Types of release strategy's?

Hi Guys
what are the types of release strategy?
other than value based what else criteria does the release strategy can be made?
could you please share some of your real time strategy's followed by your company.
Any answers would be greatly appreciated.
cheers

what are the types of release strategy?
Ther is no types but based on the requirements you can create the release strategy
It's not neccesary that you can creta only value based but you can use for any purpose as long as you want to control your PO or PR or any purchase document go out without any supervision in this case you can create based on the field avilabe for release strategy
e.g. for PO you can use any field from CEKKO table and for PR - CEBAN table
i have scenario in one of my project is i don;t want my PR should directly go to purchasing without label approvla in this case the price was not creiteria but the material group was the criteri like wise you can use any criteria to hold the document go without approval

  • 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.

  • Release Strategy for Condition Records

    Hi,
    This is a requirement from my client. The client needs to give 4 levels of release strategy for the condition records created. The selling price for the products will be entered by person 1. This has to be approved by the sales execute (person 2); then by the sales manager (person 3); finally by the General Manager (Person 4). The selling price of the products ranges from 10 lakhs to 40 lakhs. so, the release strategy is needed. This type of release strategy is available in MM for PR and PO. Please let me know whether similar facility is available in SD. Any alternative is also solicited.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your valuable reply.
    I defined 3 Processing status (Menu path: SPRO >> SD >> Basic Fn >> Pricing >> Define Processing status). They are EU-End user, KU-Key user, MD-Final authority. These processing statuses are assigned to Release status. First two processing status EU, KU were assigned to A (Blocked). The third processing status MD was assigned to Blank (Released). The purpose is: at processing status EU one person will upload the price master. Second person will check the price and will change the processing status to KU if he satisfies with the accuracy of the price master. The third person (final authority) will check the price and set the Processing status MD. Once the condition record gets the status MD, the prices can be used for creating sales order because it is released.
    In the condition record for PR00, when I enterthe processing status  EU or KU the release status shows 'Blocked' release statuses. When I enter MD in the processing status, the release status show 'released'.
    My question is how can assign the responsibilities of changing the processing statuses EU to KU, KU to MD to two different persons.

  • MIR7 doesn't get PO and PO release strategy

    I can see PO item 10, 10000 MYR in ME23N, and it is already released.
    In MIR7, PO reference tab, I put PO number and item number, but mesages says no item number. and it didn't populate item from PO.
    what's the reason?
    also I create PR and released PR, but when I run ME59N and input PR number, it says  No suitable purchase requisitions found
    Message no. ME261? I can't generate PO automatically. I have to use ME21N, what's the wrong with my system?
    I tried one purchase group and PO can't be released, but when I change purchase group, it is ok, may i know the SPRO configuration to define certain purchase group for release strategy?
    also how can we set certain PO document type with release strategy and some PO document type without release strategy ?

    Hello
    For first question, Please check in the PO line item level Invoice tab, whether GR based invoice verification is checked. If yes, then system will allow you perform MIR7 after Goods receipt.
    Second question:
    ME59N should display the open PRs for PO creation. Please cross check once agian the input selection parameters.
    Third Question
    Yes, you can configure the Release procedure based on Purchasing document type/Pur group. You need to define the paramter as Charactetristic and assign to the Release class.

  • Release Strategy in purchase order document type

    Hi Gurus..
    I'm tring to tweak the single RS in the system.
    I've set the charcteristic using table CEKKO field BSART, restriction 032, I've set two document types as the Characteristic Value (ZLOG - ZADM). Then I´ve set the class with this characteristic, Created Release Groups & linked to class , Created Release Codes, Release Indicator, and Set up strategies
    .. but  It doesn´t pick any release strategy.
    The funny thing is if I delete the document types values entered in CL20N it works for all doc typs, but if I set the docs types that it should take to pick the RS it doesn't work at all...
    Please advice..

    I´m not such a abapper but I guess there is not values taken to ekko, does it ring a bell?

  • Retriggering Release strategy for PR with Document Type, Company Code and Price Range as Characaterstics

    Hi Friends,
    I have a issue to fix. The issue is releated to PR.
    There are some PR's in the system which has wrong release strategy picked up or wrong approvers picked up due to some congif change. now that the config changes are rectified correctly, we need to find a solution to correct the PR's which got affected due this.
    I have to retrigger the release strategy for all the affected PR's.
    The characterstics which we have consider for release strategy is Document Type, Company Code and Price Range.
    Can anyone suggest how can we retrigger the PR in bulk or individual to all the affected PR's, so that it picks up correct release strategy as per new config changes.
    Regards,
    Manjunath K

    Hi,
    Refer the discussion to triggers release again on release code addition/change in release strategy.
    release code is changed on PR release strategy - old PR can´t be approved

  • Release strategy against material type

    Hi
    Our customer requires a separate to group of people to release Raw Material POs and a person to release Spare Parts related POs. How can I set release strategy according to material type?

    Hi,
    These 2 purchases (Raw Mat & Spare Parts), are they being purchased by the same Purchasing Group?
    If different, you can use Purchasing group as a classification in your release strategy.
    Or Material Groups as a classification?
    Currently, i dont know if there is a way to differentiate between material types in PO for your release classification.
    Maybe you can use Exit to control CEBAN-USRC1 where, It includes the first few characters of your material number range.
    Im assuming that you have:
    1) SP001001 for Spare parts
    2) RM001001 for Raw Materials
    So you can use SP, for Spare parts release strategy and RM for Raw Materials Release Strategy.
    Im not sure if this works, just an idea.

    check UB is existing or not in the existing characteristics or any combination characteristics stops you.
    you need to create a characteristic with CEKKO--BSART and assign the same in your class and further use this characteristic in your release strategy.

  • Shoul order type be part of release strategy or WF logic?

    Hi,
    In our release strategy for purchase order we have set up anything that is > £500 needs approving. This kicks of the standard PO wf, but the workflow should also only start if the order type = NB or 8000.
    Can anyone tell me if the order type should be part of the release strategy or the workflow logic?
    Thanks
    Forhad

    Hi,
    See its purely based on the requirement, if you maintain at the release strategy level then the release strategy itself will not be available for those kind of PO's.
    so its better to restrict this at Wf level thru start conditions.

  • PR Release Strategy for DOCUMENT TYPE

    Hi Gurus,
    I have created a Document Type in PR & I want to set a Release Startegy for ONLY that Document Type.
    Can anybody explain me step by setp procedure for this ?, I have gone thru one link :
    http://www.sap123.com/showthread.php?t=59
    but I could not set the relase startegy. May be I am missing something ??
    Thanks & Regards,
    Vikas

    If you want to define the release strategy only for doc type
    then
    create the class using CL02
    create the chra for Doc type using CT04  - the table is CEBAN and the field is BSART
    then assign the doc type value in char (after you create the char then go back and assign the value)
    now assign your char to your class
    now go to SPRO and goto PR release strategy config -  procedure with classification
    go to Set Up Procedure with Classification
    create your release group by assigning the calss you have created (make sure this config should have only one class)
    create release code
    release indicator is already exist in sap so you don;t need to create
    create your release strategy and assign the value in classification tab of release strategy
    this will work
    but make sure that - if you are creating only for doc type means all the reqs created for this doc type will be blocked by the system. so if you have reqs like if this doc type and the amount >5000 then only block then you have to have amount is also you char in your class
    hope this will give you a cleat idea

  • PR overall release strategy (with shared PR document types)

    We are asked to configure 'overall' PR release for some of the plants of our client.Now ,we know,  this needs to be configured in two places in SPRO. One, in release group definition & two, document type (PR) definition. Our issue is that the doc types involved here is shared by some other plants as well who doesn't need 'overall' release. Is it possible to configure the requirement without disturbing the unwilling plants ?

    Hi ,
    The PR release strategy can be done at Item level also ,which has to be set that the PR has to be released at item level and after doing it ,all the item values can become characteristics values for the release strategy
    The Plant can be taken as one of the characteristic.
    The view CEBAN gives all the related views.
    check the below LInk for Futher information on the same.
