Regarding material master record

Hi guru's
material master records are created by MM consultants or SD consultants.
can u please give me the reply.as early as possible

Hi Ramesh,
Material master is basically the part of both SD and MM cycle.Actually it depends upon the views which needs to be selected in order to solve your purpose.
For e.g. views like sales org data 1,sales org data2,sales general plant data are the part of sd cycle.
Where as views like Purchasing are part of MM cycle and views like MRP 1 TO 4 are required by PP and MM both.
SD people can create their own views and if MM person wants to include his own views then that material can be extended.WExtension can be done by writing the name of the material in MM01 na can select relevant views.
hope this answers your questions.
Reward points if it helps.
Regards
Karan

Mass update of huge list of Material master records

Hi dudes,
I want to update 1 field for the huge list of material master record, i.e., statistics field in sales org 2 tab.
please help
regards,
madhav

SAP has designed its system to use the standard transaction way to update any fields, no direct table update should be made.
I have seen so many direct table updates in my career, and what do you think why I have get knowledge about that?
Because it was done incorrectly.
There are that many dependcies in SAP, you never really know them all.
People changed (or deleted entries) in one table, but forgot the update in a second dependend table.
You should be a very experience consultant before you may consider direct table updates, and when you became an experience consultant, then you know that you will not do that.

Customizing Error Message in ME23N
When displaying of modifying Purchase Orders with a document type of Framework Order, a user selects the LIMITS tab, they get the error message Customizing incorrectly maintained, message number SE729.
The problem is caused by version upgrades of the SAP software.
Number of entries in table T162V is different to the number of columns in table control for screen SAPLMLSP (400). You can use screen painter SE51 to display the screen. View the Element list for TC_VIEW.
The list of fields can also be viewed within the program. Transaction code ML81N (service entry sheet), program SAPLMLSR. Click on the Configuration button (top right hand corner) select Administrator. This shows the number of fields as 67.
Using SE16N to view table T162V shows 69 fields. This table contains six layouts (variants), they must all be the same. Before the change the total count was 414 (69 x 6).
The ME23N transaction only checks that the number of entries is correct. You will notice that the fields are not in the same sequence, but that should not matter if you donot use the service transaction ML81N and it is not a selectable tab on ME23N.
Transaction SM31 was used to delete the extra fields. As this is a SAP table, you may need extra authorisations to make the change.
Note: the number of fields shown above will be different in each site. This is because of different SAP versions and in what software is loaded.

Hi karthink,
Thanks for your inputs.
we are meging two servers. In that in one server, product highrechy have been configuredand in another server not configured.
There are some materials with the numbers calling as a common parts exists in both servers.
ex: plat 0001 in one server 1 & plant 0002 in server2
Common part is : m1
plant 0001 not using product hierarchy and plant 0002 not using product hierarchy,.
After golive, all the common parts are being used by both plants and same basic data 1 view.
If we are maintaing product hierarchy in the basic data 1 view, it will flow into sales view as well.
Then what about impact on the plant 0001 business since it is not using product hierarchy.
In the configuration, is there any settings to activate / deactive product hierarchy at sales area level.
Is there any impact on MM / FICO side.
Please explain.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

ABC Indicator of material master record

Hi,
Please explain about the ABC indicator of material master record, use and in which tab it is found?
Regards,
Ashish

Hi,
I found the answer.
The ABC indicator is in MMC in MRP 1 tab.
ABC Indicator classifies a material as an A, B, or C part according to its consumption value. This classification process is known as the ABC analysis.
The three indicators have the following meanings:
A - important part, high consumption value
B - less important part, medium consumption value
C - relatively unimportant part, low consumption value

ECM revision level in material master record

Hi experts
I need to remove the last revision-number (REVLV) in a a material master record.
The ECM is not relesead and we have used tcode MM02.
I have seen that the tcode CCUNDO check the planned changes with tcode MM12.
Thx in advance
Marco

Hello Rahul ,
Please see the following link for more information regarding the Revision Level in Material Master.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/ff/5160a249d811d182b80000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
A revision level identifies a specific change status of a material with reference to a change number. It is used, for example, to identify changes affecting other areas such as Production.
You generally assign a revision level when processing a material BOM (bill of material created with reference to a material master record). However, you can also assign a revision level when processing a material master record.
You can display a revision level assigned to a material by choosing Display revision level on a departmental data screen in a material master record.
I hope this information has been helpful for you.
Best Regards,
Frank

Price Control Indicator in Material Master Record (Accounting View1)

Hi,
Is there any way to make the Standard Price (S) or Moving Average Price (V) automatically SET in Material Master Record? So that everytime we create a material, there will be no need to enter which price we prefer.

Hi,
Go to OMS2. select material type- goto detail- Tick 'Price control Mandatory".
Also if you maintain "ext pro allowed i,e,2" ,system will pick price control V automatically.
For price control S, maintain Int proc allowed as 2.

You Can identify a Field and capture the Manufactures name in that field.
Based on that some Standard Reports will be available and still if you are not meeting your requirements you can develop a Zee Reports.

Material without material master record

Dear All,
i want material without material master record by using account assignment category k. how can i do that. item category should be standard. i will use another material group with a different valuation class.
regards,
qsm sap

Hi,
In ME21N, In case of w/o material master purchases (Text Purchases), do not enter material code in PO, Enter following details;
Account Assignment Category (For e.g. K - Cost Center),
Item Category - Blank
Short Text,
Quantity,
UoM,
Material Group,
Plant,
Gross Price, etc...
Then Save it.
2. MIGO - GR w.r.t. PO
It will Debit Expense A/c and Credit GR/IR Clearing A/c.
3. MIRO - LIV w.r.t. PO
It will Credit Vendor A/c and Debit GR/IR Clearing A/c.
And if you want account determination on the basis of material group then do following config.
SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Material master > Entry Aids for Items without an material master > here assign different valuation classes to different material groups as per your Accounting requirement.
And then do necessary account determination in OBYC for the Valuation classes, T/E Key "GBB" and Val. modifier "VBR"
Also refer the following link;

Material master record: Brands

Hi
There is a field in the material master record where we can fill it with the brand of the material?
There is a field specifically for this information? Maybe we can use Prod./insp.memo in basica data2 view.
Thanks for the help
Regards
Enzo

Thanks for your answer. We are already using Ext. Material Group. The idea is use a field that is only informative and will not have impact in the future operations. Maybe using a field with configuration values brings problems in the future.
What are the information fields are used in this cases?
Define a new Characteristic and Class and assign the class under classification view is another alternative and very prolix but we have to update 50.000 materiales and we dont have the tool to do this activity.
Thanks again.
Enzo
