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

Redetermine release strategy for purchasing requisitions

Hi Guys,
How can I redetermine the release strategy for purchasing requisions when changes on the costcenter (EBKN-KOSTL) are done -
I know that it will be redermined when I add the costcenter as charateristics in customizing for release strategy but thats not an option
I also tried to add coding in userexit for changing the communication strategy (Include ZXM06U13) but this exit doesn't provide information of the document number and position (EBAN, EBKN ..) so I can't find out if changes have been made
I spend several hours trying to find solutions for this issue but no working results so far ..
I hope you can help me on that
TIA
Manuel

Hi,
Note that EBKN will have entries corresponding to a PR only when it is
saved or checked, so KOSTL will not have any values for a PR which is under
creation. You should always use fields from structure CEBAN while
creating characteristics for Requisition release procedure as it
contains most of the relevant data about a PR under creation/change.
I would advice you to check the note 365604.
Please also check the changeability indicator in the customizing:
transaction OLME -> Purchase Requisitions -> Release Procedure -> Procedure with Classification -> Set Up Procedure with Classification -> Release indicator -> check the detail screen for settings.
Please check additionally the possible values for your characteristic cost centre (transaction CT04).

Release strategy for purchase requisition does not kick in

Hi Gurus!
I've been struggling with this issue for some weeks now.
I have set up the release strategy configuration for purchase requisitions with classifications.
However, if I create a purchase requisition the release functionality is not taken into account by the system.
See below some more information regarding my configuration:
1. I've created a new characteristic "REL_PR_GROUP". Status: released, Multiple values, Number of Chars 3, 7 values (TR1, TR2, TR3....TR7), Table name: CEBAN, Field name: EKGRP, Procedure for value assignment set to not ready for input.
2. I've created a new class: "REL_PR_ANPC". Class type 032, Status: released, Same classification: do not check, Char: "REL_PR_GROUP"
3. I have one release group "T1", Rel. object 1, OverReqRel is marked, Class: "REL_PR_ANPC"
4. I have 5 release codes. Grp: T1, Code: 01....05
5. I have 2 release indicators:
"R = Released", Rel. for ordering is marked, Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
"X = Blocked", Changeabil: 4, Value chgs. 100,0
6. I have 1 release strategy:
"T1 with Grp T1"
- one release group, 01 Manager
- release prerequisites not applicable because of only one release group
- release status, nothing marked = blocked, 01 marked = released
- classification, purchasing group is TR1 or TR2 or TR3 or TR4 or TR5 or TR6 or TR7
I intentionally kept the configuration as simple as possible so I can try to get it working first.
Now if I create a purchase requisition for an item with release group T1, I would expect the release strategy to be activated. However, this is not the case. I don't see the "release status" tab in the PR, and if I try to relase via ME54 the system says the PR is not relevant for release.
Could you please assist in getting this working?

Hi,
Have you checked in CL30/CL30N if your release strategy is derived successfully?
See section 3 of Note 365604. A small section of it:
You can use transaction CL30 search for an object using the data
of the purchase requisition/purchase order. Here, it is important
that the object search determines exactly one strategy. If this
is not the case, this indicates that there are overlapping
strategies in the system or that the release strategies in
Customizing do not correspond with those from transaction CL24.
See the previous point. If the object search returns more than
one result, the system subsequently determines an incorrect
release strategy or no release strategy at all.
If it is derived successfully, next, check the user exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_001 as per Note 371667:
The following assignment statement has to exist within activated SAP
enhancements M06B0002 (include zxm06u13) and M06B0005 (include zxm06u31)
for purchase requisitions:
E_CEBAN = I_CEBAN.

Release strategy for PO and RO

Hi All
My release strategy for Purchase order and Release Order is same.My release strategy has material group and PO/RO value as characteristics. What I want is that my releaase strategy for PO should be based on value whereas for RO it should be based on material group. Is this possible since we cannot have different release group for PO and RO.
Pl suggest how to go about?

HI Satish,
In the characteristic value screen we not only can give single values ,but also multiple values
and also range of values.
Since the Data type for this Feild is character ,that is the reason it is not taking Ranges
So the same is not working for PO,I too Checked the same.
So it is that you have to have material group ,then there is no other go but entering all the values for the same.
As we cant add a new Release Class also
Becoz the release class cant be different ,so as the characteristic values would be same.
if i could find something else will post you soon.
but as of know we cant do nothing in this case but create all the material group as charecterics values and add to that strategy.
Thanks
Anjanna.

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

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
Description - Release Procedure for Purchase Order
In the Same Classification section, click Check with error
In the Char. (characteristic) tab, type NETVALUE to assign your characteristics to the class
OMGS - Define Release Procedure for Purchase Order Type
Release Group - New entries
Rel.group Rel. Object Class Description
02 REL_PUR Rel. Strategy for PO
Release codes - New entries
Grp Code
02 01
Release indicators
Release indicators Release Description
0 Blocked
1 X Release
Release Strategy
Release group 02
Rel.strategy 01
Release codes 01
Release status 01
Classification Choose your check values
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.
Goods Receipts will be shown with Message no. ME 390 - Purchasing document XXXXXXX not yet released.
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.

Ashok

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:

Purchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition

Hello Gurus
We want to set up the urchase Requisition Release strategy for MRP based Requisition ..Any can one Please share your experience about the impact down the road?
Thanks
Nick

Hi,
If you want include the MRP related PR in Release strategy.
You need to include the field CEBANESTKZ-Creation Indicator (Purchase Requisition/Schedule Lines) in one of the characteristics which you create and include the characteristics value as per the field values like AReal time, BMRP, CConverted Planned order etc.. and include the charactristic in the Release Strategy will release group & release codes.
So when ever the PR is created through MRP run then this creation indicator will update in the PR as per that release Strategy will trigger in the PR.
there is one more option you need to create the separate document type as MRP PR then create document type as characteristics and include the values of all these document types and include in Release strategy.
But it will not pop up for direct PR from MRP run only trigger when planned order is converted to PR manually there you need to select this MRP document type then release strategy will trigger.
I think first one is best suited.

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 no determination

Hi guys,
I have a release strategy for PR that is determined based on the cost center, regarding the account assign. ctg. and the cost center. The problem is: when the release strategy is not determined - most of the times, it happens on the creation of a new cost center - the PR is born already released. I need to figure out a way to direct this situation to a strategy that nobody can approve.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Marcelo Buosi.

Hi,
Ok. Check the below process & May helpful to you.
Now Create purchasing Group for a departments ( Say example as E01 for Environment ) in OME4 t.code
Create a Cost center for the department where cost going to capture ( Say in Environment Department) and assign department to cost center in basis data TAB of cost center in KS01/KS02 t.code.
Note:
Create Characteristics in CT04 t.code {Table ECBAN & field name for department responsible }
Create Class in CL02 t.code and assign Characteristics with other characteristics
Create Release Groups, Release Codes, Release Indicator for PR and finally Release strategies u2026u2026u2026..in Classification view for each releases strategy keep the department responsible and other values.
