Hi,
Use direct input method using LSMW. The details are as:
For material master data:
Object: 0020
Method: 0000
Program: RMDATIND
For material classification
Object: 0130
Method: 0002
Program: RCCLBI03

This may be little tough for 10000 sales orders.
1. You have to remove the output record for the irrelevant output record using tcode VV12 for the relevant document type. So now for the document type, the old output wont be triggered.
2. Now, create output records for hte correct output type in VV11 tcode(for the output type BA03) for the document type. Now this output will be triggered for all the document types you are creating from now onwards.
3. To trigger the output type BA03, in all the old orders, you just have to open these sales orders in change mode (VA02), and just save it. When u open it the output type BA03 will be automatically triggered as the master data is maintained in VV11. But because just opening all the 10000 sales orders in VA02 one by one be a mechanical task, you have to think of some tool for this.
May be a CATT procedure can do the trick. Else, you can just create a small program, where you can upload these sales orders and the program will just open these orders in change mode and just saves it (without making any changes). Then the output will be retriggered.
Here again, if you are printing the output directly, it is advisable to trigger the output in batch mode(Date/Time field is 1 in VV11), and then you can again trigger the printing again using the program RSNAST00 after office hours for these 10k orders.
I hope I answered ur query.
Pls lemme know if you need some more info. (You can reward me too...)

Mass Creation of Material Group Purchase info record

Dear All
Currently we are developing a custom transaction in SAP to mass upload Purchase Info records from a flat file (excel)
We are using the standard Function Module ME_POST_INFORECORD to create the PIR s
We use two different number ranges for Material and Material Group PIR s. This is set up already in SPRO>MM>PIR>Define Number Ranges
Purchasing info record for stock material (Group - IL ) have a number range X
Purchasing info record for material group (non-stock mat.)(Grpup -IN) have number range Y
So when we create a Material PIR manually in SAP it picks X number range and Y number range for Material Group PIR
But when we create Material Groups PIR via the new custom transaction it creates PIR s with Number range X.
Upon checking understood that the standard FM ME_POST_INFORECORD is always defaulting the Number Range Group as IL internally . Seems like a harcoding done by SAP
Wanted to know
- Is there any another FM we should consider while creating Material Group PIR s. Any other Function module provided by SAP for that ?
- Or what can be other way to resolve this ?
Please let me know your views on this.
Regards
Shyam

Hi,
For mass upload from flat files you can consider LSMW with different options e.g. IDoc:
Message Type INFREC
Basic Type INFRECMASS01
or simply via recording of transaction (this should be using exactly the same NR as you have when doing this manually).

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.

Mass reversal of material documents

Hi All,
We have MBST for reversing/cancelling trhe material documents. But how can we reverse/cancel the material documents on a mass basis?
In transaction MASS, there is no object created for mass reversal of material documents.
How can we create an object for mass reversal of material documents?
Is there any other Tcode or program for mass reversal of material documents?
Thanks and regards,
Ramachandra DN

Dear Ramachandra,
We Create
<b>LSMW</b> for <b>T.Code MBST</b>
I hope it is better way to use Mass reversal of Material Documents
Otherwise depend upon the size of the data we can move to other uploading programmees.
For better clarification you can approch ur ABAPers to resolve the issue.
With regards,

MM17 (Mass upload)

I want to upload the values to one of the fields in material master. I have 70,000 materials. Is this possible through MM17 (Mass upload) ?

in MM17.
you select your materials for a change.
Then you enter the new value in the fields above and click the distribute button, this way all your selected materials will get this value as new value for the chosen field.
alternative to a fix value in the field above your records you can click the formula button, this way you can create a small formula to calculate the new field value. E.g. you can add 1 to your maximum stock level, means if you had 10 as maximum stock level then you will get 11, but if you had 1 then you will get 2...
but this formula button allows you as well to add some ABAP coding.
this way I can select on any other table and can then determine the new value based on your own conditions.
e.g. you lookup EORD table (source list) and if you find an entry there, then you write 111 in field X , if you dont find a source list, then you write 222 in field X.

CEWB is the only standard option available for you to make mass changes

Mass Upload - ALE/IDOC or BAPI approch

Hi Guys,
I have to upload material master and we have options to do it by either ALE/IDOC or BAPI approach. The quantity of materials is quite huge. I tried to find some comparison about different approaches so as to know when to use what but not able to get exact information. Kindly suggest which one is usually preferred for mass upload and if possible provide some links for more references.
Thanks,
Brijesh Soni

I have never seen such recomendations or benchmarks
SAP has a homepage for benchmarks: http://www.sap.com/solutions/benchmark/index.epx
the source is the same, then result is the same. all steps in LSMW are the same. you have to map the same fields in any method.
BAPI may have some more structures than IDOC or batch input. so just minutes more to assign the source structure to the target structure. .
it is a historical growth or development. It started with batch input to process SAP transactions en mass
then the IDOCs came to exchange data between 2 SAP systems.
and then we got the BAPIs to execute SAP transactions even from a non-sap system.
the result is in all three methods a created material master.
LSMW is a toolbox which gives you any of the available import methods.
there are other aspects to be considered in a migration.
What if you have errors? do you correct them yourself, or do you want the business people to fix them.
if you want business people to fix wrong data, then a batch import method may be the first option, as you can process it in foreground. It is too much complicated for a Non-IT-person to edit values in IDOCs. (even the performance may be better than a batch input)

Mass upload of BP into CRM

Hello!
I peform mass upload of BPs into CRM. I use FM BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA to create BP itself and BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD to save BP addresses and call these FMs in the same turn for each BP.
So, if I do that for 1-2 BPs, it works perfectly. All BP are saved in CRM with there addresses on COMMIT. As soon as the number of uploaded BP increases(between two commits), for example, up to 100, there is an error happens: E831(AM) in ADDR_MEMORY_SAVE.
As well as I understood, it happens because of address saving peformed before BP saving on commit. I tried first to save BPs only (with commit) and then their addresses, and it worked on mass upload without any error.
So, is there any idea about how to upload each BP with his address simultaneously without any error by mass upload?
Thank you.

You can upload millions of records using these function modules.Infact I am doing the same.
Make sure that the data structures,tables which are passed to the Function modules are cleared for each time and FM's should be in the below mentioned order.
BAPI_BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD
BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.
Thanks,
Thirumala.
