Purchase Doc. Release Procedure - Reg.

Dear Experts
In my release procedure, i need to include one status say C-Need to be clarified. Means, approver should have the option of selecting C as code, in case he needs to get some clarification from purchasing doc. creator.
Also, this C is nothing but just status is hold(Neither blocked nor rejected). How to attain this?
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar

Hi,
Along with the store head and plant head, you shd create one more code for the person who create this PO..
And make him the first approver, let it be A...then only after the approval of A, it shd go to B ie. store head and after his approcal it will atlast move to C...
Now in your case, suppose C rejects the doc. then Document will again go A for the release(n will not be released untill again full above process is done)...
For this you make the entries at the release strategy as below...
A - X
B - X X(Shd be first approved by A)
C - X X X (shd be approved by A and B)
SPRO >> MM >> Purchasing >> PO >> Release strategy >> Rel. strat. w/o classification >> maintain release strategy..

Reg.Release procedure

Dear Friends
One purchase order has to release by Internal auditor and then Purchase manager,i.e One PO is release by two persons from higher level to lower level after that only it is get released. how to configure this scenario. please help me.
Thanks
Rajakumar.k

Hi,
System should be designed to release the purchasing document from lower level to higher level not from higher level to lower level,if so no mean of approval process!
You can have release characteristics and release class, release group, the required release codes, Release indicator and add release codes to release strategy and arrange the release sequence of release from LOWER level to HIGHER level & check classification data( add characteristics value here) & finally simulate the release.

Lock and release procedure of sales order - Based on Value

Hello Gurus,
I am having the following requirement in SD, let me explain with one example.
If users creating Sales orders with value less than Rs.1000/- means, System should not allow to proceed further to save the
sales orders (need the same to specific Sales areas).
I tried with condition type "AMIW" / User exits where we can able to block/lock the further process but in general we may need to proceed further even if its below the value(Rs.1000/) considering the genuine and regular order from customer.
Pls suggest your ideas to achieve the Lock and release procedure based on Sales Order Value.

Thread Locked - Reason Duplicate Post

Hi,
Instead to going for user exits, you can control this by
1. Field VBAK-NETWR (Net Value) as a part of incompletion procedure.
2. In VUA2 check u201CIC boxu201D
3. Create a Customer discount condition ZDIS with scales. In V/06 maintain scale basis as B=value, Check value B= Ascending and Scale type as B= to scale. Calculate it on the Price condition
4 .In VK11 Maintain record as -100% up to say Value INR1000/-
You can fine tune according to your requirement by adding tables with relevant fields.
The idea is simple. As long as the PR00 condition value is below INR1000/- discount condition type ZDIS will calculate discount as 100% and Document net value will become Zero.
If the document value is Zero Incompletion log will not allow saving the document.
You can maintain records for ZDIS as per your requirement (for genuine customers). Or you can close the condition record by changing the validity when it is not necessary for other customers.
Hope this helps.

Use of Release Procedure / status in Condition Table

What is the purpose of Release Procedure / Release status when creating condition tables ?

Hi
Release procedures are used in condition tables to control whether the condition types for these condition tables have to be read during pricing condition determination or not.
If the condition table status is released then only the condition types will be read during pricing determination. If the status is not released, then they can be used for information purposes or for simulation of pricing.
The release status is controlled by processing status too, which can be seen in condition record creation screen.
So in crux, the processing status with Release status help in simulation of pricing, blockign the condition records from being read during pricing etc.
For more information an F1 help on the following path will give you some more information.
SPROSD-BF-PRICING-DEFINE PROCESSING STATUS----Here read the documentation meant for this link. You will get some more clarity on this.

PR release procedure no longer working-error MEPO 822

I've raised a message previously regarding PR release problem. Now i've found something that need expert helps to clarify on this.
Situation :
One of my client(ABC) implemented release procedure for PR which is not assign to value limit. It is by document type. They had 2 document types; NB and RNB.
NB = NOT subject to release
RNB = SUBJECT to release.
So when they :
create a PR with document type RNB - it will goes for approval.
create a PR with document type NB - it will not go to approval.
It was working fine until after they created a new document type which copied from NB, called ZTP.
ZTP = NOT subject to release.
They did not touch anything on PR release configuration. However, the release has no longer working. Means, when they create PR with document type RNB, it will NOT go for approval as it suppose to. I've check in configuration, all are fine.
Findings:
I've created a PR, and go to ME45N to release it but system prompt me an error message
"Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released". I check on the message data, the error coming from MEPO, message number 822.
So i check in OSS and found a note which is similar to this case.
Note 939371 - Overall release PR using ME54N gives error MEPO 822
Link : https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=939371#Text
But my question is,is it also applied to ME51N and without external application as per my client's case?
Please anyone help.
Thanks.

Hi guys!
Wants to share something. I had a problem to release my PR. When i want to release PR via ME54N, system give me error message "Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released". When i checked message data, it is coming from MEPO Messafe 822. So i asked SAP, they said this one is caused by different issue. Here's the reply from SAP.
Here's the reply from SAP :
Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released
Message no. MEPO822
Now click the other requisition button and let say
choose Purchase requisition 10000068,
Execute ME54N again:
Purchase requisition 10000068 cannot be released
Message no. MEPO822
Comment/explanation:
The log incidence seems not having problem with release
strategy as it was ok but it was the last PR was called
everytime ME54N was called. This same as it works in enjoy
transaction ME21N/ME22N or ME51N/ME52N.
For example, When using ME21n or ME22n to create or change PO,
after saving the PO. There are 2 ways to exit the transaction,
1, enter another T-code or use /n to exit directly.
2, use 'F3' or the 'green tick' to exit ME21n (or ME22n)
Then you can access ME23n to see the difference.
For the 1st way, ME23n won't display the last PO created in ME21n
For the 2nd way, ME23n will display the last PO just created!!!
Please see attached consulting note 595627 that explains a new
functionality as of release 470:
Due to performance problem, a decision had to be taken about the way to
use transactions. If you leave transaction ME21N/ME22N via the
exit button (F3), the expected PO will be displayed next time you use
these transactions. But if you quit abruptly (/nXXX) the PO number
won't be saved for the next transaction ME2?N.
As SAP note is the official document to explain system behavior,
this document is provided by SAP developement to explain this system
behavior to customers.
In your case, you had used ME54N and this was same as you use ME53N.
The last PO always display. You may try to view Purchase requisition
with release strategy, for example Release group R1, Rel. strategy
R1, then after this execute transaction ME54N again, the message
MEPO822 will not be there anymore.
Hope this will help you guys if you're having the same problem in future.
Thanks,
Crystal.

Creating a new "Class type" in release procedure.

Hi guys,
how can I create a new <b>"Class type"</b> in release procedure?

Hi,
But I do not know why anyone would create a new batch type for release strategies, it is totally unnecessary and provides no additional options. The class type indicates which objects can be classified and there is already one for release strategies.
You can create a new class or add characteristics to the existing class used in the release strategy anyway.
Ther is also NO WAY that two classes can be used in the release strategy and this new class type would not change this either???

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.
Rgds.

Service Entry Sheet Release Procedure

Dear all,
I want to assign a new Plant to an existing service entry release strategy. In CL20N for Class Type 032 and maintaining the Release Group and Release Strategy I want, I hit ENTER and the Class SERVICE_RELEASE is displayed, which is correct (it is a service entry release procedure).
Selecting the item and displaying the values for the Class, I have Plant, Order Type and Cost Centre. I added a new row, include a new Plant and hit Save. I get the message "Saving changes to assignments" and then I exit the screen.
However, to double check that the object has been assigned to the class, I check in SPRO>Materials Mgt>External Services Mgt>Define Rel. Procedure for Service Entry Sheet> Release Strategies to confirm that the object was created in the classification for service entry release procedure. BUT IS NOT THERE!
However, if I performed the assignment in Classification in SPRO for the release strategy, and check in CL20N, IT IS THERE!!
How come I have created in CL20N and it is not displayed in SPRO for the same release strategy? The object assignment was successful with no error msg. It is not possible that you have done it in CL20N and you have to do the same in SPRO, right? Doesn't serve the purpose..
Pls help.
Thank you.

Dear Sir,
Go to CL02 give the Class and Class type, click on change icon
Copy the characteristic of Plant from Char. Tab
Then Go to CT04
give characteristic which is copied from class and click on change icon.
enter your new plant in Values tab, Save back
Go to CL20N, give release group and release code for which you want to maintain the new plant.
give the plant and save enter.
i hope this will help you.

PR release procedure problem

We are using SAP 4.7 EE Version.
Regarding PR release procedure, I have created PR release procedure by using characteristics with Plant, Total value of the item, document type, creation indicator and account assignment category.
Created class PR_RELEASE with above-mentioned characteristics. The same is used in PR release procedure.
When I am creating PR, the release procedure not picking up for standard procurement (stock material) account assignment category.
We have identified the problem with account assignment category u2018 u2018 (Standard) while creating PR. For other account assignment categories (K, U, X, A), it is working fine.
Recommend any SAP note numbers if you have or known.
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks,
SK

Hi
Blank Account assignment does not work, as you cannot create a chracteristic Value as Blank.
You need to create a new release strategy without the account assignment category chracter.
Or remove the account assignment Chracterisitc from the release strategy

Hi,
Try to delete all the release procedure available in the system.
First try to do the documents coorectly and configure.
You might have done mistake in assigning the charcteristics to the class
Please try create a NEw release procedure once again.
Don't worry about the procedure in the RFQetc...

Release procedure problem

Hi Gurus,
          I created a release procedure for PO. i created a single chs based on total amount of PO and assigned it to a single class. then configured it for 5 release codes. all the simulation is working fine.
          But when I created the PO worth of 6 laks, which is above the level of last release code >=5 laks. when i go for release in ME29N or ME28 its giving an information message saying "document is not applicable for release procedure. in ME28 i am getting "message no documents found" for my release code and release group combination.
          Where should i have gone wrong. give me some suggestions.
Thanks & Regards,
Poorna.

Hi,
Your Maximum amount of PO which is applicable for release strategy is 5 Lakhs for your last release code.
Now if you create the PO for 6 lakhs then how the system will consider the release strategy.
Thats why you will not find the same in ME29N or ME28 to release the PO.
So you need to change your Characteristics value for last release code from = 5 lakhs to >= 5lakhs.
then system will consider the release str for any value above 5 lakhs for that last release code,
