This is caused by a program error.
Solution
Implement the attached source code corrections according to the 'Advance corrections'
Fidn more details in the note.

Hello Ramya
i want to know how the Material Types, material Groups and number ranges forMaterial Types created. are these created in Datamanager?
Material types and Material Groups are defined as flat Lookup tables in MDM. You can either maintain them manually by exporting the table values from SAP and importing them in MDM using Import manager OR use transaction MDMGX for automatically populating these values from SAP to MDM.
On how to configure MDMGX and its use please refer to following links-
How to Use MDMGX
https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012006153200000394732006E/MDM554_GenericExtactor.pdf
Number Ranges- If the numbering schema is simple and can be replicated in MDM using calculated fields we can define calculation fields for Material numbers. Or we can also assign a number range while defining the remote systems in MDM based on Material type.
Hope this helps-Ravi

Material type for - Diesel

Hi Friends,
My Client is Construction Equipment leasing company.
They lease (Say Generator ) on lease, they also sell Diesel along with that machine.
For Diesel, which material type we use?? I thought of using (HIBE - Operating Supplies) but it doesnt have Sales View {other option - i can configure copy of HIBE with Sales View} .
Any other material type we can use for Diesel.
Regards,
Jackie

you can create own material types or change SAP given material types to your local needs.
if you want sales views for HIBE, then add it.
if you dont produce Diesel, just buy and sell, then it is usually a trading good HAWA.

SAP report for movement type and material type

Hi!
I would like to use a standard SAP report to give me a list of all the movement types (much like MB51) but instead of material I would like to select on Material type e.g. ROH. The result should for example be a list of the movement types 501 on material type ROH.
It is urgent, if you could help me I would be very greatful!
Sincerely
Anders Öhrling

Thanks for your answer!
I have managed to join the two tables and created a report that will work, except that the amounts in local currency that is given by movement type 201 is not negative (as in MB51). I need all movement types that generate a debit must be shown as a negative value. Wo when I summarize all the movement types I end up with the value of 101 minus 201.
Is that possible without ABAP programming?
Sincerely Anders Öhrling

I need the definitions for below material types

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me the diefinition of the below material types
1) WM materials
2) Consumable Material
3) Stock Material
thanks in advance,
Prashnath.

Hi Prashant,
Stock material :
A stock material is a material that is kept in stock. Such materials are placed in storage following a goods receipt . When goods are received by or issued from stores or the warehouse, the stock on hand is increased or reduced by the amount of the quantity received or issued.
Consumable material :
When you procure for direct consumption, you specify the consumption purpose by entering an account assignment (for example, a cost center) . On goods receipt, the material or service counts as having been consumed.
If a material is procured for direct consumption, the consumption accounts in Financial Accounting are posted when the goods receipt is entered . The total quantity and value of existing stocks of the material are not affected.
Warehouse material :
Purpose
The SAP Warehouse Management system (WMS) provides flexible, automated support in processing all goods movements and in managing stocks in your warehouse complex. The system supports scheduled and efficient processing of all logistics processes within your warehouse.
If you manage your warehouse stocks with SAP Inventory Management (MM-IM), you manage the quantities and values of stocks in several storage locations.
In comparison, the WMS allows you to map your entire warehouse complex in detail to storage bin level. Not only do you gain an overview of the entire quantity of a material in the warehouse; you can also always determine exactly where a certain material currently is in your warehouse complex. With the WMS you can optimize the use of all of your storage bins and warehouse movements, and store material stocks from several plants together in warehouses with random storage.
Hope thsi will give some Idea to you.

Modifying standard material type configuration provided by SAP

I was recently involved in a discussion regarding whether or not to modify sap provided material types (e.g. FERT)
My position was that SAP provided material type configuration should not be modified, instead a z-version of the standard material type should be copied over to a z-version or a y-version (FERT copied as ZFRT), configurations changes made the z-version. My position was based on the following considerations:-
Reference to the original
Possible implication at the time of future releases or upgrades - In Some of my previous projects this was a reason why the standard material type configurations were never touched
Hence I am curious to know if there a more current or correct position on this topic.

Hi Jose,
You are absolutely correct that standard material type should not be changed as you can always reference to the original if you want to create a new material type by copying the old ones. I too have seen ZFRT and FERT.
I go by creating a Z one, as I have always the option to reference the original Material Type. As the above members have already replied the same.
It is very easy to check the material type like FERT, ROH etc. However, say you have changed the settings for standard material type like FHMI, LEIH, VERP etc and you want to create a new material type by referencing any of the above, you will need to check client 000 (as referred by Jurgen) to check what Pricing control it have S or V. What Item Category is in original. What selection of views are there in original etc. you always have a better edge to check from the originals if you do not change them.

Hi,
You can take material type ROH /or copy the same and make new material type with required valuation class and G/L setting.
And while making PR and PO select account assignment A-Asset and make capital PO accordingly.
Hope this will resolve your issue.

New material type in SAP CRM

Hi SAP CRM Experts,
I would like to create a new material type in CRM .
Would it be necessary to create a new material type in CRM or can create in SAP ERP and replicate to CRM or in need to create in both systems? What are the steps to be followed ?
Please advice me.
Cheers
Sreedhar

You can create it just on ERP side and replicate it to CRM system. To do the replication, go to transaction R3AS an run object DNL_CUST_PROD1. This download has to be performed before the material download.
A delta download is not available so this replication must be repeated everytime data is changed in ERP. You can monitor the progress of download in R3AM1.
Regards.

Material type - maintainance by qty and value

Dear All Guru,
Yesterday I had copied the plant from the plant belong to same company and maintained the same val Gr Code.
But i found that I am not able to make GR posting and the error was Plant and material type is not matching and then over SDN i got the soln to maintain qty and value for matl type and it resolved the problem.
but can anybody tell me that why this can happen ?
b'coz still if the val/qty ticks are not maintained why system is showing the material type and plant combination error...though it can consider this as UNBW material and can still post the GR
also can you suggest the right method for coping the plant so i won't face problem like this or any check methods after coping new plant
Regards,
Vimlesh

Hi,
For Preparation of New Plant, following steps to be adopted.
1. Excute the India Specific Localize Sample Organizational Units using SPRO> Enterprise Structure> Localize Sample Organizational Units.
In this IMG activity, you localize the sample organizational units by applying the appropriate country template like India to them.
2. Then, in the next IMG activities (under Enterprise Structure Definition and Assignment), you copy these localized organizational units to create units of your own.
Caution:
Only execute this IMG activity if you have not changed any Customizing settings in SAP R/3.
Do not execute this IMG activity in your production client, as it will overwrite the settings for any organizational units named 0001. Run it only in your production preparation client from where you will transport to Prodution Client.
Note: Unless you adopt this procedure to create the new plant, till then you will encounter the same Error which you are facing.so these are the guide line for create of new/Additional country specific Organizational Units.
hope it helps...

Field selection for Material Type

Hi,
When we create the material type we are assigning a field ref. in Define Material attributes screen, and when we are creating the industry sector there also we are assigning a field screen reference.
No when we creat a materail with MM01, and if Field ref. is different in Industry sector and material type then which system will follow when we create the material it will be ref. to field selection in Material type or industry sector.
regards,,
zafar

Zafar,
When you talkout Material type is basically controls the properties of a Material like important control fucntions and attributes.
That is inturn, like Field selection, Special material type, Type of Procurement, Stock (Qty &Value) updation, User departments and Price control. But,
where as Field selection is control key which consits of some setoff fields which are subjected to a perticular Industry sector like, Plant &Construction, Mechanical Industry, Pharmacuetical Industry, Chemical Industry, etc. In this case field selection is different from Industry to Industry, but in some cases field selection is common for the similar kind of Industries or Industry sectors.
And the Field selection is subjected to the Material type as well, that means each material type can have their own Field selection (it is named with a field selection key 3 char sap code for field selection).
Comming to the Creation of Material master record : using MM01 ( create material -general)
here, you need to select the material type and industry sector --> then you need to choose the relevent user departments and subsequently plant, sloc.etc.
Note: when you are creating the material in the above fasion, you need to enter the relevent data which is w.r.to the user departments which you have choosen, and those inturn reflect from this control data ( attributes and important control functions as I said is the definition of Material type).
And this is how a material is created, wether it can be a Raw material, Semi finished Product or Finished Product, etc.
Note: There is an option to create your own Material Types, but SAP suggests to use standard Material type when you create material master record, unless otherwise a special requirement comes from your client is from Specific Industry sector or if running a special kind of business which is not yet dragged into the SAP R/3 system.
Hope this will clarifies your query.
With Regards,
Srin

Check the Stock of a particular material is available in SAP R/3 from Java

Hi all,
We have both SAPR/3 and Java Based Systems and going to integrate with XI.
For Java user is it possible to check the Stock of a particular material is available in SAP R/3 system or not.
For this requirement can we create any scenario and get the stock available info from SAPR3?
If so then which type of adapters we have to use in this case.
The Java user don't want to store any data here and there but just view the stock is available or not just from his end only.
bye
regards
konala

You can use synchronous Java Proxy-XI-RFC.
Code the RFC to get the stock of R/3 material and route the response back to proxy.

Different Material Types in different Plants

Hi,
I have 2 Plant under a Company Code. A material being produced in plant A has to be sent to Plant B for further processing. I would like to maintain single material master for both the plants, but different Material Types. Material has to be treated as Finished Goods in Plant A and Raw Material at Plant B. Could any one please let me know how I can MAP it in SAP.
Regards,
Nagaraja Achar.

Hi,
For the Same material Code you can not maintain two material types in two plants..
But you can make a Z* mat type with all the relevant views of FG & ROH..
For Plant 1 it will have all the views
and for Plant 2 extend only the ROH relevant views...
Thx
Raju
