Control Material Master Views with IDOC load

Hello all,
I am wondering how best to control which views are available during IDoc processing for Material Master.
For example I just want the Basic Data 1 and Basic Data 2 tabs, I am only populating the relevant data and placing a value of u201CKu201D in the Maintenance Status fields. This seems to work and avoids the warnings I seem to encounter when I neglect to add values for the Maintenance Status fields.
The warning I get at times tell me the IDoc is attempting to extend all available views, then it makes them available once I view my Material with MM03, however because there is no data in them I canu2019t go into the tabs. That is fine because I can go to the Basic data tabs, but I was disappointed to see the other tabs enabled, but inaccessible.
With Direct Input I used to be able to simply indicate which views I want. Now it seems I must request the maintenance views that then translate to actual views.
Please help.
Thanks

Yes I have experience in that area, and I fill the PSTAT as well. But you can also run a program (is in IMG > Logistic Gerneral > material master) to regenerate PSTAT after you have loaded all materials.
I use IDOC loading method for SAP system mergers. Sent Material master in legacy system using ALE as IDOC collection to a file, then use this file as source for LSMW, and as IDOC to IDOC mapping is just 1:1 I use use this methd in this case.
When loading from Excel file, I started using BAPI import method a few rollout waves back (but not because there is something difficult with IDOC, just to get used to this method).

Exclude Material Master views in IDoc

Hi,
I am using the MATMAS04 IDoc to replicate material master data from one client to another (two clients in the same system). I need to exclude the MRP I-IV views and the Storage Location views - except for these views the data in all other views should be replicated in the target client. Is there a way to just disable the data for these views in the Idoc? I have checked the various segments, but was not able to find any flag/field to disable views selectively.
Please help.
thanks,
ram.

Hi Ram,
I am not familiar with Idoc type MATMAS04. I guess you are using a later version of R3.
However there is a segment filtering functionality for IDocs which you can use.
As an example , I will use IDoc Type MATMAS03. This idoc type has a segment E1MVKEM which stores the Sales View data for the material. This segment is not a mandatory segment and hence it can be filtered when sending the idoc downstream.
In BD64, for the distribution model, create a filter. The filter should be set to check the contents of Sales Org field. Then set the filter to a value which you are never expecting to find in VKORG field.
What happens is this: A master idoc will be created with all the views ( meaning all the segments ). During the filtering stage, the filters set up in BD64 will be checked. If the Sales Org in the idoc does not match the Sales Org in the Filter, the E1MVKEM segment will be deleted in the idoc.
A similar approach could be used for the MRP views and Storage Location views in your idoc.
Thanks,
Urmila

Material Master views for every material type

HI Expertis,
I am facing to the big problem. My requirement is to identify the Material Master Views relevent to the each and every Material Type.
As an example, for the material type "FGTR" what should be the required views to create material master?
From the MM01 Txn i found 36 Material types. Also found the standard views in "OMS2" Txn. But in OMS2 txn it gives me almost all the views in material master.
Atlease i hope to categorize the material types which are going to use same material views. So i can ask abaper to develop it.
these are the required Material types : MODE, FGTR, WETT, KMAT, LEER, LGUT, FERT, FOOD, INTR, CONT, IBAU, HERS, NLAG, NOF1, UNBW, HIBE, VERP, FRIP, PIPE, FHMI, ROH, LEIH, HALB, DIEN, ERSA, HAWA
I would be gratefully thank u, if u can guided me on this matter.
Thanx & Regards,
Rashika.

Hi,
You can ask your abaper to write a small program by using table t134(T134-PSTAT) and T132T .From this tables ,for each material type, you get all views.

Tax Code in Material Master views

Hi,
I want to know in which view we can find the details of "tax code " for the material in Material master views?.
Also suggest me where else we can find the information of Tax Code for the given material.
Thanks

Hi,
you cannot get the tax code in material master. In material master we mainatin tax releated information in Foregin trade import and to get that contaol data tab in material master you have to do some config.
After mainatining the data in material master tax code is maintained in FV11 in case of taxinn and in case of taxinj tax releated data is to maintaiin in J1id and different tax code has to be created with the help of FTXP
Plz let me know if any further information is required

Fields in material master views related to costing

Hi All Gurus,
In Material Master Views
Can you suggest the fields or indicators according to MM point of view,
which should be given or indicator to setting on.
Rgds
Ana.

Hi,
For accounting view.
If material is FERT or HALB: -
Enter valuation class,
Price control as "S"
Standard price(If you have run costing for FERT & HALB then not enter standard price because at the time of costing run system calculate standard price of product).
For ROH, VERP, ERSA etc...
Enter valuation class,
Enter price control as "V",
Enter moving average price.

Hi,
Follow the path below:
SPRO --> Logistics - General --> Material Master --> Configuring the Material Master
Here you can maintain the Mainscreens, Secondary screens etc..
SPRO --> Logistics - General --> Material Master --> Basic Settings --> Material Types --> Define Attributes of Material Types.
here you can activate the Material Tab Pages with refernce to your Material Type.
Hope this helps..

Mass changes of Material Master field with different values

Hi,
How to change a field in Material Master for more than thousand materials. I think MM17 can only be used for mass changes of materials with same values. I need to upload different values for different materials. Is there any other way to do this.
Thanks,
K R Vishnu Kumar

Hi Kumar.
I think you have to use LSMW for mass updation for Material Master fields with different values.

Material master Upload with LSMW

Hi
When I make Material master Upload with LSMW, I could not find any entry in planning file.
Please explain.

Mayuresh,
Not all LSMW transactions properly update Planning file.
You can run transaction MDAB to set up planning file in Background
You can run transaction MDRE to detect and correct Planning file inconsistancies in Background.
It is probably a good idea to run these jobs periodically, say, weekly, in most production environments.

Creating Material Master views

Hi Experts,
I am writing a program to upload material master views.
From that program i am getting the file as output and by using RMDATIND program(Direct input program) i am uploading that output file to that program and creates the material when it does not exists and if the material exists it will check the particular view that i want to upload.
In doing this i got one question that, i am checking the field VPSTA in MARA table for the views that are created to that material.
That field contains the values as EDALS.
E for PURCHASING VIEW
D for MRP VIEW
A for WORK SHEDULING VIEW
L for GENERAL PLANT DATA
S for WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT VIEW
I want to know the characters for the other views also.
Can any one give information for that views.
Thanks,

Updation of Material Master Views

Dear All,
I am facing a design problem in creation of Material Master.
A certain user group creates X,Y,Z views in MM01 , MM02 but the other views data which would be of relevance to other users needs to be updated based on certain conditions like Material Type etc.
Eg : PLM user making Basic Data view .
 FI views and Sales View to be created automatically for other users.
The issue is this updation of data in other views which is of two categories :
i) if material type = 'abc'.
 MRP profile = 'fgh'.
ii) if material type = literature.
 then plants = '1111', '2222' , '3333' etc....
Regarding i):-
This data can being updated in a user exit , eg 'MGA00001' called in MM01.
But it doesnot allow to change any other structure other than WMARA where as we need to update data for WMARC, WMBEW, WMVKE etc.
Regarding ii) :-
How can I create material on many plants while the material is under creation in MM01 ?
How can i) and ii) be cracked ?
Pls give solutions asap .
Rewards are sure for helpful answers!!

Shweta

To know the authorization objects of material master screen, check the following link on my blog

To find all authorization objects for a transaction, you can try SU22.

Issue: Sending material master using ALE-IDOC.

Hi all,
I am sending the material master data from one server to another.All the fields getting transported along with creator(field ERNAM) of the material.When viewed from WE05 the field is having the same data as original creator of the material in sending system.But when i view data in receiving system for field MARA-ERNAM the field is having the USER NAME giver in RFC-DESTINATION.can anybody guide so that the creator from IDOC is updated in database and not the creator given in RFC
destination.
Thank you.

Hi,
Hope you are using some middleware to transfer the Idoc to other system, check the mapping details from the middleware side whethere the field mapped correclty.

Material master views as per user

Hi,
I have a requirement, insted of user authorization conept, we wanrt that the user can view only the assign views of material master to that view
e.g if user is ABC, this user whenever display or chnage matetial master he can only view the screen of basic data nad purchasing, and if user XYZ login with MM02 or MM03 he can only view the Basic data, work scheduling and accounting view not the remaning can we control this with customizing, also How we can find alll the authorization obejct releated to material master screen, or related to one transaction.

Material Master Views Authorization

Hi All,
I'm trying to restrict some views of the material master for some users. I've read that is possible to limit these views by the maintenance status of the authorizations but itit doesn't work for me. can you help me?
I am using "SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY" role in order to restrict all the views except Warehouse Managment. So, I put the maintenance status of the WM view to display and nothing else with the others. Is it wrong?
Is there any other way to do what I want?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi All,
I have made a copy of the role SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY and I have changed some setting in order to hide some views of the Material Master for the user. It has worked finally but doing this the user doesn't have authorization for other Transactions Code of WM like LS24, LT*, etc... So, I guess, I have to merge some roles and/or authorizations or I have to create an own role to pack everything I want for this user. Anyway, this is another issue...
Thank you very much for your help, your answers have been very useful.
Best Regards,
David
