External material number should not contain purely numbers

Hi Gurus,
I have created the material number range for a specific material type. I need the number to be assigned externally. When i try to create a new material master (with only numbers)on the above material type, the system throwing " For the specific material type, external matl no should not contain purely numbers".
Any body pls explain.
Thanks,
Saravanan

hi
check while mentioning number range have u entered any alphabet in from and to filed
i.e from A to ZZZ    then system will ask u to add atlease 1 alphabet
if u use  1000000000    1000099999  as external number range then u can use only numerical numbers in number range
pls  check same

  • External Material Number range

    Dear all,
    Is it possible if I define external number range only with numbers not alphabet. I have defined external number range as 000000001 to zzzzzzzzzzzz but its not accepting external number as 10000203030 when creating material master.
    Pls guide

    Check 2 Function Modules:
    EXIT_SAPLMG02_001 - Customer Exit: Internal Material Number Assignment
    EXIT_SAPLMG02_002 - Customer Exit: External Material Number Assignment
    Also one material type can only be assigned to one internal and one external number range
    both number ranges must not overlay each other,
    Number range can be defined like this from 1 to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz so anything can be done within this one range

  • While create inbound delviery Material number is not showing

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create inbound delivery with reference to Purchase Order.
    While using BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE to create inbound deliveries, the material number is not showing up in the VL33N screen but Material Description is coming.
    As you have also faced same problem,can you please suggest how to resolve this issue?Your help will be highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    This function module doesn't pass Material number while creating the inbound delivery.  Instead you can use the function module GN_DELIVERY_CREATE along with NUMBER_GET_NEXT function module.
    See line number 631 to 656 of include LBBP_SIC_40F02 (Called from Line no 18 of BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE) for more details.
    While using the function module BBP_INB_DELIVERY_CREATE, material number is not passed to the function module (GN_DELIVERY_CREATE) structure field XKOMDLGN-MATNR.

    Hi
    In the method CHANGE_AT_SAVE
    parameter TI_RSEG_NEW uses
    <b>MRM</b> Type Group is used which consists of
    TYPES: BEGIN OF mrm_idoc_data_ers,
             s_rbkp       LIKE  rbkp,
             t_rseg_x     LIKE  rseg  OCCURS 0,
             t_ekbe1      LIKE  ekbe  OCCURS 0,
             t_ekko       LIKE  ekko  OCCURS 0,
             t_ekpo       LIKE  ekpo  OCCURS 0,

  • "Settings for material number conversion not found" occurs when ...

    After I run an initial load data into the InfoCube 0PUR_C01, I want to check the InfoCube Content by the following path:
    RSA1 -> pick up the InfoCube 0PUR_C01, right click it and select Manage -> Get to Content tab -> Click InfoCube Content button -> Deselect all selection, only tick the 1st column checkbox next to 0Material, then hit enter, get a small window titled as "Cancel" with a red STOP msg sysing "Settings for material number conversion not found" with an "Exit" button and a question mark button, click Exit button leads to SAP Easy Access screen, if clicking the question mark button, another window pops up with the msg showed above, click Technical Information button causes the original window short dump and the short dump msg shows below in between two dashed lines:

        Statement "CALL SCREEN" is not allowed in this form.
    What happened?
        Error in ABAP application program.
        The current ABAP program "SAPLSHL2" had to be terminated because on
        statements could not be executed.
        This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
    Error analysis
        There is probably an error in the program
        "SAPLSHL2".
        The program was probably called in a conversion exit
        or in a field exit. These are implemented by
        function modules called CONVERSION_EXIT_xxxxx_INPUT/OUTPUT or
        USER_EXIT_xxxxx_INPUT.
        Conversion exits are triggered during screen field transports or
        WRITE statements, field exits during field transports from the
        screen to the ABAP/4 program.
        In this connection, the following ABAP/4 statements are not allowed:
        -  CALL SCREEN
        -  CALL DIALOG

        Moreover, conversion exits for output conversion
        (implemented by function modules called
        CONVERSION_EXIT_xxxxx_OUTPUT) do not allow

  • How to generate external material number?

    hi all,
    I need to create material in the report. this material number is assigned external (manually). but the user want to generate the number.
    I only found the function ' MATERIAL_NUMBER_GET_NEXT' , which can only generate the internal number.
    Is there other function which can help me to generate the external material number?
    Thanks in advance.
    Ned

    you can use another number range II
    so you use fm number_get_next to generate a material number .
    And you can use this number for mm01 or an interface to create you material number I external
    A.

  • External material number with trailing spaces

    Hi ,
    One of our users created a material number(external number range) by copying it  from a spreadsheet. The value he copied had trailing spaces and when he copied it on to material number field the trailing spaces were not removed by SAP conversion routines . But when we deliberately type in trailing spaces the system removes them. Has anyone faced this kind of problems before? If so what is the solution.
    Thanks,

  • Material revision should not jump

    Hello Team,
    I have a situation which i am trying but not able to resolve the same.
    We have defined the revision levels which can be assigned with ECM as per standard SAP.
    When a person enters the material with change mode and clicks on revision button, the next revision will come automatically he just needs to enter the approved ECM and save the material. But some how the user can jump directly to any revision by selecting the revisions from the F4.
    But client requirement is the user should not be able to jump to any revision levels other the next in the sequence. How to achieve the same.
    regards,
    sai

    In OS54 - you can configure the revision level whether you want it as internal or external or external with sequence.

  • Materialized View - does not contain a primary key constraint

    I am trying to create materialized view. I gone through the MV wizard creation. Added 2 columns (foo_column, foo_pk) of the table and have a simple select statement (Select foo_column from foo_dim). Also created a primary key contrainst and refencing the primary key (FOO_PK) of the dimension.
    I am getting the following error:
    ORA-12014: table 'FOO_DIM' does not contain a primary key constraint

    It was solved. The table that I am querying has to have a primary key defined before creating a materialized view.

  • Delivery Note Number should not repeat again during MIGO

    Hi Friends,
    My client has a requirement to validate the Delivery note filed in the MIGO screen, i.e., the system should allow the user to enter a delivery note number once entered already during goods movement through MIGO. Is there any way that this can be done?
    Regards
    Guru Prasad

    Thanks for the reply Ganesh.
    Explaination of the requirement:
    During goods receipt the user is supposed to enter the delivery challan number of the vendor in the filed "Delivery Note" in MIGO header. If the user by mistake types the same delivery note number again while posting goods reciept for the same vendor in future, the system should throw an error. If there is any user exit or if it can be done through some development kindly suggest the procedure for the same.
    I also checked for the standard system messages, but couldn't find any.
