Hi

Material Group is at Item level. PO release can happen only at the header level. So it cannot be done for a material group.

Hope this answer will be helpful, if so award point.

Hi,

KCE is right in case of PO. Please clear If you are talking about PR or PO.

Also remember that after creating this as characteristic and including in class then all other rel strategies will be inactive as you need to assign this characteristics to all strategies and all material group in stratigy.

Also remenber that frequestly we need to produce new material groups so all these material group are required to maintain in characteristics which is tedious ans person dependent work.

Rel strategy should be controlled by organisation structure element as far as possible.
