Accounting & costing view in the material master
hi
my client wanted to block the accounting & costing view in the material master for the end users
what i need to do
Hi,
You can (Authorization material master by views of accounting & costing ) achieve this by way of authorization control. In transaction PFCG, select your role for creating / changing the material master. Select option Maintenance statuses. Then at change status option select views that you want to give the authorization to the users. Create profile & save the role. Now assign the role to the users. They will get only those views you have selected. You have to select those views in all the roles related to material master (create, change, display).Better Consult Basis Consultant,

Currency in the Accounting View of the Material Master
Hi everyone!
The accounting tab/view in the Material Master has currency in the General Data tab. In our case, the currency is defaulted to PHP. I found the field in SPRO but it is non-configurable. Is there anyway I could it in other SPRO field so that I could configure it to changable currencies (for example, I wanted to change from PHP to USD, etc.)
Thank you so much.It will be Picked up From the Comp Code Currency..
As the Plant is assigned to Comp Code, when you create the Material for that Plant ..
It will pick up from the Comp Code Currency..
You can check Comp Code Currency in OBY6 trxn..

Open field for cost center on the material master
We have a unique requirement in a facility we intend to implement plant maintenance in to track a cost center to a material by including the cost center on the material master somewhere. Cost center is not a field on any of the material tabs we use for maintenance materials, but the requirement is just that it is tracked in a field, even if it's just an open field like a "user defined field" or another field not used often. We realize there are disadvantages such as the field not being checked against active cost centers, but we are looking at options short of adding cost center as a field manually to a tab (which I believe would require ABAP assistance). I don't think there are any other fields/tabs we are currently not utilizing but I could be wrong... The best option we can think of is adding it in a material characteristic so it shows on the classifications tab, but I thought I would see if anyone has any other ideas.
ThanksNot sure what is the need of cost center on material master when you want to implement Plant maintenance module. Do you have any specific requirement for this?
Ideally cost center will be derived from either functional location/ equipment (equivalent of material master) on to PM work order or notification.
Can you elaborate the requirement?
After all if you wish to go with cost center, then I suggest it should be at plant level as PM requires plant level distribution. You can add up a custom field and give the reference of cost center data element with help of developer. -

Label Data view in the material master
Hi all,
I read this SAP help portal that said "The Label Data view in the material master allows you to display or edit label data that is specific to the material. "..
may I know where I can find this view in the material master?
Thanks
KarenDear Karen,
This "Label Data" is one View in Material Master.
While creating the Material using T.Code MM01, when you are on the Selection screen of Various views, it is Last Option.
i.e. Lable Data
If this view is not there while creating the Material. then it is MM Configuration.
That view is assinged to Material Type.
See in Material Master, Industry Sector and Material Types controls these Views. So with the help of MM Consultnat you
have to get that View Configured to your Material Type.
If you find my answer satisfactory, please grant me the points.

Deleting QM View in the material master
Hi
Is their any way we can delete the QM view in the material master , once it is created
Thanks
JJHi
Deleting a QM view is not possible
what You can do ...is Deactivate all Inspection Types that you have assigned by QA08
or do mass changes using MM17(MARA & MARC) and remove all fields.
It is as good as removing QM view.
Note:
u can set deletion flag at plant level or client level. ONce u do that u can delete that particular material from that plant using sara transaction . But note that all view at that plant level vl be get deleted
so better to make it blank

New Text in the Sales Text View in the Material Master
Hi All,
I want to create new text ID in the material master sales text tab
Can you please help me in how to create the new text for material master sales text tab view.
Regards
RajeshWell it may not be possible by standard SAP to create in Material.
AN alternative might be to use a standard text type and then call it in your Text Determination Procedure.
T-code "SO10" --> Give "Text Name & Text ID & Language --> Click at "Create" --> On next screen --> Go to (Menu) --> change editor --> Write the text which you want
Go to VOTXN , and maintain the required confirguation to get this standard Text copied to the material during order processing.

in daily practice user convert unrestricted stock to project stock with 412 Q mvt type before MRP RUN.
but for some when user try to convert stock following error occurs. I check stock available, it is available. but i do not understand why this error comes.
Maintain the valuation class in the material master first
Message no. M7232
Diagnosis
The system found that you have defined your own valuation classes for sales order stock and project stock in Customizing. However, these valuation classes have not been maintained in the material master record for the materials concerned.
Procedure
So that the relevant accounts can be posted upon goods movements, you have to maintain the valuation classes for sales order and project stock in the accounting view of the material master record for the material concerned.
If you have authorization to do so, you can change the material master record.Hi,
The normal valuation stock refer to relevant table valuation class field MBEW/MBEWH-BKLAS
Special Sales Stock refert to MBEW/MBEWH-EKLAS
Projeck Stock refer to MBEW/MBEWH-QKLAS

Help needed in seeing the material master.
Hi all,
How can i see the sales area info in a system. i.e. what material is assigned to what sales area, the mapping between the sales org., distr. channel, division and plants? I ask this because when I see some tabs/views in mm03, it asks me the sales area info and I dont know what to give there.. so in effect i get to see only some views in the material master.
Thanks,
Charles.Hi Charles,
If you want to know all those materials which have a Sales View, you can go to
MARA table and search for all those materials that have a 'V' in MARA-PSTAT field. Later you can use MM03 to see the sales data for that materials.
Procedure:
se16 transaction.
Give V in PSTAT field n selection criteria. and execute.

Update of cost in the material master
Hi all,
From the purchasing point of view,In the normal process Cost in the Material master gets updated from purchasing documnents automatically.In this case,manually if the cost is changed in the purchase order affects the cost in the material master.My requirement is this should be done automatically after receiving the vendors confirmation of list of material costs.There may be chance of change in the cost of the materials.so the costs of the materials which were changed should get updated in the material master automatically(VPRS).
Ie changing of the costs of the materials in the purchase order should be reduced .How this will done??
If we have more than 2000 line items in the purchase order,it will be quite little bit difficult to update each material cost in the purchase order .
Thanks in advance..
Regards...VMHi,
Normally material will be valuated with two types of price controls S -standard price and V-moving avaerage price.
A std price as its name indicated it is std and will not chnage.
A moving average price will chnage accordingly with the change in the material price.
Normally it will be better create a info record for the material and vendor combination for the plant or purchase organisation with a info update indicator in the purchase order will serve your pupose .
With the proper settings at SPRO system creates info record during creation of PO if it does not exist or updates the existing record if it has one with the latest price details in the form of last purchasing document so that these details get defaulted during creation of PO.
However you can create a outline aggrement so that a PO can be created with reference to that.
Or you can create a condition record for the price for your combination so that it can get defaulted.
The price which is there in PO will not be defaulted to material master.
Or time to time you can review the prices and maintain via MR21.

Hello,
With regards to the material master data:
(a) are there more views to a material that are dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
(c) why does the basic data depends on the plant?Hi Shadmi!
Here is d answers,
a) are there more views to a material that are dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
--- Except Basic Data1 and Basic Data2 all other views are plant dependent.
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
--- Because these datas may vary plant by plant. For example cost of material may change from plant to plant since it depends upon in which price the vendor is supplying to you.
(c) Why does the basic data depends on the plant?
--- Not at all. Basic data view is specific to company code level.

Screen Level Security for the Material Master
We need to create security for the material master by screen views. The Purchasing group needs to be able to change the Purchasing and MRP screens but none of the other screens. How would we accomplish this with SAP security?
Thanks!Janet,
It is hard for us to know how your authorization profiles or roles are constructed. You really should consult your local authorization expert.
The Authorization object you are looking for is M_MATE_STA. It is probably contained in at least one of your Roles or Profiles that are currently assigned to your MM maintenance people. At a minimum, it should exist in standard SAP profile M_MATE_ALL in your system. You can review all of these types of authorization info in the User Information System (transaction SUIM).
You would have to create roles or profiles that narrowly define the "User department" fields for M_MATE_STA object. You would also have to search for existing roles/profiles that contain "*" in this field, and determine if these entries are still appropriate in your new authorization business process you want to begin.
Below is the SAP help about this authorization object
M_MATE_STA
Definition
Maintenance status authorization for material master records
The data contained in a material master record is divided into user departments or views (Purchasing, MRP, and so on). The maintenance status is a single-character key for the relevant user department or view.
This object determines which user departments or views a user is authorized to process; that is, which data he or she may process from this view.
Note
To use material master functions, a user needs the authorization for at least one user department.
Defined Fields
Fields Possible values Meaning
ACTVT 01 User may create data.
02 User may change data.
03 User may display data.
06 User may flag data for deletion.
08 User may display change documents.
STATM Here, you specify the maintenance status for which the user is authorized.
The maintenance statuses possible are as follows:
User department Maintenance status
Work scheduling A
Accounting B
Classification C
MRP D
Purchasing E
Production resources/tools F
Costing G
Basic data K
Storage L
Forecasting P
Quality management Q
Warehouse management S
Sales V
Plant stocks X
Storage location stocks Z
Notes
This authorization object also determines:
o Whether a user may flag a material master record for deletion. In this case, 06 must be entered in field ACTVT; the maintenance status is irrelevant here.
o Whether a user may change the material type. In this case, 02 must be entered in field ACTVT; the maintenance status is irrelevant here.
o Whether a user may process an MRP profile or forecast profile. In this case, the following values must be entered in field ACTVT:
- 01 to create
- 02 to change or delete
- 03 to display
The maintenance status must be D for the MRP profile or P for the forecast profile.
o Whether a user may create an overview of all extendable materials. In this case, 01 must be entered in field ACTVT; the maintenance status is irrelevant here.
o Whether a user may call up the materials list. In this case, 03 must be entered in field ACTVT; the maintenance status is irrelevant here.
o Whether a user may create or change production versions from task lists. In this case, 02 must be entered in field ACTVT, and A in field STATM.
