Authorizations for materials and material groups

Hello experts,
Is it possible to limit the authorization to make purchase requerisiton of some materials or material groups depending on the user?
I heard that it is possible be able to update some materials using the authorization M_MATE_MAT and including them in the material master, material group and user. But this also works for the creation of purchasing documents (PR,PO,RFQ,...)? Do I have to include this authorization for all the materials? If they do not have I understand that works for every people.
Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards,

Hi Madii,
             actually Authorization works at the object level, i.s if you have provided the authorization for the user to makePR with certain Material Grp, then if you dont define that grp in the PO role, but still user will get the authorization from the PR role.
why you want to allow the user to make the PR of certain Mtrl Grp for which he should not be making the PO.
or let a different Body take care of the other mtrl Grp.
Hope it helps.

Yawar Khan

  • Assign Source of supply is not working for contract with material group

    Dear Experts,
    I have searched all the threads and gone through before posting my query. So i would ask moderators to go through the thread properly before rejecting this.
    We have value contracts with respect to a particular material group without material and with item category W in the contract item, Please note that for the materials with this material group, the source determination is not set and source list is also not maintained.
    When we create PR for the material with this contract, and when we click on assign source of supply contracts used to get popped up, but recently from few days, when we click on assign source of supply we are getting an error " no source found for this item ".
    Can anybody help on this.
    Regards

    @ Biju,
    As mentioned earlier, we are not creating PR with reference to contract.
    first we are creating contract with item category W (material group), without material and plant details.
    we create PR with or without material with account assignment K and with the material group in the transaction ME51N, and after inputting all the fields, we click on assign source of supply, it was proposing the existing contracts with respect to material group earlier, but it is not happening for particular material group(it is working for all other material groups)
    Hope it is clear.
    @ Dev Patra,
    we are using DIEN-Service material types and we assign that particular material group to only service material type.
    we have not ticked, source list in the material master, we donot have any source list for the materials under that material group.( please check the note 457110- question number 14.)

  • Link b/w item category and material group

    Hi All,
       Is there any link between item category and material group.
    Regards
    Pavan

    Hi Pavan,
    Item Category
    Item Category is a control field that allows the PR to follow the correct path for the correct path for that category of PR. The SAP system is delivered with a set of item categories
    Blank -Standard
    K- Consignment
    L- Sub Contracting
    S- Third Party
    D- Service
    U- Stock Transfer
    Selecting an item category allow the display of certain fields and not others
    For Ex: If PR item has an item category K for conignment then invoice receipts will not be allowed
    Material Group
    Material group is a method of grouping of similar materials.It is defined either by using classification or by configuration. It is important not only for seracing the materials but also in other areas of purchasing
    A purchace inforecord can be created with out a material number but must require materail group and vendor
    Material group is configured through Tcode WG21 
    And i do not find any link between them
    I hope this gave you the clarity
    In case of any more information required do get back
    If found helpful reward accordingly
    Thanks & Regards

  • Division and material group

    What is the use of maintaining divisions and material groups in material master since both group materials?

    Hi,
    Material group in the material master is used to group the materials having same attributes.This is used in searching material master records via search help. Division is used for determination of Business Area & Sales area. This helps in extracting different financial statements based on the business area.

  • Constrict the authorization for materials in SD-Order

    Hi,
    this is my first post in SDN, i hope I can find a solution to my question here...
    I want to constrict the authorization for materials in SD-orders.
    I tried using the authorization group in material view 'basic data1', but this seems to be unique to the material data maintenance.
    what authorization object can be used?
    Many thanks!
    Sebastian Weiss

    Thank you for your answer,
    i already tried this.
    here are my settings in the TA PFCG:
    M_MATE_MAR:
    ACTVT     03
    BEGRU    BL
    M_MATE_MAT:
    ACTVT     03
    BEGRU   BL
    M_MMATE_WGR:
    ACTVT     03
    BEGRU   BL
    I want to authorize the usage of the material data in an SD-Order, not the material maintenance.
    We have two groups of users. Group 1 is allowed to use certain materials. These materials must not be used by users of group 2.
    what can i do to solve this problem? what options do I have?

  • How to authorization sales office and sales group in VA21 and VA01 t-code

    I need to authorization sales office and sales group in va21,va22,va23 and va01, va02, va03 to control users access the sales order.
    I found some articles how to resolve this problem.I have created new authorization object Z_VBAK_ VKO, and add these fields to the object: VKORG: Sales Organization, VTWEG:Distribution Channel, SPART: Division, VKBUR:Sales Office, VKGRP: Sales Group, AUART:Sales Document Type, ACTVT:Activity
    I have add the object Z_VBAK_VKO to va01, va02, va03 in SU24 translation.
    I test the authorization , but fail, va01 and va02 do not check the authorization.
    Why? what can i do? please help me .
    thanks

    Dear Wu
    I think you are using the concept of Master Roles and Derived Roles.If ur using then create a master role and derived role for the authorisation group you want. And in the derived role assign the specifics to the respective logins ID. If you want to attach the authorisation to the T-Codes Va01 or VA21 etc then you have to use Exit.
    Correct me if i am wrong.

  • Duty calculation for import PO for a specific material group

    Hi All,
    As per company requirement, we need to do changes in duty calculation for import PO for a specific material group.
    Current scenario :  Currently  duty calculating on MRP with abatement  35% ( We have ABTT condition @ 35% of MRP).
    For example:
    Material: ABC , Basic Price = 1000, MRP = 2000 and duty is 10%
    Duty  Amt = 2000(MRP) - 700(35% ABTT) *10%(Duty) = 130
    Cess 2 % = 2.6
    Ecess 1 % = 1.3
    Total duty =  133.9
    This duty (133.9) paid to custom vendor and loads in material cost.
    New Requirement:  For vendor payment purpose duty should be calculate as above but  for material cost should be calculated on Basic price.
    For Example:    
    Material: ABC , Basic Price = 1000, MRP = 2000 and duty is 10%
    Duty  Amt = 1000(BP) *10%(Duty) = 100
    Cess 2 % = 2
    Ecess 1 % = 1
    Total duty =  103 ( It should load in Material cost)
    New Condition Diff Duty Amt = (1300-1000)*10% = 30
    Cess 2 % = .6
    Ecess 1 % = .3
    Diff Duty Amt = 30.9 ( It should not be added in material Cost)
    Paid to custom vendor = 103 + 30.9 = 133.9
    Kindly suggest how to achieve this.
    Regards
    Jitendra

    Hi,
       Please check whether the requirement is logical or not.  Did you check the requirement with your accounts team?
       If you have different duty calculation for MIGO and MIRO, how the GL accounts will get balanced? As of my understanding, the requirement is clearly not logical.

  • Derivation rule for Product from Material Group

    Dear All,
    Is it possible derive product from Material Group. The scenario is as below.
    We executed KE30 report (Classic Drill down) for Product, the we are able to see the profitability for different products, when we click on the list button (Find button) againist the product at the bottom we found not assigned, we selected that and we found there are some un assigned amounts (without product). when we see the line items for the same the line items are coming with out product ( product field is emply)
    Another observation is we created profitability assessment cycle (KEU5) in which cost center is the sender and material group is the receiver. when we run this cycle system is not distibuting the costs to the products, in the sender and receiver its executed with zero values.
    In derivation rule KEDR we gave the logic to derive product from material group.
    please guide the way which we are following is correct or not. can we derive product from material group.
    Thanks,
    Siva Reddy.S

    Hi
    Yes you can derive using "Derivation" method in KEDR and maintain a mapping of Mat Grp to Product... But that is not the right way
    You need to find out why some lines are posted w/o products.. They can be genuine cases....
    Also for assessment, either specify the Product as receiver or run KE28 Top Down Dist in order to allocate values from Mat group to Products..... Deriving Product from Mat group does not seem to be the nice way

  • Default VAT 4 % for 1 particular material group

    How to map it?

    Hi,
    For the VAT condition type, maintain access sequence with the field material group and then create the tax condtion using FV11 for the said material group with 4% tax rate. All subseqent PO's created with that particular Material Group will automatically calculate VAT with 4% based on the conditon record, Pl check

  • Authorization for Infotypes and Actions

    Hi Experts,
    In my project i have a requirement to give authorization to individual infotype level and also give authorization for each and every PA40 actions .
    Please give me a solution if any.
    thanks..
    Avik

    Hello:
    For authorization to individual infotype, use object P_ORGIN, authorization field INFTY. In here you can specify individual infotypes, and also authorization level on field AUTHC:
    R - Read access
    W - Write access
    M - Matchcode access
    E, D - Enqueue, dequeue access (Asymmetrical double verification principle)
    S - Symmetrical (Symm. double verification principle)
    For authorization for each and every action, use:
    INFTY: 0000 (Actions infotype)
    SUBTY: ## (Specific actions)
    This is done with basis team cooperation in transaction PFCG.
    Hope this helps
