Question:
Dear SAPfans,
We have 4 levels of release for release of PO, C1, C2, C3 & C4, in that order; the actual release depending on value & purch group.
I need help for two release scenarios.
1. For a certain release, we require that after C1 releases, either C2 or C3 should release. How is this to be configured.
2. For a particular purch group, C1 has authority to release orders for any value. However, we want to configure such a way that both C2 & C3 can also issue orders for this group & release themselves. Can this be done.
Looking forward to help from the experts.
Thanks in advance

Hi,

Yes, this can be easily set when you define your release strategy in Transaction OMGS.
2. For a particular purch group, C1 has authority to release orders for any value. However, we want to configure such a way that both C2 & C3 can also issue orders for this group & release themselves. Can this be done.
I don't know quite sure what exactly you would like the system to behave. It would, therefore, be better if additional clarification is to be provided.

Hi Ha Tran
Thanks for the reply.
Let me clarify.
C1 is the lowest in the org hierarchy & can release orders of any value for a particular group.
At times, C2 & C3, who are next up the hierarchy in that order, will require to prepare & release POs themselves individually for items in this group. This is the requirement.
Is configuration for this to be done in the prerequisites.
Thanks

Answer:
Hi,
Am I right to say that you would like to set up the release strategy where sometimes, you will have only one Release Code C1 while in the other special cases, either C2 or C3 will be additionally included in the same Release Strategy?. If this is the case, then I don't think that this can be set unless you can have different purchasing group or value.
