How to change material type and industrial sector of the exsisting material

Hi,
There is an issue where user wants to change material type and industrial sector of the exsisting material .Is it posible to do so??
IF not ,how can we delete that material from material master so that another material with same number and required material type and industrial sector can be created.
Points will be definitely rewarded.
Thanks
Rohit

Hi Rohit,
You can change the material type in MMAM trxn code if the material dosenot conatain any open purchase requisitions, open reservations & open purchase orders. Also material stock should be zero.
Remember the new material type should have same attributes same as old material type.
OLD Material New Material
1) Standard Price 1) Standard Price
2) Manufacture part 2) Manufacture part
profile actvated profile actvated
3) Quantity & Value 3) Quantity & Value
Updation in all areas Updation in all areas
4) should have same GL 4) Should have same GL acs
acs
It is not possible to change Industry sector once created.
If you want to delete the Material, you can flag it in MM06 trxn code.
Reg,
Ashok

Relationship between material type and industry sector

Hi experts
when using t-code mm01,there are two fields material type and industry setor in screen.Is there any relationship between material type and industry sector? I want to know if user be able to see the material type related to particular industry sector?
thanks in advance!

Hello
There is no direct relationship between the material type and the industry sector.
The industry sector is used only for field sttus maintenance (fields in display/optional/requierd entry) in transactions.
We will assign seperate field reference groups to industry sectors and deopending on how we configure the field references, the fields will appear for the materials created for that industry sector.

Adding Plant and Industry Sector

Hello friends
I want to know how to create a plant and industry sector. Are there any transaction codes. I tried to do it from the main menu that shows up when I log on to the ERP system. I even tried through SPRO. But it is not straight forward.
Also after creating the plant and industry sectors are there any other connected things that need to be configured so that I won't keep getting messages saying some thing is not configured etc.,
Any feedback or suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

In SAP 4.6c In classical reports output how to change Font size and Font type

Dear Experts,
In SAP 4.6c, in classical and interactive reports output how to change font size and font type.
Regards,
Zaker.

These are HTML formatting questions. Nothing to do with the Oracle SQL and PL/SQL languages.
With old-style HTML, the font size and family are set using the font tag.
With modern style HTML, that is done using cascading style sheets (CSS).
Your favourite search engine will turn up tons of information on both.

Industry sector of the Material

Hi there!
Do we have any way out to find out the 'Industry Sector' for the material (irrespective of any material type) which is already created and available in the system.
Ex: Material - XYZ - Is created in the system a year back.
I want to know the which industry sector does it belong to?
Is there any way out? If Yes, What are the ways to find out this.
Regards,
Suresh

Dear,
Use MARA table.
Enter SE16 t-code.
Here enter table MARA and press enter.
Then enter your material codes and click on execute.
You will get material wise industry list

Material Type and Negative Stock Problem

Dear All SAP Experts,
Please provide suitable solution for the following business scenario to avoid negative stock continuously and which material type should we select for the material mentioned below:
GAS Supplying Company (Main Source)
Client - GAS Trading Company
Material GAS supply through Pipe Lines
Purchases - GAS from main source treated, received as single material for purchase point of view
Trading Good GAS supply to different type of customers, different purposes, different rates, different segments and different billing cycles for sales point of view
Consumption 1.Based on meter reading at Main Source point for purchase quantity on daily basis.
2.Based on meter reading at different customer locations, different purposes, different segments, different rates, different meter reading cutoff cycles and different billing cycles.
Main source company raise invoice with different rates on client fortnightly based on the consumption for different type of customers, different purposes in different segments. i.e. for domestic purposes one rate, industrial purposes another rate etc.
How to provide reading figures fortnightly to main source company, how to check consumption and if at all any negative stock in MM how to avoid negative stock in SAP?

As the scenario is describes material should be Pipeline material....and further for this material type....
Genrally for price of pipeline material :You determine the price of a pipeline material from a vendor in a pipeline info record. You can only post pipeline movements after you have created the pipeline info record.
So for different vendor different prices will come into picture....
I dont think pipeline material will have negitive stock....

Is business area and industry sector are same.

Hi All,
   is company code is related to industry sector in any way???
is industry sector related thro business area then, or is business area and industry sector are one and the same.
Thanks
Sathsih

Dear Satish,
Business Area - Organizational unit of external accounting that corresponds to a specific business segment or area of responsibility in a company. Movements in value entered in Financial Accounting are assigned to business areas.
Financial statements can be created for business areas for internal purposes.
The definition of the business area organizational unit is optional.
Business areas are used in external segment reporting (over and above company codes), based on the significant areas of operation of a company (for example, product lines, branches).
To define business areas, choose the following in Customizing for the Enterprise Structure: Definition -> Financial Accounting -> Define Business Area.
If you have defined business areas, the transaction figures for the G/L accounts are managed separately for internal evaluation purposes. You can therefore create internal financial statements for business areas.
If you want to create financial statements for business areas, you must make sure that the Business area field is ready for input in all the line items. To do this, proceed as follows in Customizing for Financial Accounting: Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Business Area -> Enable Business Area Balance Sheet.
To post items in a business area, enter the business area when you enter the business transaction. However, the business area can also be derived from other account assignments, such as the cost center. To enable the system to do this, you must define the business area in the cost center master record.
If you enter a cross-company code document, you can post to different business areas across all company codes in one document. As a result, any number of combinations of company code and business area are possible.
Industry Sector - When you create a material master record, you are required to classify the material according to industry sector and material type.
The standard system contains the following industry sectors. The ID used to identify the industry sector internally appears in parentheses.
·        Plant engineering and construction (A)
·        Chemical industry (C)
·        Mechanical engineering (M)
·        Pharmaceuticals (P)
The other sectors are for retail.

Naveen.

Hi Sruthi,
all you need to do on this is open the report go to the parameters, select the parameter that you wish to change and click "Edit". This will allow you to change thefield to a date rather than a date time.

Link material type and item category.

Hi,
Can you brief me on how following setting in SPRO works?
Plant maintenance - Maintenance and service processing - Maintenance and service order - General data - Define default values for componenet item category
When i checked, this setting is to link item category with the material type and item category is defined based on the material type and maintenance plant. But what is the relation in term of the order type i.e. whenever i create any order with a specifica order type, the default item category should get reflected on the componenets tab of the order?
Is it possible?
Can you guide me how to do this setting.
Thansks

Hi,
Yes it is posible to make all order types item category mark as stcok item "L" as default value. Very well u can set it at following menu path under PM&CS Node
Maintenance and Service Orders
Functions and Settings for Order Types
General Data
Define Default Values for Component Item Categories
