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.

Sandesh Sawant

Down payment (F-48)   for Asset Purchase Order

Dear Experts,
Please guide me,   i am getting one error while doing down payment to vendor through F-48 ,    I created one asset purchase order, against purchase order making down payment that time i am getting this error message
"You cannot use this transaction type to post to this asset
Message no. AA834
Diagnosis
The transaction type entered belongs to transaction type group 15. According to the specifications for this transaction type group, posting with transactions types belonging to this group are only allowed in specific asset classes (for example, asset classes for assets under construction).
The asset to which you are posting belongs to class 401006 (chart of depreciation WCCD). You cannot post to this class using the transaction type you have entered.
Procedure
Check the asset number entered. You may want to allow posting with this transaction type group for the asset class of the asset. "
my asset is plant and machinery, any configuration is required.
as per my knowledge i checked in T.code : OAYB   transaction type groups   15 only assign AUC asset class and Capital Advance.    In account determination balance sheet accounts   there is Acquistion : Down payment   and Clearin G/lL for Down payment   g/l a/c not assign .
SAP F1 help in that field (above said) is saying that only for AUC.
Please guid me ,   What to do.
Thanks & Regards
Chandu

Hi Chandu,
Can youplease confirm the the Asset Class (the one linked to the asset you are using for carrying out down payment with T.Code F-48) has been set-up in configuration as an AUC asset class. Check on T.Code OAOA for the radio button selected for Status of AUC.
In case your Asset Class - which is Plant & Machinery - has been set up as "No AuC or summary management of AuC" i.e. has been set-up as a final asset class then you will get the error.
Solution Options:
(1) Either change the Asset Class set-up (using T.Code OAOA).
Please note - you might not be permitted/able to do this if the system already has posted transactions for this asset class.
(2) Carry out the downpayment for an AUC Asset (create an AUC Asset using T.Code AS01). Carry out F-48 for this. Later settle this AUC asset to the required/relevant final asset (using T.Codes AIAB and AIBU).
(3) Specify your Asset Class as available for carrying out DownPayment transaction. Use T.Code OAYB and for Transaction Type Group 15, include/add a new entry for your asset class.
(4) Ensure that the Account Determination linked to you asset class (check this in T.Code OAOA) has been correctly and adequately set-up for GL account determination (use T.Code AO90).
Hope this helps.

Ruchi

Down Payment for Assets Purchase Order and depreciation

I have created one purchase order for assets now when i am making down payment against purchase order it pick up asset and post down payment correctly without depreciation. But when i am clearing down payment against the vendor invoice it is reversing downpayment in asset explorer [AW01N] with Transaction Type 180 and calculating depreciation on reversal amount. I am using down payment spl G/l indicate "M" even i tried with "A".
Can anyone tell me why it is reversing depreciation on downpayment cleared against invoice when original down payment is not calculating depreciation.

Hi,
As per as my knowledge is concerned, you should treat the cost element as " Category 90 " , this is a balance sheet account.
Please check at your end.
Thanks

PR Release Strategy for Assets

We have PR Rel Strategy with characteristics Cost Center and total value, it is working fine. But now the requirement is that PR for Assets to be included. For this we have included characteristic 'A/C assignment category", but it is not working. We have maintained in cl20n. How to activate the release for 'Assets'?
Thanks,

Hi,
Steps - if already done then please recheck it
1. Maintain values for new characteristic - Account assignment
2. Assign new characteristic - A/C assignment to CLASS.
3.In CL24N check the status of all release strategies - Green check - symbol should appear against each strategy.If its green then release strategy tab gets triggered if all pre requisites are satisfied.

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?

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,
2tea

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
CL02 - Class
Class - Create REL_PUR
Class type - 032
Click Create

Release Strategy
Release group 02
Rel.strategy 01

OMGSCK - Check Release Strategies
(make sure there are no error messages)
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.

Release strategy for Purchase order

Hi Friends,
My client was using Release strategy for purchase order. Now we want to know the T-code for showing list of Rejected Purchase orders, T-code for for showing list of approved purchase orders, T-code for showing list of blocked purchase order.
Thanks and regards
Krishna

HI,
You can go to SE16N view table name EKKO
FRGKE   Release ind. = B
FRGZU   Release status = <blank>
mean, this PO yet to approve/ rejected.
FRGKE   Release ind. = R
FRGZU   Release status = X
means, this PO has been approved.
Hope this helps

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.
