Hi,

In standard Release strategy if one Releasing Authority want to refuse release or reject the PO he can do so by clicking the "Reject" (Release Refuse) button in ME29N. By this the Po will remain in unreleased status .

Hi,

That would be better if you can create a queru with EKKO and EKPO with release indicator and comnpany code etc as input fields would be fine at SQ01/SQVI.

You can for a workflow with proper release indicators.

Refer the below OSS Note..

Hi Mallinath,

as i see this note says something about EDI etc. Do you know if it is usable whatsoever? I am just talking about standard release with ME28/ME29N and standard workflow implemented.

thank you

That Note is applicable when you implement standard Workflow for PO, where there is a correction as explained.

I have mentioned that note like which is the case which can be implemented during PO release workflow.

Hi,

The information on rejection of Po release you can find in ME2N by selecting the field "Purchasing Document Processing State" in Dynamic selection .Here give the option 08 (Rejected ). The Pos for which release rejected will come.

You can get the list of Rejected PO (Rejected in release strategy) in ME2N - go to dynamic selection - Purchasing doc header - Purch.doc.Proc.state - select 8(Rejected) - add required parameters and save - it will take u to varient creation page. Add varient name and description and save.

Now go to ME2N - varient (u can see created vaient select that and execute.

If you want table reports .

Go to SE16N

Table name - EKKO.

Select field - PROCAST (technical name ) - select 08(Rejected)

Pass required company code , Purch org, etc and execute .

Hi,

Wheather you reject/reverse the PO , system will capture either released / blocked .

Hi,

This is a standard scenario . when ever a PO is rejected , this will come into blocked again and the changes will get updated in the header changes of the PO .

System will allow to reverse an acce[pted PO at ME29N always by pressing the another indicator ( inverse arrow )

If you go to the release indicator for Purchase Order, then you can see only two status

Either Released tick or untick.

There are no status is Rejected.

Hence, as of my knowledge, you can't use the facility in standard.
