Copy the material classification

Hello,
I have already classified the material and now want to use exactly the same classification for our documents. Therefore I would like to copy the material classes and use them as document classes.
Unfortunately this is not possible and I get the following error message:
"Class types 017 and 001 have different object tables".
Is there another possibility to copy our classes?
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards,
Markus

Hello Markus,
refer to www.im-solution.eu/downloads. There you will find a migration tool which provides migration of complete classifications and characteristics to SAP.
1st step:
download (via SE16) the actual classification & characteristics to the database.
2nd step:
change class type at the database.
3rd step:
export classification from database and upload via SAP standard reports "RCC*".
You use only SAP standard technologies => no development required.

MM01 -- Update Was terminated while copying the material from one plant

Hi Experts,
While I am trying to copy the material from one plant like ETPE to another plant ETPZ , its telling that material created.
But when we try to display the created material in MM02 for plant ETPZ , it says that material does not exist.
Note : After creating the material , if we try to move any transaction code it shows the error message box and says that Update was terminated .
Kindly help us to resolve this.
Regards,
Vijay

Hi rob,
we have put the debugging , if there is any badi , enhancement the debugger would have gone to exit or enhancement line but its not going to any where.
and I have checked in sm13 ..
its giving the error like update was terminated
from funtion module : MATERIAL_UPDATE_DB
Report name : LGRAPU37
row : 360.
ABAP/4 processor: POSTING_ILLEGAL_STATEMENT
but if we go and see in the row 360 ...
CALL SCREEN 100 line only
is there , even if we put the breakpoint in this line , while we are debugging , debugger is not going to that line .
Note : if we see the screen 100 it shows the empty screen.

How to integrate cProjects with R/3 to get the Material Classification Data

Hi all,
We are installing the cProjects and we have to integrate it with R/3 to get the Material Classification data.
Is any one has developed the object link, which links cProject and Material Classification data in R/3?
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi Venkat,
Refer SAP cProjects Guide for Implementing an Object Link. This Guide also includes User Defined Object Links.
You should be able to find it on SAP Service Marketplace. In case you cannot, pl send me your email ID, I will mail the same to you.

What SAP table houses the Material Classification values?

I cannot for the life of me figure out what SAP table actually stores the material classification characteristic values. These are the related tables I have found so far but none of them link the information to a material number:
TABLE: CABN
ATINN (characteristic ID)
ATNAM (characteristic name code)
MSEHI (UoM associated with characteristic)
TABLE: CABNT
ATINN (characteristic ID)
ATBEZ (characteristic full name)
TABLE: KLAH
KLART (class type)
CLASS (class name code)
CLINT (class id)
TABLE: KLAT
CLINT (class id)
TXTBZ (class full name)
TABLE: KSML
CLINT (class id)
IMERK (characteristic id)
POSNR (characteristic positional location for class)
TABLE: CAWN
ATINN (internal char.)
ATZHL (int counter)
ATWRT (char. value)
TABLE: CAWNT
ATINN (internal char.)
ATZHL (int counter)
ATWTB (description)
I have also identified these structures, but I am no good at finding where values from a structure actually reside.
STRUCT: RMCBC "I/O field for include screens from classification"
contains MATNR, KLART, CLASS, KLTXT, ATWRT
STRUCT: RMCLF "Classification I/O structure for Assgmt of Object to Class"
contains KLART, CLASS, KLTXT
Can anyone please help me and advise where the actual relationship between material number and classification information is? I'm trying to import this information from MDM to R/3 but I have no idea what to map it to or what Idoc segment to use.
Thanks!

Have a go with below table joint in SQVI or SQ01:
KSSK (Allocation Table: Object to Class), joint together with KLAH (Class Header Data).
Link will be field CLINT.
Choose the below from KSSK:
Key of object to be classified - KSSK-OBJEK: you will enter the material number here. Watch out - you have to add 10 leading zeros before your material number, eg. number 40524281 will be altered to 000000000040524281.
Class Type - KSSK-KLART: here you can specify the class type which is 001 for material master.
Choose the below from KLAH:
Class number - KLAH-CLASS: this field will return the class number you assigned to your material in Classification view.

Delta loading of the material classification

Hello,
I use 1CL_OMAT001 datasource on order to extract the material classification from R/3 into BW.
The load works in init/delta.
If I change the characteristic value from its value A to ' ' (re-initialized) in R/3, the delta loading will not take into account the modification in BW and therefore, in BW I will always have the value firstly defined (A). But I would like to see ' ' for that characteristic.
Fortunately, when I modify the characteristic value from A to B, the delta loading will take into account the modification and there will be "B" in BW.
Did you notice the same problem ? What did you do then ?
Anybody have a solution ?
Thanks for your answers.
Vanessa.

Hi,
we are using the same datasource and we planned to go for delta. but could not manage to do so. the data we are loading is in the range of approx 300000, so rather then going for delta we are doing full load daily with the deletion of previous request. when we think the data is getting huge we do a full load for a required period and the change the selection for the next.
eg: in the infopackage selection for last year we had fiscal year period set to 001.2005 to 012.2005 then once the year is over we change the selection to 001.2006 to 012.2006 and through out the year we have a max of 1 mil records so works fine with us. check this with your requirement.

How to copy the material in my ipad into the new Itunes that I just installed ?

I just bought a new PC and installed the itunes. I want to get the PDF book in my ipad, how to do it ?

Do I copy my media library or from a backup. I have a backup on my pc and on an external drive. This drive is usb2 and formatted for windows so I can't connect it to a MacBook Air to make the transfer. Equally I don't think there is a way to connect the 2 computers via a cable ie usb2 one end and usb3 the other. Will the computers talk to each other via wifi if I enable home share although I think this is only for music which still leaves contacts, mail etc.
I am sorry to be such an ignoramus but any further help would be appreciated.

Can you copy the Temperature in Delivery Note to Bulk Shipment document?

Is there a way to copy the temperature inputted in the "Qty in Alternate UOM" tab in the item details of the Delivery Note to the Bulk Shipment document during the Change Loading confirmation process?
One of our process requirements is to be able to copy the Material temperature and test temperature parameters, among others, from the delivery note to the Shipment document during O4G1 (change loading confirmation). We can only access until the Delivery Note, and then an automation in the system takes over, hence we cannot make changes in O4G1.
What happens here now during O4G1 is the system does not look to the delivery note for whatever temperatures have been entered, but rather it looks back at the O3DEFAULTS table. The problem with that is, during the day, some temperature information can be updated, while O3DEFAULTS is updated perhaps only once a day.
Is there a configuration setting that I can check?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I do not think that there is standard way to copy additional quantities (Qty and temp data) from outbound delivery doc but I think you can do this thru custom developement like implementing BADI and add new tab "Qty in Alternate UoM" and get the data from LIPSO2 table. We have applied same approach on our TSW Nomination to display some additional data outside standard process.
Hope this may help.

Error While Creating Material Classification Characteristic DataSource -

Hi All,
    I am creating the Material Classification DataSource 1CL_OMAT001 with CTBW in R/3 with the following info:
Basis DataSource = 0MATERIAL_ATTR; Client = 200; Class Type = 001;
Obj table = MARA; DataSource Type = ATTR, DataSource = 1CL_OMAT001
I have added all the characteristics with 'New Entries' button and the following are the details after saving it:
   DataSource = 1CL_OMAT001
   Characteristic Name = ABCDXYZ
   Item No =   '    ' (blank)
   Maintain Status = N
   Characteristic = 1CL_AABC001
   Typ = CHA
   While adding the MATERIAL_GROUP as characteristic it got an error because of Reference Characteristic since it is reference to Table MARA. Finally, I didn't add it.
   When I click the 'Generate' button to generate the DataSource then it is giving the error of <b>'BW Metada is incomplete'</b> (CLBW008).
   What is wrong with it and how could I fix this problem, please ?
   Thanks in advance.

I am not too sure but this might be the cause of error. Data doesn't need to be in client 100, but the characteristic needs to be defined in the class if I remember it correctly.
To do a quick check, open report program RCLBW_STRUCTURE_GEN in SE38, there is a call to FM RSA1_SINGLE_OLTPSOURCE_GET (around line 169) put a breakpoint there in the editor (display).
Now run your CTBW generation, it should stop at the breakpoint. You should check the value of field GT_CLBW_SOURCES-IOBJNM in the debugger - it would likely be the characteristic name.
Now, go to SE37, do a single test of FM RSA1_SINGLE_OLTPSOURCE_GET, and specify this same value for field I_OLTPSOURCE and execute. You will likely get a sy-subrc of non-zero.
Repeat this in client 200, check sy-subrc.
If you are getting sy-subrc 0 in 200 and non-zero in 100; you will either need to create the classification in 100, or generate it in 200.
If this doesn't work, let us know.

Need a bapi r fn module to update the batch classification in the bom

Initial load of material classification

Hi,
We want to start using GTS to maintain tariff codes and to assign materials to tariff codes. We will start off with loading tariff codes in GTS from a dataprovider. However, we do not want to start from scratch with assigning materials to tariff codes. This information is already available in our SAP system. Does GTS provide a way to import the existing SAP material master data and load it into the material classification in GTS? If not, what is the best way to start this effort?
Regards,
Ed

Hi,
There is standard transaction where you can do mass classifications in GTS but i think there is a limitation to 3000 products at a time and in my view, it is not very effective if you have hundreds of codes to be assigned to products and it is very time consuming..
Alternatively, you will have to build a customised program and get all classifications saved in text file and load them up which is what i have done.
In my view, after implementation of GTS, tariff and commodity codes ( Include Classifications ) are supposed to be maintained in GTS by ITC and transferred over to Feeder system ( Commodity code is the only master data to be transferred over from GTS to Feeder and there is a standard transaction for doing initial transfer ).
Bad point about this standard is you will need to ask your Basis to activite the change log file in system to keep track when the commodity code is transferred.
Thereafter, you must have batch jobs running regularly at GTS and Feeder to do the transfer.
Im new in GTS so what i have said might not be entirely correct. Im still learning..
Thank you.

CIF of material classification data

Dear Experts,
Since a recent technical upgrade to our systems, I have seen a change in behavior of the integration of material classification data from ECC to SCM. Before the upgrade, classification data transferred with the initial CIF of the material. If material classification did not exist on the ECC material at the time the material was added to a new integration model and activated, we "missed the boat" so to speak. Classification would not automatically transfer (CIF) to APO when if finally was loaded in ECC, even if the application area/integration models were correct. As a work-around, we would be forced to generate and activate a material model that specifically excluded the material, then generate and activate another material integration model that included it again. Then the classification would transfer.
After the upgrade, the opposite condition is true, the "initial CIF" of the material will not transfer material classification data at all, it will only transfer if the classification data is added/changed after the material itself is transferred to APO. As a work around for this, if the classification data is already (correctly) loaded in ECC at the time of the initial material CIF, we are changing the status of the material classification from 1 to 3 and back to 1, just to trigger a change, then the classification is transferred instantly to APO.
Are there configuration settings that will allow material classification data to CIF in both cases: with the initial CIF of the material to SCM and also in the event of a change and/or addition of classification data in ECC? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Dear Matt,
What you are looking for is achieved by downloading the customizing objects from R/3 to SRM.
This is a must before you download materials/services from R/3 to SRM.
Customizing objects are 4:
DNL_CUST_BASIS3 - This takes care of Basis settings in SRM for downloading.
DNL_CUST_PROD0 - This takes care of Material number conversions from R/3 to SRM.
DNL_CUST_PROD1 - This CO actually brings matl groups from R/3 to SRM as product categories.
The result you can see in trx COMM_HIERARCHY (not in COMMPR01 which is for materials/services.
There in R3MATCLASS you can see replicated and locally crated prod categories
and in R3PRODSTYPE you can see the material typs from R/3
DNL_CUST_SRVMAS - This takes care of Customizing: Service Master
The transaction for this is R3As in SRM
and you can monitor the same through R3AM1.
also you can check QRFC of R3 and SRM with SMQ1 and SMQ2.
The next step after this is material/service downloading from R/3 which is done with the same trx R3AS but business objects
Material and
Service_master
You can set fileter in trx R3AC1 for this.

How can I copy one material caracteristic into VBKD-BSTKD in VA02?

Hi all,
I need to find a user-exit or BADI to do some changes when I save the order (VA02)
I have to copy the value of the material caracteristic (Configuration) into field VBKD-BSTKD.
Any help would be useful..
thx in advance.

Yes that s my point of view too but my problem is that I need to copy the material caracteristic into the field in table VBKD..
from where can I have the value of one caracteristic and what's the the internal table of caracteristics used in include MV45AFZZ

What next...After Loading 'Material Classification' data in to BW from R/3

Hi all,
    We want to load the 'Material Classification' data in to BW from R/3.
    0MATERIAL_ATTR and 0MAT_PLANT_ATTR are the Basis DataSources and the following DataSources are created with Tcode CTBW:
    1CL_OMAT001, 1CL_OMAT002 & 1CL_AMFG002 (for Texts).
    Suppose the DataSources are Replicated, the InfoPackages are executed. What is the next step, please? Do we have to create any InfoCube after that ?
Thanks.

Hi,
First you have to create info objects to load the data into.
You then have to create infosource and assign the datasources to the infosources.
Once you have finished your replicates and made sure that all rules (transfer and update) are active you execute the info packages and load the data to the info objects.
After you finish with the data loading, you then run the attribute/hierarchy change run to activate the master data you loaded and then load your transaction data.
Cheers,
Kedar

Import Failed loading Material Classification data Links

Hi Friends
Please help me in solving the issue.
I am doing Data Migration, The data is provided in Excel sheet.All the data related to Material is imported successfully in MDM.
But the Material Classification links ( 40K+ rows ) is throwing Import failed error message - screenshot attached.
I have already unmounted repository, mounted again , and started the Repository after verifying it.
Even though this Material Classification links file is throwing the same error .
splitting the file into 10000 rows also throwing the same error.
But when taken only 10 rows in an excel it is importing successfully.
Please suggest.

Texts of Material classification

Helle dears,
I'm trying to extract the material classification from ECC to BW.
It works for the "attributes" but I don't know how to do for extracting the texts.
1/ Attributes
I used the transaction CTBW for generating the datasource for attributes:
Basis Datasource: 0MATERIAL_ATTR
Client: ***
Class Type: 001
Obj. Table: MARA
DataSource type: ATTR
DataSource: 1CL_OMAT001
So my datasource with the attributes of the material classification is generated and works in ECC/BW.
2/ Texts
Some of the fields of 1CL_OMAT001 have texts.
So I tried to use too CTBW as below:
Basis Datasource: 0MATERIAL_ATTR
Client: ***
Class Type: 001
Obj. Table: MARA
DataSource type: TEXT
DataSource: 1CL_OMAT002
But when I want to save, I have the following error message:
" Only "attribute" or "transaction data" are allowed as type "
So how can we extract the texts of the Material classification attributes?
Best regards,
Vince.

hi,
Material classification is nothing but material with classification attributes. The transactional data is loading different attributes in the MD, but to load text you will have to map it to 0MATERIAL_TEXT only.
For the attributes text you will have to find the standard text objects for them, if they are not present then you will have to create customized DS based on the text table of attributes.
regards.
Arvind.
