Not getting the Link between GEIL and material type: procured material not

Hi Friends,
Some material corresponding to certain G/L Account numbers are not appearing. From Fagll03 I can check the G/L Account number, but how shall be able to get the corresponding table field which holds the material or to check whether that G/L Account number has been properly linked to the material.
Please suggest what to do. Is this a problem of programming ? or ...
Thanks,
Saheli

Hi Saheli,
Link b/n GL accounts and Material is in this way.
Material is created based on material type and material type is connected to Valuation class via Account category reference.
Now that for each valuation class corresponding GL accounts are defined in customizing.
you can check the same in Tcode# OBYC.
To check the posting to Inventory account during GR, select BSX (Inventory posting) and check whether the corresponding valuation class has got the assignment with GL accounts or not.
Hope this help you out.

Sales order for pipeline material type..

Hi All,
How can we raise the sales order for pipeline material..
Is schedule lines will be there for the sales order raised for pipeline material???
Rgds,
Pavan

Hi
Seems you working on IS Utilities, please corerct if Wrong and if I am wrong to guess you are working on IS Utilities then the next story dosn't make any sence.
PIPEline material type is used for Materials such as oil, power, or water that flow into the production process directly from a pipeline, line, or other type of conduit. Since pipeline materials are always available, they are not planned.
To answer specifically what you asked would be as follows:
1. The fact that material type is PIPE from an SD standpoint is irrelevant
2. lets consider your PIPEline material is power, your UOM should be Kilowatt hours and establish price for it.
3. "deliver" the material and bill it.
However, taking the whole business context of sale of electricity into account why you want to sell PIPEline material without using IS Utilities. Typically electrical utiltity requirements have some unique challenges not easily met by SD:
1. Amount to be billed to the customer is from meter readings.
2. The bill to the customer ( at least in North America) is not so much of an invoice as opposed to statement of accounts that includes meter readings, consumption history etc.
I will suggest to look into IS Utilties first before getting into SD.

SAP report for movement type and material type

Hi!
I would like to use a standard SAP report to give me a list of all the movement types (much like MB51) but instead of material I would like to select on Material type e.g. ROH. The result should for example be a list of the movement types 501 on material type ROH.
It is urgent, if you could help me I would be very greatful!
Sincerely
Anders Öhrling

Thanks for your answer!
I have managed to join the two tables and created a report that will work, except that the amounts in local currency that is given by movement type 201 is not negative (as in MB51). I need all movement types that generate a debit must be shown as a negative value. Wo when I summarize all the movement types I end up with the value of 101 minus 201.
Is that possible without ABAP programming?
Sincerely Anders Öhrling

Change material type

When i am changing the material type i am getting this msg. In Po items were deleted.
Change Material Type
The material type cannot be changed.
The reasons for this are:
Valuated stock exists (see valuation areas below).
However, account determination for the two material types differs.
(different account category reference or no valuation data defined)
Valuation area
1030
No open purchase order are there.

Material type and account assignment group relation

Hi,
Getting an error while creating material master save. Account assignment Zx can't be with Material Type Zxxxx.
Please advise where is the link maintained between material account assignment group and material type.
My material is Z service material.
As I no for plant,industry, material type valuation class quanity update tick required but that is for stockable materials which is not the case above.
Thanks

HI,
You can make the field Account Assignment Group of Material Master as inactive.
But it depends up on Plant, Industry Sector Type and Material Type.
You can do this in IMG --> Logistic General --> Material Master --> Field Selection
Or
use SHD0.. give T-code MM01. and you can deactivate the field.
Hope this helps you.

Change material Type - 'MMA'

I am trying to Change Material Type using T-code - 'MMAM'.But Message is coming PO already exist.
Problem is tat we have already created GIN for the PO & Reversed the GIN also,but still PO is not getting release to Change any data.It is giving error,that GIN already exist.
I want to Change the MAterial Type.How can i do that.??
Viru.

Please note that both the new material type and the old material type must have the
same characteristics eg. quantity based material management is one of
the characteristic. The R/3 Online Help provides a very good explanation
on all the pre-requisites before you can change a material type.
(Logistics Gen>Logistics Basic Data > LO Managing Material Master Data >
Material Master Record > Material Type > Change Material Type)
Please check if you have set the deletion flag for any PO's as
these need to be physically deleted for MMAM to work. You will also
need to check if there are ANY open items for this order. The purchase
orders need to be ARCHIVED. You should complete the invoice receipt for
this position BEFORE you set the deletion flag in the purchase order.
Also, if the material is already in stock, or if reservations or
purchasing documents exist for it, the following conditions must also be
met:
>The stock values of the material of the new material type must be
updated in the same G/L account as the stock values of the material of
the old material type.
>Quantities and values of the material of the new material type must be
updated in exactly the same way in all plants as quantities and values
of the material of the old material type.
>If there is a transfer requirement for the material and if quantities
of the material exist, the new material type must also allow the
material data to be maintained from the Warehouse Management view.

Help: Additiional Material Type

Hi MM Functional,
I'm an abapper and we don't have functional to consult with. Here's my client's requirement.
Current scenario: Item category TAN is assigned to any materials including asphalt.
Requirement: My client wanted to separate Asphalt to other material because of the check overdelivery. He also wanted to have an automatic Item category defined when creating sales order once the material has been defined.
For example, if he input Asphalt in the Material field, automatic the Item Cat is ZTAN. If Material ABC is defined, the Item Cat is TAN. And if Free item material, it is TANN.
According from the SD functional, I should create another Item category group, a duplicate of NORM for ZTAN. set ztan as default Item category. I was thinking how will the material will know if it is znorm or norm.
Question in MM: I'm using SAP 4.0, Is there a field in MAterial Master(MM03) that defines Item Category Group? So I could change Item cat group of Asphalt. OR>ZNOR>ZTAN
Or it would be better if I will add material group for Asphalt.
So instead of HAWA, It would be ZHAW> ZNOR>ZTAN(Default Item Cat)> TAN(Manual Item Cat)
Points will be given. Need your help... thanks!

Dear Maniyar,
Like every son has his own father, likewise every material has his own identity i.e is material type.
Material types Determines
When you create a material master record, the material type you choose determines:
configurable material or process material
internally or externally
The number range
Which screens appear and in what sequence
Which departmental data you may enter
What procurement type the material has i.e. in-house/external
Together with plants it determines either quantity related update in Material Master/Stocks Account
Moreover, Account effected by entering or leaving warehouse totally dependent on material types.

For 3 rd pary service provider - what material type could be used??

I am a third pary service provider warehouse. I receive materials from different customers in loose units . After receiving i palletize the material the material. Since i do not have any idea what materials i receive i am planning to use material type nonvaluated but stock material. I do not know how far it will satisfy my requirement.Any suggestion or ideas .....

Hello,
You are procuring the materials, palletizing the same & selling it across. In such cases, you can maintain the material type as HAWA(Trading Goods).
But before changing the materilal type to HAWA from UNBW, kindly ensure that you have to close all the open orders for the material type UNBW.
Hope these inputs will satisfy your requirements.

Contract Manufacturing Material Type

All,
I need help in determining what material type to use for contract manufacturing. We will be building a product for a customer who will supply the material to us. We want to set up the parts in the material master so that we can track the parts in inventory and be able to produse production orders against the inventory. What I need to make sure of is that the parts will not show any value in our inventory as we will not take ownership of the parts. Please advise the material type to use and how to configure the set up. As always thanks for the help and support.
Thanks,

Material Types in Multy-Company Structure

Hello, experts,
We are implementing SAP ERP in a multy-company structure. Seven different company codes will be definied in the same SAP client. Three of these companies (A, B and C) produce similar machines. Another company (D) produces components for the machines that the other three companies (A, B and C) produce. Two of the companies (E and F) are pure wholesalers. They buy materials from the other companies (A, B, C and D) and sell them to external customers.
Another example:
Material X is a component which company D produces. So for company D this is a finished product (FERT). The same material is used as a component in the BOM of material Y, which companies A, B and C produce. So, for companies A, B and C material X is a raw material (ROH) and material Y is a finished product (FERT). Companies E and F buy both material X and material Y from companies D and A, B, C respectively and sell it to external customers. So for companies E and F both material X and Y are trading goods (HAWA).
I guess you see the trouble :). So, what material types shall be defined in this SAP client?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Regards,
Rosen

one material can only have one material type.
If you dont want to use standard material types such as FERT, just because the other company does not accept this because for them it is a raw material, then just define an own material type.
a material type is nothing but description with some customizing. It is mainly used to define the layout of a material master, which views and fields will be present.
But people think they need to use the material type as key for reports. This will not work in a intercompany business.
I had such dicussions several times, people often just were confused because a raw material for them becomes a FERT in SAP, so you can ease the discussion by defining an own material type, even this will not solve the reporting issue .

How to change Material Type

Hi All,
I have created new material type as ZINS ( Insurance spares ).
Now,I have to change ZSPR ( Spares) material to ZINS material type.
In system there are no liabilities for this material.But ,I am getting following error while executing T-code :-MMAM.
Error :- " Change Material Type
The material type cannot be changed.
The reasons for this are:
QM inspection data exists for the material. In this inspection data,
it is defined that a plan is required for the inspection. However,
inspection plans are not allowed for the new material type.
    Plant
    1100
    6001
Task lists already exist for specific TL types for the material
The new material type does not allow assignment of task lists for these TL types "
I want to know is there any settings required while creating new material type in quality module,as this error seems to be related to Quality module.
Please help,as this is very much urgent.
Thanks.
With Best Regards,
Rajesh
