Defaulting values in material master creation

Hi,
I want to have some filed values to be appeared as default in all the views while creation of material master.
By user settings, I can restrict Org level values such as C Code,S Org Distribution Channel etc etc.
But how to make field values such as account assignment grop,division,valuation class,price control,transport grp,loading grp etc appearing default so that user does not have to think.
Regards,

Hi,
You can set values for Parameter IDs of the fields that you want to default.
Set values in system -> user profile -> own data under parameters tab.
For example Disision's parameter id is 'SPA'. You can set a default value for division by giving proper value for SPA under parameters data in own data.
Hope this will help.

Naveen.

Defalt values in material master?

Hi All,
Is it possible to make default values in material master.
Like material group should be 001 for material type ROH etc
Regards,
RR

Hi Raj,
You can default the org elements and views in the material master.
But you can not make fields inside the views as default.
But coming to your problem, what you can do is:
Try to copy it from existing material, so by default all values inside the views will come.
Hope it helps...

CLEAR field .
field = '(SAPLCLFM)allausp[]' .
...but i need some more elaboration if someone has worked on this...or any other better solution...?

Updation of Consumption values in material master

Dear Experts,
For a FERT ,
When I use strategy 40 , Consumption values ( PGI - Deliveries )are getting updated in MM02 in Forecast view.
whereas,
When I use strategy 50 , Consumption values are not getting updated in MM02 in Forecast view.
Is there any setting to control this updation of Consumption values in Material Master ?
Regards,
Sheik

Hi,
Update of consumption is based on movement type, and you can decide which movement types should have or have not consumption updating.
Check in transaction OMJJ if the movement types in question have indicator "Consumption posting" (field V_156_VC-KZVBU) as marked.
If it is the case, consumption is updated, opposite for un-ticked.
Hope that helps.
Thanks.

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.

Material Master creation workflow

Hi everyone....
Last week I went on the BIT601 training course and I'm now tryinig to create my first workflow for material master creation, so please forgive my rather noobish questions. I think this must be a common workflow but I'm sure every company has a different process.
My process is as follows:
- User creates basic data view for material master in MM01.
- Workflow is triggered when material is saved.
- Work item arrives in inbox of master data enigneer who completes all material master views.
- Mail is sent to workflow initiator to inform that material is complete.
- End of workflow
I have defined the start event CREATED from business object BUS1001006 in my workflow definition. I have defined a standard task for the first step in my workflow using bus object BUS1001006 with method Create. The workflow starts correctly however ...
My question is how do I get the material number to pull through to my first step? I am assuming I need to setup some binding to pull the material number into the workflow container?
Can someone please point in the right direction.
Many thanks,
Neil

wow, thanks for the super quick reply Rob!
I figured it must be some binding I had not done.
So ... I go to my Start events in my workflow header, I see I have only the "auto-generated" binding i.e. EVTCREATOR > WFINITIAOR ....
now, I see EVTOBJECT as a possible container object from the event side of the window (left hand side) but what do I link it too? I was kinda expecting to see my business object as a possible container object in the workflow side of the screen (right hand side).
I really hope that makes sense... If I understand correctly, the idea is to link the event object to the business object container element ... but if thats the case why can't I see my business object in the workflow side of the binding window?
Many thanks for taking the time to help a noob
[edit] ... I may have partially answered my own question ... I think I need to define the properties of my business object in my workflow container element such that its is an input field? ...
I'm going home now... will carry on with this in the morning.

Workflow to approve Material Master creation

Dear all,
I would like to create workflow to approve Material Master creation as below:
When Material is created -> Check & Approval (Yes) -> Material is active
-> Check & Approval (No) -> Material is inactive
How can I do that?
Could you pls help me to solve this?
Thanks,
CH

Hi,
Before designing the workflow, you need to find what is the business object and what is the event which gets triggered when material master is created... you can do that using event trace....
1. SWELS - switch on trace
2. Create material
3. SWEL - check trace to find which event is fired
This will give you business object name..
Now start building workflow using SWDD... Go thru basic steps for designing workflow...

PARAMETER ID VALUE NOT DEFAULTED in CREATE MATERIAL MASTER (MM01)

Hi,
Currently when we create material master we like to defualt the field material group, using PARAMETER ID (MKL-Material group).
I have defined the parameter ID for MKL(material group) and assigned a material group value, log off and log in again.
When I create material master with MM01, the PARAMETER ID is not pickup, the field material group is not defaulted with value defiend for the parameter ID.
Anyone know why it did not works, and how to make the material master field defualted with PARAMETER ID??
best rgds,

As suggested by Jurgen Parameter ID wont work for Data Maintenance screens.
You can go for Transaction Variant SHD0 and Set the Field as Default.

Default material code during material master creation

Dear All,
           While I am trying to create any material in MM01 screen , system automatically takes a material code .So I have to remove that code from there then put my desired material code and then proceed .
            I want to know why system takes that perticular code during material code creation .I want to remove it permanently .
            Please suggest what I have to do ?
Regards
Abhijit Das

Dear Abhijit,
Material Number range & Internal or external number range setting is done in SPRO under
Logistic General>material master>basic setting>material type>Define number range for a perticular material type.
Now if u want to have your own desired code go on above path,Select your material type & tick for external number range & give range of external number( interval).
This will solve your problem,

Bydefault selection of profit centers during material master creation.

Dear SAP Experts,
My business wants that when ever they want to create a new material the profit center field should come bydefault after the selection of the plant.
Each plant has been associated with a profit center.
Is it possible , If yes then How.
Please guide me.
Regards
Debjeet Banerjee

There is no direct link of profit center and plant , the profit center is linked with plant via material master.So you cannot default the profit center when you select the plant while creating the MMR.
Better try with any custom table were you can make this link and default it while creation of material master.

Copy of Batch characteristics value from material master to Batch

Hi Gurus,
I have maintained some values in the characteristics under batch classification in material master and want to copy the values in batch characteristics during batch creation at process order release.
Can any one help me to achieve this in standard way?
Thanks
Sandip

Hi,
Try to understand the batch classification functionality...In batch classification characteristic values changes from batch to batch...Values should not be maintained in the material master...it does not have any meaning...in the material master we need to assign only the batch class with class type 023 in classification view ...no need to assign the values there....Batch classification means characteristics values differs from batch to batch...
Thanks
Kumar
