What are Release Strategies? • Release = Approve in SAP. • Determines the order and by who a document (PO or PR) is approved in SAP. • Documents must be approved in a timely manner to ensure orders move through the system. Unreleased documents can not be converted to POs or ordered from the vendor. • Up to three levels of approval • Department Head/ Funds Center • Director • District Purchasing Office
What is PR? • PR = Purchase Requisition. PRs are used to buy something that is OVER $5000! (Unless you are in Facilities). • PRs must be approved (using ME55) separately then POs. • A PR comes in two Document Types: • PR = request for Goods (items) • RFC = request for contract (services)
What is a PO? • PO = Purchase Order. A PO is used to buy something that is UNDER $5000! • POs must be approved (using ME28) separately then PRs. • A PO comes in four Order Types: • CO = Contract (only use when converting from PR) • FOF = Facilities Order Form (only for Facilities projects) • PO = Purchase Order (ordering goods/items) • STA = Short Term Agreement (ordering contract/service)
