Hi,
Option-1:
You can create release characteristics with field KOSTL and add this characteristic with release class with other release characteristics. And you can design your release strategy based on requirement & then limit the cost center via authorization object K_REPO_CCA
Option-2:
Create Purchasing Group (OME4) as Department & assign the department to Cost center(KS02/KS01). Now create purchasing group as release characteristics with field EKGRP add this characteristic with release class with other release characteristics. And now you can design your release strategy based on requirement.

    I like to set the Purchase order release strategy based on the over delivery tolerance. But when i checking, the over delivery tolerance filed UEBTO is not in the communication structure CEKKO. Can you please help me how should i extend the CEKKO with field UEBTO.
    I do not have the ABAP experience, please guide me with coding.
    Thank you,

    Hi Siva:
    You should request the development key for this structure under your SAP system, then you can add the extra fields in CEKKO.

  • PO release strategy based on Material Group (CEKKO - MAKTL)

    Hi Experts,
    I have configure the Rel strategy based CEKKO-MATKL (material group) for purchase order, but when i raise the PO Rel strategy is not affecting, Can any body tell me why.
    Regards,
    Kumar

    You can set Release strategy based on Material group & other Line item specific fields..
    You better follow a suitable and hinder less process..
    For PR use Material group & Account Assignment based Release process..
    then for PO use a Release Process based on Header level fields like Doc type, Amount, pur Group etc..
    So that the approved PR line can be converted into PR and then the PO also subjected to Release before sending it to External Vendor..
    Even if you want you can make that the PO can not be created without referencing PR for SOme users or All users..
    based on your business requirement..

  • Release Strategy based on Attached PO scanned Image

    Hi experts,
    Can u please let me know if i can configure Release Strategy for PO based on the attachement. If possible i would insist on configuring the same using characteristics instead of Customization.
    When I have tried to do so I beleive there are two custom feilds allowed for Characteristics configuration but unfortunately both the custom classification parameters are already utilized. namely USRC1, USRC2.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks

    Hi Singh,
    Your requirement is not possible in standard settings.
    But how do you plan to configure release strategy on what is attached in PO? Do you use DMS for this purpose or use GOS?

  • Release Strategy to be reset for any change in purchase order

    Hi Experts,
    At present the release strategy configured is for any change in the value of the purchase order, the release strategy is reset. Now the the client wants that for even any text change of a word, text, quantity, value, addition, deletion the release strategy should be reset.
    Can any one guide to configure the release strategy for any change. Also please provide the list of standard parameters/scenario (E.g. change of price, change of quantity etc) for which the release strategy can be configured to be reset.
    Thanks in advance.
    AJ

    Hi Diwakar,
    I too have the same problem. I tried with Changeable indicator "1". The system does not allow to make any change to the Purchase Order even after the first level of Release. But the requirement is that the system should Reset the Release Strategy for even minor Change in the PO.

  • New release strategy should not trgger for PO released with old Rel Strategy

    Hi All,
    Please suggest. Po has been fully released with Release Strtgy V1 XX. Now I m replacing release strategy  XX with ZZ. If I change any po which has old rel str XX , system will reset new release strategy as in config changeability indicator 4 maintained.
    But requirement is if there is  any change or value decreasing in fully released Pos with old strategy  it should not retrigger new release strategy. If value Increases then New strategy should retrigger.
    Please help me on this.
    regards,
    Rohit

    HI Rohit
    A reset of the release strategy only takes place if
           -  the changeability of the release indicator is set to '4' in
              case of a purchase requisition and '4' or '6' in case of
              another purchasing document (purchase order, request for
              quotation, contract, scheduling agreement),
           -  the document is still subject to the previous release
              strategy,
           -  the new TOTAL NET ORDER VALUE is higher than the old one.
    The most important thing to consider in to avoid changes to release strategy customizing once the release strategy is used.
    The commom steps are:
    1- make sure all of the old POs should have been released.
    2- don't delete/change the original release strategy. create a new release strategy with copy function, then the old release strategy will not be replaced.
    3- if you delete the original release strategy and add a new release strategy which the characteristics in classification is same as old release strategy then the PO (have been approved) will be replaced with the new release strategy.

  • PO release strategy based on Account Assignment Cat (CEKKO - KNTTP)

    Hi Experts,
    I want to configure the release strategy for PO on account assignment category.when i  maintaining a characteristic for account assignment cat by inputing CEKKO- KNTTP , sys throughs error message. I looked in to CEKKO but I could not find the field .Kindly tel how maintain teh same .
    Regards,
    Kumar.

    Hi Kumar,
    Account Assignment Category and Item Category belong to the item level and not to the header level of a purchase order (table EKPO). Therefore,   neither Account Assignment Category nor Item Category are available in CEKKO.As work-around you can use the following user-exit:                                                                               
    MM06EF0S_STRATEGIE_CEKKO                                                   
    (enhancement M06E0004, EXIT_SAPLEBND_002, ZXM06U22).                       
    In this user-exit the data are available in structure I_CEKKO.   The hand-over from I_CEKKO to the calling program is via structure E_CEKKO.   In the user-exit I_CEKKO has to be copied to E_CEKKO , e.g. 
    E_CEKKO = I_CEKKO.                                                                               
    Please also see our FAQ note 365604, it is worth reading.

  • Escape Release strategy based on purchasing group

    Dear Experts,
    In our system,  PO release strategy is set up,
    But, some of the POs are not subjected to release strategy because they belong to a perticular Purhasing Group (P01).
    Where this set up is done?
    Regards,
    Shashidhar

    Hi Shashidhar,
    In your system it seems there is a characteristic created for Purchasing Group, if you want it activated for a particular Purch Group, then please do the following
    Determine the strategy that you want to be called ( You can see any existing PO to find it out), once done, you need to identify the characteristics and class
    SPRO-MM-Purchasing-Purchase order-release strategy, define release strategy, select your strategy and go to details and click on classification, in case you get an error and not able to, click on release pre requisites, come back and then try again, in classification you will get to see the various characteristics maintained and also the class name at the top.
    Once you have done that, please go back to the node Edit Class, please put the class that you obtained earlier and get the characteristics for Purchasing Group.
    Then go to the node Edit Characteristic, put your characteristic name say PO_RELEASE_EKGRP, Click on the tab values, and add your Purchasing group here and save it.
    Then go to transaction CL24N, provide the class, and select the release strategy you are interested in, and select change, and detail, there for the characteristic for Purchasing group, you can add the previously added Group, and you are good to go.
    Please let me know if this helps.

    Check the below exit and include which can be used in your case to consider the effective price.

  • Release strategy based on Total landed cost

    Dear Friends
    My client has the following requirement.
    Release strategy should be triggered based onthe Total Landed cost which include taxes, insurance, octroi and freight.
    we tried with the user exit but could not achieve the target as the Total landed cost is nowhere updated inthe EKPO table.Help inthis regard is appreciable.
    Regards
    Bapears K

    Hi,
    While defining characteristics please link up to standard dictionary i.e.
    Cost Center CEBAN - KOSTL
    Item Value   CEBAN - GSWRT.
    If you want account assignment also a controlling paramenter, then define Acc Assgnmt as a characterstic and assign the same to the class.
    Assign these characteristics to a class.

  • Cost Center based Release Strategy for PR's

    System :4.6c
    At this time, we have PR release strategy with classification configured for over all release.
    Created a new characteristic for cost center , assigned the values for the cost center characteristic, with zeros at the beiginnig.
    Now when I create a PR with multiple line items and with multiple cost centers, the system is not deriving the release strategy defined. But if I create multiple line items with the same cost center, the system is able to find the right release strategy.
    Does it have to be the same cost center in all the line items to trigger the right release strategy?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Looking at your question it seems you are using overall release strategy. If the characteristic value is not same for all line items then during overall release strategy determination, the system uses "BLANK" value for this characteristic.
    In order for a release strategy to be found, when you have different
    cost center in different PR items you need to add a blank value to your allowed characteristic value for the cost center in your release strategy. Also use Account Assignment Category (KNTTP) as one of your characteristics and define K as an entry, so that release is triggered only when it determines cost center blank with account assignment K.
    But if for diff cost centers there is diff strategy then you better opt for Item level Release.
    Please give this a Try.

  • Release strategy for quantity contract

    Hi Gurus,
    In quantity contract ..  target value will not filled by the value(in header details) as it is quantityt contract.
    We may have different line items with different cost..
    my doubt is how the release strategy will be triggered for the quanityt contract and how the system will consider the whole value of the contract..
    please explain/clarify
    regards
    subbu

    Hi,
    The release strategy for the contract will work in the exact mechanism as for the PO i.e. it will be determined  based upon the total net value of the entire purchasing document.
    Cheers,

  • Release Strategy for Credit Note un the QM Module

    Good SAP Guru's,
    I have a very important question for you:
    Is it possible within in the QM module (Transaction QM12) to implement a Release Strategy based on the value of the credit note to be created.
    This should work on the same lines as the Purchase Order Release strategy.
    Any guide lines and/or assistance will be gratefully appreciated.
    Kind regards,
    Leslie

    Dear Leslie
    We had done a similar kind of development in notification, not for credit memo though , but certainly can be incorporated in this case.We had done this for approving Short shipment and devaitions. If there has to be short shipment to be sent to a customer  a notification will be trigered to manager and if he approves it will go for higher approval.
    Please find my suggestion for this development
    1) Make 3 task codes. for eg Task 1 for  credit note is for less than u20AC500.00 . Task 2one for more than 501 and Task 3other one for more than 2001.
    2) According the need of the credit notes to be created let the user assign the task and release it.
    3) For task no 2 and task No3 a workflow triggers to the corresponding roles Sales manager & General Manager. ( please note that notifications are workflow freindly and standard workflows are available for the same)
    4) if Manager wants to approve he can make the Task Complete. ( Notification tasks have 4 stages, outstanding, release, complete, Succussful)
    5) Based on the status of the task you can make use of the action box in notification for creating the credit memo.
    6) The credit memo creation will have to be  developed. You will have to get ABAP support for this. They can either do it through user exit, or call transaction , and incorporate the same in the Action box of notification. (QQMA0001: User Subscreen for Notification Header, QQMA0014 Checks before saving notification )
    please let me know your apprehensions
