PR Release with Material Type Characteristics

Dear Experts,
Any of you used material type as PR release class craracteristics?
I have one query regarding this-
1. My business requires material type wise relesae strategy, means raw material and spares will have separate release strategy
2. We have included material type in Class cracteristics.
My query is if user creates a PR with out material code, that PR will not have any material type. But I want this to follow the release strategy. How to achieve this goal?
Anybody worked with this scenario?
Full points will be awarded for suitable solutions.
Regards,
Santoah

Hi,
Instead of material type, you can use material groups for release strategy. Even, if a user creates a requisition without material code, he will still have to enter a material group. This will serve ur purpose.
However, if there are many material groups and you prefer going with material type, then you will have to enhance the communication structure CEBAN, with Material type field, to be able to create a release characteristic for material type.
Hope this helps. Reward, if useful.

Creation of Material Master for a material with Material Type NLAG

Hello Sirs,
I have to create a material which will be consumed directly. I would use the
material type NLAG (Non stock material). If I create a material with this material type, will it contain an Accounting view where in I can maintain the price of the
material? If it contains an Accounting view, which type of Price control should be
used (Moving average or Standard)? Further, can we maintain an info record for
a material with material type NLAG?How the price updation happens?
Regards
Yoga

Hi Madhu,
Thanks for your reply. But, I have one more doubt. For non stock materials, we
will specify the cost centre and G/L account at the time of creation of Purchase order. Then, do we have to specify the valuation class at the time of creation of
Material Master since there is no automatic account determination?

Error with Material type/Tax code access sequence in Tax procedure

Hi,
I am trying to create an access sequence with Material type/tax code combination for my tax procedure. While I can generate the condition table successfully, I cannot create an access sequence. The access sequence gives me the pop up message " select a document field for MTART". I searched in the field catalog and its absent. However MTART exists in the table KOMG.
How can I include the field MTART ( material type) in the field catalog. The tax code field is shown as green. Please help.
Thanks and regards,
Soumya.

The field MTART was included as standard in the table . I didn't have to add anything. Further, i couldn't find any standard access sequence for tax procedures that include material type.
I am really stuck with this!!

PO with material type DIEN - Services

Hello!
What´s the best way to deal with PO for material type DIEN so that i don´t have to do the GR for that PO?
In the PO i don t want to put any Account Assignment Category. Is it possible to make the Goods Receipt Indicator available to check it or not?
Best Regards

If you do not want to do GR, make it a framework order with limits. If you have a material, you need to do a GR.

PR release procedure for material types

Hi all,
I have a question, I created new release procedure for combination :
1. NB pur.requsition, purchasing group + material type (let sey roh.. etc)
2. YNB pur.requsition, purchasing groups + material type (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003).
- 3 characteristcs for pur.groups, doc.type and material type.
- 1 class
- 2 release groups (E1 and P1)
- For release group P1, In rel.strategy in classification I entered values for pur. requisition (NB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZUSL-001.. ect)
- For release group E1, in rel. strategy in classification entered values
values for pur. requisition (YNB), purchasing groups (001,002, 003 ect) and material types (ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003)
So, problem is that if I enter pur.requisition YNB and material type ZSTE-001, needs release; if I add item with material type ZUSL-001, there is no release.
How can I restrict the values so that is giving error if by mistake is entered between material types ZSTE-001, ZSTE-002, ZSTE-003 material type ZUSL-001 in document type YNB, which is not allowed to be entered?
Thanks in advance,
Anchi

Hello
In PR you can set up this release strategy without classification release strategy.
w/o classification strategy you can define the release line item wise. so you can give diiff materual group you can enter with line item wise.

How config release strategy by materia type.

Hello... Help me...
I want to PO Release by material type(MTART), but in CEKKO, there is no MTART.
So I use user-exit EXIT_SAPLEBND_002-ZXM06U22.
But I didn't config PO release by material type.
I set characteristic-additional data Table name : CEKKO, Field name : LBLIF.
What is wrong this user-exit program? (If material type = ZROH' --> PO Release)
DATA IS_BEKPO TYPE BEKPO.
move-corresponding i_cekko to e_cekko.
LOOP AT IT_BEKPO INTO IS_BEKPO.
    IF IS_BEKPO-MTART = 'ZROH'.
       MOVE IS_BEKPO-MTART TO E_CEKKO-LBLIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

Hi,
For PO's, only header level release is possible. There is no item level release possible.
Material type is item level data. That's why using material type, you can't configer release strategy for the PO's.

"Material type HALB cannot be used with item category L (plant 1000)"

Hi Guys
I am trying to copy the BOM of a material.
The error msg.
"matrial type HALB cannot be used with item category L (plant 1000)"
Diagnosis: you want to enter a new componet with material type HALB and item category L.
Settings in IMG for production (master data> BOM > Item data > define item category) determine that inventory management for this item category is to be based on quantity.
However, other settings in the IMG for material HALB in plant 1000 determine that the quantities are not updated in the material master. This means that you cannot enter this material with item category L.
Can anyone tell me how to correct this error please.
Thanks.
Ahmad Yahya

Hi Ahmad,
Follow this navigation path in SPRO
IMG: Logistics > Material Master > Basic Settings > Material Type > Define Attributes (OMS2)
Select a material type ( like in your case HALB) and navigate to Quantity/Value Updates. Now try to locate your plant to which you want to assign your BOM to. And then set the flags Qunatity Updating and Value Updating and save.
Now, you can come out of CS01(BOM creation) transaction and re-enter CS01. Now you can maintain the data and error will not come.

Material type and account assignment group relation

Hi,
Getting an error while creating material master save. Account assignment Zx can't be with Material Type Zxxxx.
Please advise where is the link maintained between material account assignment group and material type.
My material is Z service material.
As I no for plant,industry, material type valuation class quanity update tick required but that is for stockable materials which is not the case above.
Thanks

HI,
You can make the field Account Assignment Group of Material Master as inactive.
But it depends up on Plant, Industry Sector Type and Material Type.
You can do this in IMG --> Logistic General --> Material Master --> Field Selection
Or
use SHD0.. give T-code MM01. and you can deactivate the field.
Hope this helps you.

Creation of material in material type "hers"

Can anybody please tell me in detail how to create a material in material type "hers"

Hi Keerthi,
you can take eg: of Manufacturer Part Profile for this scenario.
Create External No ranges for Vendor Account Group MNFR and save.
Now Create Each Make like ABB as one Vendor in XK01 Trxn code.
Create Material Code original in mm01 with ROH material type. (for eg Transistor which is available with ABB & Seimens make)
Create material code with Material type HERS which contain only two views (Basic Data & Purchasing) and give Make, Original material No & Material group and other details and save.
Create a Purchase order with original Material, then it will ask for mnfg part profile then select the material and click F4 on it it will show you the created mfg part nos like ABb 7 seimes and select one and save.
Before this you have to Activate MFg part profile in OMPN trxn code.
And in Material master Purchasing View Select the mfg part profile and save.

Stock transfer of different material type

Sir,
finish material of one plant is raw material for other plant. i've to use intercompany stock transfer. How should i cope up with material types? How accounting and excise register entries will effect?

Dear shailesh jagtap
Hi how r u??
Actually The first and foremeost thing that you should remember is that Finished goods should always have Sales View and not Purchase view,Secondly Raw material should never have Sales View.
And Semi finish can have Purchase as well as Sales view.
So if u got stuck in the situation wherein u have to purchase the material and also sell
in that case use material type as HALB
Whereas in some cases if at all it is required then in that case u can set the Purchase view to finish goods or u can set sales view for ROH(Raw amterial)
in logistic general-Material master -AMterial types just for ROH or FERT select the views u require
