New material creation with workflow approval

the scenario is when the new material master(mm01) is being created, the request will sent to manager for approval. so the manager can either approve or reject it. if it were rejected, is it possiable to resubmit this material master for approve after the amendement? any information on this config will be appreciated!

You can put your approval in a loop and loop till it is approved. In rejection branch put a dialog step for creator of material and give to person who is responsible to changeing and call MM02 or something from that step and yes also give an option here where creator of approver can choose to abondone the material totaly which will bring it out of loop and completes teh workflow, which will other wise complete only on approval.

Material Creation using Workflow

This is my scenario .
Initially when a new Material created it will have only the Basic 1 & 2 views alone .
At the same time a workflow have to be triggered such that it have to send to a workitem to person who should define the MRP views only not other views of the material after it is finished another workitem to another person to define the account assignment views only not other views .Kindly help to proceed.
- David Boon.

Hi Martina,
If you have done that then you are almost on the verge of completion!
Follow this binding procedure between the task container and the method container and get the results.
In the BO method, add an output parameter that would store the plant detail.
Now create a data element in the method code of the same type as plant detail type.
Then use swc_set_element to store the value of the plant detail in the output parameter.
In the workflow task, create an output parameter of the same type as the BO method output parameter.
In the binding between the task container and the method container fetch the value of plant details from method container to task container element.
Now pass this parameter to the workflow container and use in the send mail step in the mail text.
Make sure to save and generate the BO after doing all the changes.

Material Creation with Classification Data

Hi friends,
I am technical guy,
I need to know how to create material(MM01) with classification data,
if i want fetch data , where i will find that data ( means which tables).
Thanks in Advance,
regards,
Bhaksar

HI Bhaskar,
I will explain you a scenario, where you will be able to understand the relation.
Consider i am manufacturing a two wheeler, which has the material number but with various colours say Red and Blue.
In this case during my SD process, in the sales order, i need to mention the material number also with the colour as Red in the batch field in order to make the process more specific.
In order to cater this need, i need to activate batch managment for that material in the purchasing view and also opening the classification view in the Material master with the batch class as 001 _ Material Class.
Now my work will not get completed without maintaining a batch master for the same. Ie i have to ensure a batchmaster for the material using tcode MSC1N, with batch as colour, Material code, Plant and storage location also if split valuation is activated, we need to mention the valuation type too.
Hope i had thrown some lights over the topic enquired.

RitiG

Error with workflow approval BADI- BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI

Hi All,
We are running SRM 5.5 Classic Scenario.
We have activated "BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI" for n-step approval process of shopping carts. From a certain period of time I am facing the following problem: when a user, with defined output limit in the extended attributes, creates shopping cart below this limit, the shopping cart instead to be ordered immediately stays in status u201CIn your inboxu201D and there is a message in the field "notes for approval" that the user WF-BATCH is not assigned in the organizational structure, and the item status is u201Cawaiting approvalu201D. Although, if you go to approval preview, the message is that no approval is required, the shopping cat is sent for approving to the manager.
It is very strange, because workflow user has never been assigned to the organizational structure and the other strange thing is that this problem exists in all SRM systems (development, quality and training).
We tried to debug the BADI, and we couldn't find any problem. The BADI first checks the spent limit of the user (which is the set output limit in the extended attributes of that user) and because the validation is ok (the value of the shopping cart is below the spent limit) the process stops. But at the same time the shopping cart is sent for approving to the first manager.
Has anybody of you faced this problem?
Thank you in advance!
Desislava

Hi Masa,
Yes, this is my issue, that the shopping cart is sent to the manager for approving! And at the same time when the user is checking the status of the shopping cart -the status is"In your inbox" and the status of the item is "awaiting approval". When you go to item details-> to additional specification tab(field), a system message is generated in the field "notes for approval" and the message is "Cannot find org unit for user WF-BATCH". In my opinion that means that the system is searching for WF-batch as approver. Let me briefly tell you how the BADi works, first validates the spent limit of the user if the value of the shopping cart is below then the shopping cart should be sent directly to r/3 system and a PO should be created. If the value is above, the system start checking to which organizational unit the users belongs, and after that determines the first approver!
Hope it is more clear for you!
Thanks

New material creation

Hi,
My client requires to create new materials based on material group only.Is it possible to by z developement
other than std tcode mm01.means when I enter material group all the fields should popup automatically.
How to do it?

For creation of material, the basic data required is the Material type, Industry, basic data view, UOM
So material group is secondary requirement.
To have material created based on material group and the subsequent fileds, you can use BDC.
Matnr: Indusrty: Material type: Description: UOM:Material group: these are the minimum fields aas per your requiremnt.You record from here on.

Text: error in identifying control file <name>
Cause: The system could not find a control file of the specified name and
size.
Action: Either
Check that the proper control filename is referenced in the
CONTROL_FILES initialization parameter in the initialization parameter
file and try again.
When using mirrored control files, that is, more than one control file
is referenced in the initialization parameter file, remove the control
filename listed in the message from the initialization parameter file
and restart the instance.
If the message does not recur, remove the problem control file from
the initialization parameter file and create another copy of the
control file with a new filename in the initialization parameter file.

Error in pipeline material creation

hi,
we want to create one pipeline material as per our new requirement for showing gas consumption.during material creation with mat type PIPE, it's showing an error:The field Profit Center is defined as a required field; it does not contain
an entry.
Procedure
If the field is the material group or unit of weight, and the field is not ready for input, check whether the material is locked. If it is locked, you cannot extend the Purchasing view or the Sales view. If either of these views needs to be extended, the material must first be unlocked. This can be done only by a user with special authorization.
thanx,
sheetal

Hi
In your client if Profit center accounting(PCA) is activated ,then you need to maintain the Profit center for the material.
Option 1: goto OMS2, got details of pipleine material & select the Costing View of the material.
Now goto MM01 in creation of pipeline material & maintain the profit center in Cotsing 1 View.
Deactivating the field from mandatory to optional will not serve your purpose as PCA will get affected.
Thanks & Regards
Kishore

Any suggestion

Looks like user_updatable_columns sort of thinks the MV is just a table - I don't know about that...
An MV on a single table can be updated - I tried that and it works:
create materialized view mv_table_1 for update
as
select * from table_1;I noticed [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16579/advmv.htm#sthref294]examples stating the UNION ALL needs a "marker" so Oracle can know from the data which source table a row in the MV originates from - like this:
create materialized view v_table_all for update
as
select 'T1' tab_id, table_1.* from table_1
union all
select 'T2' tab_id, table_2.* from table_2 ;But that also fails (the "marker" requirement was specifically for FAST REFRESH, so it was just a long shot ;-) )
What are you planning to do?
<li>Create the MV.
<li>Update records in the MV - which then is no longer consistent with the source data.
<li>Schedule a complete refresh once in a while - thereby overwriting/losing the updates in the MV.
If that is the case, I suggest using a true table rather than an MV.
<li>Create table t_table_all as select ... .
<li>Update records in the table - which then is no longer consistent with the source data.
<li>Schedule a job to delete table and insert into table select ... once in a while - thereby overwriting/losing the updates in the table.
In other words a kind of "do it yourself MV".
I cannot see another way at the moment? But perhaps try in the data warehousing forum - the people there may have greater experience with MV's ;-)

Creation of new material with reference to other material

Hi All,
I have requirement where i have to create new selling unit material with reference to the given material.
Now, can any buddy suggest which FM or BADI i have to use to read BOM and ROUTING info of reference material and same to create BOM and ROUTING for new material.
Doing this with BDC after reading data directally from tables is one option, But i am looking for any BADI or Fm which will serve the purpose.
Thanks in Advance,
Rahul

Hi,
... but if you prefer FM, then you can use BAPI_MATERIAL_MAINTAINDATA_RT or BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA, depending if you are using Retail or not. BDC is usually not possible for all views - which you would need for complete creation.

Christian

Partitions in service workshop for DBM with creation of a new material ty

Dear experts,
recently we have created a new type of material ZLOC for purchases of certain materials. When we mount an order of service in DBM and we assign a partition in which we place the client 1 that will pay 0% and to the client 2 100% of the total, the values of services and of parts it places them well to the client 2. But the value that corresponds with this new material type assigns it so much to the client 1 as at the 2. That it is necessary of configuring for this new material type so that he makes the partition well?
the bad operation is given when one bills the order and we will consult the document flow in the part of the accounting document for the client 1. That he should have 0 in the countable departure and this registering the value that corresponds with the material for this new created type.
Thank you ahead of time for their valuable help.

You can create a new costing variant with a valuation variant that points to inforecords for material prices. Go to OKKN t-code and create the required configuration and start using the new costing variant to measure the current cost of making vehicles.

Reg: Creation of new Material type

Hai Guys,
Jino here,can anyone please tell me the procedure for creating my own "MATERIAL TYPE"
while creating a new material.
Regards
Jino.

Hi
decide which material type in the standard availabilty closely resembles you New material Type you are planning to create, It may be ROH/HALB/FERT/ERSA or any other. Use the TxN OMS2 for this, select the existing Std Material and do a Copy As and name the New material Type starting with Z . for example ZRAW , once saved select the material tyep and go to the details of the new material type , you can remove Certail views if you donot wish to have it during material creation, check out other parameters also lie external proc/internal proc, standard or Moving avg price indicator and proceed as required for you.

Materialized View creation with REFRESH FAST

Hello ,
Please see below case,
TABLE A1(partitioned range+list)
COLUMN C1 -- Primary key
COLUMN C2 -- NUMBER
TABLE D1
COLUMN C1 -- PRIMARY KEY
created MV log as below
CREATE MATERIALIzED VIEW LOG ON A1 WITH ROWID,PRIMARY KEY INCLUDING NEW VALUES;
CREATE MATERIALIzED VIEW LOG ON D1 WITH ROWID,PRIMARY KEY INCLUDING NEW VALUES;
Trying to create MV like below:
CREATE MATERILIZED VIEW mv1test
                                REFRESH FAST ON COMMIT
AS
Select
FROM A1,
                        D1
                WHERE A1.C1 = D1.CI
AND A1.C2 IS NOT NULL;
It gives below error message:
ORA-12052: cannot fast refresh materialized view schema.mv1test
12052. 00000 - "cannot fast refresh materialized view %s.%s"
*Cause:    Either ROWIDs of certain tables were missing in the definition or
           the inner table of an outer join did not have UNIQUE constraints on
           join columns.
*Action:   Specify the FORCE or COMPLETE option. If this error is got
           during creation, the materialized view definition may have be
           changed. Refer to the documentation on materialized views.
However ,as discussed in earlier thread i checked all general restrictions of the 'Refresh fast' approach for join.
Restrictions on Fast Refresh on Materialized Views with Joins Only
Defining queries for materialized views with joins only and no aggregates have the following restrictions on fast refresh:
1) They cannot have GROUPBY clauses or aggregates.
2) Rowids of all the tables in the FROM list must appear in the SELECT list of the query.
3)Materialized view logs must exist with rowids for all the base tables in the FROM list of the query.
4)You cannot create a fast refreshable materialized view from multiple tables with simple joins that include an object type column in the SELECTstatement.
As per above restrictions ,
1) Group by clause is not present
2)i do not understand 2nd point , i have added a1.rowid and d1.rowid in select statement of MV, but got same error.
3) observed same as 2nd point.
4)we have CLOB column in select list. Tried removing this column but got same error.
Please do let me know any workaround on this.
Thanks in advanced ..

Basic Materialized Views show how to analyse MVs using dbms_mview. I'm not sure about creating MVs on partitioned tables, that partition maintenance might cause problems

Creation of Material Documents With Mvt Type

On Performing Post Goods Issue (PGI) in one Plant in case of Plant to Plant Dispatches, there should be Inbound delivery created for already created Purchase Order (PO). In addition after creation of inbound delivery, there should be material document created with 103 movement. This Material document is triggered when the inbound delivery is saved. Once Warehouse processes are finished, then Post Goods Receipt (PGR) happens, so 101 Movement Type happens for Purchase Order. PGR document should trigger one more material document with 104 movements; this document is reversal for material document with 103 movement type.
can any one suggest to enhance SAP for this?

Hi Nitin,
Before creating the Service type of product, you have to define the Base category for Service type product. Generally the category for service will be created under the R3 hierarchy R3PRODSTYPE. You can create this category using the TCode:
COMM_HIERARCHY. Here you have to select the product type as Service and have to assign the set types to the category.
You can create a service product using the transaction : COMMPR01 -> Click on Service ICON -> Select the Category for Service Type. Then fill in the details for Service Product description, Service ID(Based on number range settings for products), Language.
Also fill other details like Base Unit of measure, Pricing condition for different sales areas for the service product.
Since you are using CRM7.0, you can do all these activities using a POWER USER role.
For more information about Set types and hierarchies please refer the following help link:
