Dear Gurus,
I have created a release procedure for Purchase Order.Now i created a Contract , it also asking for release.I dont know y its happening??
Is ter any link between Po release and Contract Release??
Plz Explain ....
Thanks in advance...........
The only possibility is that yuo have added the Document types for the Contract in the release strategy. Once you remove the MK WK from the release strategy prepare the new contract. Do not use the older contract as when it was made the release strategy was active. the new effects will take place with the new contracts in the system.

Hi,
It is mandatory to add purchasing document type as part of your release strategy to differentiate release strategy for PO, contract and scheduling agreement. If not specified, then the release procedure applies to all of these.

Hi,
Create a Characteristic for document type.
While creating, in the additional data tab, specify table name as CEKKO and the field name as BSART. Add the document types in the Values tab.
Now link the characteristic to the release class. Retrigger the release strategy and save.
create a new contract and check whether it is undergoing release procedure.
the document types specified in the Procedure will only undergo approval process.

Hi,
Whatever document types you give in release procedure will undergo Approval process.
Since you have given MK & WK, your contract has been blocked for release. Unless it is released, it cannot be used for further transactions, say creation of PO.
Tcode to release contract is ME35K.
Release it using your release group & release codes, Afterwhich you will be able to create PO with contract reference.
If you donot want contract to undergo release procedure, please do not mention WK or MK in values for doc characteristics. Give the document type of PO alone. Say NB (standard PO)

IMG-Materials Management-Purchasing-Contract-Release Procedure for Contracts-Define Release Procedure for Contracts.
Here you can see the same release group which is defined for PO also.Check whether there is any new group defined for contratcs and also check the class assigned to that release Group in CL02 and then try to check what char values are defined in that class.There check whether if your contract document type is used or what if used , then you remove the class assignment from that release group.
Hi,
As yo say that contract is been asked to release, you have included the document types of contract in your release procedure.
SPRO->materials management->purchasing->purchase orders-> release procedure for purchase order->Edit class.
Check the characteristics you have added for document types. You must have added WK or MK in it. Please delete those document types. Add only purchase order document type(NB-Standard) and try creating a new contract and check.

Hi,
Release strategy configured for PO will be applicable for all the Purchasing documents i.e. RFQ , PO , Contract & SA. If you don't want the release strategy for the contracts , add a characteristic of Document type to the release strategy.Based upon this you can trigger your release strategy to the documents as required by you.
