Material group with classification

Dear Friends
I have a requirement like below: For a Plant ABCD I have 5000 materials in which i maitained 30 material groups. under each material group again i classified into sub material groups. also need an authorisation control based on material group and subgroup to users. how can i control this in material master. Material group only gives single level, but i need a link from main group to sub group. Also have checked Product hierarchy-- Can i able to use Product hierarchy Other than finished product??.. any impact on other Modules?..Kindly let me know your expert advises..

Hi,
Did you maintain the assignments in CL20N,Cl30 N tcodes and also check whether all your codes are existing in CL24N.
also check have you checked overall release checkbox in document type level.
And then Goto check release strategy and look whether it is in green colour or no and then you can check doing PR and try to see the Release strategy tab in header of PR once after you save PR.
Thanks

Material Creation with Classification Data

Hi friends,
I am technical guy,
I need to know how to create material(MM01) with classification data,
if i want fetch data , where i will find that data ( means which tables).
Thanks in Advance,
regards,
Bhaksar

HI Bhaskar,
I will explain you a scenario, where you will be able to understand the relation.
Consider i am manufacturing a two wheeler, which has the material number but with various colours say Red and Blue.
In this case during my SD process, in the sales order, i need to mention the material number also with the colour as Red in the batch field in order to make the process more specific.
In order to cater this need, i need to activate batch managment for that material in the purchasing view and also opening the classification view in the Material master with the batch class as 001 _ Material Class.
Now my work will not get completed without maintaining a batch master for the same. Ie i have to ensure a batchmaster for the material using tcode MSC1N, with batch as colour, Material code, Plant and storage location also if split valuation is activated, we need to mention the valuation type too.
Hope i had thrown some lights over the topic enquired.

RitiG

Send material master with classifications (ALE)

Hi,
I want to send material master data with its classifications. I am using transaction 'BD10' to send materials. I understood that in order to send the classifications I have to check the ckeckbox 'Send material in full' - I did it, and there are no classifications in the IDoc.
please advise,
Thanks, Nir.

You can use change pointer mechanism. This is nothing but, when you change a material SAP Coded in such a way, if that specific field is marked for Change Document then an entry can be entered in TBDCP table.
(you can find this by going to SE11 put the table name MARA, display the table. Specific field like MATNR double click on the data element and go to Further Characteristics tab, there you can see whether it is marked for change document or not)
After this, you have to activate the change pointers for the system using BD50 transaction.
Then in transaction BD52 you have to maintain what fields are relavent for the change pointers in the IDoc. This is the deciding factor. If your IDoc field is mentioned in this table, then whenever a material is created or changed SAP will make an entry into TBDCP table.
Then you have to run BD21 transaction as a batch job for that specific message type to pick up the changes and create idocs. (That means BD21 program will select the data from TBDCP table and creates IDocs)
CHANGE POINTERS IS A BATCH PROCESS.

Automatic change of G/L account with change of material group in PO

Experts,
we're facing an issue with the change of the G/L account in a PO after the material group has been changed. We're creating purchase requisitions from SRM (account assignment type K) with material group and G/L account. Starting to create the PO with ME21N from PR we want to change the material group. After the change we still have the original G/L account.
Valuation class and account assignment is defined correctly and if we create a manual PO the correct values are used. What do we need to change so that the G/L account is directly changed with the change of the material group?
Thanks
Hubert

Hi Hubert,
I am assuming that you are not using the material master and trying to default the G/L account using the material group.
Can you check whether the valuation class assign in this config for the respective material group are same.
Purchasing> Material Master > Entry Aids of items without a material Master.
System should default the G/L account if you maintain different valuation class in material group with the respective G/L define in OBYC.
Secondly, Please check the Account assign categories configuration for the account modification.
Purchasing > Account assignment > Maintain Account assignment Categories.
Cheers!

Material group in material master for different plants

Warm greetings Masters of Material Management
We have one material master for three different plants example 1000, 2000 &3000 with same material group with different valuation class
If we change material group in plant 2000 it is reflected in 1000 & in 3000
My question is this the standard practice that material group changed in one plant will be reflected in other plants
Regards

Go to transacition OMSF to define the material group
Go to transaciotn OMSK to define the valuation class
here you can define or use existing A/C ategory reference than create valuation calss and assign the A/C category to that valution class and next step you can assign the material type
G/L account you can define in FS00 transaciotn and you can assign them to the valution class in OBYC transcation.

Material groups-valuation classes combination

Hello,
I have material groups which are created for services, and they don't have a material code. When I purchase these materials, I enter the cost center as account assignment type, and the service I'm purchasing and the material group I mentioned for these services.
Below, it asks the GL account. In order to avoid entering this GL account every time I purchase services, I want to combine these material groups to the valuation classes. And then those valuation classes and GL accounts will be combined in T030 table.
Where could I do this combination through customizing this matching of valuation classes and the material groups?
Thanks in advance
Irem

Hello forum!
I customized a specific material group with a valuation class (transaction omqw).
During a PO creation, the GL account is displayed by default when i enter a blank material and the material group that i previously customized.
However, if I enter a material code with the specific material group, the field of the GL account is empty.
Do you have any suggestions in order to have a default GL account at PO in the case that the material has a code but it has no valuation class?

GL account against Material group- For service procurement

Hi,
I have created a Service master, and assigned some material group. At entry aids settings in customization i have linked this material group with a Valuation class.
At OBYC settings I linked this valuation class for GBB VBR combination to GL accounts, with an impression that system picks GL account automatically when ever we create PO for this Service.
But this is not happening. Can any one please guide me how to achieve this?
Regards,
Sattuj

Hi Sattuj,
Follow the following steps
1. Create Service Master (maintain valuation Class and Material Group)
2.In OBYC, select WRX and enter chart of account and your GR/IR account in Debit and Credit tabs
3.Create PO: Enter cost object( according to ur requirement ex..Cost Center"K" or sales Order "C" or Project "P") and Item category "D" Service. Do not material here, just enter short text of service, material group and plant. Finally in item details enter activity number or service master you created in service master , quantity and gross price.
4.After entering above , again u will have a pop-up screen, you have to enter your G/L account here( created in as.....exm........Cost element for cost center or G/L for sales Order)
Hope the above solve ur problems.
With regards,

Reg: material group

Dear All,
We have a product item no xxxxxxxx (Misc. without part no.) where we use
this item in sales orders for any "Price Difference" invoiced to CKL or CKL
invoices to it's customers.
Our problem and what we have just realized below is that, the "Material
Group" is defined as "CRDIV" which refers to "CR MISC", misstating our
statistical information in BW.
This item must be financially evaluated within a group called MISC but not
anywhere under any regular product groups like CR or another pump group.
What I'm finally asking is to remove current "Material Group" setup as you
can see at below screen-shot and instead, redefine the Material Group with
an appropriate one which won't ruin CR's sales statistics.
Please give me the valid input on this.
Thanks & Regards

Default VAT 4 % for 1 particular material group

My client wants to default VAT 4 % for 1 particular material group...It means if i create PO for that particular material belonging to that material group it should fetch VAT 4 % default.
How to map it?

Hi,
For the VAT condition type, maintain access sequence with the field material group and then create the tax condtion using FV11 for the said material group with 4% tax rate. All subseqent PO's created with that particular Material Group will automatically calculate VAT with 4% based on the conditon record, Pl check

Changing existing Material Group user defined names to new mat groups

Hi Gurus,
My client is using conventional Material Groups user defined names for ages in their system.
Now they have requested us to workout for switching over to UNSPSC material groups Global Standardization.
While carrying out the exerice, they have asked us to completely clean up the entire system to replace the new material group with old in all Masterdata, transaction data including statistics table in pr, po, stock and in everything
If any one of you have carried out this exercise and if you have any useful documentation, please inform me
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohan

Hi,
If you change the Material groups in Material master the system the system will not update the PR/PO/Stock or others.
You need to change all the documents to update the New Material groups.
For Material master update you can use the LSMW.
You can update the PR/PO also but if the PR/PO is subjected to Release Strategy then you need to derelease then change the material group then update and if it is based on the Material group then while update the new release strategy will apply and you have to change everything.
Think of that if you have huge data then it is very difficult to change all the documents. if the data is Less you can proceed .
Instead of deleting old material groups just add the new material groups and use them in future for all your process.
