Model Selection field in Forecasting tab of Material Master

It is used for automatic model selection in forecasting...
Is there a config that can turn this field on or off?

Hi,
You have to maintain the forecast profile with automatic model selection and maintain these for the parts while maintaining the forecasting view material master.
You can create forecast profile from MP80.
Now whenever you perform the forecast then these profile will be checked and forecast will pick up automatic model.

hi,
sap gurus,
good evening to all,
can i know where sales forecasting field will be there in material master record,

plz help me on this.
regars

Dear balaji
In material master, there is a tab "Forecasting" which will come after MRP4. If you select this tab, you can see a field "Forecast model".
If you are unable to see this tab in MM01, go to OMS2, select the material type and click on blue lens on top left so that you can see a tab "User departments". Select from here the said tab and save. Now go to MM01 and you can see the tab displays there.
thanks

Use of field "design documents assigned" in material master

hi,
kindly help me to use the field "design documents assigned" in material master. whenever i creat material master (MM01) in basic data2 view this field comes with grey/black No Link indicator. how to use this and for what .
regards
roshan s.

Hi Roshan,
Insted of using this field u can assign Document directly to the Additional Data tab.
TO attach the document to Material Master go to Additional data ---> Document data, assign Document.
You can confirm it by pressing F1 key by selecting that Field.

Foreign Trade Import/Export Tab in Material Master of SAP R/3

Hi
What is the use of Foreign Trade Import/Export Tab in material master of SAP R/3

Hi Akhil ..
Sounds like you need to enrol for the SAP Foreign Trade training course!
The tab holds various attributes for determining Foreign Trade data - for example the Customs classification and Country of Origin. Those data are used to determine and/or populate fields in the Foreign Trade data when processing MM and SD documents.
Some, but not all, of the fields in that tab become redundant if GTS is in use.
If you have more specific questions in this area, it might be easier to give better explanations.

Dave

Error with Valuation Category in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master

Dear All,
I have created plant and also activated the "Split Activation" for that plant through SPRO-MM-Valuation & A/c Assignment ---Split valuation.
But when i Extend the material form another plant the "Valuation Category" field in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master becomes INACTIVE (i.e. it becomes gray). Where as for the plant (from which i am copying the material) the same field is ACTIVE.
Please suggest me what might be the error.
I have checked the setting for both the plants i.e. in which it is working and the other where it is not working. The settings are same.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shailendra
If this is for a single material.
I hope u r using MM01 only by giving reference of existing mat., in this case, at this stage only you have to maintain Valuation Category.
Once the material is created, the field will become gray.
This is what I know. If still, there is any way to make this field active, if u come to know, please let me know too.

Adding fields in costing view of material master

Hi gurus,
I need to add 4 fields in costing view of material master. I have followed the steps in SPRO, for configuring customized screen in material master.
1) Created a function group YMMCO and copied the screen 2904 from program SAPLMGD1.
2) Added 4 fields in my customized screen.
3) Created copy of 01 ( Screen reference ) to z1 in OMT3B.
Since 2904 is not there in the sequence . I changed one 0001 sequence at the end to 2904 . I also assigned my program
SAPLYMMCO to it. I can see the changed fields in data screen and subscreen.
4) Then I assigned the SSq to z1 in transaction OMT3E.
But unfortunately, when I go to MM01 to create a material , I am not able to view the fields I added in costing view.
I have checked the screen for the previous field, it shows 2904 only.
Two days back, I did the same thing in basic data view 1 , it was working properly. As per client's suggestion I put it in
costing view, it is not working . Please give me suitable suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

How to include field Internal order in the material master for SD orders

Hello,
I would like to know how I can bring the field "Internal Order" to the material master, so I can create materials with assignments to internal orders.
We want to create Sales Orders where when we enter on order item with a material, the internal order is derived automatically from the material master.
Thank you in advance!
Jose Eximeno

Hello,
I am not familiar with the field "product attributes" in relation with entering the field "internal order"...
Could you be a little more specific on how product attributes can be used to enter the internal order number in the material master?
Best regards,
Jose

In SOP- transfer forecasted values from material master to info structure?

Hi All,
I wanted to test out a few scenarios. Do you know the answers / can you help simulate and check the below?
1.     If I run the forecast using different models for different materials using the total forecast run (MP38), the forecast values will get updated in the material master. Can I get these values transferred directly into the SOP (standard or flexible), without re-running the forecast in SOP? What I am looking at is a possible scenario where individual materials have different forecast model, so do not want to run forecast from SOP using one model for all.
2.       Can you have the capability of selecting diff model (say based on material master data) in SOP for diff materials? When I ran SOP, the model I specify there for forecasting is applied for all materials
3.       If I upload historical values/forecasted values in the material master, can I directly transfer them to SOP without any change to the value?
Appreaciate your inputs.

Thanks for your reply.
I would like to know am using strategy 52 for this FG, so that i can have option to procure order specific components after sales order arrival, and components which are not specific to the order can be procured before sales order arrival. Where am confused is if am planning with FG1 i.e. am entering PIR for FG1 and am procuring order independent components before sales order arrival and suppose if the sales order arrives for FG2 for which components i have procured before sales order arrival is same but the remaining components which are order specific are different from that of FG1, then how the MRP shall behave. How the requirement for the FG2 shall be met. Kindly throw some light on this scenario.
Expecting a positive and prompt response.

Adding a subscreen in Plant data/stor. 1u0094 tab in Material master

Hi All,
I need to add a subscreen in material master Plant data/stor. 1 tab. Please let me know if its posible.
Warehouse management requires a primary bin and 4 alternative bin locations to be added to the material master. Four custom fields will be added in addition to the standard primary storage bin location field. These fields will be held at the branch/storage location level.
For this I enhanced MARD table with a structure contains 4 fields.
A sub-screen should be added to the Plant data/stor. 1 tab. Alternative Bin Information section should hold the additional four fields.
I want to add a sun screen under General data. This sub screen contains 4 fields for alternative storage bins.
Regards,
Venkat.

Hi,
Hi,
u'll have to do the following:
1. copy the std func group MGD1 to ZMGD1....include all ur custom screen and make sure u hav written the PBO and PAI .
Best way would be copy any standard screen and then making any change there like modifying the label.
2. next step is copying the screen sequence ( logistics-material master-configuring the material master)....01 to z1 and then assigninng all ur new program and screen name in this custom screen seq ...
and u can assign this custom screen seq to diff material type....
there is a bit of SPRO involved in this...
and check the BADI BADI_MATERIAL_REF.

Unable to view the MRP1 tab in Material master MM02

Hi all
In Material master some of one of the material i am able to view the MRP1 and MRP2 at the same time some of the other material I am unable to view the MRP1. Please help me to find out the root cause of the problem.
I want to view the MRP1 for other material.
Note: Purchasing group, Valuation class, Material Group are same for all the material.
Regards
K.Gunasekar

HI,
Whenever you create a material master record, you assign it to a material type. MRP1, MRP2 These attributes you will define of each material.
The material type for which you want to define MRP, Run Tcode OMS2, Select the appropriate material type from Dialog Structure and click on details Icon, In the User Departments Field select MRP and Save.
Next Time when you will create material using that Material type it will come automatically.

Logistic handling group tab of material master

Hi,
We are actually grouping materials based on the picking types, these picking types should be visible in the material master plant data/ stor.2 view under the tab Log. handling group field.
Can anybody tell me how do I create these picking types.
Thanks
Mike

The path to create a new logistics handling group is :
Log. Execution >WH management> Planning & Monitoring -->Rgh workload estimate -->calculate workload -->maintain log. load category.
Here you would be able to create new log handling group to populate your log handling field in plant/ stor.2 view.
thanks
