Material Master WF help needed

Hi Friends,
I am Developing Material Master notification mail workflow.
I am using BUS1001006.
Here I am confusing how can I send particular material information to particular Dept.
i.e If that Material related to mechanical dept I have to send mail to mechanical dept. If that material related to electrical I have to send Electrical dept. Like this they have 6 departments.
Here I can find these departments with STORAGE LOCATIONS and one Department contains 10 to 15 Storage Locations.
Can anybody suggest me what I have to do.
Thanks & Regards,
Sri Lakshmi

Hi,
No need of creating six task. Create a ztable, from that ztable you can determine org unit (electical mechanical etc) based on storage location.
Once you determine the org unit , you have to create a rule to send workflow to everbody under that org unit. You will have to use RH_STRUC_GET function module in your rule( function module you are using for rule).
So in first task you will fetch org unit from ztable based on the storage location. IN second task you will send the workflow there you will have to assign your rule. In the rule you will be determining the agents.I know it is complicated if you have not done it. I can give you some code examples for rule funciton module.
Thanks,
Shweta

Conditional Mandatory Field in Material Master (Sugg. Needed

Hi ,
I am having a requirement where i need to make a particular field to be mandatory for a certain condition in Material Master.
Say for a Product Hierarchy i want to make Volume Rebate Group mandatory ( Sales Org 2 View).
Please suggest the possible solutions for the same.
Thanks,
Rachita.

Hi,
It is possible to get access to all other fields from within a field exit by using the below code. This is a field exit on GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-grant_type within program SAPLBDT_GMGR but by using the code below you can get data stored in any field within the program. i.e. GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-GRANT_NBR
Field-symbols: <status>.
assign ('(SAPLBDT_GMGR)GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-GRANT_NBR') to <status>.
if SY-SUBRC = 0.
message e003(zr) with <status> .

endif.

IPlate/Master Socket, Help Needed!

(Before i start this is my first post so sorry if i mess something up )
Hi,
I want to install a BT Iplate but i have a Master socket that is not supported. (Pic below)
Is there any chance i can change my master socket to the one below so i can install an iplate?

Hi Eaglealex7,
The newer Openreach BTNTE5 master socket already filters interference from extension sockets. Pre-filtered ADSL/VDSL master sockets also already filters interference from extension sockets.
if you have a look at this link here it will tell you what Master sockets work with the iplate / Accelerator : http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=25075
The accelerator/iplate can sometimes cause more issues in some cases. Have a look at removing the BellWire/Ring wire from terminal 3 of your master socket and extension sockets which does the same thing as the accelerator/iplate but sometimes more effective. Link : bellwire removal

To archive material master, use MM71 or FI_ACCPAYB?

Hi!
We are preparing archiving on material master in our ECC6.0.
We know that FI_ACCPAYB can be used for that purpose.
However, we also are told that we can go t-code MM71 to archive material master as well.
Please inform us whether it is true? And if so, which method is better?
Thanks a lot!
P.S. Actually I notice MM_MATNR is for material master as well. So which one should we
choose among above 3 possibilities?

Hi Linda,
MM_MATNR is the correct object for archiving material master. FI_ACCPAYB is for archiving vendor master.
Please refer to the following link for documentation on archiving material master.
Link:[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/8b/8e963466880c30e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm]
Before archiving material master, you will need to archive all the documents which has reference to the material (such as purchasing documents etc)
While archiving, if any material is not eligible for archiving, you will get an error message in the archive log. Please refer to SAP Note 900537 for the meaning of the error messages.

Create Material Master Data with BAPI

Hi,
I don't know using of BAPI. I want using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA bapi for creating material master data for Basic Data1, Basic Data2, Purchasing and MRP views. Does anybody can help me ?
Thank you
Good night

Hi,
Please refer to the documentation below:
BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA
Short Text
Create and Change Article Master Data
Functionality
You use this method to create new material master data or to change existing material master data. The data on a material can be transferred for each call.
When creating material master data, you must transfer the material number, the material type, and the industry sector to the method. You must also enter a material description and its language.
When changing material master data, you need enter only the material number.
In the header data, you must select at least one view for which data is to be created. Depending on the view selected, you must maintain other required parameters. If you do not enter values for all of the required parameters, the method is ended with an error message.
The corresponding fields in the tables (such as CLIENTDATA) must first be supplied with data by the calling program. An indicator must also be set for each of these fields so that the data is written to the database by the method. This requires the calling program to supply the corresponding field with the indicator in a checkbox table (for example, CLIENTDATAX). Checkbox tables exist for tables that do not contain any language-dependent texts (MAKT, MLTX), International Article Numbers (MEAN), or tax classifications (MLAN). Several data records for a material can be created in these tables.
If a structure contains fields for units of measurement (such as structure CLIENTDATA, field BASE_UOM), language indicators (such as structure MATERIALDESCRIPTION, field LANGU), or country indicators (such as structure TAXCLASSIFICATIONS, field DEPCOUNTRY), there is always a field of the same name with the ending _ISO. This makes it possible to transfer either the internally used SAP code or a standardized ISO code for the units of measurement, language indicators, or country indicators. ISO codes are converted to an SAP code internally for further processing. The ISO code is used only if the SAP code is not transferred. If you use ISO codes, there must be a unique assignment of the ISO code to the SAP code in the following activities in Customizing for Global Parameters:
Check Units of Measurement
Define Countries
If you want to maintain long texts (basic data texts, internal comments, purchase order texts, material memos, or sales texts) or customer-defined fields for a material, some special conditions have to be observed. They are described in the documentation for parameters MATERIALLONGTEXT and EXTENSIONIN.

ECM revision level in material master record

Hi experts
I need to remove the last revision-number (REVLV) in a a material master record.
The ECM is not relesead and we have used tcode MM02.
I have seen that the tcode CCUNDO check the planned changes with tcode MM12.
Thx in advance
Marco

Hello Rahul ,
Please see the following link for more information regarding the Revision Level in Material Master.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/ff/5160a249d811d182b80000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
A revision level identifies a specific change status of a material with reference to a change number. It is used, for example, to identify changes affecting other areas such as Production.
You generally assign a revision level when processing a material BOM (bill of material created with reference to a material master record). However, you can also assign a revision level when processing a material master record.
You can display a revision level assigned to a material by choosing Display revision level on a departmental data screen in a material master record.
I hope this information has been helpful for you.
Best Regards,
Frank

Material Master check before PO creation.

Hi,
I have a requirement where some procured materials need to be checked before the purchase requisition is converted into a PO.
The client wants the system to pop up a message saying "Check Material" when they are creating a PO, so they can back out and check material, make the corrections that they need and then go back in to convert the purchase requisition into PO.
Is this possible in SAP? How? I do not want to flag the material for deletion.
Thanks in advance.

Dear,
At the time of po creation you can see material master with help of double click on material code. But as per my knowladge you can't change material master at the time of purchase order creation.
If i correct please revert back.
Sorry but due to word problem i repeat it.

Sales text on Material master

Hi,
Can sombody let me know the logic to determine the Sales text from material master. I need to poppulated the material desc field on the order with the sales text.
I tried using STXH and FM read_text, but i doesn't help.
Thanks in Advance guys

Hi,
Do you want the Text from the Material master to be copied into the ORDER CONFIRMATION Output ?
If so then you can try with the READ _TEXT function module.
If you want to copy the text maintained in the Material master to Sales order then try VOTXN transaction as suggested above

Batch Management Indicator Required - Material Master

Hello,
My requirement -
Batch management field has to be required for material Type "FERT"
1) I created a new field selection group for the field "batch management" (MARA-XCHPF)
2) Created a new Field Reference group with "Required" entry (OMS9)
3) Assigned the New Field Reference to the material Type in OMS2
The batch management Field is now a mandatory field.
Issue is, when we try to create only the basic Data Views of a FERT material, system does not allow to save the material untill the "Batch Management Indicator" is activated (even if we are not referencing to any plant specific views of the material master.)
We need to have the the Batch management indicator a required entry for FERT, but at the same time should be able to create material master with basic data Field only (we would be extending the plant specific views later)
Is there a alternative method to have this setting to meet the requirements above?
Thanks

Hi
I think you can check if the batch level is defined on material or client now, if yes, you may check if that can be switched to plant level. As far as I knw the basic data is for client so the field is shown on basic data view and ask to input value as you customized.
Alternatively, I think you can use the user exit MGA00001to check the field instead of the field selection, this is called when the material master get saved, then you can write your own source code to chec if the customer filled the field only for certain situations.
Best Regards.
Leon.

Mass change of material master

Hi Experts,
I have a query regarding mass change to be done in material master. I need to update one value in the Material group 4 field in sales org view 2 in MM02 transaction for nearly 300000 materials. One option i find is LSMW and the other i saw is transaction MM17. Please let me know how feasible is this MM17 transaction? Is it possible to upload all the 30000 materials through MM17 transaction in one go and update the field? Will there be any performance issue if MM17 transaction is used?
Please give your suggestion.
Thanks
Dinakar

Hi,
Use MM17,
Goto the Transaction code MM17 and in the table check the MVKE- sales org data for material
and select the Fields tab and choose the field MVKE-MVGR4 and execute
Now enter all the materials in the next screen for which you want to change and execute
In the next screen you can maintain the new values for the old
Please check and revert
thanks,
santosh

Material Master - Urgent

Hi Abapers,
There is an issue needing resolution relating to the functionality for handling UPC codes and GTIN numbers on the material master record.
we need to carry both the UPC code and the GTIN codes on the same record. The UPC code is typically a 12 digit number and the GTIN code is the same number of length 14 by adding two leading zeros.
SAP is checking numbers being entered in the EAN/UPC field on Basic Data 1 screen of the material master record (MARA-EAN11) as absolute number only i.e.., its considering 49000024661 even if we give 00049000024661.
How can we maintaing leading zeros for this field. referred OSS note: 545520 but couldnt find any solution.
Please suggest as what need to be done inorder to maintain leading zeros as well. how can we achieve this?
Does it require abap coding or functional configuring?
Please do the needfull. Points are sure for all usefull answers..
Thanks in advance...
