Hello DaYaker ReddY SaDaLa,
How r u ?
You have to Install the Business Content Objects needed for the Data Transfer.
you have to add the Attributes, then activate the InfoObject 0MATERIAL. After this you have to decide how to load data using Flexible or Direct Update to the Data Targets.
Then Map the Data Source fields to the Info Objects and activate.
Then proceed with the Insert Characteristic Data Target if Flexible update and create update Rules.
Load data with InfoPackage.
Get back if any issues... [email protected]

Extend material master data from one plant to another plant

hi,
how can i extend material master data from one plant to another plant.
is there any sap standard transaction for this ie. bdc/t-code.
thanks in advance.......
rahul

Hi
If you want to extend the material form one plant to another then below are the possible options.
1) MM01 - Use the material in the reference and fill in copy from and to then press enter to complete the extention.This is recommended only if you want to extend very less records.
2) Use LSMW and record MM01 thru BDC recording available in LSMW and make the template in excel and convert it to .txt tab delimited format to upload more records.LSMW is the perfect tool and is used extensively in all the projects.
3) Get the help from ABAPer to create upload program and include the BDC recording.
There is no standard T code available in SAP becoz data mainatenance in the material master will be based on the industry.
Hope it will help.
Thanks/Karthik

Santosh,
Use BAPI as we already have pre-defined BAPI for material upload given by SAP.

Also check this BAPI in MM01 uploading for the complete code I have written.

Downloading Material Master data from ECC to CRM

Hello friends, I am working in CRM 5.0., I am finding difficulty in downloading Material master created in ECC to a Product Master in CRM. Can you please tell me how to use Customizations to download the material master to product master.

Hi Rghunandan,
To carry out the product replication from ECC to CRM,you need to carry out the foll steps.
First download the customizing objects using R3AS
DNL_CUST_PROD0 u2013 Material number conversions
DNL_CUST_PROD1 u2013 Product : Categories
DNL_CUST_PROD3 u2013 Material : R/3 sales status
DNL_CUST_SPROD u2013 Sales product item
DNL_PLANT - Plant
To download products foll the steps below
1.Defining Product ID Settings -COMCPRFORMAT
Cross-Application Components  SAP Products  Basic Settings  Define Output Format and Storage Form of Product Ids
This activity describes how to synchronize the product Ids in the CRM system and the R/3 system.
The material master length is R/3 is defined in transaction code OMSL and is set to 18. (also check note no. 545824)
2.Make sure that CRM item categories and R/3 item categories are the same.
In CRM, item categories and item category groups are seen via
Customer Relationship Management  Transactions  Basic Settings
3.Selecting specific objects for replication : R3AC1
Use adapter object MATERIAL
Use filter settings tab and specify the material or a range of products you want to download .Use atble name MARA,field MATNR use an approriate operator and mention theproduct you want to downlaod.
4.Replicate Materials : R3AS
mention the adaptor object Material and execute

How long does it take to create material master data from PO lines?

Hi ,
I was wondering if I could use an expert's opinion on the time and effort (FTEs) that goes into cleaning 50,000 PO lines that contain item descriptions to create a clean item master and a (basic) catalog.
The idea is:
To remove duplicates, invalid, non recurring/ redudant items
To create categories and sub categories (Standard - no coding)
Is there any defined tool and process-steps, not only for SAP but in general? Do consultants do this manually (with Excel spreadsheets) or some other means.
Any references will be very useful.
Thanks and regards.

could be any time from a day to some months, just depends how big the mess is and how detailed the wishlist is and how well you want become.
Most consultants will do this probably with Excel as they are used to it.
Mixed tools can speed the process up if the people are used to those tools, or slow it down if they are not and need training before they can start.
Is it really only the description which will finally be different for some thousand materials that finally need to be created?
I would start with TAANA transaction, this would give me already an aggregated view on the items, as it can be used to group and count the items by description (and other parameters such as year) so it is down in seconds to the number of variations. Means the duplicates are eliminated.
Then you identify the one-time buys from previous years and remove them from the list (the output of TAANA can be worked on with Excel inplace)
Now starts the hard work to remove the garbage. This is usually a manual work, looking for typos which made this different from the same item with the correct description. And even identifying duplicates that are totally different written "Elbow - stainless steel" and "Stainless steel elbow" and far apart from each other in your list.
For this I use Excel with the Fuzzy Lookup Add-in
Watch some videos on youtube to see how it works, it's great.
And finally you load the materials with LSMW. If you are experienced with SAP material masters then you know which fields this materials need, they all could be defined as constants and your input file could only have the description, if that is really the only difference, which I actually don't believe. There might be differences in material group, in the unit of measure and usually in the purchasing group too (probably even more fields). And exact those differences in the other fields have to be considered in the cleanup too.
So, just technically eliminating duplicates and the worst garbage and all the one-time buys and finally load uniformed NLAG materials with just different descriptions could be done in a day. But the experience tells me that this can quickly evolve to a bigger long term project with harmonizing the way how the description will be written, harmonizing units and material groups.

SAP Business Connector with Java (material master data)

Hey,
I have a question about the SAP BC. What are the steps I have to do, to use the BC with a Java program?
My task is to create a program which downloads material master datas from SAP.
I just installed the BC, and hope, that I did it correctly
Many thanks in advance!!
Kind regards,
Alex
German Version:
Hey,
wie ich oben schon geschrieben habe, habe ich ein paar Fragen zum SAP BC. Ich habe ein Hochschul-Projekt und muss hierfür Materialstammdaten aus SAP herunterladen und mit einem Java Programm ausgeben lassen.
Kann mir vielleicht jemand weiterhelfen, wie die Schritte hierfür aussehen?! Wie verbinde ich den BC mit meinem SAP System? und wie bekomme ich anschließen die Daten mit einem Java Programm ausgelesen?
Ich habe bereits den BC installiert und konnte mich meines Wissens auch richtig anmelden;-)
Ich hoffe, dass mir jemand weiterhelfen kann und bedanke mich schon im Voraus für eventuelle Antworten!!!
Viele Grüße
Alex

Hi,
I work with SAP BC some time ago... I remember that you configure the connection in SM59 / SICF and the server open a port to "listen" (connect external).
So, your external program can execute functions inside SAP and exchange data.
See some links:

Thanks in advance!

Hello Daniel,
I am facing a problem while sendig Material master IDOC from ERP2004 to Auto ID 2.1.
I understand that you have done this sucessfully. Could you please help me with my problem. The case description is given below.
I am using Auto ID 2.1 with SP1 on NW04.
Integration server is XI 3.0 with corresponding XI Content for Auto ID.
The backend is ERP2004.
I am using the config guide for Auto ID 2.1.
After completing the configuration, I tried sending the Material Master IDOC to Auto ID.
IDOC gets created successfully. XI says the message transfer is successfully.
In the log of Auto ID. I am getting the following error while importing the Material Master product:
Product ID AUTOIDAII_MAT has an invalid format
Internal error in /AIN/DM_PROD_COMMIT
Message no. COM_PRODUCT897
The description says that it may be a program error.
Or the program expects some variable to be filled which has not occured.
Any idea what could be the error. Or where should I try looking for to get more detail info.
Do some one knows what should be the patch levels for the different components in all three servers for Auto ID 2.1 SP1.
Thanks for any kind of input.

Material master data connect to custom data

Hi Experts,
I have transfer material master data from ECC to GTS,I also have created tariff code in GTS system,
but I just know to connect them by manual, Can anybode tell me ,How to connect them by mass ?

Hi Billy,
If you want to classify materials in mass, you can use the classification worklist (there are each for compliance/customs tariff/commodity codes) or upload the material classification from a file.
There you can select several in an ALV and classify them in once..
Hope this helps a bit,
Cheers,

MATERIAL MASTER DATA ARCHIVING

Dear Experts,
I have archive material master data from the data base.
As a prerequisite for material master data archive,
Purchase orders for the materials are archived already.
Invoices documents are archived already
Material documents are archived already
No material stocks exists for these materials.
Please tell me deletion flag is to be set for the material at client level ?
Table MARA
Field LVORM

you can delete and archive a material master at any level.
If you want archive the full material master, then you have to set the deletion indicator in MM06 on top level. if you just want archvie a storage location view, then you set your deletion indicator at this level only, as well in MM06.
In general MM06 is not necessary, as the SARA MM_MATNR write program allows to archive materials without having a deletion flag.

Inital material master data load error

Hi experts,
We are on ecc 6.0 and gts 7.1.
While loading the initial material master data from R/3 to GTS,Transaction (/SAPSLL/MATMAS_DIRR3),I am getting the error ( for 1 material)-
Of 1 selected material(s), 0 were processed successfully
Message no. /SAPSLL/PLUGINR3112
When I try to load the required list of material, the error is same.
The RFC data distribution model is working for vendors and customers properly.
We want to use only compliance mngt and embargo functionality to block orders.
Can you give me some guidence?

Dear Milmuk,
it is hard to tell, why it is not working. There could be different reasons.
Please check if you have entered the correct data.
It could be that the relevant tables for transfer are not filled.
Please execute the following:
- BD53
- select message type (/SAPSLL/MATMAS_SLL)and edit it
- select a segment
- save
- deselect segment again
- activate
- set in trx BD60 the FM to the correct value
(/SAPSLL/MATMAS_DISTRIBUTE_R3)
You can than check with the programm: '/SAPSLL/PLUGIN_CHECK_R3' if
all 4 required tables (TBD24, TBD62, TBDA2, TBDME) are filled, or not.
If that's all fine I suggest you open a CSS ticket as then a more detailed analysis is necessary.

Transferring MATERIAL MASTER DATA USING lsmw

I am using LSMW to transfer material master data from text file using direct input program RMDATIND. The problem is that the field WRKST in screen is of 48 characters while the batch data structure BMMH1 of field WRKST contains 14 characters. How can we transfer the full 48 characters in text file to THE FIELD BMMH1 IN DIRECT INPUT PROGRAM. Can we write any translation or routines . If yes, how is it possible. I can do the same using BDC but our client is already using the LSMW , only the new field WRKST for material has to be inserted. It is picking only 14 characters.

Sales order does not extract plant information from material master data

Hi experts,
I have created a sales order. However, the plant in the shipping tab can only be manually entered.
I have made the check:
the customer material master data does not have the plant info.
the customer master data does not have it either.
It is defined in the material master data: sales:general/plant
But the sales order did not extract this information. Why does this happen?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Fan

Hello Friend,
As right stated by you,
The Plant will be copied from the master data to the sales order, if not it should be manually entered
The Sequence System will search for the Plant is as follow..
1. Customer material infor record, If it was not maintained then it will search in
2. Customer master, if the entre was not maintained in the SHIPPING TAB
3. Finally it will search in the Material master in the Sales organisation data 1 in the field DELVERING PLANT field.
So please search whether the entry was maintained in that field at the sales:sales organisation data 1.
This might be the issue.
Please revert if you want further details

Material master data complete in bi - infoset or multiprovider

Hi all.
for one of the reporting requirement of my client i need to extract the complete material master data in BI - from MARA, MARC, MARD, MSTLB tabls.
which i have done and stored in the infoobjects - 0MATERIAL, 0MAT_ST_LOC, 0MAT_PLANT, 0MAT_SALES.
now user want to see all the information against each material in 1 single line the multiple lines will only come in when there is plant.
which approach i shoul go for this scenario.
infoset or multiprovider.
i created infoset by using inner join but then i see only common materials, left outer join is giving me problems.like -
Invalid or missing ON condition for left outer join (0MAT_PLANT)
Invalid or missing ON condition for left outer join (0MAT_ST_LOC)
Invalid ON condition for left outer join (0MATERIAL)
kindly give your suggesstions on this.
thanks
dipika

Hello,
There are restrictions regarding left outer join in infoset:
If a left outer join is used, the following restriction applies to the right table (right operand):
·        Only join conditions with exactly one other table can be defined and
·        This table in turn cannot be a right table (right operand) of a left outer join.
Tables connected with left outer joins always form the end of a chain of tables. In this way, as many tables as you want can be linked in an InfoSet with a left outer join to a core of tables that are connected using inner joins.
The restrictions on the definition of left outer joins are due to the technical limitations of databases. These restrictions do not apply to inner joins.
