Thanking you
Dineshkumar kannan,

hi.
As per your Analysis if Any Expert says it is not possible.
U can Achieve.. by using Sdk.
plz have a look on below image...
Each item master or Bp master is having 3 Radio buttons
Active
inactive
Advance....
Through the Sdk code i have done the Requirement ....long back ago...
Step1: If any body open the item master it should be in In Active mode...So, they are adding the new item master...
Note: The item will be adding but , We can not post the Transactions like Sales order others....
once it is active only We can do the transactions..
Step2: i am using Sdk ... a Small message will go to the Approver....
Step3:I create a customization Form once Approver Approve the Document ..... i make it item master in Active to active......
If it is not usefull. just ignore it....
Bp master is also same process................

Item Master Data - Min Inventory

In Item Master Data, the inventory tab, is it possible to change (Through DTW) the Min.Inventory field? If so which DTW template do I use?

Hi......
Yes it is possible.....
For this you have to use WarehouseInfo template with which you have to run WarehouseInfo_OITW and Item Master data template both simultaneously.......
The template is there in the same folder of Item Master Data......

Impacts in COPA of changing material and customer master data

Dear experts,
In my company we are considering following scenario:
Currently mySAPerp 6.0 is implemented for all modules for the mother company.
We have developed a new global template where there are significant changes versus the existing system, especially in the SD processes. Material and customer master also change significantly in terms of content in the tables/fields and/or values in the fields.
The idea was to build the template from scratch in a new machine and roll-out all group affiliates, but now we are considering the possibility of making an evolutionary of the current system and try to stretch it to the processes defined in the global template.
The scenario we want to analyze is: Keeping same organizational structure in terms of Company code, CO area and Operating Concern in existing SAP client and make an evolutionary of the existing settings to the global template processes.
The doubts we are having are the following:
Changing material & customer master data: Impact in COPA
Option 1: Material master data and customer master data codes are maintained but content in the tables/fields is changed substantially, both in terms of logical content of specific fields and/or the values in the specific fields. We have following examples of changes.
Case 1: source field in material master changes logical content. E.g. Material master field MVGR1 is currently used for product series (design line) and the content changes to be the Market Segment. The product series will be moved to a classification field. At least 5 other fields are affected by this. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 2: the source field is not changed so that the logical content of the field remains but the values change, i.e. for the same concept there will be different codifications. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 3: Characteristics where currently the source material master field is a Z field and the derivation is via table look up and where the Z field changes to a classification field. How can you convert the existing COPA line items to ensure that attributes are aligned? Should new characteristics be created or just change the derivation logic of the characteristic?
Option 2: Material master data and customer data codes are re-created (codification of records is changed), meaning that new material and customer codes will exist and content in tables/fields is changed (as in option 1)
Case: material and customer codes are changed. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Iu2019ve never phased a similar scenario and I fear that maintaining operating concern while changing source master data and also SD flows (we have new billing types, item categories, sales doc. Types, order reasons) may lead to inconsistencies and problems in COPA.
I would like to ask you experts if you have come across a similar scenario and if from your experience, it is something feasible to do or there are many risks involved. What can be the impact of this scenario in existing Operating Concern for both option 1 and 2 and what would be the key activities to perform to adapt the existing operating concern. What will be the impact of the needed conversions on P&L reporting?
Sorry for the long story. I hope you can help me out.
Thanks and Regards,
Eric

Hi,
First i think you will need to test if it works for new COPA documents created via billing.
If it works fine then the issue is if you wish to apply these changes to the historical data already posted.
Normally there are transactions like KE4S where you can repost the billing document to COPA
However this may not be viable for bulk postings
You can perform realignment (KEND) but this only works at the PA segment level (table CE4XXXX)

Item Master Data Creation - Statuses

Greetings,
My client is looking for best practice - status naming conventions for Item Master Data Creation Process. They are in the Specialized Retail Industry and have internal naming conventions and want to align more with Industry Standards. Their process has 3 staging areas - 1st - Baseline Master Data, 2nd - Internal Enrichment, 3rd - Item Master Complete - item master is now ready to be used to build offers.
thanks!
MC

Hi Mir - thanks for taking time to respond. I think my question might have been confusioning. Its process related. The client starts creating their item master with a minimal amount of information required to create a PO- (stage1 - example status would be "Available to Procure") the master then gets enriched with more internal information such as classifications and attributes to be consumed by other business areas and down stream processes specific to their business - such as building an offer for Web or TV (stage2 - example status would be "Available to Build Offer"). Client is looking for advice on what to name Stage 1 and Stage 2 status
Any thoughts?

END
end
-- Select the return values

end

Hi Rathna,
Just put the SP like this, without the -- before the IF. A -- marks the line as a command therefore you need to uncomment and it will work.
IF @OBJECT_TYPE = '59' AND (@TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'A' or @TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'U')
BEGIN
   IF EXISTS(
    SELECT T0.Price FROM IGN1 T0
    where IsNull(T0.Price, '0') = '0' and T0.DocEntry = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
   BEGIN
    SELECT @ERROR=1,@ERROR_MESSAGE='Please insert the price !'
END
end
Hope it helps

Error while importing Item MAster Data using DTW

Hi,
when we are importing item master data using items template
it is giving error.
Error:":connected value 1 was not found "
can any one send the oitems template that is working fine wthout any error.
Thanks,
Neetu

You cannot import data prepration templates>>Testcase1_Test Data for Import function>Oitems directly.
You will have to do certain prerequisites like setting CommissionGroup, CommissionPercent, CommissionSum,CustomsGroupCode etc., in SAP before importing Items.
So I would like you to try out with minimum fields in the template and import. After understanding, you can import the required fields.
I suggest you to use the template from "C:\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates\Templates\oItems"

Error while importing Item Master data through DTW

Hello Expert,
I trying to import item master data through DTW but it gives an error while importing as shown in attach file..
Please help me...
I am using SAP 9.0 Pl 6
Regards,
Sandy

Hi Sandy,
Kindly follow the check list
1. Right Click DTW and run it as Administrator.
2. Is your DTW version is same as SAP B1.
3. Uninstall and re-install DTW.
4. If you are using 64-bit DTW, try to use 32-bit one.
5. Check the Template, is it of the same DTW version.
6. Remove all the unnecessary columns.
7. Last try different Template extension.. (e.g: CSV (Comma delimited), or Text (Tab delimited))
Hope you find this helpful......

Unit Price in Item Master Data

Step no.1) At time of Defining Item Master Data we are Defining Unit Price say<b> 2,000</b> <b>INR.</b> Data Saved in Price List 01.
Now with this information I am Preparing Purchase Order.After Selecting Specific Item unit price is reflecting in P.O by default, Then I modified Unit price from 2000 INR to 2500 INR in P.O.
Step no 2) I received material by Goods Receipt PO
Step no 3) When I am posting A/P Invoice based on GoodsReceipt PO in invoice the original Master Data Unit price is Reflecting.
Now vice versa I made another Transaction also in Another System.
In Step no 3 it is reflecting the Unit Price of Purchase Order.
Can I know why it gives different Information for same type of Transaction. Does I followed wrong System.
Regards
Narender

Please confirm the following.
Once you select a Price in PO it should carry all the way through at the AP Invoice and should not change unless changed manually.
Are you copying the PO > Goods Receipt PO > AP Invoice
And when copying to Goods Receipt PO or Invoice you are not changing the price or Pricelist
Pls let me know

Linking UDO to Item Master Data

Hello Everyone
I just created a User Define Object to store alternative codes for items. In the master data i put all the itemcodes and a description. In the Master Data rows I store all the alternative codes and the supplier that item can have. Sometimes they are few alternativa codes, sometimes a lot
Now I want for the these UDO be related to the Item Master Data so it can me update in the same place. Any ideas?

Ok. These how the UDO works now:
In the master data level, i use the itemcode. When i double click the line, it takes me to another table with the alternative codes for that specific itemcode only
I added a UDF to the item master date and linked to the table (i tried linking them to the udo but could not find how) so it shows all the rows in the table, not just the ones matching that item. I tried with 2 UDF but still could not relate the two. Any ideas how???
Can it be done with the Screen Painter?? Where can i fin documentation about the Screen Painter usage?? I only found documentation on installation

Maximum number of Item Master Data

Hi! is there anyone, who used SAP B12007 for more than 1,00,000 item master data? I would like to know the issues in this context, if there is any.

Hi
Your question is good, but in SAP there is no limit. The main thing is yr system Requirement will be better to give fast and rapid performance.
U can enter as many item u can no limit from SAP side.

"Req. Inv. Level" in the Item Master Data - Inventory Data

Dear All,
Would like to ask what is the function of the "Req. Inv. Level" in the Item Master Data -> Inventory Data ??
What is the different with Min. Inventory?
And what is the different with Item Master Data -> Planning Data -> Minimum Order Qty ??
Thank you very much!!!

Dear All,
Thank you for your reply.
i found something strange for the MRP, it is as the following:
at 06.11.2009, i have created 1 SO : SO123
qty: 150
due date: 10.11.2009
for the Minimum Order Qty in Planning Data: 200
Lead time: 2 days
when i run MRP, it can show at 10.11.2009, qty 200 is needed to be purchase (it match the Minimum Order Qty in Planning Data:200)
But when i set the lead time to be 10 days), it only show at 10.11.2009, qty 150 is needed (in red font).
Question: seems if the date for the material to arrive (06.11.2009+10 days = 16.11.2009, which is excess the due date of the SO 10.11.2009) is over the due date (10.11.2009) then the MRP will just show qty150 instead of showing qty 200 (the Minimum Order Qty) ? so after that when create the PO by using Order Recommendation Report, it qty in the PO is 150 only, but not 200.
is it how the MRP in B1 works?
thank you very much!!
