This LSMW shows how to mass load material master characteristics. The LSMW used is exactly the same as what was used to load release procedure values. Input file is obviously different.
Material Master classification can be used to store additional information against a material master. Example: if it is finished products you may want to store: brand, pack, etc. If it is maintenance materials, you may want to store: size of item, grouping, etc.
Before loading the values (per material), you first need to create the fields (characteristics) and group them together in a class. This is done with following transaction codes:
u2022     Create class u2013 transaction CL02
u2022     Create characteristic(s)s u2013 transaction CT04
u2022     Assign characteristic(s) to class - transaction CL02
No screen shots about CL02 and CT04 u2013 you should be be able to get that right.
Material characteristic values can be viewed from a few places:
u2022     MM03 Display material and select characteristic view
u2022     CL20N Specify class type 001 and material master number
u2022     CL24N Specify class name and class type (001 in this case)
