Release strategy & EBAN for project systems, purchasing

Hi
We have 2 different scenarios for which we use same account assignment category "Z".
1) Purchase Requisitions for capital expenses (Account assignment category "Z") - this is part of project systems requisition attached to WBS elements
2) Purchase Requisitions for expensed items (Account assignment category "Z")
I have configured release strategy with classification with following characteristics
1) plant
2) cost centers
3) total amount in PR
4) account assignment category
all 4 characteristics are same in both areas (capital and expensed)of purchase requisitions, account assignment category Z decides whether it is capital purchase or expense related purchases. Z uses order number that is internally tied to WBS element.
my question is - if some one has similar scenario then what is the best solution to handle invocation of release strategy.
how release strategy can be determine, do I need to use user exit and if yes what best user exit is available.
EBAN fields, I have researched and I cant use fields like "requisitioner" for determining release strategy.
I would like to invoke different release strategy for capital projects and different release strategy for expensed items in PR. there is a workflow attached to this later.
Please reply
Thanks and regards

Umesh,
Well, there needs to be some way to differentiate the 2 types of purchase requisitions for you to use 2 different release strategies.
I am not sure if you have the option of using a different document type to differentiate the 2 requisitions. I would definitely look at this possibility and include the document type (CEBAN-BSART) as a characteristic in the release strategy.
Other options would be to look at using the purchasing group (CEBAN-EKGRP) or the requirements tracking number (CEBAN-BEDNR) as characteristics in your release strategy.
Hope this helps.

Release Purchase Requisition - "Release strategy"

Hi there,
I am trying to release a purchase requisition. I looked in the table "EBAN" and i can see the entry or in other words, the requisition i created. In the Release indicator, Release status and Release strategy fields, these are empty. How do i add information to these fields which appear to have missing data?
Speedy repsponse would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Motolani
spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Requisition>Release Procedure>Procedure with Classification>Set Up Procedure with Classification-->Release strategy
Select release strategy> Go to details>classification
here check what are the charactaristic and what are the values maintained for it
Check this for all release strategy
Mostly PR release strategy is based on Document type and PR Value
Check whether UR PR fits in release strategy criteria
Suppose Total value of requisition is maintained as 1000-2000
If UR PR value is less than 1000 Then PR will not subject to release

BAPI_REQUISITION_DELETE (Clears Release Strategy)

Hi guys,
Hoping you can help with a query. I'm using BAPI_REQUISITION_DELETE to delete a line item off a Stock Transport Requisition. The bapi is clearing the following fields in Table EBAN:
- EBAN-FRGKZ (Release ind.)
- EBAN-FRGZU (Release status )
- EBAN-FRGST (Rel. strategy)
I don't want this to happen as deleting one item from the STR should not clear the release strategy.
Has anyone encountered this before? I can't see an option in the BADI to prevent this from happening.
Many Thanks,
Philip Johannesen

Hi Philip,
we have the same issue.
Which the OSS Note?
Thank you in advance.

Purchase requisition release strategy tab missing

Hi all
I configured purchase requisition release strategy and ME51N is working issuing no error but it is not displaying Release Strategy Tab , please help me where i am wrong.

hi,
check few reasons:
1. There might be more than 1 release strategy using the same class, due to which it is not possible for sap system to determine the unique rel. strategy..this normally happens when you copy the exsisting class and assign it to own new one...
2. check the release strategy OMGSCK, is there any problem with your release strategy...
3. Check whether you have maintained all the classified field in the document or not..
4. check whether the release is assigned to any workflow...if so, then check the inbox pls...

Chek budget in PO with release strategy

Hi
When i created a PO with a release strategy and the comand need it, the budget are not checking at the save, only when i release the PO.
Is it possible to check the budget (on a PM order or on WBS element) at the PO save.
Thank's
serge

Normally checks like those happen once the PO is released ( example - output is not allowed etc)...
You may need to add something in the PO release strategy user exit to do the check before release (after save), Look into the below to see if this works.

Purchase requisition - release strategy statistic

Anyone knows if exists a standard program/tr/utility for monitoring the use of release strategies
for purchase requisitions ?
In our system there are a lot of release strategies obsolete or used for few cases, so
we would check the effective use of release strategies.
Regards.

Acknowledging old P.O's : retriggers Release Strategy?

Hello,
I know that when you acknowledge an old Purchase Order in the Confirmations tab, it can retrigger the Release Strategy, therefore disapproving the P.O.
Does this apply also if we acknowledge a P.O line item that has the Account Assignement Category "Y" (Non-Recurring)?
Example:
P.O line item #1: part number ABC, already acknowledged
P.O line item #2: "Y" non-rec charges, not acknowledged
If we acknowledge line item 2, will it retrigger the Release Strategy?
Patricia

Hi,
   The release strategy re-triggering depends on the release indicator used and it will re-trigger only if there is a value change or new strategy is determined. If you are simply flagging acknowledgement in a PO, it wont make any value change / new strategy and hence new release wont be triggered. Please check the note: 493900 - FAQ: Release Strategy Question number 3
   Also, please check whether version management is activated for the PO document type and version number is used as release characteristic. The release strategy will reset when version is set to complete and the new total net value is higher than the old net value. Refer the note: 1961482 - Reset release strategy when version number is set as Characteristic in Customizing
   You may note the above two points and analyze whether new strategy will be triggered for the corresponding changes in PO.

Release strategy and code authorizations

Hi,
We need to create a new release strategy for PO. After setting strategy, we are assigning existing release codes A1 and A2 to strategy. The same release code is also used in existing release strategy.
Now, will this create any authorization issue if we assign same release codes to different strategies, and different users in user roles.
Thanks
Alex

Hi,
I am confused with your requirement. When you have a business requirement to control the release, may be a new department created or new character value requires for adding to release process.
Option-1:--- >When you decided to create new release strategy, you should have gone for creating new release codes & design your release process with new release strategy with new release codes. Do not use same release codes, use different release codes for new release strategy which will be easy to control for authorization based on respective users.
Option-2:--- > When you added a new release characteristic to release class based on requirement, then check assignment of release group to release class ( just make change & TR need to be transported),release strategy design which trigger on how release is to be affected & which manner with a logic. Also check the new value you are entering with your release class, release group & release strategy in Cl20N/CL24N t.codes. Also check during creation of new release characteristic, you have values with correct field name.

Authorization roles for release strategy FRGSX

Hi guys,
we are using R/3 4.7. We are going to implement release strategy for Purchase orders in our company .
We have customized different release groups, for several release strategies and release codes, without implementing any workflow.
We have a problem on authorization roles because we assigned for each combination of release group and release code a authorization role but it is not sufficient to restrict the role for users because we don't take into consideration the release strategy.
We had a look on the system but we didn't find any object related to release strategy (techical name FRGSX).
Could you someone help me?
Thanks in advance
Vir

When assigning user authorization for PO release strategy each user is assigned to release group and release code. You cannot make a connection between specific release strategy to user.
Pay attention that the authorization needed are also for change PO (ME22N) - meaning you can limit the users by all the authorization values of the ME22N objects.
Use t.code SU24 to explore what auth. are checked in each transaction.

Release strategy complex customer specific checks

Hi MM guys,
does anybody knows whether there are UserExits for the release strategy functionality in 46C? We´re already using this strategy functionality via classification. But now we´ve got further request concerning the checks which have to be processed to determine wether a PO will be released or locked. These checks cannot be implemented over the classification system cause they´re more complex.
Thx, for any tips.
Andy

Hi,
The Enhancement for this purpose is M06E0004 and the user exit is EXIT_SAPLEBND_002.
You can use this user exit to pass values in user defined fields (e.g. USRC1, USRC2 etc) in structure CEKKO. If the user fields given in the structure not enough then this structure can be expanded and new fields can be added.
While using this user exit, please keep in mind that the user exit gets called while you start the transaction (e.g. ME29N) and you check or save the document. So when you want to pass values, you will do so only at the time of saving the document.
Regards.
