What is meant by a release strategy?

Answer Posted / eldi

A Release Strategy is the process that replicates manual
approval of Purchase Requisitions and Purchase Orders. A
set of Release Groups are created in SAP to mirror the
authorities empowered to sign contracts for different areas
of the organisation. The Manual of Authorities (Delegation
of financial purchase limits) are created as Release codes
in SAP. Based on configuration , whenever a PR or PO is
created, the document is blocked for further processing.
Manually or using workflow, the document can be cleared
(authorised) by the Releasing authority using the Release
Group and Release Code. Changes to sensitive fields in the
PR/PO can invoke the release strategy so that effective
control is maintained on the purchase process.
