Release procedure for this concept.

Dear Seniors,
1) I had set release procedure already for contract and purchase order. Whenever i do po w.r.to contract, i have to release both contract and PO to do GRN. For example, consider vendor X and Y, i have contract for these 2 vendors and i have released that contract too. When i raise PO w.r.to that contract with vendor X and Y, it should not ask for release. How could i set that and where can i do that particularly for that two vendor X and Y? For remaining vendors, it should ask for release at PO level also. kindly suggest me please.
2) Normally if we set message determination for PO, we can see print preview before release also. I would like to see the print preview after release of that PO. Before release of that PO, it should not show me the print preview. How could i set that ? Kindly suggest me please.
3) I am having 400 plants, if i want to maintain 400 sloc for those plants correspondingly. Do i need to do that manually or is there any tcode to create sloc in mass ?
Kindly clear my doubt please.
Regards,
JanaMM

Hi,
Solution for 1)
Simple way to tackel this is to create saperate document type for PO s which are created with reference to contract
Solution for 2)
Use development by using BADI in PO.
us logic check field FRGKE(release status) in EKKO.
Solution 3)
Create BDC for the extation of storage locations.
T-code = MMSC

  • Release Procedure for Quantity Contract

    Dear All,
    We have a business requirement to ensure that Quantity Contracts are released by the Account Receivable Accountant before the Sales Support Staff can create Sales Orders against them.
    Process : Create Quantity Contract (VA41) -> Release Contract (VKM3)->Create Sales Order (VA01)
    Currently, users can create sales order against the quantity contract before the contract has been released.
    I need guidance on how to implement system control to prevent this creation of Sales Orders before Quantity Contracts are released..
    How can i configure release procedure for quantity contract?
    Any assistance will be appreciated.
    Many Thanks

    Hi
    There is a concept of User Status / Status Management in SAP. By using this you can set status as default that is Blocked, and then the authorised person can release the document, only after that a person can create an Order, with reference to that Contract.
    The Customisation setting is in :- IMG> sales and Distribution>Sales > Sales Document>Define and assign User Profile(T Code is BS02)
    To know more about this you can search the Forum, also check the below given Link:-

  • 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.

  • How to configure release procedure for rate contracts release

    Dear all,
    How to configure release procedure for rate  contract following are the requirements
    they are two release codes c1 & c2 <=100000,>=100000
                    if  c1 is not there c2 has to be approved
         Change in the value of the rate contract contract
         Change in the validity of the rate contract
         Addition of deletion of line items
    While using a non u2013 released rate contract in the PO an error message should shoot out.
    Also the logic should be changed while using the rate contract in the PO.
    The usage of the rate contract should be till the validity of the rate contract. i.e. the measurement should be end date of the rate contract and the PO creation date and not the delivery date of the PO. &
    It should be possible to refer existing valid rate contracts in purchase orders.
    Regards,
    bhaskar

    Hi,
    In SAP rate contract is known as value contract denoted with wk. The release procedure for rate contract is same as that of other contracts and scheduling agreements. The tables  for contracts will vary with SA (Scheduling agreement) .You may try and maintain condition records based on the customer combination and maintian the validity date of condition records as per your requirement.For contract and PO will have the same header/item table as EKKO/EKPO, and the release
    class in standard is the same FRG_EKKO, you can use the same for contract.
    To distinguish if it's a contract or PO, EKKO-BSART can be used.
    For contract EKKO-BSART will be MK or WK, while PO will have NB/UB etc..
    You can restrict the document type to set up the release strategy for only contract.
    Of cause, you can also create your own release class Z* for contract copying standard
    one FRG_EKKO via CL01/Class type 032, and then assign the class Z* to customizing:
    OLME:
    -> contract
    ->Release Procedure for Contracts
    ->Define Release Procedure for Contracts
    ->Release Groups
    If you have already created the PO release class.
    Assign a new chracteristic of Document Category -BSTYP
    Please check below link for detailed release procedure. I hope this wil help you out .Thanking you.

  • Release Procedure for PO in two currencies

    Hi
    I have to create PO release procedure for PO for Two Currencies based on the below characteristics
    1.Company code
    2.Document type
    3.Purchasing group
    4.Net order value in both INR and USD
    Can Any body help me
    I tried but the system is not triggering release procedure

    Hi,
    Maintain class as follows
    CEKKO_GNETW=Total net order value,Data type-CURR,Number of chars-15,Decimal places-2,Unit-INR
    If you have maintain exchange rate in PO  under delivery/Invoice tab then system will auto triggering release strategy as per maintain value in release strategy,
    Normally document currency is converted into company code currency and company code currency is converted into characteristic currency
    If your company code currency is INR , then any foreign currency PO shall be appropriately converted internally by the system(based on the currency converstion setting ) and this is applicable on which the specific release strategy will be applied.
    Please also refer SAP note 493900 for system behaviour.
    Refer Question no.13 in SAP note-493900
    How is the currency converted?
    Answer :
    The header currency is converted to local currency (company code currency) and then the local currency is converted to the characteristic currency.

  • PR release procedure for material types

    Hi all,
    I have a question, I created new release procedure for combination :
    1. NB pur.requsition, purchasing group + material type (let sey roh.. etc)
    2. YNB pur.requsition, purchasing groups + material type (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003).
    - 3 characteristcs for pur.groups, doc.type and material type.
    - 1 class
    - 2 release groups (E1 and P1)
    - For release group P1, In rel.strategy in classification I entered values for pur. requisition (NB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZUSL-001.. ect)
    - For release group E1, in rel. strategy in classification entered values
    values for pur. requisition (YNB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003)
    So, problem is that if I enter pur.requisition YNB and material type ZSTE-001, needs release; if I add item with material type ZUSL-001, there is no release.
    How can I restrict the values so that is giving error if by mistake is entered between material types ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003 material type ZUSL-001 in document type YNB, which is not allowed to be entered?
    Thanks in advance,
    Anchi

    Hello
    In PR you can set up this release strategy without classification release strategy.
    w/o classification strategy you can define the release line item wise. so you can give diiff materual group you can enter with line item wise.

    Then I run ML81N TRX and I called a sheet to try.  This sheet had to has done to one of the  release strategy set... 
    on the menu (of this trx ML81N)Entry Sheet->Set Status->Release (is still turn off)
    Where is the problem?, anybody could help me?
    Tks in advance,
    Nacho

    Hi,
    please read the FAQ note 672719, question 5:
    Setting up a release procedure is explained in the following short                         
    example: All service entry sheets with material group 007 are supposed                     
    to be subject to a release strategy. This release strategy requires that                   
    the service entry sheets must be released with release code A1. Only the                   
    cost center manager has the authorization for release code A1.                                                                               
    A) Create a characteristic for the material group:                                                                               
    o  Call Transaction CT04. (Path in the SAP menu in R/3 Enterprise:                     
           Cross-Application Components -> Classification System -> Master                     
           Data -> Characteristics)                                                                               
    o  Specify a name for the characteristic, for example CESSR_MATKL,                     
           and choose the 'Create' pushbutton.                                                                               
    o  On the 'Basic data' tab page, enter a description and keep the                      
           'Released' status.                                                                               
    o  On the 'Addnl data' tab page, enter table name CESSR and field                      
           name MATKL (Material group).                                                                               
    o  Enter class type 032 (Release strategy) on the 'Restrictions' tab                   
           page and then save the characteristic.                                                                               
    Note: The release strategy must be based on a field of structure CESSR.                    
    Using Transaction SE11, you can display which other fields are available                   
    in addition to the material group (field MATKL).                                           
    B) Create a class to which you assign the characteristic:                                                                               
    o  Call Transaction CL02. (Path in the SAP menu in R/3 Enterprise:                                 
           Cross-Application Components -> Classification System -> Master                                 
           Data -> Classes)                                                                               
    o  Enter a class name, for example FRG_ESSR, and class type 032 (for                               
           release strategy) and then choose the 'Create' pushbutton.                                                                               
    o  On the 'Basic data' tab page, enter any name. (Keep the                                         
           'Released' status.)                                                                               
    o  Enter characteristic CESSR_MATKL on the 'Char.' tab page and then                               
           save the class.                                                                               
    C) Now carry out the required Customizing settings. Follow IMG path                     
    (Transaction SPRO) 'Materials Management -> External Services Management                                                                               
    Seite 4                                                                               
    -> Define Release Procedures for Service Entry Sheet'                                                                               
    o  At first, you must create a release group (for example 03). For                  
           that, choose 'Release Groups', then choose 'New Entries', enter                  
           'Rel. Group' = 03 and 'Class' = FRG_ESSR. Save the entry. The                    
           system automatically determines value 3 (for entry of services                   
           performed) for the release object.                                                                               
    o  Now create release code A1 for release group 03. Choose 'New                     
           Entries' and specify the following values: Grp = 03, Code = A1,                  
           and description, for example cost center manager.                                                                               
    o  Create two release indicators, for example A and B. Select the                   
           'Released' field for release indicator B and save the entries.                   
           (Note: A release strategy must at least contain two release                      
           indicators. The first indicator (here A) must be defined as                      
           locked, the last indicator as released. Furthermore, the general                 
           changeability of the service entry sheet and the behavior for                    
           value changes are defined via the release indicators.)                                                                               
    o  Finally create the release strategy. Choose 'New Entries' and                    
           specify the following values: Release group = 03, release                        
           strategy, for example RS, release codes = A1. Assign the two                     
           release indicators A and B via 'Release statuses'. Assign                        
           material group 007 via 'Classification'. Save the release                        
           strategy.                                                                               
    D) Assign the authorization for release code A1 and release group 03 to                     
    the cost center manager. In role maintenance (Transaction PFCG), you can                    
    for example use the default values for Transaction ML85 for that.

  • With classification release procedure for PO

    Dear Experts ,
    here one issue is with classification release procedure for PO
    when I create characteristics
    in Additional data
    table name :-- Cekko field name  :-- match code
    enter
    click all sec charars then which block I select to go next screen
    and fill name is right or ?
    please help me

    hi,
    in additional data field you have to give the field name of characteristic you are maintaining. like if you want to maintain characteristic as document type of the PO then we have to give the field name for document type mentioned in table CEKKO i.e. BSART.
    then you have to do the value assignment. here you have to tick the check box for "NOT READY FOR INPUT".
