Material Origin in Material Master

Hi Guru,
I'd like to ask if there is any configor any way that Material Origin in Costing Tab 1 of Material Master has tick for all materials.
Thanks.
Ellen

Dear Ellen,
In my understanding its not possible to make this field as a check box filled with a tick mark for material
origin while creating the material master.
Still if you need you can get some help from your ABAP consultant is it possible to make it possible
through some enhancements.
For the created one check in MM17 to do a mass change.
You can have a look on T Code OMS9 to create a new selection group by having only the field mateiral
origin - MBEW- HKMAT and try to make the option as required entry.
Check with this and revert back.

Multiple Country of Origin at a Material Master level- Foreign Trade import

Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement to store Multiple Country of origin at a Material Master level . One Part/Material is sourced from different vendors and they are manufactured in different countries . Please note that we are not using Batch Management . Is there any workaround to have this scenario without using standard Batch Management .
Thanks,
Prabuddha

hi,
you can use split valuation for this by using the valuation category field in material master in accounting 1 view.
in this you have to maintain valuation category as "H" = ORIGIN.
For split valution procedure you have to reffer the follow this link.

Price update from Original Material to copied Material Master

I have a scenario,
We are selling Raw materials to outside companies who have shortage of materials on Loan Basis. Once they have materials, they will return the materials within a time period. If they don't have the materials and unable to return within the said time, they will make the payment.
We will follow the normal sales process to sell the item to the customer.
1. creating sales order,
2. Outbound Delivery, and
3. Billing
Return process when receiving the materials from the company.
1. Billing Cancellation
2. PGI Cancellation
Since this is not an actual sale, hence we need to maintain selling price same as the purchase price.
We are planning to extend the Raw Materials to Sales View in the material master. However, we came to know that this will be Violation of Act. Hence we are planning to create a new material by copying the existing Raw Material master but the Material type will be Issue on Loan. This material will have sales view and purchase view.
This material will have a separate Valuation Class. Price control indicator will be V, since the item should be valuated at Purchase Price and the purchase price will keep changing as and when the price changes. This moving average price will be used as selling price.
The same price needs to be updated in the Sales Order automatically from the Loan Material Master when selling the Loan Material.
Now, the problem we are facing is, if we create a new Loan Material by copying Raw Material master with ROH material type, how will the price update in New Loan Material since, we will not purchase the Loan Material. We are purchasing the original item as raw material. Hence, this will not update the Loan Material Price automatically and the price will remain unchanged.
Please suggest a work around?

Hi,
Let me explain to you how I am proceeding.
Step 1:
Create new material master by copying existing Raw Material with Issue on Loan material type. I am assigning a new Valuation Class in this material master. Also, we keep the pricing
Step 2:
Transfer stock from old material to new material in MB1B with movement type 309.
Step 3: Issue of Loan Material to Customer on loan basis.
Creating Sales Order, PGI and Billing
Step 4: Receipt of Item back from Customer
Sales Return process.
Step 5: In case Customer does not return goods, then we will collect payment from them
In the entire process we need to maintain the selling price at purchase price of the original material. Can you suggest any work around, in case this process is not advisable.

Origin Groups in Material master

What exaclty are origin grps and what are their roles from a controlling perspective.
please le tme know

Hi,
Normally the cost element / s are mapped to cost components using Tcode OKTZ.
This means that a cost element normally refers to only one cost component, if origin group is kept blank.
However, we can use origin group as master data, and based on the origin group assigned in the material , we can assign it to different cost component, even for same cost element. Refer origin group column in Tcode OKTZ.
Assign points if useful.

Have you analyzed what is common to the errors?
is it the countries that are used in this cases?
or is it a certain material type?
do you have any succesfull update with a country that is among the failed ?
Have you tried manually to enter this field in MM02 for such a material?
we can only guess, maybe a typo in the country code, maybe county does not have an Iso code, maybe the field in hidden in create transaction for this material type.....

What is Country of origin in Material Master?

What is Country of origin in Material Master?

Impact of change of field Country of origin in material master

HI EXPERTS,
what is the impact of change of field Country of origin in material master(Foreign trade data ) on sales order ,delivery and invoice ?
also will it impact the existing document if we had changed the country of origin in material master?
Appreciate your early response!
Thanks
Manish gupta

hi
this is to inform you that
you are telling about FOREIGN TRADE & CUSTOMS.
it will be having impact on sales delvery and billing as well as sales document is optional and the
delivery document will be stopped with GTS error with LEGAL CONTROL ISSUE.
if you over comes that then you will be caught in billing
in billing document will be stopped with ERROR called FOREIGN TRADE DATA INCOMPLETE.
because it deals with FTC.

View document in material master, Basic data 2 screen?

Hello gurus,
How to view a DIR assigned to material master - basic data 2?
According to help.sap.com:
Additional Function for Material Master Record:
In Customizing for the Material Master, you can define a standard document type by choosing Make Global Settings.
- Done this: assigned document type needed, created a DIR with that type and assigned it to a given material
Documents of this standard document type are displayed in the material master record, in the Basic data 2 view (Extras ® Document data).
- Information of the DIR can be seen in the main screen, no path Extras --> Document data (I know DIRs are shown behind menu path Additional data --> Documents)
You can display the original application files of a document (for example, an engineering/design drawing) directly from the object (for example, material) using a display application (viewer).
PROBLEM starts here: no icon or button to click in order to view the document although the help states so.
Any idea what should be done? Should I install a software of some sort to view? Assign it somehow with SAP? The document type here is doc (MS Word), so nothing special.
Any advice is highly appreciated.
BR,
Pipsa

Hello Sam,
Sorry, I think I described the problem inaccurately.
I could see the document already but for that I must follow the path Additional data --> Document data.
My core question was: Is there a means to allow a user to display the document directly in the screen Basic data 2 since system creates a new subscreen called Design documents assigned anyway?
It seems that the design documents assigned is for information purposes only. It would have been far better with usability to have the display icon in the main data.

How to create a new field in a sub screen in material master. ?

How to create a new field in a sub screen in material master. ?
Kindly help us.
LIke wise tell me how to create a new sub screen as per my desired

Follow the documentation of Logistics - General->Material Master->Configuring the Material Master->Create Program for Customized Subscreens to add the new field in material master.
Create Program for Customized Subscreens
In this IMG activity, you can create a function group of your own by copying function group MGD1 (for industry) or function group MGD2 (for retail). The subscreens are not copied, except for two subscreens which are copied for technical reasons. You can use this copy to create subscreens of your own which you can assign to a data screen in the activity Define Structure of Data Screens for Each Screen Sequence.
Requirements
Be sure to read the program documentation first.
Activities
1. Create a function group of your own by choosing Execute.
2. Enter a name containing up to 25 characters, beginning with the letter Y or Z, and choose Save.
3. Access the Object Navigator.
You do this from the SAP standard menu by choosing Tools -> ABAP Workbench, and then Object Navigator.
4. Display either program SAPLMGD1 (industry) or SAPLMGD2 (retail) as required.
5. Copy the subscreens as required, ensuring that they already contain as many as possible of the field names you want to use in your function group. You do this as follows:
a) Choose Screens, position the cursor on the corresponding subscreen, and choose Copy in the context menu.
b) Enter the program to which you want to copy the subscreen, prefixing it with SAPL, and enter a screen number. Use the screen number of the original subscreen where possible. If the F1 help is specific to a particular subscreen, this ensures that this context-specific help continues to be displayed.
Example
You have called your function group YENTERPRISE, to which you want to copy subscreen SAPLMGD1 2301. Enter SAPLYENTERPRISE as the program to which the subscreen is to be copied, and enter (preferably) 2301 as the screen number.
6. Return to the initial screen of the Object Navigator and display your program. In the example above, you would enter SAPLYENTERPRISE.
7. Choose Update object list.
8. Select the subscreen you have copied and activate it by choosing Activate in the context menu.
Using the Screen Painter, you can remove fields you do not require on the subscreen or include additional fields from other subscreens (see the ABAP Dictionary). For information on the Screen Painter, see the SAP library documentation BC ABAP Workbench Tools.
Points to consider when removing or adding fields
Make sure that a field statement exists for each field on the subscreen since data may not otherwise be transported correctly. You can use subscreen SAPLMGD1 2002 as an example.
For the fields you have added, include any check modules and modules for self-programmed F4 help that are called up for these fields on the original subscreen. You can do this by displaying the flow logic for the original subscreen and searching for such modules. They normally have the same names as the fields themselves. When you find a module, copy the corresponding module call to your subscreen.
If you change the order in which fields are transported that are checked together in the flow logic (such as the safety stock and minimum safety stock), you must deactivate the check module for the first field and activate it for the second. The system would otherwise transport the first field, and carry out the check before the second field is transported.
Any error messages that fields are unknown when activating the subscreen are due to the fields still being included in checks, even though you have removed the fields from the subscreen. Search for the fields in the source code and make the lines in which they appear comment lines. Then reactivate the screen.
9. Assign the subscreen to a data screen as required.
Note on transport
Use the Workbench Organizer to transport the copy you have created.
Proceed

Moving average price in material master

Dear All,
M client is in manufacturing process(variant configuration) having make to order scenario (Non-Valuated).
We are having steel and ring business, For Steel business we are producing in house/subcontracting and For Ring we are sending Raw material/Semi-finished goods to Sub-contractor for which he is charging processing charges. Raw material/SFG(semi-finished goods) provided to subcontractor is SFG for steel business.
We are doing movement type 912 E for sending goods for subcontracting (sales order is attached) and while doing G/R through MIGO processing charges are debited and credit goes to gr/ir account,Upto this point I am ok with costing as visible from sales order analysis(KKAC).
Now In our scenario if out of 6000 rings (as defined in sales order)customer is rejecting 1000 rings we have to detach that sales order through movement type 411 E and bring to our own stock or by movement type 412 E attach to another sales order .Also We are using 413 E movement type for transferring unsold goods to another sales order.
In 411 E and 412 E movement types system takes moving average price (maintained originally ) and by using movement type 413 E no value is transferred only quantity is transferred (because of non-valuated scenario).
Now if system picks original price maintained say at re.1 my costing for detached and attached sales order are incorrect .
Example
Material master(A) accounting view
Map     1
Stock     100               total value     100
Sales order 1(10 tonnes)A (finished product)
Cost     1000
Revenue     800(5 tonnes)
sales order 2
cost b/f          5
Revenue        800(5 tonnes)
Now if 5 tonnes are detached from sales order it picks price from
Master i.e Re.1 so Rs.5 is taken to own stock through mtype 411 E
Or it takes Rs.5 to another sales order 2 as cost of 5 tonnes .
Now my sales order 1 will show loss of Rs.195(995-800) and sales order2 shows profit of Rs.795.
I want to know whether system is behaving correctly or some customization is to be done.
Thanks and Regards
Vijay

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
Keyur

Hi,
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.
Kind regards

Issue: Sending material master using ALE-IDOC.

Hi all,
I am sending the material master data from one server to another.All the fields getting transported along with creator(field ERNAM) of the material.When viewed from WE05 the field is having the same data as original creator of the material in sending system.But when i view data in receiving system for field MARA-ERNAM the field is having the USER NAME giver in RFC-DESTINATION.can anybody guide so that the creator from IDOC is updated in database and not the creator given in RFC
destination.
Thank you.

Hi,
Hope you are using some middleware to transfer the Idoc to other system, check the mapping details from the middleware side whethere the field mapped correclty.

Ignificance of the Industry Sector selection in the Material Master

hi all,
We need information on the significance of the Industry Sector selection in the Material Master field. I understand that it can influence field selection and the screen sequence of the material master record. We are particularly interested to know the influence of the industry sector u201CPharmaceutical Industryu201D .
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Please check follwoing links
[MM01- Industry Sector;
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/ff/515b3149d811d182b80000e829fbfe/content.htm]
1. Define Industry Sectors and Industry-Sector-Specific Field Selection (transaction OMS3) -> assign a field reference to field selection
2. Maintain Field Selection for Data Screens (transaction OMS9) -> define a specific field selection for a field selection group (for example, depending on industry sector (the field reference appears on the lower table control).
Like the material type, the industry sector also has a control function. When you create a material master record, the industry sector determines:
Which screens appear and in which order
Which industry-specific fields appear on each screen
The industry sector you assign to a material cannot subsequently be changed. In Customizing, you can define new industry sectors and maintain the field reference for field selection control according to your enterprise-specific requirements.
Most data in the material master record can be maintained directly by the user. But some information is automatically updated by the system. When you enter goods movements, for example, the system updates the stock and consumption data. Statistical information, such as the date of original creation and that of the last change, can be invoked with , with the quick-info text Information on material.
Some data in the material master is used for information purposes only, for example, description, size, and dimensions. Other material data has a controlling function in an application. For example, the MRP type controls the MRP procedure and the price control indicator determines which material valuation procedure is used
