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

hi sandesh,
sorry, i know it's too late.
i tried your suggestion, it works blocking the purchase order after release strategies are setted.
sandesh, raghavan:
i need to reset the strategies after to make any change in the po. i'll appreciate your help if you can give it.

Why should I recompile report for any changes in the database ?

Hi All
I call a report (.rep) from a form using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, and everything is OK
For any change in the database, for example :
1- Export Dump file for the schema.
2- Drop the schema
3- Re-create the schema again
4-Import the taken dump to the schema
When i call the report again, the report doesn't run. If i recompile the report again it will work.
I read too much posts about this issue, most of them are taLking about the command line parameter RECURSIVE_LOAD=NO ,
v_url :=' COMPANY_NO='||:global.company_no|| ' RECURSIVE_LOAD=NO';
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,v_url);
But , Still the problem not solved
Notes :
1- The report type is .REP
2- if I used the .JSP report, it is working fine , But i can't copy the source code for the report at the customer side.
Please Help

Well, first of all this would not be the correct forum. There is a dedicated reports forum for reports related questions. And secondly this most certainly depends on your report. If you have a query like
select * from my_tableor e.g. are using %rowtype records in your report then you most certainly will have to recompile it after you do an exp/imp.

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

Cannot reset release strategy for RFQ

Dear SAP gurus,
I set release procedure for RFQ. I set anyway that the changeability is 6, and the tolerance is zero. I expect that after it is released, whenever anyone is changing everything the release strategy will be reset.
But this is not happening. In my case, the manager already approve the RFQ but the RFQ has not been sent yet. Then someone change the quantity of the RFQ, and the release strategy is not reset. When I check again I realize that changeability 6 means the release will be reset if the value is changed; while in RFQ there is no value mentioned anywhere, it means that the release strategy for RFQ will never be reset.
Do i miss something? Is there any way to make sure that the release for RFQ is reset if someone change anything in the RFQ?
Best regards,
John.

Why are you having a value based release in RFQ? And more important, why do you need release for RFQ?
However, if you still want to go ahead with release, then you need to use the user exit for purchasing document release to achieve your objective. Please search for my earlier posts on how to reset release even on decrease of PO value. You can use the same logic for RFQ also.

Release Strategy for New & Change PO's - Using characteristic CEKKO-REVNO

Hi All,
I have the following requirement/scenario
1. If PO is created manually no reference to PR, then the PO needs to be approved through a release strategy.
2. If the PO has been created automatically either from a req or through SRM (for,eg) then the PO needs to be approved only if this PO has been changed. So this would need to go through a second release strategy.
To distinguish between the two, we are using Version number field CEKKO-REVNO in the communication structure CEKKO to be a characteristic in the release strategy.
This is what I hoped for would work after doing the necessary config,
For create PO's, in my classification I have CEKKO-REVNO as >=0. So any PO whose version number is >=0, will trigger relase strategy S1 (for e,g).
For change PO's in my classification I have CEKKO-REVNO > 0 And whenever you change PO, it will generate versions 1,2,3 and so on, and hence the release strategy will trigger.
The problem
Whenever I use CEKKO-REVNO as one of my characteristics, the release strategy is not triggered at all no matter what the conditions are on the PO. When i removed the REVNO from my classification, release strategy is getting triggered as per plan. I have also activated version management and done all the necessary config. I would like to know why release strategy is not getting triggered when REVNO field is used from communication structure CEKKO. Have any of you experienced this issue before??
Is their any other identifier I can use to address the requirement above? Let me know.
Thanks
Ashvin

Thanks Charlie for your response.
The conditions in the PO is not equal.
On one occasion when I create the PO, I have given the classification as REVNO >=0 with a document type ZB for create (S1). So when I create the PO manually, the version starts with 0, so condition should satisfy here
On the other when I change the PO (with/without reference to PR), I have given the classification as REVNO as > 0 with document type ZC (S2), so when the PO is created initially it will not satisfy strategy S1 as doc type is different for S1. When I change the PO created with ref to req, S2 should take into effect because when i change the version will change to 1 and S2 should trigger because REVNO is > 0 and doc type matches.
So I dont know where the release strategy matches in both S1 & S2 for the system to not propose the release startegy.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks for your feedback.

Release Strategy for Credit Note un the QM Module

Good SAP Guru's,
I have a very important question for you:
Is it possible within in the QM module (Transaction QM12) to implement a Release Strategy based on the value of the credit note to be created.
This should work on the same lines as the Purchase Order Release strategy.
Any guide lines and/or assistance will be gratefully appreciated.
Kind regards,
Leslie

Dear Leslie
We had done a similar kind of development in notification, not for credit memo though , but certainly can be incorporated in this case.We had done this for approving Short shipment and devaitions. If there has to be short shipment to be sent to a customer a notification will be trigered to manager and if he approves it will go for higher approval.
Please find my suggestion for this development
1) Make 3 task codes. for eg Task 1 for credit note is for less than u20AC500.00 . Task 2one for more than 501 and Task 3other one for more than 2001.
2) According the need of the credit notes to be created let the user assign the task and release it.
3) For task no 2 and task No3 a workflow triggers to the corresponding roles Sales manager & General Manager. ( please note that notifications are workflow freindly and standard workflows are available for the same)
4) if Manager wants to approve he can make the Task Complete. ( Notification tasks have 4 stages, outstanding, release, complete, Succussful)
5) Based on the status of the task you can make use of the action box in notification for creating the credit memo.
6) The credit memo creation will have to be developed. You will have to get ABAP support for this. They can either do it through user exit, or call transaction , and incorporate the same in the Action box of notification. (QQMA0001: User Subscreen for Notification Header, QQMA0014 Checks before saving notification )
please let me know your apprehensions

Program for mass change in the sales order.

Hi,
I have a requirement where If we make changes in the availability check rule of the material master(for e.g. 02 to 01),then the same rule should be changed in the sales order as well.
Though this will be changed for the new orders but is there any program which we can run manually or in the background in order to make changes in the old sales orders.
Regards
Karan

How to set default value for Price Change Indicator in Purchase order

My plsql parameter is p_arr which is of "TYPE vc2_255_arr IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(255) INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER"You need to declare it in a package specification and initialize in the package body:
SQL> create or replace package pmp_lib
as
 type vc2_255_arr is table of varchar2 (255)
 index by binary_integer;
 vc2_255_arr_default vc2_255_arr;
end pmp_lib;
Package created.
SQL> create or replace package body pmp_lib
as
begin
 vc2_255_arr_default (1) := 'abc';
 vc2_255_arr_default (2) := 'def';
end pmp_lib;
Package body created.
SQL> declare
 arr pmp_lib.vc2_255_arr := pmp_lib.vc2_255_arr_default;
begin
 for i in 1 .. arr.count
 loop
 dbms_output.put_line (arr (i));
 end loop;
end;
abc
def
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.so in your case it would probably be sth like (assuming pmp_lib is a package):
<%@ plsql parameter="p_arr" type="PMP_LIB.VC2_255_ARR" default = "PMP_LIB.vc2_255_arr_default" %>

Hi Experts,
At present the release strategy configured is for any change in the value of the purchase order, the release strategy is reset. Now the the client wants that for even any text change of a word, text, quantity, value, addition, deletion the release strategy should be reset.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Diwakar,
I too have the same problem. I tried with Changeable indicator "1". The system does not allow to make any change to the Purchase Order even after the first level of Release. But the requirement is that the system should Reset the Release Strategy for even minor Change in the PO.

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

BAdI or USEREXIT for changing data of purchase order header - ME21N

hello all,
I would like to ask you any way to change the field "reason for change" of the Purchase Order header.
I tried implementing the method PROCESS_HEADER of IF_EX_ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST
or changing reason_code of structure ekko in user exits EXIT_SAPMM06E_006 and EXIT_SAPMM06E_006
but it seems not to work.
How can i do?..

..same thing for this solution...
the field that i want to change is RSCOD inside structure EREVGRID...it seems to have also get_data and set_data methods ( IF_REVISION_ITEM_DCM ),
but I don't know which BAdI to implement that has a object type ref to EREVGRID...

Need to get the Last Changed date in Purchase Order.

Dear Experts,
I need to get a table which stores the last/ latest change for a Purchase Order.
For a Purcahse Order, last date Changes need to be captured , where there was some sort of activity associated with that order. That activity could be a goods receipt, an invoice payment or a change to the Purchase order.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can use EKPO-AEDAT.
Tables CDHDR and CDPOS contain what chnages you have made.
Thanks,
