Classification view creation via LSMW for Material master

Hi,
We are planning to have an LSMW for creation of material master along with classification view for configurable materials.
Though we see a flag to indicate classification view - XEIC1 Indicator: take Classification view into account
We do not see a structure where in we can pass all the characteristics and the corresponding values.
Is this something possible only with BAPIs such as -> BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE after creation of other view for that material.
Regards,
HR

Hi,
Thanks for the response. This is helpful.
However, we were intending to use a single LSMW for creation of all views of material master including classification view. Right now we are using Program RMDATIND as direct input method in LSMW.
Please let me know if there is a way to use single LSMW for creation of all views of material master.
Thanks
HR

LSMW for material master upload

Hi gurus
i have one problem while uploading material master with LSMW.
I have murged 2 company codes in one so while creating material master system is asking me tax classification data in sales view for 2 country sales org and distrubition channel. I am using sap std LSMW for material master creation.
system is giving me error as " tax classification data not maintained completely".
need your valuable help to solve this problem

Tax classification data is mandatory field in Sales view of MM01.
Check out you mapping for the tax classification fields. usually classification value is 0 OR 1.
You can first test the values in MM01 Sales View with the legacy data you have and this way you will able to find the mandatory fields also and can see the valid values for the fields.
Remember you may have more than one Tax Classification values depending on the country code.
For that you can add those many columns in legacy data file and map them.
Hope it helps.

LSMW FOR MATERIAL MASTER USING BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

Hi Gurus,
Im trying to develop lsmw for material master upload using bapi method.
Object:BUS1001006
BAPI:BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
MESSAGE TYPE: MATMAS_BAPI
BASIC TYPE : MATMAS_BAPI01.
I m unable to find parameters to load gross_weight volume and volume unit and also problem loading the custom fields of material master. Any body who has worked on this one, can you please help me.
Thanks
venkat

The BAPI_MATERAIL_SAVEDATA support the gross_weight or the volume via the tables UNITSOFMEASURE and UNITSOFMEASUREX.
eg.
UNIT_OF_WT =KG
ALT_UNIT = PCS
NUMERATOR = 1
DENOMINATR =1
GROSS_WT =1000
All the customer specific field are supported by the EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONINX tables.

Issue in LSMW for material master using standard input program RMDATIND!!

Hello guys,
I have a issue in LSMW for material master.
I have a custom field in MARA table. which I want to add in my LSMW.
I added the field in BMMH1 structure. I'm passing the value to this field, But it is not populated in the table when I run it.
Is there anything else I need to do apart from addition of field in the structure BMMH1.
Thanks in advance for your help.

LSMW for material master using Batch input recording method

Dears,
I am using Batch input recording method to upload material master data. But while selecting views , I need to scroll to select the vies lets say Plant storage loc view. While scrolling and selecting ,views are not recorded propelry . That is when I run in foreground system selects only basic data and purchasing views but the plant data views are not selected(palnt data views are selected by scrolling while recording).
How to resolve this issue.
Pls help

Step by step instruction for Using LSMW Recoding method for Material Master

Guys,
Can some one explain step by step procedure for uploading the materials master data to R/3 by using LSMW Recoding method. By the time you reply I will go through the rule of uploading the data..
Thanks guys,
Dhanu.

Hi,
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
The LSM Workbench covers the following steps:
(1)Read the legacy data from one or several files (e.g. spreadsheet tables, sequential files)
(2)Convert the data from source format to target format
(3)Import the data using standard interfaces (Batch Input, Direct Input, BAPI, IDoc).
The Steps for LSME are:
Example: Customer Master upload:
LSMW to Update Customer Master Records with Transaction Recording
Call Legacy System Migration Workbench by entering transaction code LSMW. Every conversion task is grouped together as Project / Subproject / Object structure. Create a Project called LSMW_DEMO and a Subproject as CUSTOMERS and Object as CUST_REC
Step 1: Maintain Object attributes
In this example, you will be updating the customer master records with the help of recording a transaction (XD02). Choose radio button Batch Input Recording and click on the recording overview icon to record the R/3 transaction. Enter the Recording name as XD02_REC, the description as Customer Master Updates Recording, and the transaction code as XD02.
Step 2. Maintain Source Structures
Give a name and a description to the source structure
Step 3. Maintain Source Fields
In this step, you need to list what fields are present in the source structure. The easiest way is to click on u2018Table Maintenanceu2019 icon to enter Fieldname, Type and Length for each field
Step 4: Maintain Structure Relations
Execute a step to u2018Maintain Structure Relationsu2019. Since, there is only one Source and Target Structure, the relationship is defaulted automatically.
Step 5: Maintain field mapping and conversion rules
Field RF02D-D0310 represents that you chose u2018Sales viewu2019 for the customer Master screen accordingly its value should be set to X. Keep your cursor on field RF02D-D0310 and click on Constant rule icon to choose the constant value of u2018Xu2019.
If your source file already has the field value, you choose rule u2018Source Fieldu2019.
Keep cursor on field u2018KUNNRu2019 and click on u2018Assign Source fieldu2019 icon to choose source field CUSTOMER from structure XD02S
Step 6: Maintain fixed values, translations, user-defined routines
You can also maintain re-usable translations and user-defined routines, which can be used across conversion tasks. In this case, that step is not required.
Step 7: Specify files
In this step, we define how the layout of the input file is. The input file is a [Tab] delimited with the first row as field names. It is present on my PC (local drive) as C:\XD02.txt.
Step 8: Assign files
Execute step u2018Assign Filesu2019 and the system automatically defaults the filename to the source structure.
Step 9: Read data
In this step, LSMW reads the data from the source file (from your PCu2019s local drive). You have the option to read only selected rows and convert data values to Internal format.
Step 10: Display read data
This step is optional. If required, you can review the field contents for the rows of data read.
Step 11: Convert data
This is the step that actually converts the source data (in source format) to a target format. Based on the conversion rules defined, source fields are mapped to target fields.
Step 12: Display Converted data
Again this is an optional step to view how the source data is converted to internal SAP format
Step 13: Create batch input session
Once the source data is converted in an internal format, you can create a batch session to process updates.
Step 14: Run Batch Input Session
You can execute the BDC session by Run Batch input session. Executing a batch input session is a standard SM35 transaction for managing BDC sessions. Once you have successfully executed the batch input session, the customer master records are updated in the system. You can confirm this by viewing the customer master records (XD03).

Approval for Material Master Creation !

Dear All ,
My requirement is to have approval process for Material master. is it possible.?
My Client is expecting approval process same like PO ( release strategy )
Is there any standard approval process for every masters which are created as part of MM transactions.
Can it be achieved by means of any workflow.?
Thanks
Jinoy

Hi,
Yes it can be achieved by Work flow & also through the Enterprise Portal development.
If you have Workflow consultant you can take a help in setting up the approval for Material master creation.
If you want high fund & centralization of Material master you can go for EP development but Cost & effort will be on higher side.
Discuss with your Workflow consultant he will help you.

Creation of New T Code for Material Master

HI,
I have to create a new T Code for Material Master Change i.e. for MM02, with writing restrictions to few fields. How to achieve this?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Hariprasad,
If restricting certain fields using field selection option is not suitable for you, you can go ahead with the option Screen Variend

Most use ful t code for Material Master changing

Dear All,
Can any one give me most useful T-codes for create, change and display material master.
I have one T-code which is very useful for material master it is "MM50". With help of this tcode you can see material extend detail and also you can delete mass material with help of this tcode.
So please use it and also give me other this type of tcodes.
Regards,
Mahesh Wagh

Hi,
MM17, LSMW, MM50 --- These are the 3 main transactions which is used frequently to Mass change the Material master.
There is one more option is there using BDC Upload.
Batch Data Communication or BDC is a batch interfacing technique that SAP developed. It is mainly used for uploading data into the SAP R/3 system. BDC works by simulating the user input from transactional screen via an ABAP program.
The data input data file will come in the form of a flat file which the user save as file type txt file or prn file from the Microsoft Excel program. An Abaper will create a program to read the text file and upload into the SAP system.
Transaction -- SHDB will be used to record the change material master. After, the simulation, the Abaper can generate a sample program and modify from there. It makes the programming easier and faster.
For a BDC upload you need to write a program which created BDC sessions.
hope you got it. Take a help of ABAPer for this BDC Upload.
