Release Strategy Characteristic Upload through LSMW.

Release Strategy Characteristic Upload through LSMW.
Introduction:
In case of Purchase order, we need to maintain Release Strategy each year. This is due to organizational changes. Due to huge organization, this is around one week activity for us. Reason, we need to maintain characteristics for around 300 different release strategies. Since, we can't transport "Characteristics" from one system to other, we need to maintain them in Quality as well as in Production system.
Issue: We tried to use option of LSMW to maintain these "Characteristics". But, system is giving error as "Logical Path is not available".
Question: Who is responsible to create this "Logical Path" and where it can be done?

Hi,
I think you moved LSMW from test to production and this might be happening due to this fact. Please redo steps in LSMW for:
Specify Files
Assign Files
Read Data
Create completely new paths, and allow system to recreate (you need the right authorization). This might help I hope.

Tomek

PR Release Strategy-Characteristic Z_GSWRT must be linked with CEBAN-GFWRT

Dear Experts,
I did a simple config for PR Release strategy. using Plant(Z_WERKS) and Item values(Z_GSWRT )
chose overall PR Release. During simulate release
the second level release its not able to simulate and it says check Prerequistie for second level
Can somebody expain why the system is giving me this below message.
Characteristic Z_GSWRT must be linked with CEBAN-GFWRT
Message no. ME_RELCHK056
Thank you
Imraan

Thanks for the solution that helped me to understand PR Release much better.
Values: Plant (WERKS)& Itemvalue (GSWRT) & Now I created (GFWRT) For another class for Overall PR release.
In my PR Release strategy with 2 levels I have these below things:
Rel Groups : 1 Group with name AA
Rel Codes: For AA is A1, For another AA is A2.
Rel Indicator: nothing is selected, am not sure what to do in this step.
Rel Strategy : For AA is S1, For another AA is S2.
I created class Z_GFWRT but am not sure which group I should assign it AA or I have to create another new group for Overall release.
After I checked the release strategy the system is giving me this below message.
No release group exists
Message no. ME_RELCHK014
Please can you walkme through in this process. This is first time I am creating a PR Release.
Thank you Very Much

PR Release Strategy Characteristic Changes

I created several characteristics for a purchase req. release strategy. I added an incorrect value and then deleted it on one of the characteristics. Is there anything else that needs to be done to ensure that value is really deleted?
I'm receiveing an error when I ALE that I have documents that won't post for the error:
REQ_PURCH_ORG : Value "Structure Exists " not found
Structure exists is not a value associated with this characteristic.

BOM Uploading through LSMW

Hi Experts,
I am Uploading BOM through LSMW by Direct Input method. I am having the following queries,
1. In that BOM I have Header data and Item data. While doing the Step 7(specify file) it accept the text file only not the Excel file. If I assign the Excel file means while executing the Step 9(Read Data). It gives error message, file and source structure have no fields.
So I came back to Step 7 and assign the Text file then it is accepting. What is the reason?
2. Even though It will allow to execute the Read Data steps I am getting the Header data only not getting the BOM Components data. Results data as follows,

Hi Girish,

            BOMITEM                  BOM ITEM DATA
2. Just tell me the method of Maintaining source field, why i am asking you that I enter manually in table maintenance, whether i am right ?
3. During source structure maintenance for what structure relationship I have to assign source structure.
4.During field mapping and conversion rule, I got no fields relates to BOM creation, what I did is just directly go to Extras in menu and choose Auto field mapping, am I right just tell me your suggestion in detail.
5. During specify files execution I got the screen as follows,

How business transation data,opening balances are uploaded through lsmw?

hi,
please tel me hoe to upload the open balances,business transation data of the vendor,customer and gl account through lsmw? along with that please explain the uploading theough bdc.........
i am eagerly waiting for ur answer...............please let me know asap.
with regards,
prasad.

Hi,
As all the balances can be uploaded through FB01,Create a document type by for upload set all the transaction allowed in document type.
Firstly create a LSMW for FB01 posting a document so that we will know what all the fields need to be captured.
Then in the same format create a XL template with necessary required fields and fill the same with data.
Asset master data also can be uploaded through FB01 by removing the reconcilation field in OAMK change the reconcilation control and upload the balance in FB01 and again in OAMK change the control to reconcilation.
or through OASV also you can upload.

BOM upload through LSMW

Hi,
Can anybody really suggest how to upload BOM through LSMW.
My specific questions are
do we require 2 files to upload
is header and items need to be recorded separately

Hi ,
Just my 2cent advise, Why don't you try BDC recording rather than direct input.
BDC recording is the option that you can choose to perform recording such as CS01.
TQ.
