What are the views/fields that we can't change by Mass maintenance of MMR(material master record)?

Hello friends,
I would like to know the fields/views that we can not change by using mass maintenance of MMR if there are open PO for that particular material in concern. Likewise there was a question in SAP certification exam having options: "base unit of measure", "material type" and so on....

in general you can change any field that can be changed in MM02. if the field is grayed then you cannot. e.g. if you make use a MRP profile. and in this profile the maintenance of those fields is disabled then you cannot do it MM17 either.

Vendor Mass Maintenance

Hi,
I would like to do Mass Maintenance for 2000 vendors in my Client's system. I have to update the Telephone number field of General Data in Vendor Master.
These vendors are created for different Company codes and a Single Purchasing Organization.
I believe we can do Vendor Mass Maintenance through the Transaction code XK99 in standard SAP.
Can anyone please provide me the steps for executing the Vendor Mass Maintennace.
Its a High a Priority issue, and would be glad if I can get an immediate reply.
Thanks in Advance,
Pavan

HI,
the vendor mass maintenance is very useful for maintaining large numbers of vendors with the same data.
So if you are adding the same telephone number to every vendor then this is easy and can be done in seconds, but what you want (I believe) is to maintain different data (i.e. phone numbers) against each vendor.
To do this you should use LSMW or CATs scripts or similar, that way you can use a spreadsheet with the numbers and get the program to populate them correctly, with one run of the program, automatically.

Custom fields not getting updated in Mass Maintenance-MM17

Hi,
I have created a custom field in MARC table and the data is getting updated to the MARC table through MM01/MM02 but it is not getting updated by MM17. I have checked the notes 44410, 576160, 414020 and 116311. I have done the following changes as per the sap notes.
1. Created a custom segment ZE1MARCM by copying the standard segment E1MARCM and added the custom field in that
    segment.
2. I have extended the IDOC 'MATMAS03' and added the custom segment ZE1MARCM to E1MARAM.
3. Created a new entry in we82 and provided the extension type 'ZMATMAS03' and release '701'.
4. Adjusted the partner profile in we20 for matmas with port and providing the extension idoc type.
5. Added the custom field in the table MASSFLDLST.
6. Implemented the code in BADI 'MG_MASS_NEWSEG' and exits 'EXIT_SAPLMV01_002' , 'EXIT_SAPLMV02_002' as per the
    sap notes.
The custom field is not getting updated through mass maintenance. Please let me know if i have missed anything?
Thanks,
Geeta

I had this same question several years ago. Please check my answer at Initialize MARC Custom Fields Using MM17 Does Not Work

Restrict change authorization for MM17 (Material master mass maintenance)

Hi,
Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong forum. I want to know if it is possible to use the mass maintenance transaction MM17 (indus. material) to display data only istead of change/create. Is there some setting at the basis object level which can enable this? There are currently a lot of custom abap reports and queries in our system for viewing material master data, these can all be replaced by MM17. Basically we want to use MM17 as a reporting tool to display data only. Is a solution possible? Help is appreciated, thanks.
Regards

Have you tried the MM Information System node in the SAP Easy Access menu? There are a bunch of standard reports with navigation options there, for the user who has the correct authorization to display only.
Alternately, you may want to take a look into transaction MASS and use the B_MASSMAIN object, depending on your requirements - but test it well.
Cheers,
Julius

Good issue using mass maintenance

Hi SAP fans,
I'm about to do good issue process using movement type 551 Scrapping.
the users want to have 1 document number for 1 thousand material to scrap.
is there any mass maintenance for good issue ?

Hi
If you want to post large number of lin items in one document you need to use the BAPI - BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE
condition being all the line items should belong to one plant....
You can get more details on the BAPI using T.code BAPI -> Materials Management -> Inventory Management -> GoodsMovement -> CreateFromData here click on the documentation tab....
Thanks & Regards

Mass maintenance -Material Master

Dear All,
I have to change 400 materials (material description) by using mass maintennace(mm17).In this 400 material,for example
"cristal100-c1"
"cristal200-c1"
"cristal300-c1"
for three materials, I want to add "by vendor", for example
"cristal100-c1 by vendor"
"cristal200-c1 by vendor"
"cristal300-c1 by vendor"
In mm17, i selected table & fields, in the new values column fields - how to enter????????
Anyboday can help me?
Points willbe given more...
Regards,
Jaheer,Yanbu,KSA.

HI,
I feel it is not possible in Mass maintenance. i feel you will replace many fields with a common field by mass maintenance. But you have to change to different fields which is not possible i think
You have to build a LSMW for MM02 and do the changes.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran

Issue in Alternative unit of measure (MARM) update using MM17

Hi,
I have tried to update alternative unit of measure (MARM) for some materials using MM17.
It is working for some unit of measures (Like FT).
But if I try to changes the unit of Measure value for PLB (Counter & Denominator) or DLB it is changing for UNC, if UNC unit of measure is not there for that material then the UNC is getting created.
But according to MM17 functionality I think PLB values should change.
Please check and let me, if you have any solution or any one faced the same issue.
Thanks
sham.

Hi Sham,
Your problem could be caused by wrongly assigned ISO codes to the unit of measures involved. Most probably to these unit of measures   the same ISO code is assigned. This leads then to problems in the ALE interface of the material master, which is used too by the mass maintenance transaction MM17.
There only the ISO-code is given and then the System doesn't know the correct unit of measure, which
should be used. So it is possible, that the change is done for a wrong unit of measure.
Please check for this your customizing in transaction CUNI.
Regards
Mauro

Mass maintenance of 3000 materials

Dear all,
My requirement is to maintain the safety stock values for 3000 materials thru' mass maintenance MM17 for a <b>SINGLE</b> plant. The values for safety stock are 1 & 2 and this will be applied to all the materials. Pls let me know anybody how to make changes thru' this..

Hi,
Find the appropriate field from the long list and select it.
then use the selection options to ONLY pick up the materials that are relevant to the plant (add the plant as a selection option using the icon on the selection screen).
Then enter the new value in the special field at the top and click on the icon that replaces the contents of all fields. Then execute (only in foreground if you are doing this when the system is not being used, i.e. overnight or at weekends) or change in background when it gives you the option.
But you say the values are 1 & 2 ? What do you mean by that? The safety stock is one field.

Creation of New T-Code for mass maintenance of SA

SAP currently does not have a facility to mass-maintain schedule agreements. The business alone has over 16,000 schedule agreement lines. Manual maintenance is very time consuming.
There are some key items of data that can require amendent for a particular vendor. The new program would permit the maintenance of:
Planned delivery time                EKPO-PLIFZ
GR proc Time                           EKPO-WEBAZ
Firm Zone                                EKPO-ETFZ1
Trade off Zone                          EKPO-ETFZ2
Binding Grp                             EKPO-KZSTU
Conf Control Key                     EKPO-BSTAE
Vendor Material number           EKPO-IDNLF
Stock type                              EKPO-INSMK
Creation profile                        EKPO-ABUEB
approach from my functional consultant:
basically i want to update the fileds on a screen of   tcode : memasspo (mass maintenance of purchase orders )
if i select pur ord item in the initial screen,
it allows me to enter pur doc values and item values
after that
if i select fields symbol button on left side
and i can select fields which i have to be updated in the right side in the Popup screen
if i choose fields they will come along with pur doc and item in the screen
My question is :
pur doc and item values with additional fields data is available in the flat file that should be updated
pl let me know the approach to upload whether i go for eigther BDC or BAPI
Note :
i can update for newly added fields in the user defined SAP Screen itself for porders
but if i enter the purchasing doc as scheduling agreement no it wont allow you to update
i need to update for Scheduling agreements ?

Hi Hariprasad,
If restricting certain fields using field selection option is not suitable for you, you can go ahead with the option Screen Variend

[Maintenance View] Mass maintenance of Z-Table

Hi,
I was wondering what were the options when dealing with mass maintenance of Z-table entries.
SM30 is OK for maintenance view but you cannot process more than a given number of lines (34 entries or so) per page.
Ideally, it should be possible to enter data from Excel file of even clipboard.
SE16N is great for this since it allows pasting of clipboard data but it does not work with maintenance views (it switches to the SM30 dynpro).
Besides, if I create a database view, it is not possible to save entries because it joins several table together (even if I only need additional fields for display only).
I tried the FM 'SE16_INTERFACE' but it dumps with an CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SEMANTICS error (SAPSQL_NO_DBTAB_OR_VIEW). (you can only query table or database view but no maintenance view)
Thanks in advance for your ideas/advice.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Hi,
Developing a generic tool won't take much time probably 6 hours at an experience level of 2+ years!!!
Once you develop you can use it for ever.
What all you need to do is create a field-symbol of type standard table. Get the table name and the file from the selection screen.
Create a dynamic internal table with reference to the table name entered in the selection screen. Upload the data and update the database.
Limitations in the design:
1. File should be in correct format and with the correct data. (Specific validations can't be done)
2. Table maintenance events can't be tackled.
eg: On entering the material number, Material description should automatically come.
Creating BDC for SM30 is ok. But this works only at a table level. We may not be able to make it generic as the screen field names changes based on table name.
So think and choose the right approach!!!
All the best:)
Thanks,
Vinod.

Mass Maintenance will recognize any customer record in workflow process

Hi gurus,
Please help me on the Workflow process, how to handle below workflow scenario, is there any logic be hand this.
please see in BOLD workflow issue.
1.2     As-Is Business Process
Currently Data Maintenance teams use standard SAP transaction XD07 to change Customer Account Groups. The standard transaction XD07 allows only one Customer Account Group to be changed at a time. The process is to be manually repeated for every customer. After the Account Group is changes in the request client (X07(10)), an RFC call is made to the BOR client (X07(20)) and then to the transaction client (X08(10)) to change the Customer Account Group as the SAP ALE process does not support Account Group Changesu2026
1.3     To-Be Business Process
From time to time, bulk customer data updates will be needed. This can be the result of business situations that cause multiple updates to be performed for given customer fields such as Customer Account Group field. A new program must be developed to let the user mass update the Customer Account Group field (KNA1-KTOKD). The Program should be accessed on demand using a new T.Code (YMDM_ACCTGRP_CHG).
Business users will submit a spreadsheet in the appropriate upload format to CDM along with written approval from the Food Service data owner to execute the upload in P07. CDM will execute the upload, record all documentation for the audit change log and notify the submitter when complete
1.4     To-Be Business Process Flow Diagram
1.5     Enhancement Functionality
The following are the requirements:
u2022     This tool will enable a user to perform bulk update to the customer account group field.
u2022     The utility should let the user upload a u201CTab delimitedu201D file to mass update the Account Group field.
u2022     The Load File will have 3 columns, Customer Number (KNA1-KUNNR), Current Account Group (KNA1-KTOKD) and New Account Group (KNA1-KTOKD).
u2022     The Program must utilize the process behind the standard SAP transaction XD07 to change customer Account Groups in X07(10).
u2022     The standard customer ALE (DEBMAS) process does not support Customer Account Group changes, so the mass change program must use the RFC functionality to change he Account Groups in the BOR (X07(20)) and Transaction system (X08(10)).
u2022     Workflows for all updates performed using this T.Code are automatically approved. No manual approval steps will be needed after data load.
u2022     Mass Maintenance will recognize any customer record that has an open workflow. If a customer record is already in the request queue, it is u201Coff limitsu201D for any bulk update. That update request to that particular customer record must be rejected.
u2022     Provide the option to run the process in validation mode and update mode.
u2022     Report all hard and soft legacy field errors on a validation report. All u201Chardu201D legacy field validations should be passed before allowing update mode to run.
u2022     The upload process will produce an error log for all records not loaded into the system.

I have a need to enable this program which was delivered in one of the enhancement packs. We have thousands of maintenance plans that need to be modified.
A couple of questions:
1) how do I activate as little as possible to allow me to use this program
2) With this enhancement activated, am I going to be putting myself on a new support pack line.

hi,
I just know go to transaction SFW5 to check whether all components required for the operation of system are activated (switched on). But I do not know exactly which component is affected for this function.
