Changing Currency in Material Master

Hi Gurus,
I have a material in plant A which has currency as USD since company code currency for that plant is USD, now business wants to change it to CAD,
Can we do it & what are the side effect for it?

Hi
Normally currency field we'll not maintain it in Material master. The company code currency will be maintained at company code. In general changing the currency is not advisable. Before u do any transaction u can change the currency. If already transactions happened how the new currency will suit to the system need some exploration.
Regards,
Raman

  • How to change currency in material master

    Could you please tell me multiple way to change currency in material master (mm02/mm02). Currency is under Costing2 tab in material master.
    Thanks..

    Hi,
    In <b>SPRO</b>, u can change the Cuurency.
    The Exchange Rate Type is used to store currency conversion rates for different purposes, in the R/3 System.
    If the R/3 System is to perform exchange rate conversions between a large number of different currencies, it can be simplified by specifying a base currency per particular exchange rate type. Then specify the exchange rates of all currencies in relation to the base currency for the exchange rate type concerned.
    In accordance with legal requirements, the base currency (EUR) must be defined as the From currency for currency conversions within the EMU (European Monetary Union). To do this, set the indicator in the field BCurr = From.

  • Currency in Material Master

    Hi SAP Guru's
                         My currency field in MM01 in the accounting view has been defined as EUR. I want to change it to UNI. How can I change it?
    Thanks

    Currency is defined in Company code not in Material master

  • Change number in material master required steps to use

    Hi All.

    Dear Parameshwar,
    1.I assume you have created a change number without release key in CC01.
    2.In CC02,for the same change number goto object types and include the check box against material for the first 3 check box and
    save the change number.
    3.Now check in MM02 for any material master changes or I would suggest you to create a new change number with valid from
    date as current date,include the settings for material under object types and then check in MM02.
    Check and revert.

  • Change logs for material master are cut

    Hi,
    I am having a problem with material master logs. I am not able to get the complete logs for the changes made on a partcular material.  It is displaying the change log from today to 2006 but i want to check till 2001. As of now it is cutting it till 2006.
    Where as in the quality system i am able to see the complete log but not in our production system.
    The way to view material master changes is display any material and go to Enivornment menu and select display changes.
    Regards,

    It is possible to archive change documents independent of the objects they belong to.
    Usually you would archive a material master and at the same time all change logs get archived too with object MM_MATNR
    But as already said. It is possible to archive change logs independtly with object CHANGEDOCU
    so execute SARA, enter CHANGEDOCU and click the administration button. If you see archives that were recently created, then you can be sure that your logs got archved.

  • Re: Changes in the material master.

    Hi guru's,
    The vendor supplies the material 1 box which consists of 20 pieces, we known that in the material master the unit of measure for alternate UoM is maintained as 10 pieces (in additional data tab). If I make changes as the receipt from vendor as 20 pieces instead of 10 pieces already maintained, what are the consequences I face. its ur pl.
    thanks

    Hi,
    Once you make changes in material master ( from 10 to 20) then when you make the GR then system will make GR for 20 quantities (After makeing changes in MM you have to again change the conversion in PO in quantities tab). 
    So after making GR, quantities & stock value will be updated as per data mentoned in PO conversion.
    If you make any new PO then system will pick bydefaut the conversion in PO from the material master.(i.e. 20 qty for 1 pc)

    Hi Satyajit,
    Please look at OSS  Note 1069560 - Data inconsistencies: Activating integration. models in parallel, if this helps you.
    Since  Gross data of material is in the basic view, it is common across plants , whereas, IMs are normally designed to have material masters at plant level.
    We may have same material in different IMs with different  plants. Therefore changes of the basic view fields are then contained in multiple IMs.  SAP advises to have a larger IM or sequential activation of IMs.
    I hope this will  help you .

  • Availability Check Changed on the Material Master Update Existing Orders

    I need to know if there is a way to update existing orders once changes have been made to the material.  Currently the only way that I know of is to go into individual orders change the plant save then change it back to the original plant on the order then the changes take effect.  How can I achieve this without touching every order individually.  Is there something to mass update existing orders to take a new snapshot of the material master settings for a material.

    Try with t.code VA05 - Open sales order list.
    Execute this list. In the output, sort the data by plant. Then go to menu Edit -> mass change -> new plant. Change the plant for group of sales orders that have similar plants. Then again do the same thing to bring the previous plant in the sales orders.
    This can help reduce the time instead of going one by one.

  • Change number of material master

    Hi gurus
    can anyone pls explain the importance of change number field in the initial screen while creating a material master( mm01)
    regards
    john

    Hi,
    Please look help data
    Change Number
    Number used to uniquely identify a change master record.
    The data that contains all information required for managing a change.
    The master record contains descriptive data, such as the reason for the change, and data with control functions, such as valid-from date and indicators for object types. In addition to this data, which can be updated directly, there is data that the system updates automatically, such as administrative data.

  • Tracking changes in the material master

    Hi All,
    I have a material master 123456.
    In this I have batch_class  023 type. I have a characteristic COLOUR which is assigned to the batch_class.
    For this characteristic there are 2 options RED and BLACK.
    When I created the material master I had assigned RED colour. I did some transaction also.
    After 2 days when I went inside the material master, I found BLACK insteadof RED.
    I want to know who did this changes? I am not able to track this from the mm03--material master changes.
    How do i track the changes?
    Regards,
    Narendra Bora

    in MM04 i think you may not be able to find the classification changes.
    i wouls suggest you to activate change logs on AUSP table a prerequisite of change logs is activating multi object assignments. This entails running program RCCLUKA2 which converts KSSK and AUSP to internal number (more information on the program/procedure can be found in the documentation of the program).
    this can help you to find the change log on the classificaiton values.

  • Change UOM in Material Master Problem

    Hi all expert,
    Im trying to change a raw material UOM from KG to Liter in material master, i have deleted all the document related to the raw material, but when i change the UOM, it display message as below:
    Material Master Maintenance
    The base unit of measure cannot be changed.
    The reasons for this are:
    Independent requirements are already assigned to the material.
    Plant MRP area
       JK01  
    I can't find the independent requirements so can't delete it.
    Hope someone can give me advise.
    Very thanks for help.

    You can also see the planned ind. req. for  your material from Txn. MD63                                                                               
    If you delete the ind. reqs. no longer appear when you access via trans.       
    MD62/MD63.  However, the records are still in table PBIM with a                
    deletion flag set on field LOEVR, so,  you have to do the planned              
    independent requirements reorganization as described in note 135807.                                                                               
    I hope this can help you !!!

  • Change History of Material master classification data

    Dear all.
    How can we see the change history of the Material master classification data.
    Whether any standard report exists which can give this Change History data or whether we can find from  any tables?
    Please let me know your thoughts on this
    Regards
    Shyam

    changes in values for a characteristic can be monitored in CL20N via menu Environment > Change documents
    change history for classification is only stored if you activated this.
    if  it is not set active in your system, then see SAP Note 943559 - FAQ: Frequently asked questions about the classifctn. system
    it has instruction how to active it.

  • Change Log of Material Master

    Hi Guys,
    Is there a way to change the "General Item Category Group" field in the material master without updating the change log. I am under the impression that It cannot be done without updating the change log.
    But in my existing change log I can see the below lines:
    "zexp" to "zsto" in 01.01.2005
    "zexp" to "norm" in 10.03.2006.
    There is no  change log reflecting the change from "zsto" to "zexp".
    Awaiting for inputs,
    thanks
    Ramakanth

    Hello Ramakanth,
    If data is changed with batch input (LSMW) then it will not come under change log.
    Hope this helps.
