Building Material group extractor

Hello,
        My client requires an extractor to generate the material group hierarchy in BW. Since no hierarchy in R3 is maintained, we will be required to build the hierarchy through coding. This we know how to do it. My problem is how to load it to BW. Do i need to create a generic extractor or can we do it through the same extractor as Material group and make use of EXIT_SAPLRSAP_004 to load it or should we load it through file. Also what should be the minimun data that we should provide to built the hierarchy.
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hi,
Since hierarchy is not maintained in R3,
1. You directly create hierarchy manually for material group in BW.
2. You prepare file and load the hierarchy through file.
for structure of the file you can refer the following link

  • How to insert Material group field column in MCV1(QMIS: Vendor analysis - insp. lot) report ?

    Hi Experts.
    Our requirement is to get the material group column in the output report of MCV1.
    I have searched the forum but couldn't find any thread regarding the same.
    So please advice whether it is possible or not? and if possible then what is the procedure for it ?
    Thanks,

    You create Formula Columns in Data Model and display fields in Layout Model. Does "a new forum column" have a typo?
    Searching Reports Builder Help on Formula Columns would find a lot info. Fro example,
    To create or edit a formula column:
    1     In the Data Model view, single-click in the tool palette, then:
    n     To create a column within a group, click in the group at the position you want the column placed in the hierarchy.
    n     To create a report-level column, click in an open area of the canvas region.
    2     Double-click the formula column object to display the Property Palette.
    3     Under the Placeholder/Formula node, double click the PL/SQL Formula property value field.
    4     In the PL/SQL Editor, define the PL/SQL for the formula (e.g., SAL * 0.07).

  • 0material and material group

    Hi, i'm trying to get the value of "material group 1" ... "material group 5" defined in the ECC table MVKE, my question is  ...
    Is there any way to get this values for each material in the "standar" way or do i have to enhance the extractor?
    Pd. i see the texts are defined in the datasources 0matl_grp1_text ... 0matl_grp5_text, but how do i get the id in as an atribute of 0material??
    Thanks,
    Sergio.

    yes u can. but pls aware 0material are loded with 0material_attr data. make sure your transformation for 0mat_sales_attr does not overlap the fields in 0material_attr. So i would suggest u to map transformation only MATNR and MVGR5 in 0mat_sales_attr to 0material.
    However what I normally does is enhance the 0material_attr to include mvgr5

  • R3AS Load Objects - Changing Material Group Descriptions

    Hello,
    We use SAP ECC6 and SRM 5.
    We currently have some R/3 Material Groups descriptions that need changing in our ERP system.
    I am concerned with doing this as it appears that the material groups are replicated in SRM in the COMM_HEIRARCHY, albeit that they are not actually used in SRM.
    The issue I have, is when using R3AS to load the material groups, which load object should I use to just amend descriptions?
    It states in our documentation:
    DNL_CUST_BASIS3 - BASIS CRM Online. We use this for the initital load, i.e. a new build
    DNL_CUST_PROD1 - Product: Categories. We used this one for new product categories
    DNL_CUST_PROD0 - Material Number Coversions. I don't know what this is used for
    MATERIAL is for R/3 Material Master. I don't know what this is for
    Can someone please advise which load object would be relevant to use, and also clarify what DNL_CUST_PROD0 and MATERIAL is used for.
    Many Thanks
    Lisa Pallas

    Hello Lisa,
    Customizing object DNL_CUST_BASIS3: for data as Units of Measurement, currency, etc.
    Customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD1: to replicate R/3 product categories
    Customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD0: linked to customizing ( IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Master Data > Products > Define Output Format and Storage Format of Product IDs
    Business object MATERIAL: to replicate R/3 materials
    According to your need, you have only to reload customizing object DNL_CUST_PROD1.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    You can create the Infoobejct which is in the sorce table is TVEGR.
    1. Check the Object Datatype and length in TVEGR.

    Hi,
    if you want to give free goods from other group it can be possible only for EXCLUSIVE free good type
    In exclusive free goods, a material different from the orignal material can be specified as the free goods.
    Example: A customer who buys 200 crates of beer, gets 5 boxes of glasses free.
    In VBN1 >> Exclusive
    See column ADD FREE MATERIAL
    While creating Sales Order what Quantity (Gallons/No./Ltr) to be put?
    Maintain alternative units in material master >> Additional data >> Material master,BUT it is only main item
    Those item u want to give free that items unit is derived from free goods condition record and it CANNOT be change in order

  • Regarding Condition record in CRM using field MATKL (Material Group)

    Hi All
    Currently we are working in SAP CRM 5.2 and it has been connected with backend ECC 6.0.
    This scenario is about Pricing which has been maintained in ECC and inturn flows to CRM with few filters in place.
    There are few customized Condition Tables in ECC with combination of Sales org./ material group for which discount has been maintained.  A proper condition record is also available for this Condition table and it has been assigned to a access sequence and inturn assigned to a condition type.
    All these procedures, condition types, access sequence has flown from ECC to CRM.  And all the condition tables are active in IMG (Basic Functions / Pricing / Define Settings for Pricing / Create Condition Tables)
    When i check in
    (SAP menu / Master Data / Prices and Conditions / SAPCND/GCM - Maintain Conditions )
    Application - CRM,
    Maintenance group - PRODDISCOU,
    Maintenance context - GCM
    Here for the above mentioned combination when i select the Key Combination (Condition Table) and enter the customized table number (Sales org. / Material Group) iam getting a dump which says the following.

  • Material group is not updated in EINA

    Hi Experts,
    We are having a situation for EINA table. Whenever a PIR is created with reference to material, its material group is copied from table MARA to PIR, but it is not being updated in EINA table. Where as if PIR is created with refernce to material group (wthout specifying material number), that time material group is visible in EINA table. We are having ECC 5 system.
    Any pointers on this is very much appreciable.
    Thanks,
    Milind

    Hello Milind,
    Info records are kept in table EINA, either by material or material group. That is, either EINA-MATNR or EINA-MATKL is filled.        
    Never both!! Due to the fact that the field EINA-MATKL must be blank material info records with NO material master a search on this field   would require a lookup on the material master for each EINA record to find the corresponding material group. 
    "The field Eina-matkl is not to be updated because it could be changed  in material master. Therefore the solution is to initialize the field in case of inforecord with material master. This solution I described is in note 93886. You will see the material group when you display the inforecord but it is not stored in EINA.                               
    see note 444058 and 93886 ...
    Thanx & Regards,

    Assign this valaution class to G/l in OBYC.

  • 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.

  • Stock report for single material contains different material groups

    Hi Experts,
                  I have a scenario.I want to maintain material group for a material at the time of po creation.In next time i will maintain different material group for the same material.
                   But I want to view the the stocks for material group wise which i entered in po.Is it possible to achieve this?
                  Please suggest solution.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Deepika.

    Please read the KBA document  2012912 - Changeablility of the field "material group" in purchasing documents
    It clearly says that material group can't be changed in case you will use material master in purchase order.
    So, it is clear that you can't use different material group for material master in purchase order.
    For stock report, system will only show you the material group which is assigned to the material master (MARA-MATKL). System will not look into the purchase order section (like EKPO).

  • Material group Change

    9i,
    I would like to Change Material Group in Material Masterdata through MM02.
    But I have one doubt.Before Changing Material group I am tacking MC.9 Report for Stock statement.For Ecample in old Material group(xxxx) Some Stock is there 100.Like these Group XXXX qty 100.
    Then I am change New Material group YYYY in XXXX Plance.Now i am tacking MC.9 Report For Stock Statement.Now i want new Material group wise Stock only like these group YYYY qty 100.
    These is the My client Requirement.what cani do for these

    mc.9 is standard infostructure and it has got its own update rules to update the infostrcture. It wont be possible to have a retrospective update of the infostructure internal tables, and so if you are trying to analyse it for past periods, results may be wrong.

  • Product heirarchy vs material groups for sales

    Hi,
    Can I make use of the material groups(5 in toatl in sales view1) to generate report for seeing the value/sale of any material instead of using product heirarchy ?
    If I have created a 3 level heirarchy then how best I can use it to see in a report for any level.
    Is there any standard report availble to track my sales/inventory needs based on product heirarchy ??
    How can I track my purchases/open orders based on the employee resonsible for that material.i.e without having any HR module how can use the or create the staff of my company engaged in purchasing or for that matter selling also.
    May be I can use Purchasing group for each employee.But then I need to use the same employee as Sales person.
    How can this be achieved or any better option ??
    Thanks in advance.
