Material master Maintenance-Mass change
Hello All,
We have around 2200 records (material masters) for which the following changes are required.
1) Where Valuation Class is "AAAA" or "BBBB" or "CCCC"or"DDDD" replace
all Purchasing Value Key with "2"
2) Where Valuation Class is "NLAG" and Purchasing Value Key is "4" or
"3" or "2" then replace Purchasing Value Key with "1"
Kindly suggest which is the best option out of mass maintenance(MM17), LSMW and BDC ???
Thanks
For BDC You have to depend on ABAPer and it will take more time to develop.
As you can easily view the maintained material master and you have already the required changes, you can easily handle this using MM17 also.
You can prepare LSMW also if you have some time in your hand

How can we update insp. type in material master on mass basis.
Hi Team,
We are using LSMW for material master. I was told that we can not update inspection type through LSMW. Is it possible thru LSMW if not, how can we update insp. type in material master on mass basis.
Is there any T-Code to update mass chages for inspection type in material.
Please suggest.
ThanksHi,
You can use TCode -QA08.
This Tcode have facility to Inspection Type activation in single / mass material.
Also useful for deactivation, special setting at Inspection Type level.

Valuation class of material master to be changed
Hello,
My master data team has insereted a wrong valuation class in the material master record. Purchase order has been raised and a GR has been done for the same. SAP gives following steps to change the valuation class:
The valuation class cannot be changed, choose 'Display error'
Message no. M3368
"Diagnosis
You wanted to change the valuation class. However, this is not possible because one or more of the following already exist for the material:
Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
System response
Your change is reset by the system.
Procedure
If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows:
a) Post the stocks of the material to an interim account.
b) Change the valuation class in the material master record.
c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account.
If open purchase orders already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase order items for deletion.
If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to Deleted."
My question is how do I post the stocks to an interim account since stock accounts are configured to post automatically?
If anyone knows how to manage the posting, please let me know.
Thanks
KeyurHi,
Make the movement with a movement type in MIGO that posts to the same account in FI for all Valuation classes.
After changing the Val. CLass then reverse the above movement.

MASTER DATA MASS CHANGE- ASSET
Hello,
I have a problem with substitution....
I need to do the following :
In asset master record, tab allocation I want to make a substitution in the field " group evaluation 1" e.g. from 2 to 7;
With GGB1 I create a substitution in AM -Asset Accounting mass change, callup point 4.
With OA02 I link my substitution to the company code.
With AR01 I create a worklist and I choose the workflow task:"Change asset w/o dialog (bulk change), I select my substitution.
Then AR31 for releasing my worklist.
I get an error message : " Work item 000000386089: Data for type A cannot be written (table SWWWIHEAD) ".
I did a bit of debugging and it seems that the error is triggered because there are no records for the current version plan (PLVAR = 01) in the table HRP1217. I must say that we did not implement HR at all here. We are using version 4.6C.
Please help me to solve this problem !
Thanks.Hi Gabriela,
For this little change it better to create a simple LSMW. This is going faster then with Mass change. (no transports,...).
With SE16 you get the asset numbers and evaluation groeps in EXCEL, there you change the values and import this with LSMW

Notification to defined users for Material master specific field changes
Dear All,
I would like to check the feasibility and way to fulfil the below requirement.
We would like to send notification per mail or Pop UP to the defined users whenever there is a change in particular filed in Material Master (Like MVKE-VMSTA) using MM02 Transaction.
Regards
Krishna PrasadHi,
You can create an ABAP query to use tables CDHDR and CDPOS tables.
Select the object values as Materials and make the date range as dynamic in the selection screen.
You can also select the table name and field names.
Based on the output field display selection you can find the person who has changed the objects.
Run the query in the background and in the output device you can put as mail and you can define the destination mail id.
This way, the changes made can be notified to the responsible user.

Revision level issue in Material Master maintenance
Hi All,
When I try to change the revision level for a certain change number in our production client in the material master I get the following error
Priority of revision level E is too small
I have checked in CC13. But I could not find anything relevant.
There are a number of revision levels available in the dropdown list.If I select some of the last revision levels available in this dropdown list in the material master the system accepts it readily but if I select any of the earlier revision levels in the list the system throws the above error message.
Please can someone tell me what is wrong here.

Material master workflow for changes
Hi Experts
I have a requirement to trigger multiple material workflows for all the plants that have a blocked status in MRP1 when the material gets uploaded into SAP from a third party.
I have used SWEC and created a new 'MaterialChanged' event and put a start condition for the workflow to look at the MRP1/status.
This looks to work fine as long as there is one plant and its MRP1 has blocked status. I am not able to figure out how to handle if there is a multiple plant specific data for a material and all or some of the plants are blocked, this is when multiple workflows are expected to trigger for each plant. Each plant has got different set of approvers.
Because I think the 'trigger' will happen only once for a material irrespective of how many plants the material may have.
If any of you have handled this kind of scenario, appreciate your help.
Thanks
SasiHi,
I think the easiest would be to just echance the business object with an attribute if there are any plants with the blocked status.
then in your workflow, you retrieve how many plants there are with blocked status and then use that data in the other tab for multiline element in a subworkflow.
This will create all the workflows per plant.

Change UOM in Material Master Problem
Hi all expert,
Im trying to change a raw material UOM from KG to Liter in material master, i have deleted all the document related to the raw material, but when i change the UOM, it display message as below:
Material Master Maintenance
The base unit of measure cannot be changed.
The reasons for this are:
Independent requirements are already assigned to the material.
Plant MRP area
JK01
I can't find the independent requirements so can't delete it.
Hope someone can give me advise.
Very thanks for help.You can also see the planned ind. req. for your material from Txn. MD63
If you delete the ind. reqs. no longer appear when you access via trans.
MD62/MD63. However, the records are still in table PBIM with a
deletion flag set on field LOEVR, so, you have to do the planned
independent requirements reorganization as described in note 135807.
I hope this can help you !!! -

How to change the base UoM in the material master?
Hi,
I want to change the base UoM in the material master for a particular material but I can't change irt with MM02 as system says it has open routings for this material.
I have set the deletion flag on the routings but still system shows open routings while changing UoM.
Is there any standard SAP program by which UoM can be changed if open POs, stock etc. are present in the system?
Thanks,
InputHI
It is possible to change the Base unit of measure in the following cases:
1) If there are no stocks of the material in the syatem
2)If there are no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material.
3)If a purchase order or purchase order item is not being created or changed.
Procedure for changing is:
Access the material master record in Change mode.
Overwrite the old base unit of measure with the new one on any departmental data screen.
Save the change.
Thanking you. -
How to upload PO text of material master ?
dear gurus,
how to upload PO text in material master in mass , can i use LSMW or BDC ? if yes then how?
I have done the recording but LSMW is not working for PO text.
Upesh khairnar.Hi!
try using Purchasing Inforecord for this. in here you maintain master data linkage for Material Master and Vendor Master. You will just have to input the Material Number, the Vendor Account, and the Purchasing Org. In here you can maintain the PO text defaulted per Material Number. After the maintenance of Inforecord, the PO text will be reflected on the PO document.
Here is the ff Transaction Code:
- ME11 (Create Inforecord)
- ME12 (Change Inforecord)
- ME13 (Display Inforecord)
Hope this helps, Thank you.
