Purchase Order Authorization (Urgent)

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Scenario - The purchasing dept, wants to set a limit upto which the purchasers can issue a PO, without needing further authorizations. But say if the value of PO exceeds X, then the PO would need a further authorization before it can be saved & printed. Also can i do a check, line by line for the value or is it only possible with the total value of PO? Where in customizing can i do this?

Hi Vivek,

Your scenario can be addressed through Release Strategy in SAP. Howsoever, Release Strategy in PO is at Header Level not at Line item level.

Hi Muralidhara,

Thanks for the inputs, is there any document, which explains in brief about the steps i should take to configure the same, with an example? I know i should CT04 to create a characteristic, CL02 to create class & then use OMGS. But not very sure how to go about it. Any inputs would be helpful.
