Mass changes of Material Master field with different values

Hi,
How to change a field in Material Master for more than thousand materials. I think MM17 can only be used for mass changes of materials with same values. I need to upload different values for different materials. Is there any other way to do this.
Thanks,
K R Vishnu Kumar

Hi Kumar.
I think you have to use LSMW for mass updation for Material Master fields with different values.

Rahul.

  • Mass change of material master

    Hi Experts,
    I have a query regarding mass change to be done in material master. I need to update one value in the Material group 4 field in sales org view 2 in MM02 transaction for nearly 300000 materials. One option i find is LSMW and the other i saw is transaction MM17. Please let me know how feasible is this MM17 transaction? Is it possible to upload all the 30000 materials through MM17 transaction in one go and update the field? Will there be any performance issue if MM17 transaction is used?
    Please give your suggestion.
    Thanks
    Dinakar

    Hi,
    Use MM17,
    Goto the Transaction code MM17 and in the table check the MVKE- sales org data for material
    and select the Fields tab and choose the field MVKE-MVGR4 and  execute
    Now enter all the materials in the next screen  for which you want to change  and execute
    In the next screen you can maintain the new values for the old
    Please check and revert

  • Mass change for material master data

    Dear all,
    Previously my company had marked some storage location for MRP indicator to exclude the storage location stock from MRP run.
    Now I need to reactive back those storage location, where should I go?
    I know a way which can active back material by material (tcode: MM02), but that is too slow for me, because I need to active back around hundrreds of materials.
    Anyone know where can I modify the storage location indicator and active back it? I had test MM17, MASS, LSMW.. but it seems like not supported for SAP version 4.0B.
    Hope will get reply soon, this issue was quite urgent.
    Thanks!

    Hi Murty,
    You need to create a View on the different field set which might be composed across different Tables. Once the view is created you need to create a Search Help using that View by selecting the fields that will come in the Help. Below is the step by step Documentation for the Search Help Creation.

    But after going through your statement, I have one concern. As you mentioned that you don't have any access for the calling FM in a Report Program, then I doubt whether you will have authorization for the Data Dictionary Object creation also. Just check the Roles and Authorization assigned to your user. You need the S_DEVELOP Authorization Object for any new create.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problem with mass IDoc for Material Master

    Hi All,
    Can anyone suggest a solution to work with mass IDocs for Material master?
    We have DEBMDM and CREMDM as mass capable IDocs for Customer and Vendor. How do we get mass Material Master IDocs from R/3 in a single XML file?
    Also the standard Material repository supplied with SAP MDM 5.5 SP3 doesn't have any XSD definition for MATMDM. Can anyone throw some light on this problem?
    Regards
    Pooja

    Hello Pooja:
    The standard way to do it is to generate a single file containing multiple idocs (And for the sake of performance, I suggest you stick to this technique).
    In the case of material master, everything is straight forward. In the case of customer and vendor master, when data flows from R/3 to MDM no idoc conversion needs to be performed by XI.
    However, for the case of customer and vendor master, when data flows from MDM to R/3, XI needs to separate the data in CREMDM to CREMAS and ADRMAS in order for R/3 to be able to process the idocs; as well as separate the data in DEBMDM to DEBMAS and ADRMAS.
    The good thing is that you do not need to worry about all this mappings and conversions in XI. The only thing you need to do in XI is to import the standard business content for SAP MDM 5.5 into XI.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Jorge.

  • Not able to transfer changes in material master (periodic)

    Hi Friends,
    Got an issue here. I am not able to transfer the changes I made in material master. I want this as periodic, Made the specific setting in CFC9. And for your information 'Activate ALE Change Pointers Generally' and for massege type are activated.
    But when I execute CFP1 I got massege: 'No appropriate master data changes: Transfer has not happen'.
    I made changes in material master (global level),..like gross weight changed. Material is in active IM, no duplication.
    Any help Please? We are on SCM 7.0.
    Thanks,
    Satyajit

    OK, Guys I think I need to raise an OOS... It was for SCM 7.0, but was basic config....thts why I edited the thread so many times expecting some responce.
    Edited by: Satyajit Patra on Mar 22, 2010 7:41 AM

    Hi Satyajit,
    Please look at OSS  Note 1069560 - Data inconsistencies: Activating integration. models in parallel, if this helps you.
    Since  Gross data of material is in the basic view, it is common across plants , whereas, IMs are normally designed to have material masters at plant level.
    We may have same material in different IMs with different  plants. Therefore changes of the basic view fields are then contained in multiple IMs.  SAP advises to have a larger IM or sequential activation of IMs.
    I hope this will  help you .

  • Create Material Master Data with BAPI

    Hi,
    I don't know using of BAPI. I want using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA bapi for creating material master data for Basic Data1, Basic Data2, Purchasing and MRP views. Does anybody can help me ?
    Thank you
    Good night

    Hi,
    Please refer to the documentation below:
    BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
    Short Text
    Create and Change Article Master Data
    Functionality
    You use this method to create new material master data or to change existing material master data. The data on a material can be transferred for each call.
    When creating material master data, you must transfer the material number, the material type, and the industry sector to the method. You must also enter a material description and its language.
    When changing material master data, you need enter only the material number.
    In the header data, you must select at least one view for which data is to be created. Depending on the view selected, you must maintain other required parameters. If you do not enter values for all of the required parameters, the method is ended with an error message.
    The corresponding fields in the tables (such as CLIENTDATA) must first be supplied with data by the calling program. An indicator must also be set for each of these fields so that the data is written to the database by the method. This requires the calling program to supply the corresponding field with the indicator in a checkbox table (for example, CLIENTDATAX). Checkbox tables exist for tables that do not contain any language-dependent texts (MAKT, MLTX), International Article Numbers (MEAN), or tax classifications (MLAN). Several data records for a material can be created in these tables.
    If a structure contains fields for units of measurement (such as structure CLIENTDATA, field BASE_UOM), language indicators (such as structure MATERIALDESCRIPTION, field LANGU), or country indicators (such as structure TAXCLASSIFICATIONS, field DEPCOUNTRY), there is always a field of the same name with the ending _ISO. This makes it possible to transfer either the internally used SAP code or a standardized ISO code for the units of measurement, language indicators, or country indicators. ISO codes are converted to an SAP code internally for further processing. The ISO code is used only if the SAP code is not transferred. If you use ISO codes, there must be a unique assignment of the ISO code to the SAP code in the following activities in Customizing for Global Parameters:
    Check Units of Measurement
    Define Countries
    If you want to maintain long texts (basic data texts, internal comments, purchase order texts, material memos, or sales texts) or customer-defined fields for a material, some special conditions have to be observed. They are described in the documentation for parameters MATERIALLONGTEXT and EXTENSIONIN.

  • PuP price not changed in Material master

    Hello All experts
    I have one question about the material ledger related transaciton, I have a Material with 2+V (price deter. and price control) setting in Material master data in Accounting 1 TAB. And material ledger is active for this material, the Periodic Unit price is 1 USD in current period and stock is 0.
    One PO posted for this Material for purchase with actual price 100 USD, and 101 movement type with special stock indicator E was used in Goods receipt posting. I think these stock will be treated as valuated sales order stock. But GR posting didn't trigger any PuP price change in Material master. Is that situation normal? Pls kindly help.

    With price control V in activity-based material price determination (indicator2 in the material master), the moving average price is calculated. With price control S, the material is valuated with the standard price and the moving average price is calculated for information purposes.
    In single-/multi-level material price determination(indicator 3 in the material master), the valuation price (standard price) remains unchanged and a periodic unit price is calculated for the closed period.
    This option is only for materials with price control indicator S,and is only recommended if in addition to multiple currencies and/or valuations, you use single-/multi-level material price determination.
    In single-/multi-level material price determination, a periodic unit price is updated for information, but it can only be used for material valuation in the closed period.

  • Mass change of customer master data

    Hi,
    I would like to do a mass change of customer master data.
    I need to remove the international VAT register number for local Polish customers, as we will use the local NIP number for these customers.
    Which transaction code do I need to use?
    Are there any things I should keep in mind?
    Thank you.
    Kind regards,
    Linda

    Hi,
    You haev a Transaction called MASS. Please check whether you have the authorization for the same. If you have then it is very much easy for you to maintain the same. If you dont have the MASS authorization then you have to create a LSMW and then make the change.
    Steps:
    1. Enter MASS
    2. Object type - Select KNA1 (avaialble in the drop down) and execute
    3. You should have an option "Customer master (VAT registration numbers general section) " with table KNAS. Execute
    You will be able to choose those customers whom you want and make the changes.
    Hope this should help you.
