Changing Roles due to creation/modification of Material Groups

Hi,
I am a SAP Security consultant and new in this domain. Recently a lot of new Material groups have been added to the SAP ECC6.0 and SAP SRM system. This has created a lot of conflicts in the roles currently assigned to the users. Can you let me know how can I detect which Material group is affecting which Role? I tried searching the AGR_1251 table but couldn't find anything useful.
Regards,
Anup

But i think AGR_1251 is the most useful one since here if you enter MATKL in the FIELD name then you will get all the data or otherwise you can enter the particular material group in LOW field

Restrict material groups at PR/PO creation for items w/o material master

Dear SAP experts
I have one question related to restricting material groups which are possible for selection during purchase requisition or purchase order creation.
The material group is created and several material master records are linked to it. Now the requirement is that when users are creating either purchase requisitions or purchase orders it shouldn't be possible to select that specific material group>
But this should be valid only if PR or PO are being created for items without material master record. If PR/PO is created for item with material master record then the restriction should not take place.
What would be the nicest solution to achieve that?
Thank you all in advance for your help.

Miha

Hello Prakash
Thank you very much for your answer. i think it is a very good starting point.
However I am not too familiar with authorization group configuration of material groups.
Right now in our system (transaction OMSF) field authorization group is empty for all existing material groups.
Does this mean that for the material group that I want to have restricted I need to have two entries: one with Authorization group ZOK and another with ZNOTOK (or whatever the naming would be)?
Furthermore I would like to ask you where is then the link between authorization group and user exit?
And thirdly: do you perhaps have some more details which user exit(s) are relevant for our topic?
So far thank you very much and I hope that you can provide me also with additional info.

Material group chang even when request is rejected

Hi Experts,
I am designing a WF where to change the Material Group need approval of supervisor if rejected by supervisor workflow initiator will get a mail for rejection and material group will not be changed.
I designed and linked it to the event the WF is triggering properly but the problem is when supervisor reject the request the WF initiator get a mail but Material group is not set to itu2019s previous value it is getting changed.
Regards
Bikas

Hello Bikas,
The workflow is going to be triggered only when you save the changes that you have made to the material group. So to revert the changes when the superior rejects the proposal, You have to create a method in which the the material group is changed to the previous value. For that reason what I feel, get the previous value of the material group from the CDHDR and CDPOS tables and create a background process(a BDC) which updates the material group to the previous value. Use this method in a step in the workflow that you have designed.
Hope this will help you.

Material group GUID - related to SRM-CCM

Hi,
This is related to CCM.
Can you please tell me, If the material group description is changed the Guid related to the same material group is changed or not?
If the GUID is changed with respect to change in material group. Then where can i get the relation of guid to material group
Thanks

Hi
Check table crmd_link
where we have GUID_HI and GUID_SET
here there is a relationshhip maintained for header and item level guid link .
GUId are created when we upload the material groups an material numbers if there is a change in description of the material number or material group the guiod does not get changed as it an unique id based on the material group number which is a primary key
Description in general are never a primary key .
either in back end system or in SRM system.

Authorization role - Purchase Order by Material Groups

Hello experts,
I would like to create an authorization role where he could limit the creation of purchase orders by material groups. However, I checked all the authorization and noticed that at the level of purchases there is no authorization that allows me to such behavior. Is there any way to limit the creation of purchase orders for material group, that is, I have two material groups, and intend to have a function that only allows me to create purchase orders with materials of material group X and another function that only allow me to create purchase orders with materials of material group Y.
To limit the creation of material master by material group I used authorization:
Materials Management: Master Data MM_G
Material Master: Material Groups M_MATE_WGR
There exist any authorization to use for Materials Management: Purchasing - MM_E that allows me to limit the purchase orders by materials group?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
José Pereira

Hi,
There is not such Authorisation Object in Standard SAP which will control the PO creation/change/display based on Material Groups.
You need to create a Z-Authorisation object in T-code SU21 under Object Class MM_E and then same to be added for T-Codes ME21N/ME22N/ME23N.
And then you need to call user exit or BAdi (ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST) and call this object with help of ABAPer.

"I 06 684 Releases already effected are liable to be reset
E BA 003 Instance 4500010532 of object type PurchaseOrder could not be changed

Even i am trying to debug standard tocde of PO but it is not calling bapi BAPI_PO_CHANGE.
Could you please help me on this.

Hello,
To assign material group to G/l account you have to matain valuation class for Material group
SPRO >> Materials Managment >> Purchasing >> Material Master >> Entry aids for items with out material master.
Assign this valaution class to G/l in OBYC.

Since I installed Nero 2104 I get an error message when I try to start iTunes: registry settings changed probably due to other cd/dvd burning program please reinstall iTunes, which I've done using repair option but the problem persists...?

Since I installed Nero 2014 I get an error message when I start iTunes that registry settings for importing and burning cds/dvds have changed probably due to other burning software installed please reinstall iTunes, which I've done using 'repair' option, but the problem persists. I have been able to import cds to iTunes since I installed Nero, but it won't anymore. Does anyone recognize this problem and have a solution? Thanks for any help. Using Windows 7.

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)
iTunes for Windows: "Registry settings" warning when opening iTunes
If you're still getting the error message (especially when you plug in the Touch), I'd check for a device filter confusion on the PC. (They can affect the connection of USB devices to a PC, as well as burning and importing CDs.) For that one, see:
iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting CD issues caused by device filters

Changing MARA-ERNAM and MARA-AENAM during Material create

Hi All,
         We have a critical requirement to change the MARA-ERNAM and MARA-AENAM during the creation of the material.
          We are using the BAPI 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA' to create a material from an Inbound IDOC.When we execute the above BAPI, the material is created with sy-uname in MARA-ERNAM and MARA-AENAM field and our requirement is to update our desired usernames.
       Please provide your valuable suggestions.
Thanks and Regards,
Stephen

and why don't you execute that BAPI with another UserID? or schedule it as a job, attaching the userid of the special batch-user you have in your company to the job-step?

Automatic change of G/L account with change of material group in PO

Experts,
we're facing an issue with the change of the G/L account in a PO after the material group has been changed. We're creating purchase requisitions from SRM (account assignment type K) with material group and G/L account. Starting to create the PO with ME21N from PR we want to change the material group. After the change we still have the original G/L account.
Valuation class and account assignment is defined correctly and if we create a manual PO the correct values are used. What do we need to change so that the G/L account is directly changed with the change of the material group?
Thanks
Hubert

Hi Hubert,
I am assuming that you are not using the material master and trying to default the G/L account using the material group.
Can you check whether the valuation class assign in this config for the respective material group are same.
Purchasing> Material Master > Entry Aids of items without a material Master.
System should default the G/L account if you maintain different valuation class in material group with the respective G/L define in OBYC.
Secondly, Please check the Account assign categories configuration for the account modification.
Purchasing > Account assignment > Maintain Account assignment Categories.
Cheers!

Block sales order creation based on material qty

Hi,
In my scenario i want to block the sales order creation based on material qty , how i can do this?
Example:
Material qty below 100 = able to create sales order
Material qty above 100 = not able to create SO
Thanks,
Arun

Hi
For restricting the order if it is less than a specified qty, you can maintain the 'min order qty' in material master.
But your requirement is the other way round - Restrict order if it is more than specified qty.
In this case, you need to use the following sales order exit in progran MV45AFZZ
u2022 USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE
Use this user exit to make certain changes or checks immediately before saving a document. It is the last possibility for changing or checking a document before posting.
The user exit is carried out at the beginning of the FORM routine BELEG_SICHERN.
Hope this helps.

MMAM - how to change material group

Hi guys,
could you pls tell me all conditions that must be fulfilled when I want to change material group in MMAM?
current group - HAWA, new group -ROH
thanks a lot,
I

Hi,
   I believe you want to change material type. Below are the prerequisites to change the material type:
1. If you use the material ledger, the material must be settled in
2. If the old material type did not require you to specify a price control (for example , standard price or moving average price)
      for the material, the new material type must not be configured such that it allows only standard price as the price control.
3. If the material has been maintained from PRT (Production resource tools) view, this view must also be allowed for the new material type.
4. If the material is not configurable material, the new material type must not be allowed only for configurable materials.
5. If inspection plans are required for quality management inspection of the material, they must be allowed for the new material type.
6. The material type ID indicator(presently used only in Retail) must be the same for the old material type and the new material type.
7. If the material is already in stock, or if reservations, or purchasing documents exist for it, the following conditions must also be met:
   A) The stock values of the material of the new material type must be updated the same G/L account as the stock values material of the old material type.
   B) Quantiites and values of the material of the new material type must be updated exactly the same way in all plants as quantities and values of the material of the old material type.
C) If there is a transfer requirement for the material and if quants of the material exist, the new material type must also allow the material data to be maintained from the warehouse management view.
8. In Customizing for the material master , the following indicators must have the same setting for the old material type and for the new material type:
A) Material for Process Indicator
B) Manufacturer Part Indicator
9. If the material , whose material type you want to change ,was handled in batches and if,due to the maintenance statuses of the new material type, the material can no longer be handled in batches,although batch still exist, you can not change the material type.
Thanks,
Venkat

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.

Error in CIF while change in Material Group in R/3

Hi,
I have assigned Material Group Description as an external field in Extra Tab in APO. When I create a material the CIF updates the filed correctly.
When I change the material group the CIF gives and error "Location does not exist for external location FR02, type , and BSG BSG1" where FR02 is my Plant.
When I delete the queue and re execute the IM the change is updated in APO.
Can someone tell me why the above CIF error appears for every change done.

Nilesh,
It is common for experienced ABAPers to be able to determine this on their own. Normally all you should have to do is explain in business terms what is happening, and the ABAPer should be able to troubleshoot the problem without you first discovering the code details for him.
There are a couple of ways to populate the aux fields in the SCM product master. The first userexit I would look at would be CIFMAT01 on the R/3 side.

Change description of excise item tab Raw material to Input material

Hi,
We have upgraded R3 4.7 to ECC 6.0 now we required in MIGO transaction Excise Item tab Indicator for Material type we need to change the description of this as RAW MATERIAL to INPUT MATERIAL and Consumable to Capital Goods which is in R3 4.7
Please suggest me any config.
Thanks
Shital D

Hi,
The above material type showing in MIGO screen, as you already declared the material under which material category in J1ID & so then value flowing.
You can not change here & you have few options to declared the material under which material categories.
You can keep all raw material as raw material & Consumable as asset.
But if your business needed very much, Just have a discuss with ABAPer for your requirement.

Biju K
