Hi,
In this step you create material groups.
You also have the option of using the same transaction to carry out the following activities:
Creating superior hierarchy levels
Assigning the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
Assigning the base material group to the material group hierarchy
Assigning characteristics profiles below material group level
Requirements
Your R/3 System is configured as an SAP Retail System.
Activities
1. Create superior hierarchy levels
   You create hierarchy levels using transaction WG01 (creating
   material groups) via menu options MG environment --> Hierarchy
   level --> Create
2. Assign the superior hierarchy levels to a material group hierarchy
   You assign hierarchy levels to a hierarchy using transaction WG01
   (creating material groups) via menu options MG environment -->
   Hierarchy level --> Maint. MG hierarchy
3. Create material groups (base material groups) and then maintain the
   pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material)
4. Assign the base material group to the material group hierarchy
   You assign the material group to the hierarchy using transaction
   WG01 (creating material groups)
5. Assign characteristics profiles below material group level
   You assign characteristics profiles using transaction WG01
   (creating material groups)
Further notes
When creating material groups and then maintaining the pre-defined materials (reference material/material group material) you should be aware of the following.
As these materials can be created automatically using a minimum of data, you should follow this procedure with a check and possibly further maintenance, especially of plant-specific data. The material group reference material should be defined in as much detail as possible so as to keep the workload to a minimum when you have to create more materials for this material group.
All hierarchy allocations involving a material group (base material group) and a higher or lower hierarchy level can be carried out on the initial screen (there is no need to switch to the detail screen). All further hierarchy allocations can be defined top-down when you maintain material group hierarchies.
Only the material groups are transported automatically!

  • How to create new group for material type

    Hello all experts,
    Im unable to create a new group for materials types, diff groups for FG and raw materials material type??
    Could you pls help ??
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    When you create a new material you have to specify the material types like finished goods or raw material like that in the initial screen
    For this new material types can be defined in
    SPRO -> Logistic - General -> Material Master -> Basic Settings -> Material Type ->Define attribute of material Type
    T code OMS2
    After specifying the material type and giving organizational data like plant, storage location,sales org etc we go on to create the material
    In one of the tabs the material groups should be specified and from MM point of view it is a reqd entry
    this can be defined in
    Define Material Group
    SPRO -> Logistic - General -> Material Master -> Setting for Key Field -> Define Material Group
    T .Code: OMSF
    I beleive this is what you are asking about

  • Limit material group by material type

    Hello experts,
    When creating a material by tcode mm01 I would like to limit the material groups by material type, as it happens with valuation class.
    It is possible? How can I achieve this behaviour?
    Thanks in advance,
    Best regards,
    JP

    >
    Hi JP,
    You cant control this, since material groups are floating entities with no dependancies. You have to either create a screen variant in SHD0 (this doesnt support for a particular material type)  or chk with your ABAPer to wrte a code to achieve this.

  • How to create Characteristic group in CO-PA for assessment purpose

    Hi,
    Can anybody guide me as how to create Characteristic group in CO-PA for assessment of cost center balance to CO-PA?
    Thanks,
    Bijay

    You need to be more specific in your request - are you looking for a sender, or a receiver grouping? Which characteristic? Is it to be all the values in a characteristic, or is it to be groups of those characteristics.
    Have a look at the setting up of hierarchies for characteristics in COPA master data.

  • Filtering R/3 Material Groups and Material Types

    Hi,
    I am trying to filter the Material groups and material types during master data upload from R/3 to SRM 4.0
    I am tried doing the following:
    1. In Txn R2AR2, i set up the request for DNL_CUST_PROD1 for MARA-MATKL(Material Group) & MARA-MTART(Material Type)and then run the Txn R3AR4 with DNL_CUST_PROD1. The replication was successful, but it pulled in all the R/3 backend material groups and material types.
    Now i deleted the replicated material types and Material groups in SRM using SRM Std reports and this too was successful.
    2. Now i tried another method - In Txn R3AC3, i selected the Object DNL_CUST_PROD1 and i added table MARA and set up the filter requirements for MARA-MTART(Material Types) and MARA-MATKL(Material Groups), i synchronized the filters and then when i selected the object DNL_CUST_PROD1 in Txn R3AS for initial upload, even this is pulling in all the material types and material groups from R/3 without filtering
    Can anyone please let me know the exact procedure to filter out the R/3 Material types and material groups during initial upload of this data into SRM 4.0
    Thanks

    Hi,
      Before starting the INitial load for MATERIAL,for filetr settings ,Go in tcode R3AC1.
      There select the Object name as MATERIAL and click on the "filter settings" tab.
    There in OBJECT FILTER SETTINGS
    Enter the relevant filter criteria:
    e.g. If you wnat to filter on Material type(MARA-MTART):
    The input will be as follows:
    Table /Structure :MARA
    Field :MTART
    OP :EQ Equality (= Low)
    Low: "Material type name"
    Incl/EXcl: Inclusive defined   
    And then click on the button "FILTER SYNC".
    The filter settings are complete for the Material download.

  • Infoobject - Material group: Packaging material

  • How to create a group calendar?

    Hello,
    i am sorry but this is one more question on wiki-group-calendars.
    *In short:*
    I am not able to create a group calendar with the wiki frontend. the calendar that is created with a wiki is owned by the admin of the wiki. So it is always a personal calendar that cannot be shared in iCal.
    LONG:
    I want to create a group calendar that is viewed and edited through iCal.app and the web service. Apple´s "wiki deployment" guide says on page 57:
    +"The web calendar allows you to easily schedule events for yourself or your group. ...+
    +There are *two types of web calendars: personal and group*. You can send and receive event invitations through the personal calendar but not through the group calendar. Also, *while anyone in a group can create or edit events in a group calendar*, you can edit only events in your own personal calendar or event invitations you send to other people.+
    +The web calendar uses iCal Server to store events and invitations. ..."+
    But there is not mentioned how to create a group calendar. The calendar created with the wiki web-frontend belongs to the admin of that particular wiki. This is why the calendar data ist stored in folder named with the UUID of the wiki admin. Also the alias "http://server.fqdn:8008/principals/groups/mygroupname/" which i provided in iCal turns into ..._uids_UUID-of-the-wiki-admin and only the wiki-admin can access this calendar in iCal.app.
    My research on this topic reveals that there were in issue that should be resolved in 10.6.4 (that is running on our Server). So, again, how to create a group calendar?
    Thanks, Philipp.

    fyi none of my groups were available unless i logged into the wiki as the Directory Admin not Server Admin

    Could you be more specific farmer tan, please?
    You said "you need to go to the wiki page and add the wiki's there...." What is the "wiki page" you mention? Is that some place I go to via the browser or the Server Admin tool?
    I went to http://ical.mysite.com/ical/ and logged in as the Directory Administrator but didn't see anything resembling what you described.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  • How to create a group mailing list in JavaMail?

    Hello,
    I've been searching through the entire API, specifically the InternetAddress class and I can't seem to find out how to create a group/mailing list. Does anyone know how to do this?
    That is, I would like to be able to group a bunch of e-mail addresses together and give that group a name "my friends". Then send it off using this 'group mail address' as opposed to an array of InternetAddress[]. Then when the recipients receive the e-mail, they see "my friends" in the To: field, instead of everyone's e-mail address...
    Is this possible in JavaMail? I've tried many things like creating an InternetAddress object passing in a comma-delimited list of e-mail addresses but it doesn't like it.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi:
    I have the same problem. I've read JavaMail implements RFC 822 which allow mailing lists. But, �how can I implement it with JavaMail?

    If so,  you can simply right click on the ROOTUILELEMENTCONTAINER node of the UI elements tree in the top right hand corner of the  Layout Tab, and choose Insert Element.  From the dialog, give the name and then choose Group from the listbox.  That's it.
