Release Strategy not working for MRP generated PR

I have one qurey. Currently we are release strategy for normal PR.Now client want to activate release strategy for MRP generated PR.
current Release Strategy for normal PR configured as following.
Purchase requisition document     RV
Purchase requisition document     ZADV
Purchase requisition document     ZIMP
Purchase requisition document     ZSER
Purchase requisition document     ZSTD
Purchase requisition document     ZSTR
Purchasing group     A01
Total value of requisition for     > 1.00 INR
Creation indicator (purchase r     Realtime (manual)
Overall release of purchase re     Yes
For MRP generated PR I add creation indicator B - Material requirements Planning.Even after add creation indicator release strategy is not triggering for PR.
To trigger PR any setting need to do other than add creation indicator.

Hi
You don't have to include creation indicator as parameter. Check in what documnet type MRP PR is generated. You can see it in t.code OMDT. At document type level also you can manage it. You need to include creation indicator only if a seperate person approves MRP generated PR.
To know how to configure release procedure see the below link

Release strategy not working - no multiple releases

Hi All,
Thanks for your help.
I have resolved that issue.
Now I am facing another problem.I am having release strategy with release codes R1,R2,R3,R4.
For certain amount say 1-99 I need only R1 approval.
and 100-199 the Po should go to R2 approval only and for 200-299 it should go to R3 level approver.But for amount >300 PO need both R3 and R4 approval.The PO should go for R4 Release after R3 Release.
R1,R2,R3 levels are working fine as the PO goes only at one level.But for R4 it not working.
The users are selected based on the roles assigned.
I am using a Ztable to get the roles where release code,group and roles are populate.
For each Release code are assigned Say for R1 it is ZR1 and R2 it is ZR2 etc...for each level the users selected based on roles say for R1 ---users will have roles ZR1.
But at R4 level I need to select the users for both ZR3 and ZR4.
When I am triggering the WF using Purchase order as Po number and Release code as R4 it is not selecting R3 roles.
I am using the user exit for the user determination based on roles.
Can anyone please help me on how to resolve this.
Thanks and Regards
Raju

Hi Sujoy!
Thanks for the resolution.
My question is: Currently, plant is set as one of the characteristic in the release strategy. Hence, this problem!!
Now, we need to remove this "plant" and maybe consider including Company code or Purchase organization as the characteristic.
1. Pl tell me how to implement this?

PO Release Strategy not triggerred for particular Total Net Order Value

Dear,
I am currently facing the issue where release strategy for purchase orders is not getting triggered for a particular value or lower.
For order value 1 INR or less, no release strategy is triggered for new created PO. And for value > 1 INR release strategy is getting triggered.
All otehr PO characterstics are the same, I mean to say the values for other characterstics such as plant material group are identical.
But the characterstics for release for Total net order value are <= 30000 INR. There are two system copies, where in one system the same release strategy is working as expected. But in other system the above mentioned issue occurs. There is no differnce which I can see in the release strategy setup.
Please suggest for solution.
Thank you.
Warm Regards.

Dear All,
While looking further into the issue by going into debugging mode, we have found that in include LCLSCF2I, Internal table p_selection_criteria_tab , the value for ATFLV (Internal Floating point from) gets different values in the two systems. For example, in the affected system, for PO with 1INR tottal value, for one of the Total value chaaracterstics before INR characterstic, ATFLV value is 0,0000000000000000E+00, hence it gets out of loop and doesn't trigger release strategy.
But in another system for same PO values and release setup, ATFLV value is 1,0000000000000000E+00 for that characterstic.
May I know how the value for this field gets calculated.
Thank you.
Warm Regards.

Release strategy not triggering for Specif plant

Hi Friends
I configured a release strategy with three charecteristics. P.org, Plant, Net value.
this stretegy is triggering for specific plants which are under a particular company code, and if I change to my plant and P.org. its not triggering.
I have deleted all the classifications and release strategies from, no other data in VV_T16FS_2 , AUSP,T16FV,and T16FS tables except this release strategies data.
do we have any settings at cocode level??????
please respond if answer known
Points would be awarded for for your valuable answer.

Thank you deepak for your quick respond
Actually There were already release strategies with same charecteristics, and with the values of other plants and other P.orgs which are under certain companycode.
these were triggering perfectly for PO
Now created new strategy for plant and P.org under different plant code of different cocde. this strategy not triggering for PO.
but if the release strtegy values replaced by the erlier plants and P.org again its triggering.
Now I created new chars, class, and stategies still same problem persists.
Release stategy working for the values of a prticular company code plants, Porgs.
and already tried your suggestion Cocode as char. but same its working for only that company code not for my companycode

Release strategy not working

Hi All,
I am working on a release procedure.All the release procedure configurations have been done for PO release .I have modified the user exit that determines the approvers which is a part of role 2000027 and I am using the standard WF 20000075 itself.
But after that when I creating a PO it is not triggering the WF.
When I am test the WF in SWUS by giving PO number and release code,its working fine.
But when I am Creating PO from ME21N workitem is not going to the user.
Can anyone please help me to resolve this.
Thanks
Raju

Does the PO have any Release Strategy tab in the Header of the PO. If not then your Release strategy is not configured in SPRO. Search this forum for configuration
2)If the PO has Release Strategy tab then please check in SWE2 whether the Linkage between the event and Workflow is activated. If not activate it. Also please check entries in SWEL Transaction code.
Thanks

PR (Header level) release strategy not working

Hi all,
I have configured release procedure for PR - Header level release(i.e. With classification). My scenario is as below,
If PR value is <=1000 INR and Plant 1000 Two persons will release the PR. I.e., Release codes A1 and A2.
If PR value is >1000 INR and Plant 1000 Three persons will release the PR. I.e., Release codes A1,A2 and A3.
i have created Two charac(for Plant and Value), one class(Assigned the characs to it), one group, 3 release codes, and 2 Release stratergies (i.e.S1 and S2). All the settings are fine. But when I create PR, system takes only the first Release stratergy by default. That is irrespective of the valuation price in PR system by default takes S1 release stratergy only. Even for higher value PR system is not taking S2 stratergy. I have given correct values in the classification field. Why does this happen? Release procedure without classification is not configured.
Note: I have even ticked overall release for document type NB
Any inputs? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ayyappan.

Hi all,
One thing is clear now. System is not all considering the value characteristics. Its only considering Plant character(WERKS). Thats why by default its taking first release stratergy since both have plant value as 1000 in classification view.
Just now i checked by using sinlge character. For release class with plant as character the release procedure is working fine but for class with value as character release is not at all getting hit.
Note:
1.My company code currency is EUR. My characteristic currency is USD. While i create PR in valuation price system by default selects EUR. I am manually changing it to USD. Is that correct?
2. Still my new posting period is not yet open.
Is there the problem is somethig related to above?

Source not determined for MRP generated PR

Hi,
I am not getting my source determined after the MRP is run for the Purchase requisions.That means I am not getting the Source termination tab activated and source of supply identified in the PR created after MRP run. Eventually I am unable to convert the PRs to PO properly and asking to add manually. I have maintained the source List and fixed the vendor.
Pls assist where might be the wrong happening..
Regards
Shash

check for Source determination tick in MMR for material...
Again check source list...
also check whether you have used proper indicator for MRP relevent in Source list..

"Save As" not working for cursor generated content

Hi All,
Oracle Portal Version : 9.0.4.
I have a PL/SQL procedure which generates a HTML page when called with certain parameters. When I am trying to do "Save as", "Web Page Complete" for this page in IE 6, it does not save correctly. The problem is that the content generated statically by the procedure is saved corretly, but the variable content (eg. parameters passed to the procedure or any cursor executing and generating data in the proc) is not getting saved correctly.
ANY inputs would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Abbas

I'm having the exact same problem when I try to save my credit card statements. But only on certain statements! I click on the link and the PDF file opens in a new tab (IE8). The Reader pulldown menus don't appear, so I can't choose File/Save (or Help), but when I click on the "save a copy" icon (the little diskette), NOTHING HAPPENS! No error message, nothing. (I haven't tried the print icon.) I've searched for the default name of the file, in case AR might be bypassing the save as window that normally pops up and saving it somewhere under the default name, but it's not found.
Right-clicking on the links doesn't work--"save target as" is grayed out. But this is true for all the links, whether they can be saved with AR or not.
As I say, this only happens on certain files. My June and July statements, for example, save fine (clicking on the save icon brings up the usual save as window). But not the May or August statements. There's no rhyme or reason to it. The links all appear together on the same page.
This only became a problem with my new computer, running Windows 7 and AR 9.1. In addition, the copies of the same files saved earlier to my HDD (using XP and an earlier version--I think--of AR) all save fine when I re-open them now with AR 9.1. It's only a problem when AR is launched by IE after I click on the link to the document. I can't see any difference between the documents (saved earlier) when I view their properties. I can't view the properties of the online documents because the pulldown menus don't appear when AR is launched by IE (which is a nuisance, BTW--is there some way to force them to appear?).
Any suggestions for a workaround until this bug is fixed would be much appreciated!

Release strategy for MRP generated PR.

Dear friends,
Can we have release strategy for MRP generated purchase requisitions.....
What are the steps required if yes.....
Plz. suggest....
Thanks in advance
Navin

HI,
IF you want to characteris MRP genrated PR then you have to define different document type other than the standrad one.
For this MRP define the release stratergy has usual procedure.
In case if ou dont have a different document type also the standard release procedure which you have conffigured will hold good.

How to configure wokflow for MRP generated & manually created PR

Dear Gurus,
I have to customize SAP workflow for releasing Purchase requisitions. I will be using enhancement M06B0001 for my own role resolution.
I have some questions regarding workflow
1) How to configure workflow for MRP generated & manually created PR?What are the steps? what are the limitations in doing so?
2) Since we are facing the problem of insufficient user license ,How to send notifications to NON SAP users?(We have thought of creating a Z table for the same)
Looking forward to your reply,
Thanks in advance,
Best regards

SAP MM Consultant

Dear Mike,
Thanks for your reply, & sorry for not responding on time.
Here are my constraints:
1) Not a single component of HR module will be implemented.(Project management decision:-()
2) Number of user licenses are less, considering the workflow users.(Hence we have thought of creating Z table for employee nos. & EMAIL IDs ,& this table will be accessed by using M06B0001 user exit.(It is still in development phase. Truely speaking, dont know whether it will work or not).If this works out ,then I believe, record from SU01 will not be used (Please correct me here).
3)We have 2 instances on development server.(in short,2 separate installations on same server by creating additional instance). What are the implications of this particular system landscape on workflow? Whether workflow will work or not??:-(, :-(.
The reason I asked you 3rd question is , As soon as 2 nd instance was created on development server, Short Dumps are coming while running transactions of Workflow builder.(SWDD & PFTC).It is giving error" Table is unknown or does not exist". Description of error says"The current program"SAPLSWF3 had to be terminated because one of the statements could not be executed."
"An SAP Open SQL Statement contains a table that does not exist in the database or is not listed in the ABAP Data dictionary.The Table is "SWF_WFPDSC" or another table is accessed in the statement.
Program=SAPLSWF3
Include=LSWF3U05
Row=22
Module name=SWF_WFP_REPOSITORY_CONTENT_GET
The same dump is coming while accessing SWF_WFPVW table from SE16.
Request to Mike & all of you, help me in this regard.
Thanks in Advance,

Separate Doc.Type for MRP generated PRs

Dear All
We are facing an issue with MRP process where we want to automate the process from MRP run to PO creation.
In source list we will add the existing contracts and make it relevant to MRP so that after MRP run we will get source (vendor defined in the contract) assigned purchase requisitions. After that, we will create a background job for ME59n in order to get the POs automatically after MRP run.
In this process we are facing issue with the auto PO generation through ME59n as funds management (FM) related parameters such as Fund and Fund center need to be enetered manually at the time of PO creation in our system. So in order to avoid this manual entry we want to define FM derivation which automatically populate the fund & fund center in the MRP generated PRs.
Further, we have two options for FM derivation one is valuation class and the second one is Document type. If we define the FM derivation based on the valuation class we cannot only restrict to MRP generated PRs. Second option is separate document type for MRP generated PRs.
Please provide pros and cons regarding the creation of new document type for MRP. Also, please provide your suggestions or any work arounds for the above discussed scenario. Your inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi nagaraj
it makes sense . i will explore and tell you.
what about your source assignment standard program. hope it will assign source of supply if it is a valid unique source of supply else it will assign eprofile to your purcase request. check with technical resource how the satndard program behaves.
i will also explore my side again. check mm forum too on your purchase organisation assignment for your userexists.
one question to you.
when you create a PR for material and go to source of supply .why do we get many fixed vendors like contracts,info record if we have valid fixed vendors as sap ecc standard.but in my PR i may not have Purchase organisation information.

Release Strategy to work on PO Gross value (inclusive of taxes)

Dear MM Gurus,
We have configured the PO Release strategy as under:
1) < 500000
2) > 500000
After checking the PO, we now find that the release strategy gets
triggered on the basic price only. Any additions to the amounts in the
condition tab also adds it to the Basic price and the release strategy
is properly working.
But when the user defines Tax code under Invoice tab, the Tax amount
gets added to the PO value. But in this case, the Release strategy
functionality does not work.
Requirement is that the Release strategy should work on the total PO
value (including Tax amounts). Any addition to the PO value by either
Condition amounts and/or Tax amounts should activate the Release
Strategy functionality.
Currently, it works only for the Net order value. Please let us know
how to configure for the PO Gross order value.
Thanks in advance
M

How can you include tax amount in the release strategy process. Approvers are doingthe approval/rejection through release strategy only for goods that are being purchased and it is value and tax amount is not relevant here at all.
Explain to your customer that this requirement cannot be implemented. If he still insists thatn tell him that only if they convert the tax amount into a price component, then it is possible. But then doing this means it is not tax, so basically the requirement is crazy.

Release Strategy or work flow in BI Content

Hi !
Do we have Release Strategy or work flow in BI Content of BW Release 3.5 ?
I have to display a history of purchasing requisitions and orders that was uploaded from SRM.
Thanks !!!
Zelda

You have to carry on the following activites:
1) Define Organisation Struture
2) Application specific customizing
A) Define Characteristic values
B) Define release codes and make them Workflow relevant
C) Define release strategy
Based on the characteristic values the Purchase Order will be applied to a particular release
strategy and will fall under specific catagory to pass through different level of approvals
D) Assign release codes to corresponding Orgnisational Objects with ID
3) Task specific customizing
A) Activate the event linkage for the standard workflow WS20000075
B) Do the agent assignment for the TS20000166
C) Make other two tasks as General Tasks (TS20000168,TS20000167).
4) Delete the row for event "Releasestepcreated" from SWEC (OSS Notes: 797775)
Hope this will help you
