PO Strategy

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to set the items in PO EKPO-LOEKZ field to 'S' after the PO is approved. After we make a few checks, we unset the field 'S' and this causes the strategy
to be restarted, but this can not happen. I need the PO to remain approved.

How can I resolve this?

I can not change the release indicator that, in this case is 4.

Please help me,

Thanks,

This is not a std behavior of the system..

Do debug with help of your ABAPER after blocking the PO line item.

And check from where this function is getting called after saving the PO.

Which is resetting the PO release strategy.

What are all the characteristics used in PO release strategy ?

javascript:; javascript:;I can not change the release indicator that, in this case is 4.

Are you talking about changeability indicator 4 here?

Also check LOEKZ is relevant for Print change fields

Hi Raja Ramasamy,

I used this characteristics:

And for our scenario, I can't change this.

LOEKZ isn't relevant for Print.

How your release strategy configured ?

If you release strategy triggered as per PO total value, it will not work for lock any item(s).

Release strategy depend on PO header level Ordered Value.

When you lock (S) any item, then PO total order value doesn't decreased.

So your value for release strategy will not change. But if you delete the line item, then this value will decreased accordingly, so your release strategy will get effect.

Hi Dëv Päträ,

The value didn't change and the strategy still restarts.

Thanks,

I have tested the same scenario..

My release strategy doesn't triggered in that case..

I assume, there are some development in your system, that causes the release strategy is re-triggered.

Check with your ABAP team, is there any BADI or User Exit implemented for the re-triggered release strategy..

Normally PO-LOEKZ does not initiate release again if the value of the Release is within the Release

strategy value. When you put deletion indicator, total PO amount gets affected , if the reduced

amount is not within the level of release it initiates the release strategy again
