Dear Narendra,
We also faced same problem and found that the release strategy was not transported correctly .So my advice is that identify the correct transport and retransport it .Along with this please check all release strategy tables ,there will be some entries missing.

Hi,
Can we assign the two release class for the po release strategy.?HI,
No,we can assign only one class.but we can assign multiple characteristics to this class.
Characteristics are used to define the criteria on which you wish your purchasing documents are to be released. For example it can be plant , value, Document type, Material Group etc.
The selection is based on the fields available in the tables for release, Like CEBAN for Requisitions and CEKKO for Purchasing documents.
If you want that Value shall be a criteria for release then you will make a characteristic for value, and define the value or value ranges, you have the option of going foe single value or multiple values. Like wise you can make diff Characteristics as per the Client Requirement.
Now all these characteristics can be grouped under a class.
Now this class is assigned to a release group.
Then when you create a release strategy, you can make many strategies under one group, where in you shall get the option of selecting value of Characteristic to be used in release stategy,
For eg. say I have a characteristic Z_Value. with values 1- 10000, 10001 - 20000. and other characteeristic as Z_Plant, with values 1000 and 2000.
Now you add this to a Class say Z_rel.
Assign it to a Group say 01
then while creating a release strategy say s1 unde group 01 you can choose plant value as 1000 and value as 1-10000.
so whenever there is a PO of value b/w 1-10000 and plant 1000 it will go as per the release strategy s1.
hope its useful for u

Three steps involved in release process of purchase order.
1) Edit Characteristic: -
Create characteristic for release purchase order. If you want to release purchase order on purchasing group base. So you can create characteristic for purchasing group. Take reference of CEKKO structure and BKGRP field for purchasing group in additional data of characteristic. E.g :- Purchasing group - BKGRP
2) Edit Class: -
After creation of characteristic, create class for release purchase order. In which you can take reference of
Class Type: - 032,
Status: - Release,
Class group: - Release strategy class,
And put reference of your characteristic, which are created by you in first step.
E.g: - Class - REL_PO
3) Define Release Procedure of purchase order: -
In this step four processes involved.
1) Release Groups
2) Release Codes
3) Release indicator
4) Release Strategies
1) Release Group: - In which you can define release strategy group
For Exa.: - Release group : - 01,Release object: - 01, Class: - REL_PO.
2) Release code: - In which you can define release code. Enter value as
Release group: - 01,release code: -01 - Purchase Head,
Release group: -01, release code: - 02 - Auditor.
3) Release indicator: - In this step you have to define release indicator.

Release Strategy disappear in a purchase requisition
Please assist if a purchase requisition is created with different account assignments the release strategy disappear from the requisition.
What might be the problem?I have the same problem. If the purchase requisition contains 2 account assignment categories (K and Y), it does not create a release strategy. I can create a new requisition and get a release strategy if I try to use them separately (not in the same req).
If i use CL24N, I can see where the RELEASE STRATEGY/CLASS R1 R1 shows a AccountAssignmentCategory value of K and Y. Why can't I use them in the same purchase requisition?
Thanks! -

Shehi
i think u need workflow for release strategy
Steps involved are :
1) SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Release Codes > here assign Workflow indicator as "1" against each Release Code
2) SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Workflow > Here against each release code assign OT as US and respective User ID's for Release Codes.
3) Go to OOCU > here under MM, go to MM-PUR,
4) Click on "activate event linking"
5) Go for "WS 20000075" and for BUS2012 RELEASESTEPCREATED, click on Detailed view button. Activate "Event linkage activated" and also activate "Enable usage of event queue"
and Save.
6) Click on "Assign agents" and proceed all above steps.
BUS2012 is the relevant business object and Releasestep created is the event for the same.
7) Check SWETYPV transaction for the WF you have activated for BUS2012 and confirm.
Test the same by creating a PO and check the SBWP for SAP Mail of respective Users

SES release strategy being incorrectly triggered
Dear All,
We have maintained release strategy for Service Entry Sheet. In the SES release strategy class only the following characteristic is maintain
a. Name of the person who creates the Service entry sheet
In the release strategy only 'a', 'b' and 'c' users are maintained in the above characteristic. But in the system even if a user f creates the service entry sheet the system applied the release strategy on it too and asks for release code. The system should only ask for release code if a,b or c user creates SES.
Thank you!Hi There
Just a guess,,
In CT04- for Name of Person who Created the SES (ERNAM)- in the values tab-
Check the indicator-Additional Values is eanbled or not,, if enable remove it and try
Thanks

PO release strategy - release code
Hi Experts,
I have completed the release strategy and transported to production.
However noticed that the release codes that has been configured earlier wasn't in the production.
Is there a way to update the release codes in the production besides using SPRO (no authorisation for maintaining - only display) like using CL24N to update the characteristics?
Thanks and regardsHi,
Please first check the attached notes that refer to transport issues.
365604 FAQ: Release strategies in purchasing
186809 OMGQ/CL24: Inconsistency for release strategy class
86900 Transport of Release strategies (OMGQ,OMGS)
45951 Transporting class data: system / client
10745 Copying classification data to another client
The classification data must be sent over using ALE. It does not get
transported directly. Notes 45951, 86900 and note 365604 should help.
Please follow the instructions in note 45951.
You can obtain more information about how to set-up ALE in the Online
Documentation CD (R/3 Library > CA - Cross Aplication Components >
Business Framework Architecture > ALE Integration Technology > ALE Quick
start).
However, if you can't set-up ALE, you can re-create the classification
data agin in your target system. For that you have to:
1- assign new values to the characteristic master data (t-code CT02)
2- assign the new data to the classification system (t-code CL30)
3- verify the consistency with t-code CL24. Please see note 186809.
For more information, please see note 365604.
The transport of release procedure customizing data can only be done
in a restricted manner. Please take a look at attached Note 86900 and
follow the procedure described in this note, in order to correctly
transport your release strategies.
Classification data can only be transported via ALE as per note 45951.
Note 45951 explains what class data for the release strategy will be
distributed from one system to another. It does not describe how to
implement as this involves a lot of explanation and is truely a
consulting issue.
There is another possibility that you could take into consideration for
the classification is to import them via batch input:
RCCTBI01 for creating characteristics
RCCLBi01 for creating classes
RCCLBI03 for classification

Class and release group and code in release strategy??
hi experts ,
Can some body explain me..
I have created Characteristics and Class for for release strategy.
But while creating release group , i should assign my class with release group , after doing this when i save , its giving error as check the release classes????
I m using the same class what i have created for my company..
So how to over come this issue
ThanksRelease Prerequisites
Definition
The release prerequisites indicate the sequence in which a purchase requisition or an external purchasing document must be approved via the release codes. The release prerequisites are defined in the Purchasing Customizing facility (in the release strategy).
The approval procedure for purchase requisitions in an enterprise may be set up in such a way that a department manager must approve a requisition item before the next level of authority (e.g. the cost center manager). In this case, approval by the department manager is a prerequisite for approval by the cost center manager.
Release Indicator
Definition
When a requisition or an external purchasing document has been processed via a release code, a release indicator is assigned to it.
When the system sets which release indicator is defined in the Customizing facility for Purchasing (in the release strategy via the release statuses).
What does the release indicator determine?
Requisitions...
External purchasing documents....
Whether the item may be changed by Purchasing or Materials Planning and Control after the start of the release procedure
Whether a new strategy is determined and whether existing releases must be cancelled in the event of changes
Whether an RFQ or a PO may be created with reference to the item
Whether the document may be changed by Purchasing after the start of the release procedure
Whether a new strategy is determined and whether existing releases must be cancelled in the event of changes
Whether the purchasing document is released for transmission
Alternative Release
Definition
Within the release sequence, you can define alternatives. This means that several employees can effect release (signify approval) at a certain point in the sequence. If just one of these employees has effected release, the next release status is reached. The other employees thus need take no action.
Five release codes are defined for purchase requisitions in an ascending hierarchy. The requisition item can be converted into either an RFQ or a PO if release has been effected either with the release codes 01, 02, 03 and 04 or - alternatively - with release code 05.
The box with the information on the release strategy also offers you the possible alternatives for selection (see Displaying Release Information).
An alternative release cannot be a prerequisite for the next release code. In the above example, the releases with codes 01, 02, 03 and 04 could not be prerequisites for release with 05.
Release w. Classification (PReqs./Ext. Pur. Docs.)
Use
The aim of this procedure is to replace manual written authorization procedures using signatures by an electronic one, while maintaining the dual control principle.
The person responsible processes the requisition or other purchasing document in the system, thereby marking it with an "electronic signature" which can give the document legal force.
This release procedure can be used to approve requisitions and the external purchasing documents RFQ, PO, contract, scheduling agreement, and service entry sheet.
Purchase requisitions are released either at item level or in total. There is no provision for item-wise release (i.e. partial approval) in the case of the external purchasing documents. The latter can only be released in their entirety.
If you set up the release procedure with classification for purchase requisitions, the procedure without classification is deactivated.
Prerequisites
The release procedure with classification must have been set up in Customizing for Purchasing. In addition, a class with characteristics must have been created for each document (requisition, purchase order, etc.).
If you wish to set up both the overall release procedure and the item-wise procedure for requisitions, you must create one class for each procedure.
How to do this is outlined in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Purchasing in Define Release Procedure for the relevant documents and in Set Up Release Procedure with Classification for purchase requisitions. You will find detailed information on classification in the R/3 Library in the documentation CA Characteristics and CA The Classification System.
This procedure offers a wide range of possible combinations of release criteria. Should you nevertheless have other requirements, use the enhancement provided by SAP.
Operation of Release Procedure w. Classification
The characteristic values from a requisition or external purchasing document are passed on to the classification system.
The system checks whether the values correspond with release conditions. If so, it assigns a release strategy.
The persons responsible for the release codes process the document in the sequence defined in the release strategy. -

ZPO_BSART Order type (Purchasing) CHAR 4 0
ZPO_EKORG Purchasing Organization CHAR 4 0
ZPO_EKGRP Purchasing group CHAR 3 0
New Characteristic for South africa :
ZPOSA_BSART PO Order Type ATSA CHAR 4 0
ZPOSA_EKGRP Purchasing Group ATSA CHAR 3 0
ZPOSA_EKORG Purchasing Organization ATSA CHAR 4 0
ZPOSA_GNETW Total net PO value ATSA CURR 15 2 ZAR
ZPOSA_WERKS Plant CHAR 4 0
