Release PO against contract whit limit value for USER

Dear colleague,
We work SRM server 5.5 . SP14 extended classic scenario, and we use contract management.
We need to release PO against contract and we want to LIMIT the users that PO value have to be between 60 USD as minimum order value and 120 USD as maximum order value.
We know that solution for the minimum order value is to use the u2018minimum order valueu2019 in the contract item with the value 60.
Can someone help with the solution to limit user to maximum order value against contract.
Thanks
B.R.

One option is that you could implement the maximum value logic in BADI BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI and give out proper error message if the user enters value outside of the range.

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.

hai sajid,
As u said,
open order quantity = total quantity in contract - total quantity released against that contract ( Through release orders )
it is right,

Function Module to find out the release value in contract

Dear All,
I have to upload the contract with new accoutn assignment without changing the existing contract. For that i have to download all the existing contract data with value.
In that case i have some issues regarding the value.
For example : In the system old contract is created with value 1000 and the released value as 500.
In that case i have to uload the new contract with all the details of existing contract with value of 500 (1000-500=500).
How can i get the value (500) and from which table.Is there any functional module to find out the release value in contract.
Thanks and regads,

Hi
You need to link the table VBFA and VBAK.
For a contract you can check all the subsequent document (which you can filter whether you want to see Order / delivery / Billing) in VBFA and then from there pick the subsequent document no. and then from VBAK you can pick the Net value of these subsequent documents, and so you will have both the values (value of Contract and value in subsequent document) and you can determine the balance value.

Release strategy of contract disappeared after using of MEMASSCONTRACT

Hi All,
May be some one can help me?
I have next problem it tr. MEMASSCONTRACT(ECC6)
Release strategy of contract disappeared after using of tr. MEMASSCONTRACT. I know why it happened, but I don't know how to correct it. Some time ago IN ECC5 we added a field to a table EKKO and used this field as one of characteristics in the release strategy of contracts. In order to transfer value of this field to field CEKKO-USRC1 we used User Exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002. This User Exit is suitable only for online transactions (ME31K, ME32K). How can I feel field CEKKO-USRC1 in transaction MEMASSCONTRACT?
Regards, Liza

Thank you. Probably I didn't explain my problem clearly. It's section of code from User Exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002:
ATA: reference(20) TYPE c VALUE '(SAPMM06E)EKKO'.
DATA: it_ekko TYPE ekko.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <ymm_icl> TYPE ANY.
e_cekko = i_cekko.
*THE "ICL Contract" FIELD IS ONLY RELEVENT IN THESE TRANSACTIONS
IF sy-tcode EQ 'ME31K' OR sy-tcode EQ 'ME32K'
OR sy-tcode EQ 'ME33K' .
ASSIGN (reference) TO <ymm_icl>.
it_ekko = <ymm_icl>.
e_cekko-usrc1 = it_ekko-ymm_icl.
ENDIF.
Program SAPMM06E can only be reffered while using online transactions. Mass transactions does not use these program and it is completely class based. So, may be someone know how can i do the same , but for tr. MASS in ECC6.

Purchase Order not subject to release strategy for contract rel. strategy

Hello, I am trying to set release strategy for contracts (TCODE: ME31K). I have created characteristic, which use table CEKKO and field name BSTYP in Addnl data tab. I have checked values, and they are correct. Then I have assigned in release strategies in classification view value contract. But when I try to check release strategy in ME31K with green flag, it display error: Purchase Order not subject to release strategy. (I have tried to do the same strategy in purchase order, of course with value Purchase order, and it works nice).
So I have checked this release strategy with this codes:
CL24N ok,
CT04 ok,
CL30N ok,
CL20N ok,
Release simulation in release strategy works,
Then I found out that I should check SE38, SE37 but I do not understand how to use them (according: Purchasing Document Not Subject to Release Strategy).
Thank you for your help in advance.

I haven't said to use EKPO table in characteristics. You have to use CEKKO - BSTYP in characteristics.
I've just said the compare the value which you have given in Release strategy - Classification and EKPO table for the particular contract.
Also compare your release strategy settings with many existing documents in SCN.
Check your Classification should be like that.
You may see the error message in ME31K. Just save the contract then go to ME32K/ME33K or ME35K you can see the release strategy will effect for the contract.

Release Strategy for contracts.

Hi gurus,
Good day,.
Please help on this.
We have a release strat for Contract. It is working fine when a contract is created, but when several changes were made on the Quantity, release srtat are not being triggered.
Example.
Contact created with qty 1000 --> release status is blocked. Then release it in ME35.
After releasing, quantity was updated to 1200--> release status is blocked. Then release it in ME35.
After releasing, quantity was updated to 1100--> release strategy was not triggered. Status was released.
what is the standard functionality for this? Should the decrease in quantity will trigger release strategy or not?
Thank you.

Dear Acel,
The example you given was working just fine and correct.
a)Contact created with qty 1000 --> release status is blocked. Then release it in ME35.
b)After releasing, quantity was updated to 1200--> release status is blocked. Then release it in ME35.
c)After releasing, quantity was updated to 1100--> release strategy was not triggered. Status was released.
-> The release strategy will only be reset if the total net value for the contract was higher the previous
value but not lower.
As your example, quantity was updated to 1200, then it will reset when changing from 1000
to 1200. However when it was decrease to 1100, then it will not reset anymore as you had
release it for a quantity of 1200, then the total net value should higher than the current qty = 1100.
In system, it always assume if you had approved for the total value of the higher 1 before, then
it should be fine for the lower total net value for your management and therefore not need to re-approve
again for redundancy job. This was very logic in common business scenario in many companies.
However, like in your example , if you had define a different release strategy for a value that met the
the 1100 quantity, it will redermine the different release strategy. For example:
USD 1 for every quantity = 1
Then your contract will be USD 1000 for quantity = 1000, USD 1100 for quantity = 1100 and
USD 1200 for quantity = 1200.
Release strategy A for 1000 , characteristics from USD 1000- lower than 1100
Release strategy B for 1100 , characteristics from USD 1100- lower than 1200
Release strategy C for 1200 , characteristics from USD 1200 onwards
Then if you change the quantity from 1200 to 1100, it will redetermine the release
strategy B which means from Release strategy C to Release strategy B. If you
only had Release strategy C that had a characteristics from 1000-1200, then
it will keep the Release strategy C as released and it won't be reset unless
if you had change it and the condition of the total net value was higher than any value
before.
Hope this will explain the logic.

I had released and saved for all the levels i.e for all the release codes.
Still it is behaving the same.
I have not used any ref purchase org as mentioned above in one of replies.

Define Release Procedure for Contracts in RE-FX

Hi Gurus!
I´d like to implement the release procedure for contracts in RE-FX similar at the MM module? Is it possible?
I didn´t find in RE-FX.
Thanks,
Brunoro

Hi Brunoro,
To the extent I am aware in REM exact release process is not available. Instead you can control the Creation/Activation of contract by resticting access to activity 01/07 (respectively) in your seperate roles (with the help of Basis team).
The person authoriosed for Activity 01 will not be authorised for activity 07. And communication between two users can be chanelled via worklist.

Release Strategy for Contract

Hello Experts
I am using release starategy for contract and using communication structure CEKKO in characteristics. I want to use other parameter such as material master number (MATNR) for characteristics. I see that CEKKO has component .INCLUDE (Communication Structure: PO release for User Exit). Does any one know how to use it in characteristics and if I use it can I design release strategy for particular materials?
Thanks

this has been discussed multiple times on this forum - "Release strategy at item level for purchasing docs - PO/SA/Contract" not possible...

Reject in release process of Contract

Hi Friends,
This is in ref. to release procedure for contract.
We have three release codes 00, 01,02 in perticular release strategy. 00 and 01 has been approved. Now it is pending with 02 to approve. He don't want to approve & want to reject so that it goes to 01 or 00 level.
I checked in system & sap.help.com, in which I didn;t find the solution. Is there any way to do this.
We can do this in Purchase order.
Thanks & Regards
Sai Krishna

Hi,
Check whether it is possible through maintaining the release indicator as reject which is maintain or called in release status of the release code.

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,
Jaheer

Hi,
   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.

PO release strategies with Contract

Hi,
implementing a PO release strategy (SAP-MM module)I need to consider the case in which a PO is assigned to a Contract.
If so, different release strategies should be selected according to the PO value.
Possible cases:
S0-strategy 0: Contract does not exist, PO value>=0eur
S1-strategy 1: Contract exists, PO value>=100eur
S2-strategy 2: Contract exists, PO value>=200eur
Is someone aware if it is possible to activate such release strategy without defining manually in the characteristic for CEKKO-KONNR field all possible contract single values (entire range)?
Thanks a lot for helping!

Hi Elisabetta,
I've moved this here because it is a more appropriate thread. BPX is the place for discussing the role of the buisness process expert. This is a MM question
Message was edited by: Marilyn Pratt

Dear Amit,
Requirement: If GR posting date exceeded 45 days than delivery date set in PO, then delivery date in PO has to be changed to current system date and at the same time New Release Strategy (B1) has to be triggered with one release code (02) automatically.
So in that case the values in Release Strategy (A1) and (B1) would remain same,,, as you suggested we will assign the value 01 u2013 USRC1 to Rel Strategy (A1) and 02 u2013 USRC1 to Rel Strategy (B1) and the same we will try to incorporate in the coding of Exit u2018'M06E0004'
We will check the process and confirm the same.
Thanks for your suggestion.
