Material master authorization

Hi
We gave a scenario where we need to have restrictions on access to material code. Eg while creating PR the user will be able to enter material starting with a specific item code. (the material code will be external no. generation) .
Kindly advise how to go about doing it.
Regards
Nandini

Hi,
if you want authorization at Material type (number range) in that case you have to check your basis team is there any authorization object is there or not  if yes then you can put the authorization check at material code level.

  • Updation of Material Master Views

    Dear All,
    I am facing a design problem in creation of Material Master.
    A certain user group creates X,Y,Z views in MM01 , MM02 but the other views data which would be of relevance to other users needs to be updated based on certain conditions like Material Type etc.
    Eg : PLM user making Basic Data view .
           FI views and Sales View to be created automatically for other users.
    The issue is this <b>updation of data in other views</b> which is of two categories :
    i) if material type = 'abc'.
          MRP profile = 'fgh'.
    ii) if material type = literature.
       then plants = '1111', '2222' , '3333' etc....
    Regarding i):-
    This data can being updated in a user exit , eg '<b>MGA00001</b>'  called in MM01.
    But it <b>doesnot allow to change any other structure other than WMARA</b> where as we need to update data for WMARC, WMBEW, WMVKE etc.
    Regarding ii) :-
    How can I create material on <b>many plants while the material is under creation in MM01</b> ?
    How can i) and ii) be cracked ?
    Pls give solutions asap .
    Rewards are sure for helpful answers!!

  • Restrict change authorization for MM17 (Material master mass maintenance)

    Hi,
    Apologies if I have posted this in the wrong forum. I want to know if it is possible to use the mass maintenance transaction MM17 (indus. material) to display data only istead of change/create. Is there some setting at the basis object level which can enable this? There are currently a lot of custom abap reports and queries in our system for viewing material master data, these can all be replaced by MM17. Basically we want to use MM17 as a reporting tool to display data only. Is a solution possible? Help is appreciated, thanks.
    Regards

    Have you tried the MM Information System node in the SAP Easy Access menu? There are a bunch of standard reports with navigation options there, for the user who has the correct authorization to display only.
    Alternately, you may want to take a look into transaction MASS and use the B_MASSMAIN object, depending on your requirements - but test it well.
    Cheers,
    Julius

  • Material Master Views Authorization

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to restrict some views of the material master for some users. I've read that is possible to limit these views by the maintenance status of the authorizations but itit doesn't work for me. can you help me?
    I am using "SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY" role in order to restrict all the views except Warehouse Managment. So, I put the maintenance status of the WM view to display and nothing else with the others. Is it wrong?
    Is there any other way to do what I want?
    Thank you very much for your help.

    Hi All,
    I have made a copy of the role SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY and I have changed some setting in order to hide some views of the Material Master for the user. It has worked finally but doing this the user doesn't have authorization for other Transactions Code of WM like LS24, LT*, etc... So, I guess, I have to merge some roles and/or authorizations or I have to create an own role to pack everything I want for this user. Anyway, this is another issue...
    Thank you very much for your help, your answers have been very useful.

  • Authorization object M_MATE_MAR "Material Master - Material Types" in MM01

    Hi,
    We in CPS Energy are implementing VIrsa SOD conflicts on the roles that are in place in current SAP 4.6C version. The authorization object M_MATE_MAR is used by MM01(Creation of Material Master) transaction code & used at mutiple roles. We have restricted this authorization object by Material Type Authorization Group (BEGRU)as WMS1 & given activity a 01, 02 & 03 in a role. The same authorization object is used in Common roles also for displaying that is using transaction code MM03 (Display Material) but the activity & authorization group are ''. This '' is taking precedence over the the authorization object given in the other role.
    Please let us know how to put a control on this authorization object which is used widely by large number of users.
    Maintained Material Master: Material Types                              T-D119010802
    Activity                       01, 02, 03                                             ACTVT
    Authorization group          WMS1                                              BEGRU
    Any help is really appreciated
    Thanks
    Sree

    Hi Sree, your role with MM03 in it should not have * for actvt if it is only a display role.
    As it is a display role actvt 03 would be more suitable.  That way you could have display for all auth groups, but create and change/MM01&2 would be restricted to WMS1 (and any other materials with a blank auth group)

  • Authorization material type in material master

    Hi expert,
    I want to know how to restrict users to create/change Material Master following
    the material type in the role.
    In role authorization Object: M_MATE_MAR Material Master: Material Types.
    I maintain material type like ROH , HALB , HAWA in authorization Group.
    But it is not work. Please help me.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Pl. check your role to users for the material master again for allowed material types. It should restrict the users only for the selected views only. This should be done for all the roles assigned to users in relation to materail master. (i.e. Create, Display & CHange). If you restrict the material type in create role only & it is not restricted in display role, then user will be able to create all the material types. hence restrict the material types in all roles related to material master (create, change, display) assigned to the user.

  • Authorization Group Material Master

    Hello,
    i am trying to restrict a user from accessing a single material. I am using Authorization Object M_MATE_MAT for this. When I use transaction mm03 to go on the material master I see a field for the Authorization Group but when I go to the same view in mm02 (View: Basic Data 1) I don't see the field Authorization Group or the section Material Authorization Group. Where can I enter the Authorization Group for a Material Master.
    Thanks everyone - I'd really appreciate an answer,
    Johannes
    Edited by: Johannes Hintsch on May 15, 2009 12:17 PM

    HI..
    You will have to make the field to display in OMS9.
    Double click on MM02 - - >then for number 36 make the field as optional entry or required entry as desired.
    Right now it must be showing in Hide.
    After changing you will be able to see in MM02 and make the entry there.
    Hope it helps,

  • Authorization for Material Master

    Hi all
    I need to set up authorization at a field level in the Material Master. Can I do it and if yes how do I proceed. What are the authorization objects for these?
    thanks a lot

    Hi,
    Authorisations can be set up against certain fields in material master.
    I suggest that you read the documentation against the following IMG path:
    Logistics-General -> Material Master -> Tools -> Maintain Authorizations and Authorization PRofiles.

  • Authorization Material Master data

    Hello,
    vould you tell me if it's possible to restrict changing Material master data according to material type ?
    Thank's

    Hi,
    Use authorization object M_MATE_MAR - Material type authorization for material master records
    This object determines whether a user is authorized to maintain the material master record for a specific material type.
    Defined fields

    ACTVT       01                      User may create data.
                02                      User may change data.
                03                      User may display data.
                06                      User may flag data for deletion.
    BEGRU                               Here you must specify the
                                        authorization groups from table
                                        T134 for which the materials
                                        concerned may be processed.

  • Error while creatting the Material Master IDOC in ERP 2005

    Hello All,
    I am trying to create scenario from RFID-Enabled Outbound Processing - Conf Guide (SAP AII 4.0).
    I am using Auto ID 4.0 on a NW04s system. The backend is a ERP2005 system.
    The scenario requires that I need to create a material in the backend and send it to the NW04s system using IDOCs.
    After completing the configuration on the backend, I tried sending the Material Master IDOC to Auto ID from the transaction AIDMM. I get a message that IDOC is just being created. But I could not find it in the transaction WE02.
    On debugging I found that the function MARD_GENERIC_READ_MATNR_PLANT resulted in error.
    Thanks for any kind of input.

    Dear,
    Check ABAPer for file settings.
    - CANNOT_SKIP_ATTRIBUTE_RECORD : The attributes could not be read in the EPS parcel. The file cannot be opened for reading, because it may have been deleted in the meantime.
    - CANNOT_DETERMINE_EPS_PARCEL : The EPS parcel is not in the EPS Inbox, because it may have been deleted. You must download the relevant patch again (for example, Hot Package).
    - CANNOT_DETERMINE_DATA_FILES : The name of a data file could not be determined, because a profile parameter was not correctly configured. Check the settings using the report RSPARAM.
    - CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_R_DATA_FILE : An R3trans data file could not be unpacked. A possible error source is that the relevant EPS parcel was not found. The data file could not be opened for writing. An error occurred when transmitting a 20K block from the EPS Inbox to the directory /usr/sap/trans/data (UNIX).
    - CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_D_DATA_FILE : An ADO data file could not be unpacked. The reasons are the same as with the message CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_R_DATA_FILE .
    - CANNOT_CREATE_COFILE : The cofile could not be created from the relevant data file. One possible error source is that <sys>adm does not have write authorization for the directory /usr/sap/trans/cofiles (UNIX).
    Check Note: 70752.

  • Material Master MRP View not be created till Basiv View is created

    Hello All,
    I need an information where i would like to know if an MRP view in a Material master can be restricted without the creation of the Basic View. Basically an MRP view is getting created even though the Basic View of material master is not there and it needs to be stopped.
    Thanks for your inputs.

    Dear Syed ,
    If you want to prevent end users update other material master views , you can apply the concept of SAP note 545380 - FAQ: Authorizations material master , with this you will not more problem with this kind of problem.
    Hope this can help you.
    Please let me know if my thinking about your question is correct.
