Go to your release config and open the release indicator section and find the indicator you are using for for final approval.

In this indicator you will see the field selection key FZ01 (if SAP std you have used)

go to Define Screen Layout at Document Level for requisition and locate FZ01

and make the field you don't want user to change as display.

then user will not have access to change the field after release and if you want that if user change any qty or price then system can re determine the release strategy

to do that goto same indicator tab and in the changeability section enter 4 and in the valued chg field enter 0.1

so any changed more than 0.1 will re determine the release

hi Ajay,

If u r asking release indicator, then it determines

Whether the document may be changed by Purchasing after the start of the release procedure

Whether a new strategy is determined and whether existing releases must be cancelled in the event of changes

Whether the purchasing document is released for transmission

Hope it wud have answered ur question

reward if useful

Dear Ajay,

I think that Creation indicator is for Release Procedure in PR (CEBAN-ESTKZ), this can be used in your PR Release Proc Characteristic to differentiate between PR source generation (like manual creation, from MRP,etc).
