Material Classification view at plant level
My company has multiple plants set up with materials and I would like to know on the business side if there is a way to tell if the Classification view tab is missing for plant & material.
I've tried using SE16 MARA, table view, but it show materials at the client level with Classification view but not set up at the plant level. Tks,
Dear Friend
Which Class type are you using in the classification view? What batch classification you can use is dependent on the batch level you have chosen.
E.g. if your batch level is plant, then you have 022 batch class, While for material and client level you have Class Type 023. If you are going by the above e.g then you should be looking in to tables like MCHA, MCHB..........
You might be interested in following tables if you are using Classification.
KLAH Class Header Data
KLAT Classes: long texts
KSML Characteristics of a Class
AUSP Characteristic values
KSSK Allocation Table: Object to Class
CABN Characteristic
CAWN Characteristic values

Blocking material for sale at plant level
Hi,
Can you please help me whether we can block the material for sale at plant level.
We can block the material in sales organization view --> DChain-spec. status as BLOCKED FOR SALE , but it wil block sales of the material for all the plants in the sales organization.
Please help whether we can go ahead at plant level.the posting block for goods issues can already be reached with a material status, so no phyiscal inventory document necessary.
What you could try is to control the usage by a userexit.
E.g. you define a sales status AND a material status, just as table entry without any customizing in detail.
and in the userexit you check for the combination of sales status and material status, and if your material has this combination then send a error message to the user. -
Activating auto PO Check Box in the purchasing view for plant level.
Hi Techies,
Right now i have an issue related to auto PO check box in the purchasing view for the plant level. There are three plants A,B,C.. For the plants A and B the automatic PO check box is visible and the user is able to provide input values. But when it comes to plant C the auto PO field is not available and hence the user is unable to provide input for auto PO.
Is there any configuration to be done to activate the auto PO check box in the purchasing view in the material master with respect to plant C?
If so could you please guide me with the settings?
Thanking you in advance.
Regards,
Gopalakrishnan.S
Edited by: krishu100 on Jul 13, 2011 2:25 AMHi Techies thanks for you all info.
Now today i just tried to created a new HALB Material in the plant C which i had issues yesterday. But when i created today a new material the Auto PO feild is available for entry. THen i tried to go to the material which i created yesterday for editing it. But i was unable to do it.
I checked the transactions which most of you referred(Very Useful). I found that all the plant s had the same screen selction setting and set as Opt Entry. The field screen referrence for MM01, MM02 Transaction s are also set as opt entry. The screen reference for HALB is also set as Opt entry. Still i m not able to find the field auto PO in the purchasing field.
So does it mean that a material once created without auto PO enabled or visible can never be updated after that? But i think its not the case and we should be able to edit it(correct me if im wrong).
Really having my fingers crossed to find a solution for this issue.

MM01 material copy from at plant levele
Hi,
I have a simple but very important question to ask about MM01 material "copy from" function.
When you copy a material at an organisational level other than general data (at plant level for exemple), SAP copies some data and left some others blank
For exemple, in "Work Scheduling" material views, it copies "Prod.Sched.Profile" data but not "Unit of issue" nor "Prod.stor.loc." data.
What make the difference between these data ? Why all isn't copied ?
Thanks for help
regards
Morganstorage locations are plant specific customizing.
SAP cannot assume that the second plant would use the same keys like the first plant.
If SAP would copy the storage location, then it would result in an error if it is not customized for the target plant - better not to copy it. -
QM-Assign inspection plan to a variant of material (classification view)
Hello,
Inspection plans are commonly assigned to materials.
In my case, I would like to manage, in <b>Classification view</b> (MM01), a new characteristics named "Variant" that could have 2 or more values, depending on which variant I order to my supplier.
<b>But is it possible to assign an inspection plan at this sub-level ?</b> In QP01 the only possibility I see is assigning a material to the inspection plan. Can I customize something, or does it exist a trip to manager another level of assignment ?
Thanks a lot for your help !
EmilieHi Emilie,
Now I understood your requirement. But I would like to know the exact purpose of this requirement so that I can try to give you correct solution.
I will consider your example:
Material : 123
Classification: Inspection
Characteristics 1: Variant 1 for Inspection 1
Characteristics 2: Variant 2 for Inspection 2
Selection of inspection plan takes place during the creation of inspection lot. So now you have to link this material/classifcation/inspection plan combination at the time of inspection lot creation. I doubt whether this can be done using one user exit.
The user exits are
EXIT_SAPLCZCL_001
EXIT_SAPLCZDI_001
EXIT_SAPLCZDI_002
Please let me know whether it helps.

No Material classification view in material master.
Hello all,
I have created LSMW for material master upload . Material is getting created through this, but 'classification view' is not getting created.
But i can see the material- class assignment in CL20N.
This problem is for specific material group.
Is there any relation between material group & classification view?
Plz advice how to resolve this?.
Regards,
Satpal MujawarHi,
I found more information:
Batch Input for CL20N is no longer supported.
But you can continue to use batch input with the old transaction cl20.
Please have a look at note 943559, point 2. It would be even better to
use BAPI's instead. Please consult the notes 213120 and 373824 about the
possibilities you've got.
You can find information about the relevant Bapi's in transaction BAPI via:
- Cross-Application Components
- Classification
- ObjectClassification

Material master fields on plant level
Hi all,
is it possible that i can restrict fields on plant level, like one material type one field i want mand. in one plant and optional in other plant.
regards,
qsm saphi,
Yes, it posible:
go to SPRO
Logistics - General-> Material Master->Field Selection->Define Plant-Specific Field Selection and Plant-Specific Screen Selection (OMSA)
see the settings for the plant in field reference - you need a diferent reference to the diferent plants (group together similar plants - all the ones that you want the field to be mandetory should have the same field reference)
now go to OMS9 or OMSR
and set the field as mandetory for the field reference you have made in OMSA
good luck

Client level, plant level and material level batch
Hi,
Can any body tell me wat is the actual meaning of
!) Client level batch,
2) plant level batch,
3) material level batch
with exa. please.
Thanks
Nilesh IthapeHi,
Below is the extract from the IMG Documentstion..
====================================================================
Batch numbers can be unique at the following levels:
at plant level
at material level
at client level for a material
If you choose plant level, the batch number is unique in conjunction with the respective material and the plant. If you choose material level, the batch number is unique together with the material. At client level, the batch number is unique in the whole client.
To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to batch numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
=========================================================
Hope this helps..

About the effect for batch level conversion from material to plant level
Dears,
Now we use batch management at material level in our system, now we want to change to batch level from material level to plant level, what effects or risks it will bring during the process of conversion?
Thanks a lot
ZhongkaiHi
check the following SAP help link it is very helpful:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/es/d2/1d4b6e5733d1118b3f0060b03ca329/content.htm
at the link you can find the following
Specify batch level and activate status management
In this IMG activity, you specify the following:
the level at which batch numbers are unique
whether batch status management is active in the client
the plants in which batch status management is active
the initial status of new batches
Batch level
Batch numbers can be unique at the following levels:
at plant level
at material level
at client level for a material
If you choose plant level, the batch number is unique in conjunction with the respective material and the plant. If you choose material level, the batch number is unique together with the material. At client level, the batch number is unique in the whole client.
To change the batch level, you have to start a conversion program. This program first checks whether conversion is possible and outputs an error log containing all batch numbers that occur more than once at the new level. Now you need to manually transfer these batch records to numbers within Inventory Management using a transfer posting 'material to material'.
If you change the level from plant level to a higher level, it is possible that batches with the same batch numbers in different plants are actually identical. In this case, all you have to do is remove stocks (including previous period stocks) so that all batches with the same batch numbers, except one, can be reorganized.
When you convert from plant level to material level, the material is then to be handled in batches in all plants in which it is defined.
Standard settings
In the standard R/3 System, batches are unique at plant level.
Activities
To change the batch level, proceed as follows:
1. Choose the level at which you want your batches to be unique.
2. Save the new settings and choose Back.
3. Select function Batch level -> Conversion.
4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Further notes
Note that you cannot reset conversion from plant level to a higher level in the standard.
If you create a client by copying an existing client, initially, there are no settings in the target client at batch level. The system makes the settings in the target client only when you have carried out an activity (maintaining master data or posting a goods movement, for example).
SETTINGS BEFORE/AFTER CLIENT COPY:
Source client Target client
Client level Material level
Material level Material level
Plant level Plant level
Batch status management
Batch status management is an additional function provided by the standard R/3 System.
Standard settings
Batch status management is not active in the standard R/3 system.
Activities
To activate batch status management, proceed as follows:
1. Choose Batch status management active.
2. Save the new setting and choose Back.
3. Choose Batch status management -> conversion.
4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Further notes
Batch status management is linked to the batch level. At material and at plant level, the status management settings are valid within the client, that is for all plants. However, if you have defined batches to be unique at plant level, you have to select the plants in which status management is to be active using function Plants with status management.
If you activate status management, all existing batches are assigned status 'unrestricted'. If you deactivate status management, the systems transfers all restricted batches to unrestricted stock within conversion. Restricted stock only exists if status management is active.
If you create a client by copying an existing client, status management is automatically activated if batches exist in the target client, independent of the settings in the source client. If no batches exist in the target client, it is not activated. In this case, you have to activate or deactivate status management manually, if required.
Plants with batch status management
Activities
To select the plants in which status management is to be active, proceed as follows:
1. Set characteristic Batch status management for those plants in which batch status management is to be active.
2. Save your settings and choose function Back.
3. Choose function Batch status management -> conversion
4. If necessary, carry out the conversion in test mode first.
Initial status of a new batch
Using this function, you can specify for each material type which initial status new batches are to be assigned. However, if you use a quality management system, this specifies the status of the batches.
Hope it will help

CLASSIFICATION VIEW / MATERIAL MASTER
HI EXPERTS,
I am facing a problem regarding classification view of a material master.
In my organisation for a perticular material type I have to maintain CLASSIFICATION view. But by mistake I forgot to maintain classification view of some material.
There are more than 1000 material , so it is not possible to check each material individually and if classification view is not maintained that I have to maintain it.
Kindly reply me with some standrad method, so that I will check for which material classification view is maintained or not. According to that I will proceed.
Regards.
raghu.MM50 is the way.
If you didn't add the classification for a material then you have to extend the material with the classification view. If you enter Maintenance Status C and your material type, it will lsit all materials that DO NOT have a classification view created.
If however, you created the classification view, but didn't enter one of classification values, this will not help. You could try the tools in Classification System --> Environment -->Reporting.

What are the two views that are automatically created when we create a material.
Dear,
Two View,
1) Plant Stock : - In which system display view Plant stock in current period and also in previous period and also general view.
You can see stock detail with this view at plant level.
2) Stor. Loc Stock: - In this view you can see stock detail at storage location level.
This two view is automatic generated after creation of material master
