Wrong Release strategy in purchase order

Hi,
I have a specific purchase order with wrong release strategy.
I had been creating others documents with the same total value and the release strategy work correctly.
The release strategy configuration are right.
How I can correct the release strategy in a specific document?
Thanks.
Best Regards.

Hi,
The release strtegy is basically conssitss of Different type of characters.
What characters you are highlighting plays in release strategy.
First you comapre the characters you mentioned in two purchase orders,
eg: p.org, Pur Grp, Value,------
o to bith release strategies and compre the things or characters you mentioned Release strategy and found wher you missed to get the required Strategy.
SPRO>>MM>>Purchase order>>Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>>Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders>>Click on release strategies
Select your release strategy and go to Classification , here you chck the parameters in both release strategies and compare with your purchase orders.

Release Strategy in Purchase Order

Hi,
Can any explain the usage of Release Strategy in Purchase Order.
ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
Release strategy works the same way in purchasing documents (i.e. PR and PO). It is a form of control that company use to control the purchases made.
In your scenario, a PO release strategy is used to control the PO release status for Good Receipt process. Once the PR is released by the relevant releaser, you will see that the PR is now unblocked for issuance of PO.
Once the PO is issued with reference to the PR, it is now blocked again by a release strategy for user to perform Goods Issue. The releaser will evaluate the PO issued and determine if it is necessary to be released for GR / Service Acceptance process. At this stage, the releaser can still reject the PO although issued, and hence GR / Service Acceptance is not able to be performed. Different value will trigger different set of release strategy with different level of approvals, depending on how the PO release strategy is configured by the MM functional consultant. Usually, the PO release strategy has a flatter approving level as compared to PR release strategy, reason being that once the PR has been fully released by all releaser and the PO issued, usually the purchase is deemed necessary and PO releaser would usually consider to release the PO for GR or Service Acceptance process, unless there is discrepancy or sudden change in decision of Management.
Hence, all in all, the PO release strategy act as another form of control to the company to restrict the release of PO for GR or Service Acceptance.
Hope this will give u a better understanding on the function of a PO release strategy.

You can go to SE16N view table name EKKO
FRGKE   Release ind. = B
FRGZU   Release status = <blank>
mean, this PO yet to approve/ rejected.
FRGKE   Release ind. = R
FRGZU   Release status = X

Relation between Version and Release Strategy at Purchase Order level

Our requirement is as follows:-
Case: "Document Type" + "Purchase Group"+ "Price-A" ==== Release Strategy "XX" , and it got release by approving authority "YY"
now, if i edit the vallue of above case to "Price-B", in such a case a new release strategy should trigger and it should go to approving authority "ZZ" in all the cases
Price-A can be equal to Price- B, Less than or greated than.
I come to know that, to acheive this we need to activate the version management, MM>>Purchassing>>Verion managemet>>for external document ( Here i have maintaned the veriosn for "F", and "Dcoument type" for "Purchase Org"
Now the issue is when i created the version with REVNO and CEKKO table, and when i maintain the version for the release strategy , system dont show the tab of release strategy in PO screen, means release strategy is not getting applied on the PO,
and when i delete the version condition, we can see the release strategy tab in the PO.
Thanks in advance,
Vikas Rander.

Deputy on Release strategy of Purchase Order

Hi,
We had the following below release strategy to configure
For value greater then 5000 the approvers will be
At First Level approver(User) A1 or his deputy (User) Approver A2
At second level Approvers(User) will be A3 or his deputy A4
At third level Approver (User) will be A5 or his deputy A6.
Can we customize this type of PO release startegy. I had seen and found that we cannot have approvers as deputy in release startegy, correct me if I am wrong.
I thought to configure in below way
At First Level let the Approver Release code be X1
At Second Level let the Approver Release code be X3
At third Level let the Approver Release code be X5
Assign these Release codes to the Approvers user id as well as to there deputy
For e.g. if for first level the approver (user is ) A1 and its deputy (user) A2 then assign this Release code to both of them so that either of them can release the PO.
Is there any other way to configure this scenario.
Also one more thing the approver(User) A1 can also create the PO. So when he create the PO then the approver should not be he himself it should be new approvers that is
At first Level approver(User) A7 or his deputy Approver A2
At second level Approvers will be A3 or his deputy A4
At third level Approver will be A5 or his deputy A6.
Please suggest you valuable inputs on this.
Thanks
Shashi

The scenario you have explained is possible with alternative release procedure where you can set the release prerequisit based on your reqs but the second scenario you have explained which required workflow functionality with org management than only you can have
so if you are planning to use the workflow than use th user eixt M06E0005
to identify the role and level.

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?

Hi,
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.
An example of configuring a Purchase Order Release Strategy
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.
Steps for configuring the PO release strategy
Create the PO Characteristic
Transaction code : CT04 - Create Characteristic e.g. NETVALUE
Click Additional data tabstrips
Table name CEKKO Field name GNETW and press enter and you will see this information message :-
Format data taken from Data Dictionary (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 tabsritps (X refers to tick),
X Mutliple values
X Interval values
In the Value data, in the Char. value column, type >=10000 (equal or greater than 10000) and press enter
Save your data
Create the Class of the PO Release Strategy
Transaction code : CL02 - Class
Class - Create REL_PUR
Class type - 032
Click Create button
Description - Release Procedure for Purchase Order
In the Same Classification section, click Check with error
In the Char. (characteristic) tabstrips, type NETVALUE to assign your characteristics to the class
Save your data and this message will appear :-
Class type 032: Class REL_PUR created
Define the Release Procedure
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
Save your entries.
Release codes - New entries
Grp Code
02 01
Save your entries.
Release indicators - New entries
Release indicators Release Description
0 Blocked
1 X Release
Save your entries
Release Strategy - New entries
Release group 02
Rel.strategy 01 - Release
Release codes 01
Release status 0 - Blocked
1 - Release
Click the Release prerequisities button
Click the Relase statuses button the click the Continue button
Click the Classification button
Choose your check values
Click the Back button
Save your entries
Check your PO release configuration
Finally, check your PO Release Strategy configuration to make sure that there are no errors.
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.

Mohar

Actually the tcode for releasing purchase order is ME28
Reward points if useful.

Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders

Hi Friends,
We are changing Release procedure for purchase orders for one department from > $ 5000 to > $ 10000.
We defined three characteristics for the class namely Purchasing Order Document, Purchasing Order Type and Ner Order Value which is Currency data type. I Defined Release Procedure for Purchase Orders in configuration master. It's working fine, I mean the Net order Value field is updated in Configuration Client.
After transporting the above change to the Testing Client, the Net Order Value field did not update in testing Client even though I created Characteristics in Testing Client (as characters are not transportable, I created them seperately in Testing Client). I can't update the Net Order Value manually in Testing Client as it says "Client 010 (test) has status 'not modifiable' "
Please tell me how to update that field, as the net order value didn't change even after transport. I can't change manually in testing Client as the status is "not modifiable"

Hi,
Yes I have already done that.
In SPRO,
After hitting the following:-
MM --> Purchasing --> Purchase Order --> Release Procedure for Purchase Orders --> Define Release procedre for Purchase Orders
I have to process the objects in the following sequence,
Release Group, Release Code, Release Indicator, Release Strategy & Workflow.
Upto Release Indicator it is fine. After hitting Release Strategy, I should select the release strategy (which I just created) and display. Then 4 buttons will be displayed namely,
Release Prerequisites, Release statuses, Classification, Release simulation.
Upto Release statuses it's fine. Afeter hitting Classification,
the values of Purchase document & Order type are populated, but the Total Net Order Value is Blank. It is supposed to populate the amount & 10,000. But it is not.
Actually that amount will be stored in the field GNETW of table CEKKO. But CEKKO is a Structure not a table. So I can't update the field.
Please advice me...
Thank You,
Nag

Release strategy in sales order is required before MRP run

Hi Experts,
My requirement is Release strategy in sales order is required before MRP run. My client is doing the following process:
1) Creation of Sale order (MTO). Ex: User creates 10 sale orders per day.
2) MD04- Stock Requirement List. All 10 Sale orders should be displayed. So no problem here.
3) MD50-Make to order-Planning . Here when user gives the sale order number and sale order item and press enter, then only the released sale orders should be allowed and the rest sale orders it should throw a error message and it should not allow to process further.
How this situation can be addressed in SAP.
Kindly post some hints and comments.
Regards,
Kiran.

Hi Kiran,
Define and Assign status profile BS02 at sales order detail (line item) lets say with create and release status
SD>Sales>Sales documents>Define and assign status profile
Have create status as default while creating SO with item
And do a user exit change for MD50 with ABAP consultant help and release it when user keys in SO and item.
For other line item I believe it will give an error
Pls try and update if it solves your requirment

Siva

Redetermine release strategy for purchasing requisitions

Hi Guys,
How can I redetermine the release strategy for purchasing requisions when changes on the costcenter (EBKN-KOSTL) are done -
I know that it will be redermined when I add the costcenter as charateristics in customizing for release strategy but thats not an option
I also tried to add coding in userexit for changing the communication strategy (Include ZXM06U13) but this exit doesn't provide information of the document number and position (EBAN, EBKN ..) so I can't find out if changes have been made
I spend several hours trying to find solutions for this issue but no working results so far ..
I hope you can help me on that
TIA
Manuel

Hi,
Note that EBKN will have entries corresponding to a PR only when it is
saved or checked, so KOSTL will not have any values for a PR which is under
creation. You should always use fields from structure CEBAN while
creating characteristics for Requisition release procedure as it
contains most of the relevant data about a PR under creation/change.
I would advice you to check the note 365604.
Please also check the changeability indicator in the customizing:
transaction OLME -> Purchase Requisitions -> Release Procedure -> Procedure with Classification -> Set Up Procedure with Classification -> Release indicator -> check the detail screen for settings.
Please check additionally the possible values for your characteristic cost centre (transaction CT04).
Regards,
