Match Code Or Trick for Old Article Number

Hello Retail Expert,
                              Can anybody know match-code or Shortcut to enter Article Display screen (TA MM43) directly with old Article number?
My business people dont want to go through search help. They have always worked with Old Article Number or EAN. To enter with EAN directly I found it (i.e. (=n.) then EAN no.) but its not enough becuase only store work with EAN but DC people work with only Article number( which is now in SAP as Old article no).  I can enter Article Master Data over search help using Old Article Number. If anybody know such kind of Match code or tricks, please do let me know.
Or any other suggestion are welcome.
Thank you all in advance.
regards,
Nilesh

Hi, You are almost right with your idea. If you access the "!Matchcode" button next to your article number field, then you will get a huge list for selection incl. the "hot keys" (e.g. N for EAN) For the old article number, the related hot key is "A".
If you now use the hot key A in this way (is for all hot keys the same logic) =A.xxxxx (xxxxx stands for the old article number) the systemwill convert the value into the actual article number io enter the article master data.
To sum up, guys in the Store should use =N. whereas guys in the DC are using =A.
If you might use a scanner, the scanner could defaulted with this "hot keys" in oder to speed up the access.

Andreas

  • How to make a archive for old articles?

    i have finally learne how to build a site but i would like to make a archive for old articals to clean up the site but still be available to any who want to read so would someone point me in the right direction ?
    Dreamweaver cs 5.5

    Depends what kind of archive you've got in mind.
    You could just create a page of links which point to your articles.
    But the best option in my eyes is to forget Dreamweaver and set up something like a Wordpress site which will automatically archive for you.

  • Hard code a seed for a random number generator?

    Hi, I need to randomly get either 1 or 0, but in the program I'm running I want to get the same distribution of 1's and 0's every time I run it. I know I need to hardcode the seed in so I use the same seed every time, but I'm not sure how to do this. I know how to use Math.random, and just do
    double randomDouble = Math.random();
    int rand = (int)(randomDouble + 0.5);but I dont know how to hard code a seed using this.
    thanks.

    I tried that, and the problem is that I get the same random number every time (in this case I get 1 every time).Then you must be creating a new Random every time.
    To be more clear on what I want, I am generator 20 numbers, and I want a random distributions of 1's and 0's, but I want to get the same distribution every time I run the program. Like if I get 13 1's and 7 0's then I want to get that every time. Can I do this? Right now, I will end up with either 20 1's or 20 0's.
    ThanksCreate a new Random once, probably as a static member variable, but possibly just at the start of that method. Seed that Random with the same value every time it's created, and you'll get the same sequence every time you use it.
    BUT, if you create it, then use it, then create, then use, and repeat that 20 times, then you'll be getting the first number of the same sequence 20 times.
    By the way, to you want 1/0 or true/false? If the latter, I believe Random has a nextBoolean method.

  • Match Codes / Search Helps for Duplicate Check Vendor are missing

    Hi Guys,
    I'm trying to enable the Duplicate Check for the Vendor solution we have here and I couldn't help, but notice that when I'm setting up the DB Search in "Define Search Application", the out of the box values for existing search helps are already preconfigured and the values are the following:
    BP MC_BP_ADDRESS Address Data
    BP MC_BP_BANK_DETAIL Bank Details
    BP MC_BP_GENERAL General Data
    BP MC_BP_ID_NUMBER Identification Numbers
    BP MC_BP_ROLES BP Roles
    Unfortunately, when I check in SE11 - those search helps do not exist in the system. How can I get them deployed? Are they part of a Business Set that I missed to install and activate?
    Thanks in advance,
    Boris

    Hi Boris
    Please check that the following is set in your system:
    Configure Duplicate check for entity types - BP need the following:
    Assign search object connector template to object types - BP need the following:
    Ensure that "Business Partner template for MDG" connector is created in ESH_COCKPIT

  • Can't forward email - new trick for old phish?

    I got a phishing email recently, pretending to be a notification from Facebook. Par for the course so far and hardly Verizon's problem, I know. Patience...
    Many companies, epecially credit card companies and banks, maintain email addresses so you can report exactly this sort of suspicious email. Facebook has one too. Again, sounds like it's not Verizon's problem, but...
    When I tried to forward the hinky message to the proper authorities, the SMTP server spit it back in my face. Refused to send it. No reason given beyond "Sending the message content to the server failed." While not squarely in Verizon's court, the ball has hit the net, and stuck there.
    I sent another test message to myself, and it went through just fine. So it's just that one message. Which raises questions:
    Could the phisher have stuck something into the email to prevent it from being forwarded?
    Could Verizon, in its finite wisdom and infinite attempts to cover its **bleep**, be blocking the email from being sent because it contains suspicious elements? Which, technically, it does—I'm trying to forward the original message to report it.
    Either there's a technical limitation on Verizon's smtp server that's preventing the forwarding, or Verizon itself has set a "protection" on the server to keep suspicious emails from going out. I have "protection" in sneer-quotes in this case because, by preventing the forwarding, Verizon is protecting the phisher.
    Suggestions?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Forward it to verizon's [email protected] which allows such to be forwarded.  They do contact the other companies where necessary.
    If you foward to other locations they really don't know that you aren't the spammer and so it gets stopped.

  • Cannot access keychain. Passwords are all correct, "security code" sent to old cellphone number. Impossible to contact apple support.

    I've been trying to access my iCloud's keychain for weeks now. Updating Yosemite somehow made my 13'' Macbook pro "log off" from the keychain and when I try to reconnect to the keychain, I am asked my iCloud password and then my security code, which I both enter successfully.
    Then I am unexplainably asked to enter a "security code" sent to an old cellphone number of mine that is now deactivated. I click on "I don't have access to this number" and I am redirected to Apple's confusing silly-willy contact support website and find out that, since I am in China, there is NO POSSIBLE WAY for me to contact support.
    Bottom line is, even though I have FULL CREDENTIALS to access the entirety of my iCloud's features(my passwords are all correct!!), I am stuck trying to access my keychain because of an unreasonable unsolicited and unwanted "security" measure, combined with a NON-EXISTING costumer support for China.
    Apple is such a huge waste of time, I own an iPhone, a Macbook pro and a magic mouse, but one thing I'm sure of is, I will never ever buy anything else from this company again, because it just PRETENDS to sell the "perfect costumer experience".

    Hi 2 stroke,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having issues setting up or using iCloud Keychain, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • Plant a match code for opening a project

    Hi All,
    I am trying to develope a match code of Plant for opening a project. Such that a list of projects to come out after entering a plant then select a project and then open a project like PO by supplying plant. I have gone through SPRO that is OPT2 match codes for Project definitions. But not found ready made match code to be included.
    Is ther any easy way other ABAP use? or give logic how to deveope it.
    Thanks and regards

    Hi
    If you mean opening a project in standard reports like CN41, it would be easier to use "dynamic selection option" and hard code the plant, and then save the selection version.
    Everytime, you want to open projects in the respective plant, you can call the selection version in the initial screen of the report.
    Hope it helps.

  • Report to find a material by a mfr part number and old material number

    Hi,
    Is there any standard report to find a material by a mfr part number and old material number ?
    For the moment, we are using MM03 to search articles by these selection criterion.
    Thanks,

    Hi
    As there is no stsndard report use the SQVI to find out the details, It is very simple , please follwo the below steps.
    Use Txn SQVI, enter the Quick view field say- ZMNFR and click the  create button, Enter the title in the next screen i.e Report name- Say - Manufacturer's Part No. Details, in the same screen you need to enter  MARA  for the data from table/database view, please leave the 1. data source as Table only and the radio button as Basis mode only.  Click the tick mark , you will go to the next screen,
    You will notice Quick viewer Intial screen
    Open the node general material data
    Select the Buttons besides the fields MARA-MATNR for material number, MARA-MFRPN for manufacturers part number, and MARA-BISMT for old material number. You can include any other field if you wish to have in your output. You will notice two check boxes against each field, one is for input screen field and the other is for outputf field. But currently you do not bother about and select both the check boxes or any other field you wish to have as input and output as well. Once selected all the fields afer clicking the check boxes save the total arrangement. and then in the same screen use the execute button or use F8 to find out your report input screen.
    Now enter the Material number for which you wish to know other two details in the report and execute again you will find the report output.
    Please ensure that you are maintaining both the details in material master basic data1 and purchasing  view if you wish to get  out output

  • Identification of old material number at plant level

    Dear All,
    We are implementing SAP for  two hospitals. In legacy system each hospital as its own material master and material number. Now in SAP each hospital we are treating as a plant. These two plants are assigned to one company code.
    So it means that there will be one unique material number for two hospitals. Now business wants their old material number (which is maintained differently for two Hospitals) at plant level in search functionality
    How can I achieve with material master
    Regards
    Subhash

    create a class "OLDMAT" for old material number with CL03 for class type 001
    define a characteristic for old material number for each plant  with CT04 and assign it to the class  (can as well be done from within CL03). name it e.g. OLDMXXXX (XXXX = plant number)
    in MM01 select classification view and add the class. after you hit enter you get the fields to add the old material numbers
    Standard F4 help for a material number allows then to search for a material number by classification.

  • Group Key field Match Code in Vendor Master

    My client have a unique requirement to group the vendors.  We are using the Group key field in the vendor master for this purpose,  We want to create a match code which can link the vendor number to the group key field.  Anyone have any idea on how this can be developed or configured.  
    When I looked at the help on this field Following is the help mentioned.  but I am not sure how the match code for the group key would work or how to configure this.  I appreciate any inputs on this issue. 
    Group key
         If the customer or the vendor belongs to a group, you can enter a group
         key here. The group key is freely assignable.
         If you create a matchcode using this group key, group evaluations are
         possible.

    I know it has to be done by ABAP group but I got confused with the help on this field.. ABAP group says it is going to be a core code change since there is no user exit available for that field.

  • Match Code restriction

    Hi
    I'm trying to restrict the values that appears in the match code (F4 proccess) for Currency type Infoobject in a query 3.x
    For example:
    Right now, when I press the F4 process I'm seeing this values:
    20 (Global Currency)
    10 (Local Currency)
    B0
    GB
    00 (Transactional Currency)
    What I want, is to restrict some of those values in order to see when I press F4 the following
    20 (Global Currency)
    10 (Local Currency)
    00 (Transactional Currency)
    There is any way to exclude the values that I don't want to see?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the quick response
    The thing is that we only want to remove values from the currency type match code BUT ONLY FOR TWO QUERYS
    So with this requirement, I can't change the business explorer tab of the infoobject, because that will affect all the places were my infoobject is used
    The only values presented in the cube are: 10 and 20 but in the F4 process I see more than two, I see: 10, 20, BG, 00, G0
    Through an abap program maybe?

  • Match code for Vendor Master Data on PAN

    Hi
    Vendor match code will work only if the name are identical. But for the same vendor, user create multiple vendors.
    For Ex: If the vendor name is ABC Private Limited, User puts different names like ABC Pvt Ltd, ABC P Ltd, etc.
    Hence the match code check is over ridden.
    For that reason, i want check on the basis of PAN number.
    There is no field for PAN number in match codes field.
    Please suggest how it can be maintained

    Hi ,
    Use the exit SAPMF02K , which is specially ment for vendor master data .
    Cheers ,

  • How to modify an existing Match code selection for Vehicles

    Hello,
    In vehicle master Change or Display (T-code: O4V2 or O4V3) we eneter TD vehicle no. (OIGV-
    VEHICLE). Here when we take a drop down - F4 (Match Code selection) and various options are available like
    1). Vehicle Number and Description
    2). General Data
    3). Vehicle weights
    4). Vehicle type  etc
    In Vehicle master under 'Communication Data' we have one field called 'Call Sign' (OIGV-VHCLSIGN). We would like to have this field in drop down selection / Match code selection for Vehicle on any of the above mentioned tab page in Match code selection (e.g. Say under 'General Data'). How do we add the same or how do I do this modification of existing matcode selection?
    For Customer master we can maintain Match code selection in SPRO (Maintain Matchcodes for Customers) which I am aware of. I am looking for something similar for Vehicles or may be some direct development.
    Can anyone please guide me in this?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Aniruddha.

    Hi Anirudhdha,
    Unlike customer match code there is no customising option for vehicles. But conceptually the same thing can be done. Create a single search help with the criteria you need. Add it to the collective search help OIGV (like we do for DEBI in customer master).
