There is no release strategy for sales order.
You can try it doing Authorisation /Status profile with your BASIS person...

Release strategy for sales orders

Hello Gurus,
My customer has got a requirement of approval of sales order before it actually goes for dispatch, (it is inline with the purchase release strategy).
Hope, SAP does not have a standard solution for this but I understand this can be done through the "status profiles". I dont have any idea how exactly this can be configured, can someone help on this? Please guide with the stepwise configuration.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
User statuses are always defined in a status profile.
Procedure
First, you create a status profile.
Assign the corresponding object types to the status profile.
Define the required user statuses in the status profile.
Assign the user statuses to the corresponding business transactions.
If necessary, translate the status profile and the user statuses.
To be able to work with a status profile, you first need to assign it to the order type in Customizing (Customizing for Shop Floor Control by choosing Master Data - Order - Define Order Types).
For information on how to create a status profile, see Customizing for Shop Floor Control by choosing Master Data - Order - Define Status Profile.
You have to activate the customized status profile.

Siddharth.

Dear Rama,
There is nothing like release strategy for sales order. There is a release strategy for purchase order. A bit of search on sdn forum in MM section will help you a lot on this area.
For your reference, 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   0
                        1
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.
Hope this helps you.
Do award points if you found them useful.

Release strategy in sales order is required before MRP run

Hi Experts,
My requirement is Release strategy in sales order is required before MRP run. My client is doing the following process:
1) Creation of Sale order (MTO). Ex: User creates 10 sale orders per day.
2) MD04- Stock Requirement List. All 10 Sale orders should be displayed. So no problem here.
3) MD50-Make to order-Planning . Here when user gives the sale order number and sale order item and press enter, then only the released sale orders should be allowed and the rest sale orders it should throw a error message and it should not allow to process further.
How this situation can be addressed in SAP.
Kindly post some hints and comments.
Regards,
Kiran.

Hi Kiran,
Define and Assign status profile BS02 at sales order detail (line item) lets say with create and release status
SD>Sales>Sales documents>Define and assign status profile
Have create status as default while creating SO with item
And do a user exit change for MD50 with ABAP consultant help and release it when user keys in SO and item.
For other line item I believe it will give an error
Pls try and update if it solves your requirment

Siva

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

What is the use of Release Strategy for Sales Document

Hi,
Can i know what is the use of Release Strategy for Sales Document? Difference between lowest level and Highest level.

Hi,
Can i know what is the use of Release Strategy for Sales Document? Difference between lowest level and Highest level.
Lowest Status No: Sale Document can have several statuses at the same time. However, only one of the statuses may have a status number. If another status with a status number is activated; the old status with status number is deactivated. This is only valid under certain conditions. The system makes a note of the status with the highest status number that has been reached up to the present. The "lowest number" of this status number determines which status number a new status must have.
Highest Status No: Sales Document can have several statuses at the same time. However, only one of the statuses may have a status number. If another status with a status number is activated, the old status with a status number is deactivated, provided the new status number does not exceed the 'highest number' defined for the old status number

Release strategy for maintenance order

Hi experts,
Can we have release strategy of maintenance order based on the components cost in the miantenance order

hi
i think you cannot achevie this with Standard SAP, you can make use of customer exit to enhance the releasing of order,other way is by indirectly ,ie create permits with classification as Planned cost specify the amount which will reject the relase of order saying permits are to be issued,and also you can assign the roles for the user for displaying the permits ,forbidding the issue of permits

Release strategy for sales docs.

dear all,
we have a process in sales ,that we create scheduling agreement or sales order .It will have to be released by 4 different people with different levels .Once released documents should not be modified by anyone except amendment procedure.
Pls suggest as to how to achieve this ...
thanks
shankar

This release procedure is not available in SAP for sales .
you can create Z*tcodes for this, for 4 diff ppl or levels
maintain the delivery block in sales order ( which will trigger directly from sales doc type)
in create sales order - made this "display mode"- by using transaction variant.
Now create
Z*
Tcode- ZLVL-1 -
a-Waiting for approval
b-approved level-1 - in this level, he can access only these 2 fields either a or b.
Tcode: ZLVL-2
c-approved level-2
similarly next 2 levels.
d- approved level-3
e-approved level-4
Give tcode authorization only for respective levels-
eg:level 1- ZLVL-1 n so on,
Now in sales order , userexit, write a logic
if the "delivery block " - approved Level-4 (E),
then , allow to save the sales order
or else trigger error mssg as " Not yet approved, cant save the document"-
hope it helps, without development i dont think its possible.

Valuation Strategy for Sales Order Costing

We are currently using valuated sales order stock in ECC 6.0. The "without valuation strategy field" on the requirements class is not checked. However, the valuation strategy varies for a material and for a sales order. Sometimes it is using valuation strategy 2 - cost from the production order cost estimate - which is desired and other times valuation strategy 3 - cost from the standard price field in the material master - which is not desired. When is the valuation strategy determined for a production order for valuated sales order stock?

Costing Variant is assigned to Requirement class
Requirement class is assigned to Requirement type
Requirement type is assigned to Planning Strategy
Planning strategy is assigned to strategy groups
Strategy group is assigned to MRP3 tab in Material Master
System picks the costing sheet in requirement class
In this way product will be costed for Make to Order sale order costing.

Release strategy for Poduction order

To All
We are mapped client bussiness with MTO scenario, but deactivate automatic Sales order costing as the material BOM is changable as per production line. We planned to cost after Bom is fixed for particular production.Now as Sales Order planned fot manual costing we want a check, that no one can RELEASE the production Order before SALES ORDER Costing is done.
I tried it by stasus setting but through it checking is not possible.
Please tell me if any Exit or other method that I can apply to restrict the Production Order release before Sales order coting.

Hi
No std setting is available in STD SAP .
we are working on same seneriao "Production orders will not be released unless a standard cost estimate or marked sale order cost estimate is available for the material.Standard cost estimate . Sale order costing to be done by authorized persons whenever required."
For that setting you can make a "Z" programe (means validation ) with the help of apaber and co consutant

Release for Sales order

hi all
i have a doubt regarding the sales order. when PO is created there will be a release strategy for that. Like same is there any release strategy for sales orders. if it is there is it a mandatory process for every sales order or exactly can anyone let me know in which cases the release process for sales order is used.
regards
rag

Dear Tarun,
You can set the rlease strategy for the sales order through maintaining the Status profile settings.
It is not mandatory process ,you can have this based on the business requirement.
This releasing process can be used when the client wants the specific user need to check the sales order before creation of the delivery and then release that to the delivery.
For more details about Status Profile process you can go through this SAP help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/dd/560629545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm
I hope this will help you,
