PO re-release

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have an issue. When i am reducing the quantity in ME22N to short-close the PO, the PO goes for release.

What could be reason which allows re-release when I am REDUCING the Po qty and value?

Plz help.

Hi,

Let me explain to you. If you have 3 release strategies namely,

1. 0-100 rs

2. 100-500 rs

3. more than 500

So if your PO is created with 1000 rs & 50 qty system will trigger the 3rd release strategy. for that you have done GR & IV for 10 pieces. Now if you try to close the PO the value becomes zero and the 1st release comes to effect. This is how release works.

Thanks.

Any way to come out of this problem so that it should not triggered again for approval.

Please lock the PO with the Lock button in the item level. your PO will be short closed.

Hi,

If you have created the release procedure with total net order value and If you are changing the value of the PO system will automatically go for re-release.So you can lock the line item so that it will be closed & GR cannot be done.Hope it helps.

Thanks for the response.

Let me explain you the issue -

I have made the PO for 100 pieces - > PO Approved - > GR done for 10 Pieces -> IR done for 10 Pieces.

Now i tried to short close the PO as there will not be any more purchase against the PO.

When i did the same, its triggered for Approval.
