Hi All,
I have the following requirement/scenario
1. If PO is created manually no reference to PR, then the PO needs to be approved through a release strategy.
2. If the PO has been created automatically either from a req or through SRM (for,eg) then the PO needs to be approved only if this PO has been changed. So this would need to go through a second release strategy.
To distinguish between the two, we are using Version number field CEKKO-REVNO in the communication structure CEKKO to be a characteristic in the release strategy.
This is what I hoped for would work after doing the necessary config,
For create PO's, in my classification I have CEKKO-REVNO as >=0. So any PO whose version number is >=0, will trigger relase strategy S1 (for e,g).
For change PO's in my classification I have CEKKO-REVNO > 0 And whenever you change PO, it will generate versions 1,2,3 and so on, and hence the release strategy will trigger.
The problem
Whenever I use CEKKO-REVNO as one of my characteristics, the release strategy is not triggered at all no matter what the conditions are on the PO. When i removed the REVNO from my classification, release strategy is getting triggered as per plan. I have also activated version management and done all the necessary config. I would like to know why release strategy is not getting triggered when REVNO field is used from communication structure CEKKO. Have any of you experienced this issue before??
Is their any other identifier I can use to address the requirement above? Let me know.
Thanks
Ashvin
