How to view archived material master

Hi,
I need to view the archived master master.
When I checked in forum I found out it can be done through tcode SARA
and object MM_MATNR. But I cant find archived material master in it.
Please guide me.

sathya

Hi Sathya,
The set of files which you are getting are the archive files. All your archived materials will be contained in those files. If you know the date when the material you are looking for was archived, you can select the archive file which was created on that date. Or as Juergen mentioned, if there is a proper note for the archiving session, it will be easier to find. In case you dont know the archiving date / there is no archiving note, then you may have to run MM72 on the archive files one by one till you get your material.
Thanks,
Naveen

How to remove any view from material master

Hello guys,
   Actually we can attach the view to material master by MM01 and also by MM50.
   Now,consider this, in my company even we sale the semifinished material along with the finished material.So we have attached the sales view to semifinished material and finished material.Now my company has decided to not to sale the semifinished material.So there is no sense in keeping the sales view in material master of semifinished material.So we want to remove the sales view from the material master of semifinished material.
     So could you guys help me out to do this?

Hi
From the config for Material type attributes you can change the views relevant to Material type means you can unselect the sales views - that will definately take care of the new materials that will be created. But for the existing one's and the data is something you need to see and investigate
I would advice you to check all the aspects in dev client and then take a decision.
Thanks

Hi,
Archiving the Material Master
Transaction SARA contains all the SAP archiving objects for all the SAP R/3 applications modules.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
All the SAP archive functions are shown in SARA. Choose the corresponding SAP archive object, hit enter and the archive administration menu will be shown. Provided here will be an example on how to archive the SAP Material Master.
Archive a Material Master Record
When a material is no longer required in a company or plant, you can archive and delete the material master record.
You have to Flag the material master record for deletion. This is known as logical deletion.
Before a material master record can be archived and deleted, other objects (such as purchasing documents) that refer to this material must themselves be archived. You can see which objects these are and the dependencies between them in the network graphic.
If a material master record cannot be archived and deleted at a given organizational level, the reason is given in the log (for example, a purchase order exists for the material). The log also contains technical data such as the number of material master records read and the number deleted.
Some of the archive error log message :-
Costing data exists
Use in routing
Use in sales and distribution
Use in bill of material
Delivery exists
Costing data exists
Info record exists
Purchase order exists
The Archiving steps :-
Archiving object MM_MATNR for archiving material master records.
You can display the archived data, but not reload it.
To archive the material master, first goto transaction MM71.
Type in a variant name and click Maintain. (Tick the Test Mode for archive simulation).
Save the variant.
Maintain the Start date and Spool parameters and click execute.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the archive status.
To do a permanent delete, goto transaction SARA and click Delete button.
Maintain the Archive Selection, Start date and Spool parameters.
Click Test Session for testing or click execute to start the deletion program.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the delete status.
Now, if you goto MM02/MM03, you will not be able to find the record in the material master.
Thanks

Current period in Accounting 1 view of Material Master

Dear Experts,
In Accounting 1 view of Material Master there is a current period, now it is 12 2009.
Is it possible to make it 11 2009, if yes how to do it.
Please help if you have solution. it is very crucial for me.
Thank you for your support.
Regards,
Zusen

Hi,
Please read the Solution part of note 487381. There is still a few things need to be carry out before you can proceed
with the initialization :
Bear in mind that the initialization of a posting period has the
following effects concerning the period stocks:
    o The initialization of the posting period to a previous or to any
       posting period may lead to the loss of the information of the
       inventory balances of the previous periods.The book value of the
       current posting period is taken as the basis also for values of
       the previous period in this case.
       If you want to continue working with this new posting period, in
       addition you should execute report Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES attached so
       that history entries greater or equal to the new posting period
       will be deleted.
    o If you have to briefly reset the posting period by one period
       (for example, postings must still be posted in a certain period)
       just to make a correction (and for a small number of postings),
       you should initialize the posting period back again to the old
       value so that the values of the previous period will not be lost
       (you should forbid postings when carrying out corrections).
       However, afterwards the values of the previous period or the
       history records (as of Release 4.5) of the materials posted in
       this case are inaccurate.
       You should NOT execute report Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES in this case.
    o However, if the posting period is generally reset again to a
       previous posting period and if postings were made during this
       time, all information on the inventory balance of the previous
       periods is lost.
       As of Release 4.5a, you should use the cited correction report
    Z_DEL_HIST_ENTRIES in order to delete history records that are
    more current than the current posting period.Otherwise, it can
    result in deviations (inconsistencies) for the update of the
    history records.
o Important! If there are open physical inventory documents that
    have status 'counted' or for which indicator 'Freeze inventory
    balance' has been set, you should reject these if they refer to a
    previous period or have been created in the former previous
    period.The inventory difference to be posted can be determined
    from the current book value of the previous period and the book
    quantity frozen in the physical inventory document (ISEG-BUCHM)
    and does not match the inventory balance of the previous period
    that is currently valid.

Hi,
go to MMBE and check the Current Serial number...for FHMI type

What is the concept of view in material master?

Hello sap gurus
Some quetions regarding Material Master
what is the concept of views in material master ?
what is determined by specifying industry sector in material master ?
To sell material which views are material are maintened in Material master?
Regards
Amit

Hi,
Material master for finished ggods is related with SD, MM & PP departments. If you carefully go through the various screens in MM record you will realize the importance of the respective fields and the department to which they belong.
1.Suppose Base unit of measure in Basic data 1 screen. The production people will keep the stock of the item using this UOM.
2. In Sales:Sales Org.1 screen we have sales unit in which we will sell the material.
3. Then we have the plant data in which we enter the delivering plant. Also the taxes are determined from the plant so we have the settings for taxes also - whether this material is fully taxable/50% tax/Tax exempted.
4. Then we have purchasing screen in which the data like the purchasing group, variable units,etc are entered. This will effect the purchasing cycle when we are procuring a material from outside. This is related to MM.
5. The we have MRP, this is related to PP as to how to manufacture the product, the MRP type, the strategy group - whether it is MTO/MTS like that.
5. Sales:Sales Org.2 screen - Here we mainatin the account assignment group which is very important as far as the generation of the accounting document is concerned. This triggers the system where to post the value in which G/L account. Accounting document is generated when we create the invoice in VF01 & save it.
6. Work scheduling - Related with the sceduling of the production as to whether underdelivery or overdelivery is allowed, the storage location
7. Quality - Here you can select for a particular finished item where where it has to be checked for quality during its journey from the raw material stage to the finished goods store as a finished item.
8. Accounting - Related to accounting, product costing, total value of the stock in hand, etc. Also related with FI & PP
So all the screens have data which effects one or more modules for the proper functioning of the system to give the optimum results.
Industry Sector:
Key that specifies the branch of industry to which the material is assigned.
Use
When you create a material master record, the industry sector you specify determines
1. which screens appear and in what order
2. which industry-specific fields appear on the individual screens
Screens for Sales:
Sales:Sales Org.1, Sales:Sales Org.2. But other screens also have data which is related to sales. You cannot just maintain the sales views and save the master. It has to be properly linked with the other modules also for the proper functioning of the system. That is why the system is called as "Enterprise Resource Planning" You have to paln the resources of your company and these resources are related with all the modules.
Reward points if solution helps.

View using Material master,Vendor master and PO tables

Hello folks.
There is a requirement to create view using material master tables ( MARA,MARC,MARD,MAKT & MBEW ) , vendor master tables ( LFA1 & LFB1) and
Purchase order tables ( EKKO & EKPO tables).
I have created the attribute views for material and vendor master tables separately.Now I am thinking about the following design pattern.
1. Join the material master master attribute view to EKPO table using the inner join to create a analytic view1.
2. Join the material vendor master attribute view to EKKO table using the inner join to create a analytic view2.
3. Now create calculate view using join to combine analyticalview1 & analyticalview2.
Please suggest me the best optimize pattern and am strange to SAP HANA. Please also clarify the following doubts.
1. What is the role of system supplied default aggregation node?
2. How can I use Union node in the calculation view in the current requirement because people/documentation always suggesting using of Union than Join?
Thanks & Regards,
Suresh Kuturu

I have managed to create the Analytic view as per my requirement.. No need to use calculation view in this case..
