Industry sector in material master

Dear all,

please advise.
Thanks
Udaya

Hello Udaya,
Branch of industry.
The industry sector groups together companies according to their activities (for example, plant engineering and construction, mechanical engineering, the chemical industry, and the pharmaceutical industry).
Table-driven program support is provided according to industry sector; for example, for the selection of data fields on-screen, for the sequence of the screens, and for the allocation of a material to a material type.
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
which screens appear and in what order
which industry-specific fields appear on the individual screens.
Thanks
Geeta

  • How to modify  industry sector of material master data

    dear all:
    i have already created a material master data using a wrong industry sector through tcode MM01.
    and i have created BOM&ROUTTING for this material.
    now ,i want to modify the  industry sector of  this  material.
    what should i do for this case?
    thank you!
    best regards!

    Hi,
    Industry sector is at client level & once you create the material you can't change the industry sector.
    However, if you have debug rights then you can change it directly in the table MARA with field MBRSH.
    Hope your query get resolved.
    Thanx

  • Industry Sector and Material Type list of values in cFolders

    Hi,
      How to transfer the List of Values for Industry Sector & Material Type from R/3 to cFolders system?
    We have R/3 Production system running for the past 3 years. We are implementing cFolders now. While Material creation in cFolders, the List of Values listed for above mentioned fields are not as per R/3 values. Hence we need to change the same LOV in cFolders as per R/3. How to do it?

    Hi,
    The parameters material type and industry sector are used
    to classify a material. They define its possible uses.
    For example if you selct indutsry type as retail or mechanical it will classssify the material accordingly. again material type is semifinished then this you can also use as a raw material. In mm02 or MM03 u cant see it.
    If you want to see these you can go to SE16 and put table name MARA and can see it.
    Hope this will help.
    Reward point if helpful.

    You can use the function module RFC_READ_TABLE.  The tables that you need to read are T137 for industry sector and T134 for material type.

  • What is the concept of  view in material master?

    Some quetions regarding 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,
    <b>Material master  for finished ggods is related with SD, MM & PP departments</b>. 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.
    <b>1.Suppose Base unit of measure</b> in Basic data 1 screen. The production people will keep the stock of the item using this UOM.
    <b>2. In Sales:Sales Org.1</b> screen we have sales unit in which we will sell the material.
    <b>3. Then we have the plant</b> 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.
    <b>4. Then we have purchasing</b> 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.
    <b>5. The we have MRP</b>, 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.
    <b>5. Sales:Sales Org.2 screen</b> - 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.
    <b>6. Work scheduling</b> - Related with the sceduling of the production as to whether underdelivery or overdelivery is allowed, the storage location
    <b>7. Quality</b> - 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.
    <b>8. Accounting</b> - 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.
    <b>Industry Sector:</b>
    Key that specifies the branch of industry to which the material is assigned.
    <b>Use</b>
    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
    <b>Screens for Sales:</b>
    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.

  • LSMW--Create Material master data

    Hi,
    This is due to error while recording for MM01,
    Please do a Repeat recording and ensure that once the material number, industry sector and material type is entered, on the next screen you need to select all or at least a single view to create the MMR.

  • 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.

  • Label Data view in the material master

    Hi all,
    I read this SAP help portal that said "The Label Data view in the material master allows you to display or  edit label data that is specific to the material. "..
    may I know where I can find this view in the material master?
    Thanks
    Karen

    Dear Karen,
    This "Label Data" is one View in Material Master.
    While creating the Material using T.Code MM01, when you are on the Selection screen of Various views, it is Last Option.
    i.e. Lable Data
    If this view is not there while creating the Material. then it is MM Configuration.
    That view is assinged to Material Type.
    See in Material Master, Industry Sector and Material Types controls these Views. So with the help of MM Consultnat you
    have  to get that View Configured to your Material Type.
    If you find my answer satisfactory, please grant me the points.
    Regards,
    Amol Joshi
