You have already been told that this field is for information only, and that SAP's own use of the field is inconsistent. So it is not possible (in my opinion) to say how you should interpret the different values. I can tell you what I think:
<b>Obsolete</b> should mean the workflow is no longer in use (no new workflow instances will be started) - possibly because it has been replaced by a new workflow template.
<b>Released</b> should mean the workflow has been tested and accepted, and has now been released for use in a productive environment.
<b>Implemented</b> should mean the workflow has been developed and is being tested.
<b>Modeled</b> is a status I am more uncertain about. Possibly used to indicate that the steps have been defined, but the development (e.g. of BOR/Class methods) has not been completed.
<b>Not defined</b> seems quite pointless to me. One question is whether it refers to the release status itself (i.e. no release status has been defined) or to the workflow (i.e. the workflow has not been defined (yet)).
In summary: don't worry too much about the release status of workflows. I would recommend setting it to "Released" when a workflow is ready for production, and that's the only important status. Well ... almost the only one. "Obsolete" is equally important.

Include the Content Released status flag in default WC data control
Hi,
We have integrated custom webcenter portal application with UCM for documents integration. The integration was done using default data control.When we change the document which is getting displayed in the portal from UCM and check it into the system, wokflow gets triggered properly and the content status shows review status. But when we access the document in the portal, at that point of time new document is visible even though the content is still not released from the system.
Can anyone of you let me know how to include the released status of the content in the default data control so that we can avoid this situation
Regards,
BoopathyFirst of all, I think this is more a question to WebCenter Portal, because it is how WebCenter Portal components are written.
Another thing is, that this is probably 'works as designed' and there might be good reasons for that. Since PS3, WebCenter (Portal) exposes some of UCM's functionality, among them ability to approve items in a workflow. This is the reason why it makes a good sense that items are available. Of course, they should be available only to approvers; also unapproved items should not appear if an item is displayed via Content Presenter (compare to a document published on a website via WCM). If you found such a behaviour, please, report it to MetaLink as it might be a bug. -

PO release status is not updated.
Dear Expert,
Configuration of PO Release Strategy:
Release Indicator B & R.
Indicator B : Changble field is 4
Indicator R : Changble field is 1 ( Cann't be changed)
Note : For PR , Business case is same , Upon final release users are not allowed to change the PR & PO.
Transaction:
1. PR Creation & Release --- Working fine.
1. PO w.r.t PR Creation & Release --- PO release ( ME29N)status is getting changed from B to R, But release status of PO getting reset from R to B when I am trying to View/Change/cancel Release ME23N/ME22N/ME29N.
When I am using the above said T-Code, there I am seeing that PO is un-release, Though I ahve released the PO.
I am not able to understand why system is behaviing such way.
Help me out to resolve this issue.
Rgds,
ManojHi,
Keep Changeability Indicator BLANK in Indicator B & for Indicator R , you can keep Changeability Indicator 1 ( Cann't be changed) as your business required in configuration of PO Release Strategy:
For Example:
Release Indicator B & R.
Release ID..........Released.........Changeability Indicator.........Description
Indicator B ........{ }..........................{ }......................................Blocked
Indicator R ........................................................................Released
Now try creating PO & then release, sure it will work.

How to get informed when PO / Contract changed to ordered / released status
Hi,
I am working on a program which sends SRM PO and Contract data to a non-SAP system, one of the requirements is to send SRM data immediately after PO / Contract's status changed to Ordered / Released ( workflow is used here ).
I tried to used BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, but noticed throuhg debugger that the last time this BADI get called, I still didn't see Ordered / Released status in the Status table.
Is any way to know status change for PO / Contract ?
Thanks a lot,
Wayne LiuHello Wayne,
Solution 1:
You can use the SRM Alert Mangament to know when a contract was released, specifically the following events RELEASED_AGAIN
RELEASED_NEWLY.
Check IMG Cross-Application Basic Settings-> Event and Event Schema for Alert Management
For PO I could not find a similar event, but there is a APPROVAL_PROCESS_DOC_APPROVED event which can be used if the PO was approved after ordering.
In any case you can create your own events and event handlers using the SRM Alert Management BAdi BBP_ALERTING.
Solution 2: Only for Contracts
You can use the existing Distribution mechanism to distribute contracts to Non-SAP systems.
Distribution of contracts is triggered whenever significant changes are done to the Contract (like Release, Lock, Unlock).
Implement function module NOR3_CTR_TRANSFER for this purpose.

ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST method PROCESS_HEADER to reset release status of doc
Hi Everyone,
I have read lots of threads regarding the implementation of BAdI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. However, I could not find one which fits our requirement which is the resetting/ restart of the release status of a PO whenever a released/approved PO has been changed not only in the quantity field but also in the other details of the document.
I believe that the method to be used in this sense is the PROCESS_HEADER. Would you know any logic which could help me restart an already released PO document whenever any changes have been made to the document?
Kindly send your recommendations.
Thanks and regards,
ReymarHi,
I used this code:
CALL METHOD im_header->get_data
RECEIVING
re_data = lmpoheader.
IF lmpoheader-frgke = 1 AND
lmpoheader-frgzu IS NOT INITIAL.
lmpoheader-frgke = 2.
lmpoheader-frgzu = ''.
CALL METHOD im_header->set_data
EXPORTING
im_data = lmpoheader.
ENDIF.
After saving the PO document, the fields FRGKE and FRGZU were not changed. When I debugged the code, the values of the fields were changed. I just don't know if the last CALL METHOD has been properly executed so that IM_DATA may contain the changed values.
Thank you and regards,

Settlement of WBS with Partially Released status
Hi colleagues,
We are encountering problems during our settlement to AUC. Although the settlement rule is maintained, the system does not allow us to post the settlement to a WBS with "PREL" (partially released) status. Is this really the standard of the system? When can we release the WBS?
Thank you.Ask your FICO consultants to create a separate Asset class for AUCs.
They can maintain such class in OAOA, where ask them to maintain status of Auc as Investment Measure.
Now you can use this class in OITA - Investment Profile.
And assign this Investment Profile to Project Profile in OPSA.
Assign this Profile to capital project.
Now all your assets which are AUC stage will come to this asset class.
You can create completed asset in the other class by full settlement.
Rewards for helpful answer.
Thanks,

<b>From SRM system, the BAPI - BAPI_REQ_CREATE is called in R/3 system which creates the Back-end Purchase Requisition in the R/3 system.</b>
<b>From SRM BAPI - BAPI_PO_CREATE / BAPI_PO_CREATE1 is called in R/3 system which creates the Back-end purchase order in the R/3 system.</b>
<u><b>Similarly, In our case, we need to read the R/3 data into SRM using any of the BAPIs which will bring up the Status and then update the same to the Shopping cart custom field.</b></u>
I am still looking for alternative approaches.
Wl update you soon on this.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points, incase it suits your requirement.

Digital Signature only Release Status with 3(Approver) Signer
Hello SDN Folks
I have done all the basic settings for Digital Signature which is sawn in following link
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Digitalsignaturein+DMS
it is work fine with 1 RE (Release) status and 1 Signer
We have in process to implement Digital Signature with only two Status
our scenario is
Document Creator Create Document With Status CR
Document Approver Approve Document With Status RE
now we have scenario that For 1 Document we have 3 Approver and 3 approver must digitally sign on DIR
our status is
only CR(create)---->RE(release)
so how i can attached 3 digital signer with only 1 RE(Release) Status
is it possible to go with 3 digital signer with only 1 RE (Release) Status ????
Regards
Tushar DaveHi Tushar,
Your requirement of utilizing 3 different approvers for a single 'Release' status in a document type/s can be addressed via the approach proposed below:
1.Define 3 individual authorization groups
2.Define 3 individual signatures
3.Define a common signature strategy
4.Assign the above 3 individual signatures to the common signature strategy
5.Define the signature sequence(the order in which the 3 approvers must approve)
6.Define users and restrictions(signature assigned to relevant approvers/users)
7.For the document type in question for the 'Release' status,assign the above signature strategy and test.
For more detailed information on using digital signature effectively,refer the below link

ME21N - in which table saved the release status for specific release code ?
and for the specific po number.
Hi
You will find all Release codes in T16FS
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.
