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,

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

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

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.

Error on Material Creation.. XK01

Hi Gurus... Am new to SAP Logistics & MM
When i create Material master (XK01).. I get the following Error msg..
E:0:001 Material shud start with zsan
Pls help to solve this Error

Dear All,
For Material creation there are 2 option one is internal & exteranl No. range defined hope you syste mis comfigured with "ZSAN"
External No. Range for Creation of Material So use the "ZSAN0001" for Creation of material.
Else
You can define the Material Master Number Range in transaction MMNR.
Click the button Groups to Maintain the Material Type Grouping.
Below are those material type that have no number range groups.
To assign a group, in the not assigned group, select the Material Type you want to group.
Then tick the Group you want to assign and click the menu path Edit -> Assign Element Group.
From the same screen, if you want a new number range intervals, click Group -> Insert Group.
If you decided to used an external number range, goto transaction OMS2 and
tick the field External no. assignment w/o check.

Blocking material creation

I have ea requirement wherein I must block the material creation (transaction mm01) daily when my program runs.
How do I achieve this?
Thanks.

You could use BDC to achieve this. The quicker solution is to change the corresponding entry in table TSTC: set field CINFO to "20" to lock the transaction.

John.
