which the system then converts the currency of the Purchasing document into this currency)
In the Basic data tabsritps (X refers to tick),
X Mutliple values
X Interval values
In the Value data, in the Char. value column, type >=10000 (equal or greater than 10000) and press enter
Save your data
Create the Class of the PO Release Strategy
Transaction code : CL02 - Class
Class - Create REL_PUR
Class type - 032
Click Create button
Description - Release Procedure for Purchase Order
In the Same Classification section, click Check with error
In the Char. (characteristic) tabstrips, type NETVALUE to assign your characteristics to the class
Save your data and this message will appear :-
Class type 032: Class REL_PUR created
Define the Release Procedure
OMGS - Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order Type
Release Group - New entries

The person with the release authorization have to use ME28 to release the Purchase Order.
