Batch Management in master data

Hi guys,
The company need active batch management function,So I configure the batch management in Plant leve. And I am sure the configration is right.
The problem is : Material have open business documents and inventory. So I close all open documents and issue all inventory to cost center.
Now I check inventory and quantity is zero.
But when i active bacth management in plant/location view. The system show erro message : M3530 . and system say inventroy in plant is not zero.
So I debug program. I find out system inter table catch inventory from MARD, the inter table field is not zero . But MARD all field value is zero when i query it in se16.
Why?
So anybody can help me?
System version is ECC 6.0
Thanks !

If you debugged the program and didn't find it, then you missed to look at the correct field.
SAP checks always for stocks in current and in previous period, as it is possible to post into one previous period.
Best you go into your material master with MM03 and select the plant stock view, there you should find a field that shows your previous period stock.
Alternative you can find it in MARD as well, the MARD record has previous period stock in following fields:
VMLAB
VMUML
VMINS
VMEIN
VMSPE
VMRET
you have to issue the previous period stock first, then the remaining quantity in the current period.

Hi,
For the Multi-Currency Business Partner, all the transactions will be converted to Local Currency in whatever Foreign Currency these are entered in database.
The lead currency will be Local Currency.
You can check the same in the Demo database with already available BP which is in Multi Currency. The Aging Report will display the total outstanding in asterisk (****) for multi currency BP if BP Currency is selected.
Check out these things in the Demo.

SAP MDM is master data management server. as in our SAP R/3 Customer Master, Vendor Master, Material Master, Etc. These Master Data we are maintained in conventional way means individual SAP R/3 and non-SAP itself.
However, these Master Data can store in single point source of truth and then distribute to all after consolidating the master record data. First, we will get the all Master Data (ex. Customer, Material, Etc) from Different sources (ex. SAP or non-SAP or DB) using the scenario
SAPR/3---> XI--> MDM (Outbound to SAP R/3 or Inbound to MDM)
Second,
Then we will do the all the necessary things in MDM.
Third, we will syndicate/ distribute the consolidated Master Data to all the Systems using this scenario
MDM-> XI-> SAPR/3 (Outbound to MDM or Inbound to SAP R/3)
what is acheived out here is data uniqueness acorss the system. this is one real world scenario

Data Roaming applies when roaming internationally/out of the country on an AT&T partner network.
Roaming internationally must be requested by you and approved by AT&T before doing so. This is beneficial to those who want to minimize their data roaming charges when out of the country since this is billed in full for all data downloaded and uploaded when checking and downloading email and web browsing, etc. There are no such charges when connected via Wi-Fi when roaming internationally - only when using the cellular network for data access.
Also for those who are in the country but live near the border of Mexico or Canada where cellular towers located across the border can be picked up without your knowledge.
It is off by default and you should leave it off unless you travel outside the country and need internet access other than via Wi-Fi.
Scratch the AT&T and U.S. reference - I now see you are located in Scotland but the same applies when what is considered roaming internationally on an O2 partner network.

Changing SLED date on non Batch Managed Materials

Is it possible to change the SLED date on QUANTS for Materials that are not batch managed? This date is originally recorded in the Goods Receipt (MIGO).
The SLED is displayed in the LS24 Bins Stock per Material Report.
Where this is incorrect on Batch Managed Materials the SLED date can be changed on the Batch in MSC2N, however for non Batch Managed Materials it does seem possible to change it.

The SLED field only exists in the quant when shelf life management is active in Materials Management (MM). This happens when the material master is maintained accordingly.
During a stock placement in MM you can enter either the production date or the shelf life expiration date. This depends upon whether the field Remaining shelf life has been maintained in the material master record. For example, if 10 days have been entered into this field, the system assumes that when goods are received, the production date was entered and calculates the shelf life automatically. If you leave this field empty in the material master, the system makes it possible for you to directly enter the shelf life expiration date.
This date that is entered or calculated during the goods receipt is then noted in the quant that is created in the storage bin. If you add stock to an existing quant in a storage bin, the shelf life expiration date of the new quantity that is added is lost.

What is master data management

i want know clearly abut MDM in SAP.

Hi naresh reddy ,
SAP NetWeaver MASTER DATA MANAGEMENT
SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management (SAP NetWeaver MDM) is an enabling foundation for enterprise services and business process management -- providing a single version of the truth for customer, product, employee, supplier, or user-defined data objects.
Working across heterogeneous systems at disparate locations, SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management ensures cross-system data consistency through interactive distribution. It integrates business processes across the extended value chain, delivering features and functions to enable:
Master data consolidation -- Consolidate master data for companywide analysis and reporting. SAP NetWeaver Master Data Management consolidates and cleanses master data objects from disparate systems. After consolidation, it stores information from different systems in a centralized repository. Related rich content can be included to augment the data store.
Synchronization and distribution of master data -- Enable consistent data maintenance and distribution to ensure permanent harmonization of master data. Using global attributes, you can ensure that all systems receive the same master data during distribution -- and enrich the distributed data objects with additional attribute values in the target systems. Distribution can be controlled, visible, and traceable, with active status management at each distribution step.
Centralized management of master data -- Supports companywide quality standards by ensuring that central control of master data begins as soon as the data is created. Centrally created master data can subsequently be distributed to client systems as required using interactive distribution.
Administration of master data -- Manage master data without custom code. A powerful interface supports administrative tasks such as data exception handling and assignment of role-based access to business processes and information. Data managers use the interface to configure data source merging, business rules, and distribution details to downstream applications.
Management of internal content -- Collect and centralize all your content -- including parametric information and rich content such as images, paragraphs of text, PDF documents, and organizational intelligence about content -- in an enterprisewide repository.
Catalog search -- Deploy intuitive interfaces that help you locate items internally, publish Web catalogs on e-commerce storefronts and in supplier enablement programs, and integrate easy-to-search catalogs into e-procurement solutions -- all from a centralized repository, and all at speeds surpassing normal SQL-based queries.
Print catalog customization -- Disseminate product information directly from a centralized catalog repository to popular desktop publishing programs, and automatically generate fully formatted and populated page layouts.
Multichannel syndication of product catalog content -- Publish restructured and reformatted extracts or incremental updates of your product catalog content -- and distribute them to trading partners in several delimited text and XML formats -- on an unscheduled or regular basis.
Business process support -- Enable communication in a heterogeneous environment, and insert master data into other systems.
Business analytics and reporting -- Leverage synchronized data for reliable analysis and accurate reporting.
The following websites will clearly explain u wt is MDM. These websites contain PDF & PPT presentations:

About delta loading for master data attribute

Hi all,
We have a master data attribute loading failed which is a delta loading. I have to fix this problem but I have two questions:
1. how can I find the those delta requests because I need to delete all these failed requests first, am I right ? Master data is not like cube or ods that we can find the requests in Manage, for master data how can we find them ?
2. Could you please let me know the detailed procedures to perform this delta loading again ?
Thanks a lot

Hi...
1. how can I find the those delta requests because I need to delete all these failed requests first, am I right ? Master data is not like cube or ods that we can find the requests in Manage, for master data how can we find them ?
Look.....for master data.....no need to delete request from the target..........just make the status red.......and repeat the load.....But problem is that master data sometimes does'nt support Repeat delta..........if u repeat......then load will again fail with Update mode R.........in that case u hav to do re-init.......
1) delete the init flag.......(In the IP scheduler >> in the top Scheduler tab >> Initialization option for source system)
2) Init with data transfer(if failed load picks some records)..........otherwise .....init without data transfer.....if the last delta failed picking 0 records.......
3) then Delta.......
2. Could you please let me know the detailed procedures to perform this delta loading again ?
1) Make the QM status red.........to set back the init pointer.......
2) Repeat the load.....
After that.........if again load failed with Update mode R.....
1) delete the init flag.......
2) Init with data transfer(if failed load picks some records)..........otherwise init without data transfer.....
3) then Delta.......

Master data maintanance in ECC6.0

Hi,
Master data is consistenly maintained in ECC6.0.My question is why we need sap-mdm?
Regards
Yugandhar

Hi Yugandhar,
Looking at the importance of the master data, SAP MDM is specially introduced by SAP for managing the Master Data extensively. It focusses of various issues related with master data such as Duplication, Incorrect data, Missing data, No standard of Data, No Governance with a single tool - SAP-MDM.
This tool focusses not on transactions but on complete aspects so as to how to keep the master data in an organization clean. It provides a solution to all the listed issues above and many more. We might have a complex landscape where in many SAP-non SAP systems might be integrated and might be following their own standards, etc. Hence, this tool will act as a central hub of master data and provide a single version of truth to all the systems so that we have clean, complete and only 1 version of data.
SAP ECC also can maintain the Master data but it might not be able to handle various issues related to master data efficiently. SAP-MDM has an in-built Matching capability which helps up identify the duplicates. Also there is an easy provision of MDM workflows, which helps in maintaining proper authorizations and helps in Governance.
I would advice you to go through these links to know the features and use of SAP-MDM in a better way.

Batch Management Indicator Required - Material Master

Hello,
My requirement -
Batch management field has to be required for material Type "FERT"
1) I created a new field selection group for the field "batch management" (MARA-XCHPF)
2) Created a new Field Reference group with "Required" entry (OMS9)
3) Assigned the New Field Reference to the material Type in OMS2
The batch management Field is now a mandatory field.
Issue is, when we try to create only the basic Data Views of a FERT material, system does not allow to save the material untill the "Batch Management Indicator" is activated (even if we are not referencing to any plant specific views of the material master.)
We need to have the the Batch management indicator a required entry for FERT, but at the same time should be able to create material master with basic data Field only (we would be extending the plant specific views later)
Is there a alternative method to have this setting to meet the requirements above?
Thanks

Hi
I think you can check if the batch level is defined on material or client now, if yes, you may check if that can be switched to plant level. As far as I knw the basic data is for client so the field is shown on basic data view and ask to input value as you customized.
Alternatively, I think you can use the user exit MGA00001to check the field instead of the field selection, this is called when the material master get saved, then you can write your own source code to chec if the customer filled the field only for certain situations.
Best Regards.
Leon.

Batch Management Indicator not getting set for material master

Hi,
In one of the material we need to mark the Batch Management Indicator in Material MAster. We had removed all the stocks from the material. But still we are getting error, Stock exists for the material in Plant XXX and Sloc YYY.
I checked in MARD table and MMBE that for this maaterial there are no stock for said Sloca and Plant.
One thing which I noticed in the Material Master and MARDH table that there exists some stock in Previous persiod for the said Sloc and Plant.
Need to know is this error is due to stock shown in previous period. Why system is checking the previous period stock.
How can we resolve our issue and check this Indicator.
Please let me know as earliest as possible.
Thanks
SG

Hi,
Refer OSS Note 30656 - Change base unit of measure/batch mngt requirement
Following are the details of this note;
Symptom
When maintaining a material master record, you change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator or the valuation category. The system then tells you that this change is not possible since stocks still exist. However, no stocks are shown for the material in the stock overview.
Reason and Prerequisites
The message that stocks still exist refers not only to stocks in the current period, but also to stocks in the previous period.
The reason for checking previous period stocks is that postings can also be made to the previous period when entering goods movements. This would result in inconsistencies if the base unit of measure had meanwhile been changed.
Solution
Please check whether stocks still exist for the previous period by displaying, for example, the plant stock view or storage location stock view of the material. You do this by selecting "Extras -> Previous period -> Prev. pd SLoc. stock or Prev. pd plant stock".
If previous period stocks exist, you can make a withdrawal posting as follows:
1. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period stock are identical.
2. Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
You can now try again to change the base unit of measure or the batch management requirement indicator.
Since the posting of the previous period values to zero is identical with posting to the stocks of the current period, you should reverse the above stock postings (i.e. the stock from the previous period should be booked in again) to make sure that the stock values from the previous and the current periods correspond to the state before the change. Please note, however, that the postings are then carried out using the changed master data from the current period (e.g. account determination, etc.)

How to deactivate batch management at material master?

Dear Sir/Madam,
At the configuration,I have set "Batch Management" to be activated in plant level. I have a problem which some of the plants do not use batch management.I understand that if you tick "Batch Management" field in material master, batch management is activated for the material in that plant.
1. How do prevent user to tick "Batch Management" field in the material master which appears in the following views (depending on the material types):?
- Sales: General/Plant
- Purchasing
- Plant data/Stor.1
- Work Scheduling
2. Is there any alternate way to prevent user to activate "Batch Management" in that material of their own plant despite it is activated at plant level in the configuration?
Please advise.
Thanks.
Rgds,
Esther Chong

batch status management is just what its name says, you manage your batches with status (unreastricted use, restricted use).
But his comes only into place after you have activated batch managment, it is not causing batch managment, it is only working with batch managment.
Removing batch managment is almost impossible, you have to archive all batches first, to be able to archive the batches, you have to archive the production orders...creation of a new material is in most cases easier and quicker.
Wit batch managment at plant level each plant can independently decide if a material is batch managed or not.
if you want to restrict the entry of the batch management flag, then you have to customize your material master field selection at plant level.

Unable to find the master data loaded request in manage tab

Hi All,
Iam unable to see the loaded request in the master data manage tab after some time of loading.
Immediately after loading i could see the request.If i revisit the manage tab,iam unable to see the request.
However data is available for the info object .
Can anyone please suggest on this.
Regards,
Kavya

hi Devupalli,
Note your request number, find it using RSRQ tcode. Now click on the target icon and see if it takes you to the manage of your infoobject.
There is a very common error which we sometimes make: are u sure you're checking the right thing? please check that if your infoobject has text, attribute and hierarchy, you're checking in the manage of the relevant one.
For ex, if you're loading text, you have to go to manage of the text.
Hope this helps!
