Material creation query

Hi ,
I want to create a single material which will have different packaging size.
lets say ; Product 'X' ,
which comes in size of 100ml , 250ml , 500ml and 1 Litre , and it will be sold in quantity say 1 , 2 .
so when i create a sales order for this material , I will be able to enter the quantity and any one of the above sizes .
Let me know how can i achieve this by creating a single material.
Regards
Yashpal Gupta

you create a material with base unit milliliter, and maintain all packaging sizes as alternative units with its conversion ratio to ml unit.
For this you would need to customize each size as an own unit of measure in CUNI.
any of these units can then be used as unit in a sales order.
But this is not really a good approach, as it may only solve your issue how you enter a sales order.
you never know how much you have of which size in your warehouse.
you could use above approach if you pack yourself, manage your material just at bulk level and have endless availability of any of the packaging types.
but to know how much of which size you have in your warehouse you need to have different material masters per size, or you manage a material in batches and each batch number corresponds to a packaging size.

Material creation process in SRM-MDM

Dear All,
I am new to SRM. Please correct me about material creation procedure in SRM if I am wrong:
Normally in classic/extended classic scenario, material first created in MM and then it replicated to SRM. Base on configuration setting for number range, system either create the product ID same as material number number in SRM when it replicated into SRM. In final steps, the product information will upload into MDM either XI integration or manually via excel upload.
My question:
+ Is it possible to automatic create product without XI via T.Code - MDMGX in MDM.
+ If the replicated product ID of SRM is different then MM material number, which number we should consider for creating product
MDM.
Thanks in advance.
BR
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
Answer1) You can only replicate Product Groups, Currencies and Unit of Measures through t-code MDMGX. XI/PI is required for Contract and Product Catalogs.
Answer 2) If the replicated product ID of SRM is different then MM material number, you should enter MM material number and in External Web Service Configuration for that internal catalog, uncheck "Do not check Product" indicator so that SRM will not check the Product ID and when item goes to backend system, it will have correct MM material number.
Thanks,

Material Creation Using BDCs.

Hi all,
I have developed a program for Material Creation using BDC.
Material is Being created and that is working well and good.Here i have a Requirement to update the Newly creted material in Ztable.So when i use call transaction mathod,i have written code for updation under the line CALL TRANSACTION.where in iam getting newly creatde material from MARA table,and so it is working perfectly fine..
But our requirement should be sessions method,so when i use sessions method and exeute the program..we face the problem of updation.
the piece of code for updation is updating previously created material.
Literally speaking only the sessions are created ,when the program is executed,material is not created when program is run.Material is only created when the sessions are processed using SM35,
So how should i do here,where should be the updation code written and where will we get the newly created material in sessions method..
Pls Help me in solving this problem

hai priyanaka it might be due to configuration problem
bcos manulay also ur gettign this , so just consult ur MM consultant for soem setting
regards
afzal

Material Creation Date and Time

Hi,
Is there any place which stores the material creation date and time. We have checked table MARA, but that only has the creation date of the material, but does not give the material creation time. We have checked table CDHDR, but that only seems to have the material change date and time.
From where can we retrieve the material creation date and time.
Thanks and Regards,
John

Actually, CDHDR and CDPOS will have the value. The CDHDR record will be marked as a 'U" record but look at the corresponding CDPOS record for MARA and it will be marked as an 'I' record.

Error in pipeline material creation

hi,
we want to create one pipeline material as per our new requirement for showing gas consumption.during material creation with mat type PIPE, it's showing an error:The field Profit Center is defined as a required field; it does not contain
an entry.
Procedure
If the field is the material group or unit of weight, and the field is not ready for input, check whether the material is locked. If it is locked, you cannot extend the Purchasing view or the Sales view. If either of these views needs to be extended, the material must first be unlocked. This can be done only by a user with special authorization.
thanx,
sheetal

Hi
In your client if Profit center accounting(PCA) is activated ,then you need to maintain the Profit center for the material.
Option 1: goto OMS2, got details of pipleine material & select the Costing View of the material.
Now goto MM01 in creation of pipeline material & maintain the profit center in Cotsing 1 View.
Deactivating the field from mandatory to optional will not serve your purpose as PCA will get affected.
Thanks & Regards

Spatial vs. materialized views/query rewrite

Dear all,
we are trying to use Spatial (Locator) functionality together with performance optimization using materialized views and query rewrite, and it does not seem to work. Does anybody has experience with this?
The problem in more detail:
* There is a spatial attribut (vom Typ GEOMETRY) in our table;
* we define a materialized view on that table;
* we run a query that could be better answered using the materialized view with query rewrite;
*the optimizer does not choose the plan using the materialized view, query rewrite does not take place;
This happenes, even if neither the materialized view, nor the query contains the spatial attribut.
The explanation given by the procedure DBMS_MVIEW.Explain_Rewrite is:
"QSM-01064 query has a fixed table or view Cause: Query
rewrite is not allowed if query references any fixed tables or views"
We are using Oracle 9R2, Enterprise Edition, with locator. Nevertheless, it would also be interesting, if there is any improvement in 10g?
A more complicated task, using materialized views to optimize spatial operations (e.g., sdo_relate) would also be very interesting, as spatial joins are very expensive operations.
Thanks in advance for any comments, ideas!
Cheers,
Gergely Lukacs

Hi Dan,
thanks for your rapid response!
A simple example is:
alter session set query_rewrite_integrity=trusted;
alter session set query_rewrite_enabled=true;
set serveroutput on;
/* Creating testtable */
CREATE TABLE TESTTABLE (
KEY1 NUMBER (4) NOT NULL,
KEY2 NUMBER (8) NOT NULL,
KEY3 NUMBER (14) NOT NULL,
NAME VARCHAR2 (255),
X NUMBER (9,2),
Y NUMBER (9,2),
ATTR1 VARCHAR2 (2),
ATTR2 VARCHAR2 (30),
ATTR3 VARCHAR2 (80),
ATTR4 NUMBER (7),
ATTR5 NUMBER (4),
ATTR6 NUMBER (5),
ATTR7 VARCHAR2 (40),
ATTR8 VARCHAR2 (40),
CONSTRAINT TESTTABLE_PK
PRIMARY KEY ( KEY1, KEY2, KEY3 ));
/* Creating materialized view */
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW TESTTABLE_MV
REFRESH COMPLETE

AS SELECT DISTINCT ATTR7, ATTR8
FROM TESTTABLE;
/* Creating statistics, just to make sure */
execute dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(ownname=> 'TESTSCHEMA', tabname=> 'TESTTABLE', cascade=>TRUE);
execute dbms_stats.gather_table_stats(ownname=> 'TESTSCHEMA', tabname=> 'TESTTABLE_MV', cascade=>TRUE);
/* Explain rewrite procedure */
DECLARE
Rewrite_Array SYS.RewriteArrayType := SYS.RewriteArrayType();
querytxt VARCHAR2(1500) :=
'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (

i NUMBER;
BEGIN
DBMS_MVIEW.Explain_Rewrite(querytxt, 'TESTTABLE_MV', Rewrite_Array);
FOR i IN 1..Rewrite_Array.count
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(Rewrite_Array(i).message);
END LOOP;
END;
The message you get is:
QSM-01009 materialized view, string, matched query text
Cause: The query was rewritten using a materialized view, because query text matched the materialized view text.
Action: No action required.
i.e. query rewrite works!
/* Adding geometry column to the testtable -- not to the materialized view, and not to the query! */
ALTER TABLE TESTTABLE
ADD GEOMETRYATTR mdsys.sdo_geometry;
/* Explain rewrite procedure */
DECLARE
Rewrite_Array SYS.RewriteArrayType := SYS.RewriteArrayType();
querytxt VARCHAR2(1500) :=
'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (
SELECT DISTINCT
ATTR8 FROM
TESTTABLE
i NUMBER;
BEGIN
DBMS_MVIEW.Explain_Rewrite(querytxt, 'TESTTABLE_MV', Rewrite_Array);
FOR i IN 1..Rewrite_Array.count
LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(Rewrite_Array(i).message);
END LOOP;
END;
The messages you get are:
QSM-01064 query has a fixed table or view
Cause: Query rewrite is not allowed if query references any fixed tables or views.
Action: No action required.
QSM-01019 no suitable materialized view found to rewrite this query
Cause: There doesn't exist any materialized view that can be used to rewrite this query.
Action: Consider creating a new materialized view.
i.e. query rewrite does not work!
If this works, the next issue is to use materialized views for optimizing spatial operations, e.g., a spatial join. I can supply you with an example, if necessary (only makes sense, I think, after the first problem is solved).
Thanks in advance for any ideas, comments!

Materialized view query (Oracle 9i)

I have dropped a materialized view query and trying to create the same with additional columns in the prebuilt table.
Option - 1
when Iam using a query in the materialized view query "select * from schema.table@link, with refresh mode fast option, the database throws an error " no table or view exists"
Option - 2
When Iam using a query in the materialized view query "select * from schema.table@link, with refresh mode option either complete or force, it gets created.
I need to create the above materialized view query in the fast mode option, Please help.

Hi,
Does a table named profit_mvw already exist?
The following example illustrates the two steps required to register a user-defined table. First, the table is created, then the materialized view is defined using exactly the same name as the table. This materialized view sum_sales_tab is eligible for use in query rewrite.
CREATE TABLE sum_sales_tab
PCTFREE 0 TABLESPACE demo
STORAGE (INITIAL 16k NEXT 16k PCTINCREASE 0) AS
SELECT s.prod_id, SUM(amount_sold) AS dollar_sales,
SUM(quantity_sold) AS unit_sales
FROM sales s GROUP BY s.prod_id;
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW sum_sales_tab
ON PREBUILT TABLE WITHOUT REDUCED PRECISION
ENABLE QUERY REWRITE AS
SELECT s.prod_id, SUM(amount_sold) AS dollar_sales,
SUM(quantity_sold) AS unit_sales
FROM sales s GROUP BY s.prod_id;

EDI FOR MATERIAL CREATION AND CHANGE

Hello all,
I have a requirement that when a material is created it whole detial about that material is saved at a given location as idoc.
ie EDI configration.
How know to configure EDI process order. How can we do for material creation.

Since we are not using any message control, we don't need to setup the process code in WE41.
The function module has already been assigned to the message type in WE57.
Step1: Create a logical system - BD54.
Step2: Create a distribution model - BD64.
                 Create a model view and add the Sender (SAP ECC) and Receiver (Logical System you created).
                 Then add the message type MATMAS.
Step3: Create a RFC Destination - SM59
Step4: Create a port and assign it to the RFC Destination created above. - WE21.
Step5: Create Partner profiles - WE20
                   Partner type - LS
                  Message type - MATMAS
                  Basic type - MATMAS05
Step6: Trigger the material material through BD10.
Hope it helps.

Are there any standard web dynpro ABAP or JAVA for material creation(mm41)?

Hi SDN,
I have got the requirement to provide Web Dynpro application for material creation (transaction code is MM41) and I would prefer to enhance standard Web Dynpro more than develop from scratch. Now I got only the Web dynpro ABAP component for create sales order called "LO_OIF_MAIN_COMP" and GUI HTML for purchasing order that come with business package Eh4.
Anyone who know please kindly help me.

>but I afraid that I'm not able to find out what is its component name from application
You could just lookup the WD Application in SE80 and then it will show you the component name. From SE80 choose Edit Object from the toolbar. Go to the Web Objects tab in the dialog. Type in the WD Application name and hit enter. You will then see the details of that application.

Key performance indicators (KPI) for material creation

Dear all,
I need to define some Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) to measure the data quality during the material creation (MM01) process. The objective is to get concrete statistics about data quality/accuracy for fields related to material from all views created with MM01 (basic data, classification, unit of measure...).
I would like to get your expertise on how to measure these KPI’s : which transactions, table (...) to use ?
I have already few ideas :
-Table CDHDR
-Transaction MM04
-Create “checkpoints“ into the workflow for material creation (ZWF01)
Do you have any other idea in mind?
I am open for all advices: transaction, table, process, approach…
Thanks in advance for your help !

I have a few ideas, but the accuracy of the master data is based on your system config.
Some things that are helpful in most of the cases:
- If material type is HAWA (trading goods) your procurement indicator should always be External procurement (check those for other material types if you have it uniformed). You can also check purchasing group based on material type if you have it distinct by material type.
- Check if sales views are opened in all org.levels
- Check if storage loc.views are opened for all SLoc
All in all, you need to have a link of two or more data in material master to be able to check it in some way automatically, otherwise you won't be able to determine if the data is correct or not.
E.g. How would you every know if lot size of 120.000 PCS is OK or not for a specific material or if you need to assign a specific purchasing group to your material.
You know the logic behind your material master data best so you can create the best rules to check for your KPI.
Regards.

Can we mandatory Quality Management Field at time of Material Creation

Hi Gurus,
I need to Control Material Creation for every item, if we create materials in some case our user forget for tick the Quality Management .
Is it any T-code or any customisation for control the same.
thanks in advance.
Ajit

Hi Ajit,
In MM01..After entering industry sector and material type,,,when you click on enter...A window for Views will popup...
Now You select your all views including your quality view...Now you check the check box for "view selection only on request"...Now you click on default values....
Now when ever user will create material automatically Quality view will be selected.....and it wont show the views popup again..
Cheers!!!
