Whether Item Level release is possible in PO [Purchase Order] ?

Hai SAP Gurus,
Whether Item Level release is possible in PO [Purchase Order] ?
Guide me..

Hi,
In std sap system its not possible...
You can release at header level only..
Recheck it from here:
SPRO >> MM >> Purchasing >> PO >> release procedure...
Here there is no option provided for item wise release,...

Item level release

Hi experts,

Hi,
Release Procedure
Use
You use this component if you wish to set up approval procedures for purchase requisitions or other purchasing documents. Under such a procedure, if a purchase requisition or external purchasing document fulfills certain conditions (e.g. the total order value exceeds $10,000), it has to be approved (by the cost center manager, for instance) before it can be processed further. This process of approving (clearing, or giving the "green light" to) a proposed item of expenditure is replicated in the SAP System by the "release procedure".
It is sensible to define separate release procedures for different groups of materials for which different departments are responsible, and to define separate procedures for investment goods and consumption goods.
Which Documents Can be Released (Approved)?
Release procedures can be defined for the following documents:
·     Purchase Requisition
·     The external purchasing documents purchase order (PO), contract, scheduling agreement, request for quotation (RFQ), and service entry sheet
Release Procedure for Purchase Requisitions
Two different procedures are available for requisitions:
·     With classification
With this procedure, requisitions can be released both at item level (i.e. item-by-item) and in total. The latter approach is also termed "overall release".
·     Without classification
With this procedure, requisitions can only be released at item level.
Release Procedure for External Purchasing Documents
External purchasing documents (i.e. purchasing documents other than requisitions) are released at header level. Item-by-item release is not possible. These documents can only be released using the release procedure with classification.

Hello Hari,
please set a breakpoint at function module
ME_REL_GET_RESPONSIBLE
and see what happends in section
    CASE t16fc-frgwf.
* keine Ermittlung
      WHEN space.
        RAISE nobody_found.
* Ermittlung über T16fW
      WHEN '1'.
If using the T16FW-table, it should go to '1', otherwise it may that a user exit under '9' is used. So please check this.

PR workflow for item level release (stock and non-stock)

Hello gurus,
I am not getting the agents.!!
I am creating a workflow for pr( item level release)..and using standard wf WS00000038 for this, as the standard wf contains the simple release procedure only but i have to add some custom steps to it, so i have copied this wf as custom wf .
In this wf i have to fetch the agents based on the "stock" and "non-stock items".
so i have maintained strategies and release code like:
i have maintained two strategies W1(non-stock) and W2(stock)..and release code for W1 are P1 and P2..here P1 i have given for my first level of approval and P2 for second level of approval.
The release code for W2 are P3 and P2..first level is P3 and second is P2.
so what i have did in a workflow , started with a condition step where i have given "releasecode = p1".. if yes than than it will go for getting approval from p1 , in this activity i am using standard rule 157.
The main thing is 1). i am not getting how to fetch agents using standard rule. 2)and how and where to define next level of approval for both stock and non-stock.
means by using condition step in the starting i am dividing workflow in two parts stock and non stock but how to proceed next.
i am really confused. should i use rules or write my own methods. please if anybody has gone through the same scenario than please suggest some points. i will really appreciate the help.
Kind Regards.

Hello HIM Joshi !
                   Include the task TS00007986 and all its branches and in a loop and loop around it for two times.When the loop goes for the first time, it should pick the first agent and during its second iteration, it should pick the second agent.
                   To accomplish so, In the same loop, but before the above task , include a background task which should populate the agent ids depending on stock and non-stock details and pass it to the the task TS00007986
                   That's all.

PR item level Release WorkFlow

Hi Experts,
I have activated PR item level release WorkFlow WS00000038. My MM consultant has configured release strategy with ME51N. The Work flow works fine On releasing it sends notification work item to initator but on release Refusal it don't send notification work item to initator. Can anyone guide me how to resolve this issue.
TS00007986 SINGLERELEASE
4 Outcomes of release
1) Positive Confirmation
2) Negative Confirmation
3) Confirmation Release Cancelled
4) Purchase requisition item significantly changed
Now 1) posative confirmation is working fine.
but when we reject release then in that case also the workflow log it is going in undefined output that is significantly changed.
can anyone help me to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Hari

Hi Hari,
When you reject a PR, 2 events are getting triggered (Significantly changed and rejection_started). You check this in Transaction SWEL by rejecting PR.
The reason why output is going to Significantly changed branch is in SWEL you can see that 1st Significantly changed event is getting triggered and then Rejection_started.
Solution1: Deactivate the Significantly changed event in termination events tab.
Solution2: Create an attribute(Database object) for your business object. This attribute should be of type EBAN-BANPR. Check if BANPR = 08 and then send the rejection mail.
I hope this clears your doubt.
Please Revert back to me if you have any queries.

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

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Hi,
There are two scenarios where the purchase order is created with zero value.
1. Standard Purchase order with Free tick indicator.
Whenever we expect a material with free of cost from vendor, we use to put the free indicator in item overview. This means the material is valuated at zero price irrespective of price control in material master. Quanitiy is updated while receipts.
Conditions tab in item detail doesnt appear.
2. Consignment PO.
While creating a purchase order for consignment, the system doesnt ask us the price and the condition tab doesnt appear in item detail.
An info record for consignment must be maintained before making the GR.
Hope i have clarified. If you want any further clarification. please do reply.

Logic required to findout "Release To Date" of the Purchase order

Hi
We are developing a custom program to release purchase orders as per clients requirements. In that, in the output, we need to display the "Release To Date" of the purchase order. Consider the release codes are R1,R2& R3, and currently the PO is released by R1, then we need to show "Release To Date" as R1. Simillerly once R2 also released the PO, we need to show "R1 R2" in the Release To Date field. This you can see in the Release Tab of the PO.
Now we need to adopt the same logic in our custom program also. Which table i can find the release to date details. The latest release code of the PO also good enough to build the logic to findout the "Release To Date"
Any pointers would be of great help.
Thanks
Venkat.

Processor of PR item level release strategy

Hi All,
I need to pass the Processor determined from an item level Purchase Requisition release strategy to a WF container. The event is RELEASESTEPCREATED in BUS2009. I have created an import element container called 'Processor' from ABAP dict. data type MEACTOR.
In the binding for the WF trigger RELEASESTEPCREATED I cannot bind the 'Processor' wf container to the Event Object.
What are the steps which I must follow to add the 'Processor' to the RELEASESTEPCREATED event?
The release strategy in SPRO for item level Purchase Req release is complete and the Set-up procedure for Workflow is complete.
Thanks
Mike

Hi,
Go to SWO1, enter BUS2009. Click on create subtype icon there. Then enter all fields as say ZBUS2009. Now save your new BO. then implement and release it , i.e;
Edit> Change Release Status> Object type> to implemented. Again Edit> Change Release Status> Object type> to Released. Then go to events in this objects. Click on event RELEASESTEPCREATED. Then click on event parameter and create a event parameter.
Hope this solves your problem.
Don't forget to delegate ZBUS2009 with BUS2009 in SWO6.
Let me know if you have any queries.

Net Price item in RFQ same as that in Purchase order

>The following is the client's requirement :-
>The user maintains all the values like basic price, discount, excise duty, educational cess, higher secondary educational cess, freight, packaging and forwarding, insurance, octroi etc in the request for quotation. But only the net price, discount, excise duty, educational cess, higher secondary educational cess are getting calculated in the net price and are available for price comparision. The other conditions maintained are not getting calculated in the RFQ.
>The user wants that the other conditions like freight, packaging and forwarding, insurance, octroi etc also should be calculated and added in the net price for price comparision when these conditions are maintained in RFQ through Tcode ME47.
>All these conditions get calculated in the purchase order at item level. Hence the value of the item in Purchase order is greater than the value of the item in the RFQ and there is a difference between the RFQ value and the Purchase Order value at item level.
>The user want that the price of the item in RFQ should exactly match with the price of the item in the Purchase Order.
>Whether this requirement can be met in standard SAP. If yes then what are the configuration settings to be done for the same.
>Thanks in advance.
>AJ

The pricing procedure called in RFQ comes from the price condition.
You can check the same in M/06. The procedure is maintained in the customization for condition type.
for eg. if you enter price for PB00 then check the setting in M/06

Meaning when I create the PO with this material, SAP automatically fills this field with the revision information from the material master?
Thanks
