LSMW to Extend Material Master

Hello Team,
I am trying to extend the Accounting views of some
materials. As you know, those views are beyond the first page of the
window for view selection. So I have to page down to select them.
But the system is not able to record the transaction even though I was
able to save the material at the recording.
However, when I run the batch process, it fails to create those materials
and tells me that I should select at least one view.
I will appreciate any feedback on this topic.

Try saving the "off screen" mateiral views as defaultly selected using MM01 under the user ID that will run the LSMW.  Then run the LSMW without selecting the tabs but simply clicking the green check and jumping to the selected (defaulted) tabs.  Hope this helps.
Regards.

  • Extend material master data from one plant to another plant

    hi,
    how can i extend material master data from one plant to another plant.
    is there any sap standard transaction for this ie. bdc/t-code.
    thanks in advance.......
    rahul

    Hi
    If you want to extend the material form one plant to another then below are the possible options.
    1) MM01 - Use the material in the reference and fill in copy from and to then press enter to complete the extention.This is recommended only if you want to extend very less records.
    2) Use LSMW and record MM01 thru BDC recording available in LSMW and make the template in excel and convert it to .txt tab delimited format to upload more records.LSMW is the perfect tool and is used extensively in all the projects.
    3) Get the help from ABAPer to create upload program and include the BDC recording.
    There is no standard T code available in SAP becoz data mainatenance in the material master will be based on the industry.
    Hope it will help.
    Thanks/Karthik

  • To extend material master in condition that split valuation.

    I want to valuate the material at two different valuation class
    if the material is produced internally  and procured externally.
    So I use split valuation function.
    I created accounting view  using valuation category  at plant level and
    I extended accounting view using valuation type.
    I tried to extend material master for other plant in condition that
    I didnu2019t check batch management in purchasing view
    but I mat error message u201CIndividual batch valuation not possible hereu201D(M3184).
    To extend material master for other plant, Should I check batch management
    in purchasing view ?

    Hi,
    Select the batch management indicator on purchasing view, press F1 button and check technical details. If the field is:
    MARA-XCHPF --> batch management is active at client.
    MARC-XCHPF --> batch management is active at plant level
    Please check SAP online help on batch level:
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/25/2838714f7811d18a150000e816ae6e/frameset.htm
    Batch Levels
    Plant level
    The batch number is unique in connection with the plant and material.
    The batch number is only known in the plant in which it was created if the stock is transferred to another plant, the batch is unknown in the recipient plant and the system does not adopt any data. You have to recreate and specify the batch in the receiving plant; that is, the same batch number may have different specifications in several plants.
    Material level:
    The batch number is unique in all plants in connection with the material.
    The same batch number has the same meaning for the material in all plants. One batch number cannot have different specifications in different plants. During stock transfer to another plant, the specification of the batch is known in the destination plant even if the batch is placed into storage in that plant for the first time.
    Client level:
    The batch number is unique in the whole client. A batch number can only be assigned once in the client. You cannot assign the same batch number for different materials.
    The batch number is only unique at the chosen level.
    If your batch maagement is valid at client / material level you defined it once in table MARA and it is valid for all your plants - that's why you get it automatically (if this is the reason in real).

  • Extending material master for different sales org/plant combination

    hi ,
    1 ) a material can be sold from one plant by many sales organisations. so we map this scenario in enterprise structure by the config step "assign sales org--dist channel--
    plant ". (let's say sales org A and B  selling from plant 1 and also sales org A selling from plant 2)
    when we have defined the above config step, then why we need to have material master extended for different combination of sales org and plant as in stpe 1 ?. we can just create one material master with one plant and sales org combination and based on config as in step one, we can sell material from any sales org from a plant  ?
    2) we can extend  material master for any combination of sales org/plant .....is it also possible to extend material master to different storage locations !

    There are several reasons why you should extend the materails to different sales organizations and plants.
    a. The materials are normally valuated at the plant level. So, you can have different valuations at different plants.
    b. You can have different quantity stored in different plants. How do you know which plant has what quantity.
    c. You can have materail not to be sold from one plant, but you can have the same materail sold from the other, how do you block it? at the plant and materail combination, you can do it.
    d. For different sales organizations, you may want the cost and the price to be posted to different GL accounts. You can control it at sales org level of the materail.
    e. You may just want the material to be purchased but not sold, then you may not even create a sales org view for the material. But say, in future you will like to only purchase a materail from a plant and consume it for some other purpose but not sales (which u did previously), then you can block it at sales org and dbr level.
    So, these are a few reasons. But there could be many. You can have a look at the fields in the material master at sales org level and plant level and you can find it for yourself howmany parameters are there to control...
    Hope this helps...

  • LSMW-CREATION OF MATERIAL MASTER

    Dear Experts,
    I tried creating a new material using LSMW, after the recording it recorded some checkboxes(KZSEL_01, KZSEL_03....06, i dont really know how to deal with these check boxes in the maintain source field section, any contribution will be highly appreciated, thanks

    zkarnalkar  explained it already: he fields which you have mention are the select views which you have selected while creating the material master, like basic data1 basic data2, purchasing etc.
    The fields on this selection dynpro are variable, their position depends on the the material type definition if you do MM01 or on already maintained views if you do MM02.
    Which means in turn that you have to do an extra  recording for any material type.
    This is just the first variable screen. MRP views have as well variable fields, based on an entry in one field a different field becomes hidden or mandatory. So you need as well an extra recording for any variant  in the MRP views
    Recording is the worst import method for a material master, as recording is static and material master is high dynamic.
    Use BAPI method, IDOC method or direct input method. They are all delivered by SAP and work well.

  • Problem in extending material master data using BAPI?

    Hi all,
    I have created a program to upload material master using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA WITH VIEWS
    Basic view, purchase view, account view , storage view and MRP view. I am successful while uploading this data while not  taking  the valuation type  field to account view(passing only valuation area,valuation class and moving price).
    But when i am trying to pass valuation type field also then it is giving error as 'First create the valuation-type-independent data' .
    So i have written another program to extend this material to enter valuation type , then it is giving the error as 'Valuation category does not allow split valuation'.
    Please help me to solve this problem and while modifying what are the mandatory values to pass to BAPI?
    Thanks,
    Vamshi.

    Hi VAMSHI,
    I have your same error but I don't know how to solve it. We have active "material split valuation" and valuation type is mandatory field if using ACCOUNTING and COSTING views.
    Please, let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

  • LSMW - RMDATIND Upload material master

    Hi All,
    I'm using LSMW direct input method (RMDATIND) to upload material master. However, I'm having issues on uploading material prices (eg: moving average price) where the format uploaded was incorrect.
    LSWM Data Source I've declared for VERPR (Moving Average Price) is character with 14 Length size. Values populated in upload file is eg: 132.93.
    The value been created in material master is-> 13  293,00.
    Can anyone advise on this issues? Is there any wrong to input value or data source declaration? Thanks.

    Hi Blue Sky,
    execute the whole process of LSMW in direct input  and go to SM35 to check and process the session manually,,

  • Extend Material Master - Sales Org.

    Hi,
    I want to copy the material from one sales org. distribution channel to another sales org. distribution channel. My doubt is I want to use BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA. But how to use this??
    Because that material is not present in the target sales org. distribution channel, so for that I have to copy all the views except sales view using BAPI_MATERIAL_GETALL then pass to BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.
    In this the problem is.. I have to map all the fields between these BAPI. So is there any easy way to do this?
    Can anyone have similar requirement like this which can share??
    Thanks,
    Regards,
    Jhings.
    Edited by: Jhings on Mar 7, 2012 7:26 PM

    Check these threads about the mandatory fields for your requirement:
    BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA extend for new plant whats necessary
    Extend material using bapi_material_savedata
    About transfer the material data from BAPI_MATERIAL_GETALL to structures to be used on BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA, i think that MOVE field by field is the better way once there won't many fields to be populated.
