Hey
You can control the usage of material by changing the warning message into error message.
take the message number
Goto TCode OMCQ
Change it to Error message. It will not allow you to use the material code any more.
Deletion of one or small number of material master is not advisory.
Still you can do it...

Material master deletion for a particular sales organisation

Hi,
I want to delete all the material master which are created in a particular sales organisation.
Means user should be able to create sales order with that material nor user able to bill the existing sales order of that material.
Regards,
SATYA

Hi,
First open the material master with the Sales organization you want to block. Go to Sales:Sales org. 1 View.
(1) In X_ distribution Chain status field enter the value "12- sales not allowed"
(2)D.Chain-Spec Status field , enter the value "12- sales not allowed".
Enter the Valid from Date against both the above mentioned fields from when you do not want to bill for that particular Material for a sales organization.

Mass Deletion of Material Master

Hi All
Please am trying to delete material master have created. i need a Tcode for mass deletion.
Thank you.

Hi,
In MM06 you can set deletion flag for materials (mara-lvorm). For multiple materials, use T. Codes MM17 or MASS.
---> Select MARA Table
---> Select multiple selection, past all material list and execute.
---> Select DF at client level from field selection tab.
To delete the Material Master records totally, use SARA. If there is posting done, then need to archieve that too.

BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA - Deletion of EAN in Material Master

Dear Everyone,
While using the BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to update material master, I am trying to set the deletion flag to EAN code in the Basic data>>Additonal Data view.
I am setting the deletion flag in the internal table for table bapi_mean. After running the bapi, the EAN code is not deleted.
Please can you tell me how this could be done... and where am I wrong?

Hello,
you could check OSS-Note 406160 .
Even when it's implemented, you could set a break-point into the form "MEAN_UEBERGEBEN" of function-pool "1001UEB" and look, what happens there.

Hi,
1: Check the Status of Article in MMBE for total batches of the article.
2: There should not be any open Purchase Order Use SE16 & Table EKPO Give the Article
     Number for which we have to find the Open Pos; Alternatively ME2M can also be used
3: There should not be any Sales Order. Use SE16 & Table VBAP Give the Article Number for
     Which we have to find the Open Sales Orders

5: There should be no Stock in Transit MB5T
6: There should be no Plant availability Stock MB53
7: There should be no Reservation MB25
8: Previous Period Stock should be zero. Use MM03 with Plant Stock & Storage Loc. View.
     If Stock Exists follow the Procedure:
u2022     If previous period stocks exist, we can make a withdrawal posting as follows. Post the same amount to current period stock (for example, using movement type 561) so that previous period stock and current period stock are identical.
u2022     Make a withdrawal posting in the previous period for the stock together with posting date (for example, using movement type 562).
9: Stock requirement should be zero MD04
10: There should be no open Delivery Use SE16 & Table LIPS
11: There should be no open Warehouse Transfer Request Use SE16 & Table LTBP or LTAP
12: The Batch Corresponding to the plant for the article has to be set for deletion indicator
      Tcode: MSC2N
13: Once the batch deletion indicator is set, Archive all batches for the article.
If any of the above Stock Exists it has to be closed; If Any of the stock exists we cannot uncheck the batch management indicator.
After closing all the open items; the related business documents viz Purchase Orders, Delivery, etc have to be archived.

Usage of deleted material master code

Hello,
I have one query related to material masters (MM01, MM02).
A material is marked for deletion using T-code MM06 some time back.
Now due to some reason this material is required to manufacture a batch.
So can u please tell me -
How to unblock this material?
Is there any impact occurs in any module link with material master (i.e. QM, PPMC, FI or CO or else)
How can i cross verify its impacts?
I am highly obliged if you clear my doubts. So that i can proceed for batch manufacturing without any hassle.
Regards,
Snehal Roy

Hi there
In MM06 you can revoke it and use it,,
Just check the source list validity and regenerate if required..also the Info record validity period and price vlaue,, if you want to change the proce use the MR21 to change the price for the material ,,
Hope it helps

Deleting QM View in the material master

Hi
Is their any way we can delete the QM view in the material master , once it is created
Thanks
JJ

Hi
Deleting a QM view is not possible
what You can do ...is Deactivate all Inspection Types that you have assigned by QA08
or do mass changes using MM17(MARA & MARC) and remove all fields.
It is as good as removing QM view.
Note:
u can set deletion flag at plant level or client level. ONce u do that u can delete that particular material from that plant using sara transaction . But note that all view at that plant level vl be get deleted
so better to make it blank

Deleting of future price in accouning 1 View from material master.

Hi,
During month end process of CKMLCP, we have done the marking activity. so that the system updated the future price for all materails under specified plants. this is valid from 31.03.2008. by this time the system was not released the price automatically even, the valuation area (plant) is activated with automatic release. when doing of production confirmations for the current period, the system is throwing error as "future price and standard price exists". when we deleting the future price manually through MM02 transaction the systm is allowing to do production confirmation.
Kindly suggest me any transaction code which deletes the future price in accounting 1 view of material master, which is updated because of marking done through CKMLCP.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply,
We tried to delete the price through CKR1 transaction. after giving of parameters of material and plant blant screen is coming.
i think CKR1 is useful for deleting of future price updated through costing run i.e., CK40N marking.
But in this case when we scrutinise, this is updated through CKMLCP transaction.
after performing of "post closing" activity through CKMLCP,
i think SAP has provided another Tab i.e., Mark Material Prices. by this time the system will mark future price at current periodic cost. and at the same time there is a provision to give date either manual date or select the radio button of beginning of following period in parameters tab.there is no provision for giving of valid date upto.
may be this is useful to update the standared cost estimate with current actual.
I am also not sure why user have given data as 31.03.2008. usually they are not suppose to do this marking, but, by mistake they have performed.
Kindly correct me if any mistake and suggest any other way which will delete the future price in accounting 1 view of material master.

How to delete MRP view data after create in Material master data ?

Hi all ,
After user create a useless MRP view data in Material master data , how to remove it ?

Hi
Material master once created cannot be deleted.Only thing u can do is to mark it for deletion
Go to Logistics > Materials management > Material master > Material > Flag for deletion > Immediately.
Give the necessary data that is needed for the view you want to delete.
Press and flag the view you want to delete.
Now the view is flagged for deletion. This means that it's use is limited and it will be cleaned up or really deleted at the next clean up of the system.

How to delet material master

hi everybody:
The user has created several material master by mistake, and some of them have transaction datas. Now the user has created correct masters.
The problem is the wrong master master are always displayed when running report or material selection. Is there any transaction to delete the master, or is any transaction to "hide" such material and make them not displayed during report or material selection?
I know archive is one option, but too complex. Is there any other solution?
Andy
Edited by: Andy on May 9, 2008 9:16 AM

Hi Andy,
Alternative1:
Use transaction MM70 - Material Master->Other->Reorganization->Material->Choose.
     Build variant with selection range of material master records to be selected for deletion and maintain
     run parameters.
     Execute.
     Use transaction MM71 - Material Master-> other-> Reorganizationn-->Material->Reorganization
     Build a second variant
     Maintain run parameters and execute.
     It is also important to remove the records manually from info record, POs, PRs, reservation etc
     for successful deletion of the material.
