Hi
Charcteristics are stored in these tables
CABN Characteristic
CABNNEW Characteristic
CABNT Characteristic Descriptions
CABNZ Assignment of Table Fields to Characteristics
CAWN Characteristic values
CAWNT Value Texts
Try deleting the Characteristic directly from the Tables
There is no direct program to delete charcteristics apart from using CT04.

Mandatory Field Vendor Classification - CT04

Hi,
I've created Vendor Characteristic thru CT04. How to ensure the field become mandatory field. It means that,
when user didnt enter values, the system will display "ERROR" message and force to enter value.
I can see the "Entry required" under CT04 tcode but it doesn't fully worked. It's only display "Info" message and user still able to leave the characteristic field with no value and save the vendor information.
How can it be done thru CT04 or is there any way it should be done in SPRO?
Your help much appreciated.

Hi,
1. I've done at CT04 - tick Entry Required. Characteristic name : for eg: VendorC
2. Run MK02. Enter vendor no.
3. Choose Enter. Vendor Details displayed.
4. Environment -> Classification
5. Enter Vendor Class. Click Enter.
6. Other Characteristic & VendorC characteristic displayed.
7. I've made some changes at other characteristic but not VendorC.
The Result, we still can save the changes without any error displayed. How we gonna give you the error details since there was not error display.
Thanks & Rgds

Batch characteristic in classification not updating

Hello expert,
I have created classification for batch (class type 023) with characteristic MCH1 -LWEDT to record last GR date. Batch number has to be entered manually during GR posting. And i expect that during GR posting, characteristic value of GR date will be automatically updated in the classification but i've found that it is blank.
My query is, do GR date in characteristic value of batch class can be automatically updated during GR posting?
If it yes, what's wrong with my class? and how to make it works as expected?
Really appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance

Hi Rahul,
Just to make sure. Have you created a characteristic named MCH1-LWEDT or have you actually linked your characteristic to the field MCH1-LWEDT in the "Addtnl Data" tab in CT04?

Batch managment/ classification

pls
can u give total custmiztion part of above topics ,in detail
for material managment view.
thanks advane
g.ramakishna

Hi,
There are two parts in customization
1. Classification and material master creation
2. Config for batch management.
1. Classification and Material master creation
      a) Create Characteristics in CT04 -- as many characteritics
      b) Create Class in T.code : CL02   --Say XCLASSand assign all the characteritics what you have created
      c) Go to MM01 select the basic view and classification
      d) enter the basic data and in the classification select the class (eg) XCLASS and save
     e) Go to MM01 and create all the other views in Purchasing Tick Batch Management.. and save the Material Master
2. Go to SPRO-Logistics General--Batch Management and configure all the steps
3.create a P.O and do the GR

Classification purchase order (with batch management)

Hi,
I need some help in the next situation:
I need to order a material with batch management. I've used the classification system to assign the material specifications to the material of a batch. When I create a purchase order I want to specify some caracteristics as a lowest level than the material level, but that specifications are not real, it's a kind of a limitation.
I don't now if I can use some classification of purchase order or somthing like that.
Thanks a lot and regards.

Create characteristics CT04
Process to create class CL02
when you create a class with type 001 it is Material class, it means when you assign the class at the material level you are assigning those characteristics to the material not to the specific batches.
But if you create a class with type 023 it is batch class. You will assign this class at the material when creating in MM01 under classification tab and check the Batch management tab in purchasing or sales data while creating a material.
This will help you to classify each batch with different characteristic values. when you create the batch with MSC1n you batch will be automatically classified with the batch class from material and you can give the values over there.
You can give the values for the batch when you receive the batch in MIGO, even though u give the batch in PO u can give the details in classification for that batch in MIGO when u receive it in the item tab "Batch" there is button classification to give those values.
hope it helps.

Function modules for Classifications

Hi Sapall.
here iam have got some abap technical work to do on classifications.
before creating new tasks i just looked at some of the existing programs in Material management and classification.
i have observed that most of the programs are using the following function modules frequently.
CONVERSION_EXIT_TPLNR_INPUT
DYNP_GET_STEPL
BAPI_CHARACT_GETDETAIL
BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL
BAPI_OBJCL_GETCLASSES
can any body help in explaing brief on what these Function modules will be used for.
regards.
Varma

Hi,
I know about the below FM.
BAPI_CHARACT_GETDETAIL - This is used to get the details of the Characteristic such as Data type,. Allowed values, etc.
For Ex: if when you created a MAterial using MM01, then it will assk for classification.
In the Classification, you have many characteristcs like Effectivity which will accepted values.
These Characteristics are created using CT04.
BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL - This will fetch all the Characteristic details for the Class type, Object Key passed.
Please have a look at the below thread.
Re: Error:While creation of Classification view using-'BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE'
So, what ever you create using BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE, you can retrieve using BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL.
BAPI_OBJCL_GETCLASSES - This will retrun all the Charactersistic Values via TABLES parameters, depending up on the data type of the Characteristic.
The Input for this Will be Object Key (eg: Material Number), Object Table(for eg: MARA) Class Type (For eg:Z001).
Thanks & Regards,
Vamsi.

Classification of Material using LSMW

Hello
I using LSMW in order to create the characteristic. There are 4000 datas. This characteristis are going to be assigned to the class in order to have a classification of the materials.
Details:
In the 1rs step: I select object 0150 Characteristic and the program RCCTBI01
But I don't know if I have to use 0140 for class wich has the same program or 0130Classification and has this program RCCTB03.
But at the end when I created the batch imput the system generate the following message: Transaction not supported Message no. BL001
I have been trying with this transacctions: CT01, CT02, CT03, CT04, CL02, CL20N AND ALWAYS I OBTAIN THE SAME MESSAGE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP

I never used batch input for classification, I usually do it with IDOC method.
In any case you have to create 3 objects.
One for the class
once for the characteristics
and then one for the classification.
regarding Batch Input, there is an OSS note 213120
As of Release 4.6A, the transactions of the class system are no longer suited for batch input.
If you have batch inputs from previous releases, you can continue using these since the old transactions still exist.
Where possible, use BAPIs or Direct Input instead of batch input. The old transactions will be eliminated in one of the future releases, so that the batch inputs will have to be converted anyway.
If you still want to use your own batch inputs, use the old transaction codes (such as CT01/02/03). If this should not work, use the alternatives mentioned above.

Make Vendor Classification characteristics mandatory

All,
We have a vendor classification class and a characteristic. We have defined this characteristic as mandatory in transaction CT04. However when I create or change a vendor (transaction XK01/XK02) and go into classification I am still able to save the document without filling in reqired fields. I do get a popup saying that I haven't filled out the required field, but if I just press OK I'm still allowed to save even if some of the classifications mandatory characteristics are blank.
We really want users to be forced to fill in all required characteristics. Is there a way of doing this? There is a SAP Note - 661368 - BAdI for required entry field check in the classification. Even by making the fields mandatory in the BADI, we are able to go back to the prev screen.
I also tried implementing a user exit - EXIT_SAPLCLFM_002 (include ZXCLFU02). The pop up works, but we land up with some other issues like additional tabs coming on the screen or the SAP pop up coming up (resulting in 2 pop ups). So I am thinking is this may not be our solution.
Hope that you can give valuable responses to my issue above.
Thanks! Liz

Hi,
Try This by writing code in user exit SAPMF02K
sample code
IF I_MSEG-SOBKZ = 'E' AND I_MSEG-KZBWS IS INITIAL.
MESSAGE E002(ZSD01).
ENDIF.

Hi,
In the standard system you are always allowed to save the classification
even if it is uncomplete, you receive the warning message about the
required characters and if you save anyway, instead of preventing the
save it will change the status of the classification from '1' (Released)
to '3' (Incomplete). This is standard as the user should be allowed to
save the classification when incomplete and then come back later to
complete it at a more suitable time.
There is a userexit which you can use to change this functionality,
please review note 337262 which explains how to use this userexit
to prevent the save of incomplete classification.
Best regards,
Sandra

Classification set up for Vendor Master

I plan on using Classifications for Vendors to assign a status. I need to define the Class and assign to Class type as well as define the Characteristics and assign the values. Can anyone tell me where this is done?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Looks like CL02 will create the class and CT04 will create the characteristics and values.

Create content modell, logical/physical document class, TA CT04/cl02/dc10

Dear experts,
Im about to get to know the SAP DMS. Content Server is already running working as well as the content repositories. I now wanna set up a content modell for testing with knowledge provider.
Im a bit confused about the different ways of doing that. What is actually the difference between creating a CHAR in TA ct04, creating a class in Cl02 with type 017 and the alternative of creating a content model with TA SRMCMCREATE or directly in the document modelling workbench.
Once ive hopefully understood the difference how can i start actually creating / uploading real (physical documents) cause in dont understand what TAs cvn01n/02n/03n are for.
There is a large number of function modules for kpro. Fo example when testing SDOK_LOIOS_CREATE i have to enter an RFC destination. What do i have to type in as RFC destination intending to store in content repositories of content server?
I know thats more than one question at a time but i would be very pleased some of these get answered.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Dear Christian,
I would like to start providing you information with CT04 question. Here the CHAR value is used for maintaining the type of classification characteristics. The CHAR entry stands for 'Character' type which
means you can add alphabetical and numerical values to this classification characteristic. Transaction CT04 is normally used for creating classification characteristics. In CL02 you can create a class for
classification and then add the characteristics to it. In the standard class type 017 is used for classifying document info records.
Transaction CV01N/CV02N/CV03N are used in standard for document managment functionalities. Here you can create/edit/display your document info records. These document info records are like a frame for your original files which could be added to an info record and then checked into your Content Server.
During this check in function the KPRO function modules are used too.
For further information I would recommend you to see the SAP online documentation under http://help.sap.com.
Best regards,
Christoph

How to handle classification multi value characterstic

Hi,
I searched SDN for multi value characteristic addition in to classificatin data source and found that we need to implement notes: 535370, 350296 sin sequence. But I'm wondering if there is any update on creating the class data source with multple value chars ? Please advice if we have any logic to add the multi value chars without changing the CT04 setting or implementing the notes....Thanks inadvance
Sam

We had to extarct multiple values from classification for equipment and Function Location. Created a generic Funcion module based extractor and used below approach to fetch multiple values :
1. Enhance the extract structure with the Maximum number of required fields.
2.Fetch Attribute Name, Attribute number and units (used for key figures) from CABN
3. Fetch Object number for the given equipment from INOB by passing Equipment number and class type
4. Fetch the attribute values from AUSP using object number (3), attribute number (2), object/class indicator and class type.
5. Loop over the result set obtained (4) and using the attribute number, move the values to field corresponding to that of the extract structure.)
Thanks,
Monika

How to set currency template in CT04

I'd like to ask a question about how to set currency template in CT04
Coz i have a material classification --- cost
i'd go to CT04 to create ...set data type is CURR Currency Format
but i don't know how to set the template if i want to show like this
<b>HKD 99,999,999.99</b>
coz if i didn't set any template , it will automatically ...show 99,999,999.99 HKD

Hello,
In the transaction CJ02 on the "Basic data" tab you have a field Proj. currency which you can change.
