ME23N Material PO Text (Automatically Adopt Material PO Text)

Hi SAP Experts,
My company have just upgraded to ECC6.0. When creating Purchase Order using ME21N, the "Material PO Text" is fetched from the Material Master MM03. When we view the Print Preview using ME23N, we are able to see the text there, but when we actually print the form NEU out, the "Material PO Text" is missing. This problem didn't exist before the upgrade, has anyone have come across this?
Hi,
Does anyone knows where in SPRO can I configure so that the "Material PO Text" is automatically adopted from the Material Master. Curently we need to press the button for every line item to adopt the text.
Thanks

Hi ,
Please check if you are using smb40 smart forms for printing . We had the same issue where the Material PO text was not getting printed and the reply from SAP is as follows .
The smartforms /smb40/ were delivered by SAP Best Practices for
R/3 4.70 system,which will not be available in the ECC600 system.
Also that were never tested and enhanced in the ECC600 system.
So It is out support scope if smartforms /smb40/ are used in ECC600
system.
Limitation:
3. This workaround is for the customer who are using Preconfigure
Smartform /SMB40/* in the 470 or 500 system.
4. This workaround is not available for ECC600 system,it is not
supported
4) 843193 SAP Best Practices for Preconfigured SmartForms
Solution
Now, the preconfigured SmartForms are delivered with
the country-specific SAP Best Practices Baseline and Industry packages.
Please check http://service.sap.com/bestpractices for availability.
That means you must use Best Practices Package if you want to use
smartforms.
More release version for Best Practices Package you can find from
http://help.sap.com-->Best Practices

Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Text linkages from material master to purchase requisition

I already set the text linkage between basic data text in material master with item text in PR. I left fix indicator blank since I want the text to be adopted automatically.
I run MRP and create planned orders. Then I convert planned order to purchase requisition. Material master basic data text is not shown in purchase requisition. I tested using N and * and they both show. With N it shows (reading from material master) and I accnot modify it. With * it shows but I have to adopted to actually store the text as part of this document. With blank is not working. We want the text from material master to be automatically adopted in PR without manual intervention as with *.
Thanks and regards, Jose Oyon.

Hi
If got ur query correctly : you want to make short text field in Preq as Display.
If yes then go to Tcode OLME (or SPRO) -> Purchase requistion->Define Screen layout at doc level->select ME51N--->double click basic data, item and make short text filed as display.

CO27 : Item text in Created Material document

Hi ,
We are executing CO27 to pick material against Prodn orders / maintenance orders.
I noticed Line Item Text (MESG-SGTXT) automatically gets updated with certain text (different from material desc) in material documents mtype 261 created from CO27.
I am just wondering from where the TEXT is being picked.
If I create a 261 document manually using MB1A , no text is being picked.
Any idea from where this TEXT is picked in case of CO27.
Regards
Shrey

Hi ,
Could u pls help me to execute Co27 at my end also ..... here we are using picking list for "Maintenance orders".
I checked one maintenance order against which material document was generated with text . but surprizingly no components has been allocated to that orders.
Therefore wondering how the PICKING LIST was processed against that ORDER for which no component was allocated.
Could u pls let me know the step to replicate the process against same MAINTENANCE ORDER ?

This is a standard behivour . No need to worry . it is not an error.It comes because you have to maintain something in sales text view if the sales view is maintained in OMS2 settings.And since it is a finished material then it will come.
It dosent allow you to go to the next view when you press enter .
you have to go to the next view using Mouse .
Just click on the next view you have to create it will allow.
then fill all the views and just save the material you will be able to save

Authorisation object for "PO text in the material master"

Hi,
My requirement is as below:
"All users can see the Purchase Order Text as usual, but only a few users should be allowed to create / change the PO Long Text.
For other users, the same should appear in display mode only (both in creation & in change mode, MM01 & MM02)."
Please let me know, How to map this.
As per my knowledge thsi is possible only thru authorisation. But I want to know what is the authorisation object for "PO text in the material master" (Pl note that only for PO text in the material master field). we want control on "PO text of material master"
Regards.
Chinna

Hi,
The authorisation object is "M_MATE_MAT", pl check

Material description filled automatically as the sum of two fields

Hello to all
We can automate the process of the creation a new material doing that the field material description(MAKT-MAKTX) can be filled by the system before saving(not by the user) as the sum of two fields in the MARA table that the users will be filled manually.
Is it possible using a user exit, field exit,....?
Thanks in advance.

Automatically add material to sales order/delivery when a mat. is ordered

Hi,
When an order is created for a certain material I need another material to be added to the order automatically.
I have tried using material determination for this but it seems that only the subitem is a deliverable item, the "material entered" cannot be picked. I am unable to use a Sales BOM because that would require the creation of a new material.
Any advice appreciated, points will be rewarded.
Tom

Hi Thomas,
You try with Cross selling process you may get your requirement.
1.First you do the configuration for the cross selling.Menupath for corss selling configuration is
IMG>Sales and distribution>Basic functions>Cross selling>Define detemination for cross selling,Maintain Customer/Document procedure for cross selling and Define and assign cross selling profile.
Here you select field Material from field catelog, you put it in the access sequence then assign the access sequence to your cross selling condition type.
2. You maintain condition record for that cross selling type through the transaction VB41.
Here system will give key combination with material there you enter your base material in the detailed screen you enter tail material then save the record.
3.Now you create sales order with sales area which you maintained Cross selling profile,you enter the base material you will get tail material automatically.
I hope it will solve you problem
Thanks,
Murali.

MM-SRV: Adopt Material Group from Service Master instead of default in SPRO

At my current client we are encountering a problem when creating requisitions for services. When the system was originally configured years ago, a default value for material group was entered in the IMG under:
Logistics > Materials Management > External Services Management > Source Determination and Default Values > For Client
Field is "Default material group at item level" (V_T165-MATKL)
Up to now this singular default value was fine because they only had one material group for services. They are now wanting to further stratify their services spend, so there are now several additional values for Material Group that can (and are) used among their service master records. Having a single default value for Material Group is resulting in incorrect reporting of spend per Material Group.
I removed the default value in the config node stated above, but now the problem is that when creating a requisition line for services (item category D) in ME51N, no value for Material Group comes in at all, resulting in an error because Material Group is a mandatory field. Making the field optional on the Field Selection Groups is not a valid solution, as they need Material Group for spend reporting.
What we really need is for the Material Group to be automatically copied over from the service master data, in the same manner that this takes place for the material group contained in a material master.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
Jason

Hi,
Hi,
1) If service master is used in the PO item, then the system will take the
material group from the service master (AC01).
2) If no service master is maintained then the system will take the
material group from the table T023. To be able to change this material group on services level - if you want a different material group on services level, you must set the field ESLL-MATKL for visible in the table control settings, and the change of the service group must be carried out manually.
Please be advised that it is the standard behaviour that the material
group on service level is not updated automatically after you have
changed the material group on purchasing level. The material group on
service level must be adjusted manually.
3) By default for service lines the system will consider the material
group which is entered at the Item level.
Services can have different material groups, therefore you can change
the material group at service level. The material group in service line
can be different and always takes higher priority from the material
group at the item level.

In which tables can I find the sd texts in the material register?

Hi,
In which tables can I find the sd texts in the material register?
Thanks.

Hi,
The texts are stored in tables STXH , STXL etc. But it is not possible to fetch the details directly from the tables. You have to use the function module READ_TEXT where you have pass the parameters Text ID, Language, object as material number etc to fetch the text.
You can take the help of an ABAPer to create a program for this.

Need the TABLE where SALES TEXT of a material is stored

I need the table where the sales text of a material is stored. This can be onbtained from MM03 --> SALES TEXT. Here we can pick it up from the language.I need the table where it is stored.

Hi Gurpreet
Please follow the below steps:
1. Go to MM02.
2. Select View: <b>Sales Text</b>
3. When you are in the editor, use menupath: Goto->Header
Here we can get the details of Text-ID, Text Name, Language, Text Object.
Use these details for FM: READ_TEXT.
We can retreive all text in the output of the FM.
Hope this helps you.
Kind Regards

Print material document (WE02) automatic when GR

Hi Guru,
I want to let the system automatically print material document output "WE02" when I post Good receipt w/ MIGO 511 Movement type.
I use OMJ3 to maintain the condition type WE02/Plant/storage location/outpud device and immediate.
Please advise the other steps.
Cheer,
Rick

OMBR - Set "1" as material document printout
OMB5 - assigned "1" to 511 movement type,
But I still can get the material document automatically printed out during MIGO GR with 511 movement type.
some people guide me to pay attendtion to user profile, but I am not clear about what's NDR.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Then we need to make sure that the parameters in the user profile are set properly. NDR = "X".

Adding a new long-text type to Material Master

We need to add a long-text type to Material master, in addition to Basic, Inspection and Internal comment texts.
What would be the best way to do this?
Is there configuration that will allow the generation of a new tab in MM01 - Additional data screen, along with Basic, Inspection etc or should we create a new Screen exit for the new Text type to be edited?
If a screen Exit is available could you please name it?
Thanks a lot for the help - in Advance.

Hi,
You can add your own tabstrip in material master and put your long texts on it.
Please have a look at transactions OMT3C, OMT3B, OMT3E.
All customizing for material master extention can be found in SPRO -> Logistics - General -> Material Master -> Configuring the Material Master.
