Material class assignment

Hi,
Is it possible to assign different material classes of same type to the material?
ex: class type 001
class A and class B .
Material 10000
is it possible to assign the class A and class B to the material 10000

Thanks vasanth.
Purpose of my question is in my program i am getting the material class with BAPI from material. Till now i am assuming that only one class will be there.
it is so till now. just got the idea what if the user inputs two material classes to the same material.
Thinking of how i can negotiate that.

Material Class 001 - Characteristics not comming at the time of GR

Hello,
I am trying to use material class 001 in material.
I have created Characteristics and assigned to Class (001) and have attached this class to Material.
But when I do Goods Receipt of PO, I do not see any tab with classifications.
I have also tried activating batch (as some say that I have to activate batch to get the characteristics at the time of GR) but this does not help.
Please let me know, how can I get the characteristics to get populated at the time of GR.
Regards

Prabjhot,
I have a group of materials "Bicycles". Within this group, there are 5 material numbers, BIKE1, BIKE2, BIKE3, BIKE4, BIKE5. Each one of these is sold as a separate item to the customers.
Now, my customer service group is having a hard time entering orders. They can never remember which one contains which combinations of colors and Derailleurs.
I create a class 001 BICYCLES and assign two characteristics, "COLOR" "DERAILLEUR". Possible color values are "RED", "BLUE", "SILVER". Possible DERAILLEUR values are "10SPEED" and "12SPEED". I then assign the materials to the class, and enter values for each of the 5 material numbers.
Now, when Customer service wants to find out which MATERIAL to enter into their sales orders, they can look up all the MATERIAL numbers that have specific MATERIAL based characteristics: Blue/10 speed; Red/12 speed, etc etc.
Later on, my Quality manager approaches me. For one material BIKE1, which is a Blue/10speed, I have 3 different factories where I build them. The resultant bikes are virtually identical from each factory. However, the manufacturing methods in each factory are different. My Quality manager wants to determine accurately the source of each manufactured bicycle, so that he can track warranty liability and issue recalls if necessary.
I create a BATCH class type 022 and assign 2 characteristics "MAN_PLANT" and "YEAR" I create several batches: "PARIS2010", "ROME2010", "LONDON2010": In the batches I assign the appropriate values: MAN_PLANT "PARIS", in another "ROME", and another "LONDON"; in all three I enter the value for year as "2010", I activate Batch management.
Now when I complete my Production orders, the three plants each receive their production into stock, but now they must enter a batch. The batches they enter upon receipt identify the manufacturing plant and year of manufacture. In my central warehouse, I now have BIKE1 stocked and sold under 3 batches: PARIS, ROME, LONDON. My quality manager is pleased.
I am rewarded with more work.
Best Regards,

Material Class-001

Hi
Anyone please let me know when we will be using the class type 001(Material class) and what is the use of material class.

Hi,
If u wants to describe the materials with its different characteristics for that u have to define characteristics, class and assign its to material master.
Also u can use the values of characteristics for different reports
ex If u want to define any gas or liquid u have to assign characteristics with class

Transfer of Material Class characteristics into Batch

Hello,
Is there a way to transfer the material specific class characteristics ( maintained in material class 001) into Batch, while creating a new batch?
For e.g. for Material A, i have Material Class Characteristic = COLOR, with a value RED.
So if i create a new Batch for Material A, the COLOR characteristic in Batch should get defaulted to RED, instead of manually entering.
Pl let us know, if this is possible.
Regards,
Mangesh
P.S: I know there is Default check at the characteristic value level, but that doesn't help, as each material will have different value.

Dear,
You can use function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_014 SAP enhancement SAPLV1ZN when assigning characteristic values to batches with EXTENDED_CLASSIFYING parameter. You use this to classify user-defined characteristics in the background when creating a new batch using the central function module VB_CREATE_BATCH during activated batch classification.
Refer IMG>Batch Mngmt>Characteristics Value Assignment>...using function module
Please try and come back.

Single material class in MM02

Hi,
I need some assistance on this issue. We have multiple classes of the material class type 001 assigned to a material master. When I enter the MM02/MM03 tcodes, I see all the classes listed one below the other. So far so good. However when I look at the characteristics section below, I see all the characteristics in all the material classes listed. If I click on the blue magnifying lens I still cannot see the class specific characteristics. What I want is if I select a class in teh list of classes and click the blue magnifying icon, I should see only the characteristics assigned to that class in the characteristics section and not the entire list. Any ideas? I tried the value assignment option and the user settings but could not find anything
Thanks
GS

Hello G S,
Hope to understand your query. I believe you have "with inherited characteristic" checked in the user settings. Please uncheck the flag as per the attachments. With this flag unset characteristics will be displayed only for the class you selected.
Let me know If I misunderstood your query.
Thanks Amber

Material Class???

Hi all,
I need help with the following steps. I have to assign a configuration profile to a material. I know the steps, I just have to find the correct Bapi's.
1.Create Material (MM01)
2.Create Chatacteristics (CT04)
3.Create Class(CL01)
4.Assign CHARACTERISTICS TO CLASS(CL02)
5.Create configuration profile: material to class assignment (CU41)
These are the bapi's that I know of so far but I don't know if they are correct.
1.BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
2.BAPI_CHARACT_CREATE
3.BAPI_CLASS_CREATE
4.??????, I think this step is handled in BAPI_CLASS_CREATE
5.??????, I have no idea if there is a BAPI
Can someone help me with steps 4 and 5 with a bapi or a FM?
thanks,

Hi,
do you know the transaction BAPI? There are listed all available BAPI's.
There you will find the BAPI/FM "BAPI_OBJCL_CREATE_KEY". I've never worked with this FM but it sounds good for your problem. Attention!!! No Data will be changed without using the BAPI BapiService.TransactionCommit. It's explained in the documentation of this BAPI.
To create a Material i would use the FM "MATERIAL_MAINTAIN_DARK" without dialog.
For step 5 i've no soulition yet. May be the bapi "BAPI_UI_CREATE" is the solution.

ALE Material Class Hierarchy

Hi,
We have created Material Classes / chararacters and have ALEd to the respective systems.
We have defined Hierachies using CL22N.
But when we ALE Classes using BD92, the Hierachy data or the links between classes does not get sent.
Therefore in the receiving system we do not find the inherited charatcers.
Can any if of you convey me if there is any transaction to ALE the Class Hierarchy?
Thanks,
Midhun.

Hello,
This function enables you to set up your class hierarchy as a class network by assigning a class to several superior classes.
Procedure:
To maintain one or more superior classes for a class within a hierarchy, proceed as follows:
1.Choose in the Classification menu Assignment , Assign class to superior classes.
2.Enter the name and class type of the class you want to include in the hierarchy. Use the pushbutton Last processed classes to choose on of the last ten classes you have worked. These can also be classes that were processed with different applications.
If the class you enter is part of a class hierarchy, you can choose Environment Class hierarchy to see the other classes in the hierarchy in tree form.
Confirm your entries.
3.Enter one or more superior classes.
When you assign classes to a class, you can restrict the allowed values of the characteristics. This means that only values from the restricted allowed values are allowed when you classify objects in these classes.
4.If you want to assign values to characteristics and at the same time set restrictions for the values you must first position the cursor on a class. Double-click on the class or select Values.
You see a list of the characteristics of all the classes to which an object is assigned. This list is based on the user settings you made in Extras User settings, tab page Value assignment.
5.Save your assignment.
Hope the information is useful
Regards

How to restrict Material Class in Sales Contract Doc

Hi,
I need to restrict Material Class in Sales order based on Item catagory, Material group4 and Sales contract Document type.
If the above 3 fields having a particular value then the system should restrict all the other classes of that material and display only a particular class and it's related characteristics.
If any one come across such a senario then pklease let me know.

Hi,
You have to make few configuration settings before you actually restrict at the object level. The solution is clearly discussed in the below thread:

Follow-up material being assigned to another follow-up material

Hi,
I am trying to assign a follow-up material A to material B but get the following message:
Material B is already a follow-up material in plant X.
This is not a warning or an error message but I still can't save the changes.
I have tried to search for any other material that has material B assigned as a follow-up material but can't find anything.
How can I get around this?
Thanks

Dear Deeksha,
If my understanding is correct then I guess already material B itself is acting/assigned as a followup material for some other
material(say For example for material C in the plant X) and in return you are trying to assign a material A as a followup material
for B.
Check in table MARC for the plant X and for field NFMAT = B,identify for which material this acts as a followup material in plant
X.
Check and revert

The material account assignment group is missing in sales Order creation

Hi Gurus,
When creating the sales order the material account assignment group is not copied in the sales order line item.
For eg: when the sales order has 5 line item for one of the line item the material account assignment group is not getting copied.
I checked the material master - A/C assignment group was maintained.
I checked the revenue account determination every entry is maintained with respect to GL account.
But even though while creating the sales order the line item does not have account assignment group. Due to this i could not able to release the billing doc to accounting.
Please if any one can help in this regard to solve why the account assignment group is not copying in the sales order line item while creating.
Thanks in advance.
Jack

Hi,
May be the system is not updating the data. Try creating a new sales order to check. Also check the division of the product for which the acct *** grp is not showing.
Check whether the acct assgt group which you have maintained in the matl master and that in the acct determination (VKOA) is the same.
Reward points if solution helps.

CLFMAS: Change only 1 caracteristic in a non-local material class

I try to modify a material's classification with CLFMAS.
I would like to change only one characteristic. The others ones must keep their old values.
CLFMAS erases everything, and I just have the new value of the caracteric I would change.
I use a non-local class.
Thanks in advance for your help.

We have the same issue just come up last night. A test on one class last week yielded the 2 record change history model (old value deleted, new value created). Applying the same change to a different material class, we get only the single record model - no help or oss notes seem to mention that there are two different change history models in SAP.
CHECK THIS -- check your single record change log in table CDPOS ... you may have values in both value_old and value_new fields there. The 2 record model stores value_old on the "deleted" record and value_new field value on the "created" record.
That still does not answer why there are two models and how one controls which model is implemented for change history on a class/characteristic ... but it sheds just a little more light on it.

Reservation is Generating without material code assignment

Dear All
User are doing Complete Confirmation the PB Plan generated order from IW37n for Vehicles.
1 >System is creating reservation no with MSG no CO470 whereas no material is assigned to task list or to order.
2> Also in the same plan if i want to moved one maintenance item from the maintained plan which is already been schedule ,if i removed from plan whther system will stil consider the Item or not ?
Kindly suggest
Regards !
Ajay

Hi Ajay Singh
I need to check about your Query 1. Regarding query 2 : if you remove maintenance items from the PM plan which is already scheduled, System will not consider it from next cycle which is not yet converted in to order. But you cannot expect that system should also remove it from the already generated orders which is not possible. I hope this clears your second query, I will be back for your first query.
