Release reason for blocked sales orders (VKM1 & 3)

We have a business requirement for a mandatory reason when sales orders are released in credit management in the same way that rejected orders have a reason code linked to them.
Has anybody else done anything similar?

Release Strategy concept in sale order

Dear All,
My requirement is that credit limit check at the time of sale order creation will be three category i.e. if 10% excedds releasing authority will be user 1,If 15% exceeds releasing authority will be user 2 and If 20% exceeds releasing authority will be user 3.Can any one please tell me how I can map this scenario through VKM3.
Valuable solutions will be rewarded.
Regards,
SP Shukla.

hello, friend.
you can do this with the help of BASIS. in tcode PFCG, you can configure levels of credit authority. the profiles you create will then be assigned to users.
in PFCG you create profiles with a list of t-codes a user is authorized to transact. you can include VKM1 and/or VKM3. when you do so, you will find options for these t-codes when you set up authorizations. you can very well limit a user's authority to release to, say, 10 to 14%. another user's authority is limited to 15 to 19%. a third user can be authorized to release 20% and to whatever percentage you specify.
BASIS will then create user accounts, and assign the profiles created in PFCG to the user account.
as this is a systems administration issue, the responsibility rests with BASIS with you as SD consultant helping.

Release strategy for Maintenance work order

Hi experts,
Can anybody tell me, how could i maintain release as mandatory before work order save?
Regards,
sumair

Actually, my requirement is that I don't want to create maintenance order (Specially incase of maintenance plan scheduling) when material is not available/short. I have done all the settings in configuration as well as assigned checking group in material master for availability check at both / individual options of order creation (save) and release. Only the release check is functioning perfectly. So, I am going to resolve this problem by setting "release is mandatory before save."
Do you have any solution to resolve this query?

Release Strategy for Asset Purchase order

Hi,
I have the following client Requirement.
1. PO document type will be anything but Po created is for Asset
2. In such case, Release strategy should be approved only be certain groups only. Anyway the Account assignment category will be "A"
As we cannot control the PO Release by Account Assignment category, it has to be controlled via User Exit.
I.e., combination of Acc Assignment category and Purchasing Group should result in a particular strategy.
Can you suggest relevant user exit? This is importantly needed. Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
Please do the following changes,same is tested by me in Our dev server and works successfully in PO.
Go to Se11 ,open structures -CEKKO (You will find KNTTP-account assignment field is missing)
Click on append structures ,system will ask you object name ,give as anything,then put a description /
Then system will ask you to add new field in CEKKO structures.
Add field KNTTP and save ,system will generate request for the same.
Now create a characteristic as CEKKO_KNTTP and save ,don't give table name here
Once saved,re-open the CEKKO_KNTTP ,here you need to give table name as CEKKO and field name-KNTTP. Define values an save.
then add the same in class ,and then select the required assignment in CL20N ,save.
And check the PO effects,it will works.

How to setup a release strategy for store generated purchase order

Hi there,
Does anybody know how to setup a release strategy for store/plant generated purchase order? I have a request from our client, but I never cross this before. Please help and let me know the step with every single detail.
Greatly thank for your help.
Kind Regards,

Please go thru the below Release Procedure and check whether you have maintained all the settings properly.
PO RELEASE STRATEGY
The release code is a two-character ID allowing a person to release (clear, or approve) a requisition or an external purchasing document. The release codes is basically controlled via a system of authorizations (authorization object M_EINK_FRG).
Use SE12, structure CEKKO to check all the fields available for controlling the Purchase Order.
e.g. If the total value for the Purchase Order exceeds 10,000, release strategy 01 is assigned to the Purchase Order. There is only one characteristic created in this example. For controlling the Purchase Order type, create characteristic for CEKKO-BSTYP and the value NB.
CT04 - Create Characteristic e.g. NETVALUE
Click Additional data Table name CEKKO Field name GNETW and press enter
(for currency dependent field, you are prompt to enter the currency which the system then converts the currency of the Purchasing document into this currency)
In the Basic data (X refers to tick),
X Mutliple values
X Interval values
In the Value data, in the Char. value column, type >10000 and press enter
Save your data

Once the Purchase Order is not release, buyers will not be able to print the Purchase Order.

In 4.6c, Purchase Order with Release Strategy have a tabs at the end of the Header. This allowed the buyers to check the release status of the Purchase Order.
The person with the release authorization have to use ME28 to release the Purchase Order.

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.

Reset Release Strategy for any change in the Purchase Order

Hi,
Is it possible in SAP standards to reset release strategy for even minor changes in the Purchase Order irrespective of whether it is value change or any change in the text or Purchasing group change or whatever it is?
If so, where do we need to make the configurations.
I have seen in some thread about resetting the release strategy for decrease in Purchase Order value.Even that was possible through some BAPI.
Thanks in Advance.
S.Raghavan

sandesh, raghavan:

MM:Release Strategy for Release Order again Approved Contract

Hi,
Release strategy for Release Order is required or not against approved contrat??
As fas as I know once the contract is approved, release order is not required to approve again.
This is the standard setting from SAP or We need to do some setting for this??
In my support project I have studied the release procedure and found that, same release strategy and release Group has been used for Purchase Order and Contract.
Please let me know if anyone have faced this rquirement or I have to go for Z development for this requirement.
Thanks you.

Hi Lalita,
Thank you for your quick suggestion.
yes definitely the release stratergy and release group should be set up separately but here both are same
that is the reason this is picking of the same release procedure again evenif the contract is approved.
we have following release characterstic for the release procedure.
1) Purchasing Group
2)Total Net Order Value
3)Order Type
4)Purchase Organisation
5)Material Group.
I think for the above characterstic we must a separater value for PO and Contract but Currently all are merge
in this only
But Can you tell me "Release Order should be subjected to release procedure" this is correct or not .
If yes then what is the base for this, I mean is it working on the concept that " If do relevent
release characterstic value is found then no release procedure and this is treated as autorelease in sap"
Thanks you.

Release strategy for PREQs created from PM work order

Hi All,
I have an issue with determining release strategy for purchase requisition for external services created via PM work order (iw31 transaction).
We have activated release strategy for Purchase requisition based on the following characteristics:
CEBAN_PLANT
CEBAN_COST_CENTER_GROUP
CEBAN_MANUAL
Characteristic CEBAN_COST_CENTER_GROUP is defined via user exit based on the cost center used in the PREQ and a z table which contains all cost centers mapped to the corresponding cost center goups.
In the user exit we have consider to cases:
The first one is when a purchase requisition is created with account assignment K (cost center) then system is checking the z table and determines the right cost center group.
The second case is when a purchase requisition is created with account assignment F (internal order) then based on the order type and number the cost center in the order is defined and based on it the corresponding entry in the z table cost center group is assigned.
The third case is when purchase requisition for services is created automatically from PM work order. In this case the PREQ is again with account assignment F, but at the time when user exit is checking the input parameters the real number of the work order does not exist and system can not defined the other parameters.
We have defined for this requisitions in the release strategy for characteristic CEBAN_MANUAL creation indicator " F".
Has anybody of you defined release strategy for PREQs created out of work order before. How did you manage to trigger the release strategy?
Best Regards,
Desislava

Hi,
For PM order find the costcenter in the settlement rule of the order or else find the costcenter in the Location tab of the order.
Consider this filed from order & write in the Z program to pick up the costcenter from there to find out the cost center group.

Raj
