Requisition Release Procedure No longer working
Hi expert!
My client raised an incident regarding the PR release strategy. Their Requisition Release procedure is based on document type.The user that is creating the requisition has the option of choosing document type NB (Non Release Requisition) or document type RNB(Release Requisition)
If they choose NB the requisition will not go for Release.If they choose RNB the requisition will go for release.
Then they created a new Purchase Requisition doc type(ZTP) and the transport has been moved to PRD. No config changes were made to the Purchase Requisition release procedure. Now the requisition release procedure is no longer working.
I'm not sure why it's happen like this.Can anyone explain?
Hi ,
The transport request has nothing to do with your earlier release strategy.
Just check the charactersitics values linked to Release Strategy.May be someone might have changed it in production.

PR release procedure no longer working-error MEPO 822
I've raised a message previously regarding PR release problem. Now i've found something that need expert helps to clarify on this.
Situation :
One of my client(ABC) implemented release procedure for PR which is not assign to value limit. It is by document type. They had 2 document types; NB and RNB.
NB = NOT subject to release
RNB = SUBJECT to release.
So when they :
create a PR with document type RNB - it will goes for approval.
create a PR with document type NB - it will not go to approval.
It was working fine until after they created a new document type which copied from NB, called ZTP.
ZTP = NOT subject to release.
They did not touch anything on PR release configuration. However, the release has no longer working. Means, when they create PR with document type RNB, it will NOT go for approval as it suppose to. I've check in configuration, all are fine.
Findings:
I've created a PR, and go to ME45N to release it but system prompt me an error message
"Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released". I check on the message data, the error coming from MEPO, message number 822.
So i check in OSS and found a note which is similar to this case.
Note 939371 - Overall release PR using ME54N gives error MEPO 822
Link : https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=939371#Text
But my question is,is it also applied to ME51N and without external application as per my client's case?
Please anyone help.
Thanks.Hi guys!
Wants to share something. I had a problem to release my PR. When i want to release PR via ME54N, system give me error message "Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released". When i checked message data, it is coming from MEPO Messafe 822. So i asked SAP, they said this one is caused by different issue. Here's the reply from SAP.
Here's the reply from SAP :
Purchase requisition 10000066 cannot be released
Message no. MEPO822
Now click the other requisition button and let say
choose Purchase requisition 10000068,
Execute ME54N again:
Purchase requisition 10000068 cannot be released
Message no. MEPO822
Comment/explanation:
The log incidence seems not having problem with release
strategy as it was ok but it was the last PR was called
everytime ME54N was called. This same as it works in enjoy
transaction ME21N/ME22N or ME51N/ME52N.
For example, When using ME21n or ME22n to create or change PO,
after saving the PO. There are 2 ways to exit the transaction,
1, enter another T-code or use /n to exit directly.
2, use 'F3' or the 'green tick' to exit ME21n (or ME22n)
Then you can access ME23n to see the difference.
For the 1st way, ME23n won't display the last PO created in ME21n
For the 2nd way, ME23n will display the last PO just created!!!
Please see attached consulting note 595627 that explains a new
functionality as of release 470:
Due to performance problem, a decision had to be taken about the way to
use transactions. If you leave transaction ME21N/ME22N via the
exit button (F3), the expected PO will be displayed next time you use
these transactions. But if you quit abruptly (/nXXX) the PO number
won't be saved for the next transaction ME2?N.
As SAP note is the official document to explain system behavior,
this document is provided by SAP developement to explain this system
behavior to customers.
In your case, you had used ME54N and this was same as you use ME53N.
The last PO always display. You may try to view Purchase requisition
with release strategy, for example Release group R1, Rel. strategy
R1, then after this execute transaction ME54N again, the message
MEPO822 will not be there anymore.
Hope this will help you guys if you're having the same problem in future.
Thanks,

Release code - Purchase requisition - Release Procedure
Hello,
In the purchase requisition release procedure with classification, we are defining release codes say K, P etc.
My doubt is , Is this being defined else where based upon the designatin of the person in the organisation, or else, we are defining here straight away?
Best regards,
K.Kumaran.HI
You are correct, you need to define the release code there only. There is no other place where it is defined. What you have to ensure is make sure that it is of Two character and not single. Assign the codes against the designation of the person as per your requirement.

Purchase requisition release procedure through User-Exit
Hi Workflow Guru,
I have a requirement to configure purchase requisition workflow . the workflow should trigger through release strategy.
The approver should determine through user-exit and the approver should determine based on value and quantity and that can be define in user-exit. as per my knowledge the value should mantain in SPRO-Release procedure. Please clarify me is it possible through user-exit. I am worked on user-exit for release procedure based on purchasing group.
Thanks in advance.

Ranjan TiwariHi,
There is BADI ME_REQ_POSTED
in method POSTED you can write your code to trigger the workflow and get the information related to release strategy and
Purchase requisation .
for more than one PR use below logic .
LOOP at im_eban into gwa_im_eban .
concatenate gwa_im_eban-banfn gwa_im_eban-bnfpo into gwa_objkey .
add data into container -----------------
gwa_event_container-element = 'PurchaseRequisition'.
gwa_event_container-value = gwa_im_eban-banfn.
append gwa_event_container to gi_event_container.
clear: gwa_event_container.
gwa_event_container-element = 'ItemOfRequisition'.
gwa_event_container-value = gwa_im_eban-bnfpo.
append gwa_event_container to gi_event_container.
get the other details and create event to start workflow .
select single * from eban into lwa_eban where banfn = gwa_im_eban-banfn
and bnfpo = gwa_im_eban-bnfpo .
if sy-subrc <> 0 .
call function 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
exporting
objtype = 'BUS2009'
objkey = gwa_objkey
event = 'zcreated'
tables
event_container = gi_event_container
exceptions
objtype_not_found = 1
others = 2.
ENDLOOP .
Hope this will resolve your issue.

Purchase Requisition Release Procedure Modification
Hi
In Purchase Requisition Release, we have two deviations in business requirement from standard SAP behaviour:
1. In multistep release, system allows PR release to be revoked by a lower level release authorized person even though higher level release has been done. Example, PR Release has release codes A1, A2 and A3, A2 can revoke release even after A3 has released the same. How do I prevent this from happening?
2. If business requirement is to have release procedure based on item cost per unit and not on total value of the line item, how can this be achieved?
Appreciate any guidance on these issues
Thanks

Subscribed Movie Release calendar no longer working
Not sure when this happen, but iCal no longer displays movie releases. I deleted the subscribed Movies calendar and re-subscribed to it without any improvement.

This happens periodically with this particular calendar. You just have to wait awhile and eventually it will be updated. There are some other sites that offer one or two movie calendars. I've tried using some in the past but problems arose with them also.

Release Purchase Requisition - "Release strategy"
Hi there,
I am trying to release a purchase requisition. I looked in the table "EBAN" and i can see the entry or in other words, the requisition i created. In the Release indicator, Release status and Release strategy fields, these are empty. How do i add information to these fields which appear to have missing data?
Speedy repsponse would be very much appreciated.
Thanks

spro>Materials Management>Purchasing>Purchase Requisition>Release Procedure>Procedure with Classification>Set Up Procedure with Classification-->Release strategy
Select release strategy> Go to details>classification
here check what are the charactaristic and what are the values maintained for it
Check this for all release strategy
Mostly PR release strategy is based on Document type and PR Value
Check whether UR PR fits in release strategy criteria
Suppose Total value of requisition is maintained as 1000-2000
If UR PR value is less than 1000 Then PR will not subject to release

Release procedure for Purchase Requsition and especially f. a document type
Dear Experts,
how can I establish a release procedure. I need to set up the procedure
without classification. But it depends on a document type.
I have been to the customizing section with spro
Materials Management/Purchasing/Purchase Requisition/Release Procedure
and have choosen "Set up Procedure without classification. ".
But can I assign a document type and how is the handling generally with.
Release Codes
Release indicator
Assign Release Indicators
Release Points: Prerequisites
Determination of Release Strategy
Thanks
IlhanHi Ramesh,
You are saying:
"Click on the Release strategy button under item tabs". Where is this button.
All what I have is: Tab for "Material Data", "Quantities", "Valuation", "Account Assignment",
"Source of Supply", "Status", "Contact Person", "Texts","Delivery Adress", "Customer Data",
on calling of Tcode me54n I get immediatly a message
"Purchase Requisition 5000000131 can not be released" although I didn't enter any number in it
Why does it refer to a PR Nr. generally . I think it is pre-filled- How can I call this transaction without this message ? Or how can I call this transaction so that I can type in my own Purchase Rq-Nr.

Sites using TALEO for job searches no longer works in 19, worked in last official 18 release
Company websites which use the TALEO job search/apply app/site, no longer work right in 19, they worked fine in 18.xx. Specially, the job search function does not work right when entering the TALEO job search parameters then hitting SEARCH FOR JOB does nothing. AN example site (which does not require registration) is https://nielsen.taleo.net/careersection/3/jobsearch.ftl?lang=en. If I make selections for JOB FIELD and/or LOCATIOn then hit SEARCH FOR JOB, nothing happends. Sites using TALEO worked fine in the last offical 18.x release. TALEO worksd fine in IE 7&Chrome 25.
Clearing the cache does not change behavior. Finally did a full FF reset--no change.
WIN XP SP3 | Dell Dimension 4600 | 1.2 G RAMI am running Firefox version 19.0.2 and I have the same problem. I am able to filter using Internet Explorer which I really don't like. Rather than users having to figure out why this isn't working either Taleo needs to fix their scripts or a fix needs to happen in Firefox.
