Change in Purchase Order Release Strategy Values

Former Member

Dear All,

I am in process of changing Purchase Order release strategy values.

I have following release strategy -

Current Value (Proposed Value)

Level 1 - Upto INR 0.1 Mn (Proposed value - Upto 1.0 Mn)

Level 2 - From 0.11 Mn to 0.5 Mn (Proposed Value - From 1.01 Mn to 5.00 Mn)

Level 3 - From 0.51 Mn to 1.0 Mn (Proposed Value - From 5.01 Mn to 10.0 Mn)

Level 4 - Above 1.0 Mn (Proposed Value - Above 10.0 Mn)

My questions are -

1) Will this change affect the existing Purchase Orders (already created) which are not yet released?

2) Will this change affect the existing Purchase Orders (already created) which are released?

3) Are there any risk factors?

Can you pl. put light on above questions?

Regards,

Prashant Kolhatkar

Hi,

Actually, what you had given is not enough to determine if the existing PO will be impacted or not

If you are just changing the classification but not changing the number of release level of the release code in the release strategy, the partial released PO will not be impacted unless there's PO changes. PO that are released will definitely not be impacted unless there are changed.

In general, after a release strategy is determined for PO, SAP will retrieve the latest list of release code of that release strategy for display for that PO. If this list never change (mean you only change classification of the release strategy), then they will not be apparent to the user. But if this list change (you add new release code, replace existing release code or remove release code), then you will see some discrepency on screen as you will only see the modified list of release code and not the old list of release code

Hope this help

Hi,

Yes, This will affect existing PO document also . the same will applied for rerelase.

then all the PO document which are not yet released & Released till Printout not done also will affect this.

You have to ensure with this all privious Not yet release & release doc release if re set.

check your organization consequences.

Hi,

Does it mean that the purchase orders need to be fully released before I change the release strategy?

Hi,

Yes..

Even if you have unprocessed POs & Open PO also will affect agais-nst based on your Release indicator "6"setting.

If have rel. indicator "5" it won't change after PO outputted.
