Check Release
Strategies
In this step, you can check whether the basic
settings for your release strategy are complete and correct.
Checks
The following checks are carried out for
purchase requisitions:
The system checks
whether the necessary release groups exist in the system. For example: Whether
a release group has been deleted even though an associated release strategy
still exists.
Note
The following checks are carried out for item-wise and overall release and the
results displayed separately.
- Checks regarding release group and
release class
The system checks
whether the release groups and the associated classes have been maintained
correctly. For example, whether:
- A class has been assigned to the release
groups and whether it exists in the system
- Characteristics - which exist in the system
and are linked to the communication structure - have been assigned to the
class
- Acustomer exit must be maintained for a
characteristic
- Checks regarding release
codes
The system checks
whether the release codes have been maintained correctly.
- Checks regarding release
indicators
The system checks
whether the release indicators have been maintained correctly. For example,
whether release indicators exist for the statuses "Blocked" and
"Released".
- Checks regarding release
strategies
The system checks
whether the release strategies have been maintained correctly. For example,
whether:
- Release codes have been assigned to the
release strategy
- The relevant release indicators have been
assigned to the initial and final statuses of a release strategy
- Checks regarding link to
workflow
The system checks
whether the link between your release procedure and workflow has been
maintained correctly. For example, whether:
- A processor (member of staff responsible for
processing) has been assigned to a workflow-relevant release code and is
defined in the organizational plan
- A customer exit is necessary for the role
resolution
