Pur value key & shipping instruction in material master.

I have maintained shipping instructions in SPRO for a particular purchase value key.
Now created material master with this purchase value key, shipping instruction is reflecting.
But it is coming as display field.
Some time this shipping instruction has to be changed manually in material master without changing the pur value key.
Is there any way to do it?
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi,
If you want the field to be in editing mode, then you're defeating the very purpose of defining the key. Anyways for your need, you can use the info-record, the shipping instruction field is editable in Info-record. You can create info-record via ME11 for the material - vendor - pur org combination.
Hope the above resolves your query.

Vivek

Copy characteristic value(class 023 ) from the material master to the batch

Dear All,
Is there a way to copy the characteristic value (class 123) from material master to the batch master automatically once we create a batch of that material
I tried to create a dependency, but didnu2019t know what to write in the dependency editor
Please advise

I dont know if its possible in standard, you can try and create a reference batch, and use the below user exit I found in SAP library :
Set Up Customer Exit for Determining Source Batch
You can use function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_011 in SAP enhancement SAPLV1ZN when assigning characteristic values to batches. You use this to specify a reference batch when creating a new batch with the central function module VB_CREATE_BATCH.
Further notes
The reference batch must always be specified completely. This means the reference material, source batch and reference plant details must have been entered if the batch is determined at plant level.
All batch master data is copied. If the batch is classified in this enhancement, the values assigned to the corresponding characteristics are copied.
In the exit, you can use a communication structure with the application data for the respective business transaction (for example, plant or material type). If you require further information, you must obtain it yourself in one of the user exits (such as time, user name, or date, for example).

Default value for Cash Discount in Material Master (SKTOF)

Hi,
Could anyone please let me know how the default value of this field in the material master can be customized.
Thanks,

SAP told me that this is a hard-coded and that there is no customizing for this field.

PARAMETER ID VALUE NOT DEFAULTED in CREATE MATERIAL MASTER (MM01)

Hi,
Currently when we create material master we like to defualt the field material group, using PARAMETER ID (MKL-Material group).
I have defined the parameter ID for MKL(material group) and assigned a material group value, log off and log in again.
When I create material master with MM01, the PARAMETER ID is not pickup, the field material group is not defaulted with value defiend for the parameter ID.
Anyone know why it did not works, and how to make the material master field defualted with PARAMETER ID??
best rgds,

As suggested by Jurgen Parameter ID wont work for Data Maintenance screens.
You can go for Transaction Variant SHD0 and Set the Field as Default.

Maintaining Numeric Values in Alphanumeric field of Material Master

Hello Everyone!
Currently we are in midst of an SAP Project implementation. The problem arising is that we are using External Number for material codes which has already been used by the business in the legacy system. So the material code field has been set to Alphanumeric data type.
During the data upload of material master a problem has been identified that some of the material codes that needs to be uploaded are number in nature or start with a numeral e.g 1234-5674-9, 1234-9876-D. While creating them the system generates the following error.
Number 1234-5674-9 not defined for material type ICI PNT - Trading Goods
Message no. M3318
Diagnosis
Every material type has a speific number range for external number assignment. The material number you have entered does not lie within the number range for this material type.
Procedure
Choose a material number that lies within the number range of your material type.
Is there a way through which we can maintain such external numbers with Alphanumeric field.
- Best Regards

Hi Khalid,
You assign as follows for external number range to your group
From Number                                      to Number                                                                                EXT
A                                                         ZZZZZZZZ( enter the number
                                                                characters( Z) as required for your client)                                    Tick the Ext box
By this setting you can assign ALPHA NUMERICAL external numbers

Is there a procedure to auto populate shipping instructions on Kanban STOs?

Hello,
The scenario is this:
- intra-company STO (does not cross borders, no billing), type UB, created via Kanban when the bin is emptied
- for this organization, type UB STOs also originate from other sources (ie, conversion from Purchase Reqs), not just originating from Kanban; although for a single material within a plant, Kanban is the method and UB STO is the replenishment strategy
- Shipping instructions (on the Delivery Line Item tab) are a required field when UB STO is created directly, but via Kanban background process the STO is saved successfully without shipping instructions (I find this interesting). This is not a text for shipping instructions, it's the element EVERS, field name EVERS in structure MEP01313.
The problem is this:
- the user (in this case the planner) must go in to manually add the shipping instructions on the Delivery Line Item tab prior to SAP allowing delivery document creation & shipment activities. this manual intervention by the user is unacceptable to the business.
The desired solution from the business is this:
- the business has specified a default shipping instruction that they want (it is configured and ready to go)
Steps we've taken to resolve:
-I first thought of using a purchasing info record. But we cannot use a purchasing info record to default the shipping instructions because this STO is using SUPPLYING PLANT and not vendor as the relationship.
-Then, I thought about maintaining shipping instructions on the purchasing view material master record, but the requirement is to only default these shipping instructions when they originate from Kanban and when the STO type = UB. So I thought it was too broad because it could impact other purchasing functions for the same material, plus the info record doesn't work for supplying plant.
-Now I am thinking about a procedure of some sort to configure to find the correct shipping instructions when material master + STO data meet certain characteristics. Is there such a thing?
-Another option would be a user exit available in the STO to do a check for Kanban indicator and STO type and then to choose the desired shipping condition, but this doesn't seem as elegant as other potential options, and seems restrictive (ie, hard-coding the key for the desired shipping instructions or building a ztable with combinations of STO attributes and desired shipping condition, which requires maintenance).
-Finally, it seems odd that the background creation of the STO via Kanban doesn't trigger a hard error when it checks the document for completeness, rather than saving and getting a document # even though the document is missing a required field. This seems to point to STO user exit as a way to fix this problem.
Your thoughts on the assumptions we've made and the potential resolutions are greatly appreciated.
Rebecca
Edited by: Rebecca Slomski on Oct 8, 2008 7:37 PM

Answered my own question. This may help someone, so here is the answer for version 4.6.
The way to automatically default shipping instructions when the STO uses "SUPPLYING PLANT" instead of vendor is to first configure a purchasing value key that contains the shipping instructions. The path is: IMG>Materials Management>Purchasing>Material Master>Define Purchasing Value Keys.
Then, the material master record must be updated on the Purchasing View with the new purchasing value key.
Cautions to this approach:
1. Even though this is on the Purchasing View, purchasing value key is on the MARA table, so it is not a plant-specific material master setting. One purchasing value key per material master record.
2. The purchasing value key contains settings for reminders and over/under-delivery tolerance percentages. This is interconnected with the choice of shipping instructions. Be sure that the purchasing value key is configured to meet the wide variety of planning needs that could exist at multiple locations where the material is used.
3. Some of the above considerations are mediated by the fact that the material master purchasing value key is over-ridden by specific information contained on a purchasing info record or a contract.

To upload values into material master table

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to upload the changed values in a screen to material master table?

Hi,
Actually my requirement is,there is an update screen.There are many fields in the update screen.When the user changes the value of a partiacular field and click on the checkbox beside it of which he wants to get uploaded into material master table,and click on the execute button,the values should get uploaded into material master table.
Can we upload all the field values at a time into material master table?How can we do that?

Purchase Value Key Influence

When i set the material master as 10 %tolerance , the system is not considering the 10% influence .or it's not getting in to the PO itself ? Why ?Where we can find the partial delivery indicator ?.Thanks for the input ..

Dear all
        We need to set the Pur.value key in configuration & we need to select which Purchase Value key in material master creation.
Following field will be there in Pur.value key in customizing
Reminder 1
Reminder 2
Reminder 3
Underdel. tolerance
Overdeliv. tolerance
Shipping instructs.
Min.del.qty. %
St.del.time var
Also we can maintain the Under/overdelivery in Info-record

Material Master Change Documents

We have currently added additional fields to MARA and I am trying to add the changing of these new fields to the Material Master Change Documents. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?

Dear Khrista,
I hope you are looking for change documents that would be generated whenever specific field value changes when you change material master. It would be stored in CDHDR and CDPOS.
One way is to add custom fields to be considered is to implement a proper BAdi/Enhancement.
Please check this sample program from other thread to find BADI and enhancement for a given transaction code. You just need to create a custom program in your system by cut and paste below codes.

Alternatively, you can do the following:
1. For what ever transaction u want the enhancement .. just check for the System-->status (menu) and find out the PROGRAM name....
2. Double click on to the program name and go inside the program (Abap editor)
3. Search for "Call Customer-function " ... and u'll get some search results .. If u get results then u have enhancement in that tcode .....
4. Then it actually calls a Function module .... copy the Function module name .... go to SE80 (object navigator) click on "Repository Information system" then Customer Enhancements .... Give the Function module name in the "Components" field and click Execute ....
ull get a list of Enhancements related to that Componene....
5. Choose which ever enhancement will suit ur business need ..
6. Go to CMOD... create a project .... assign ur enhancement ... and then code ur logic.... activate ur enhancement in CMOD ....... Ur Buisness need will be solved...
For a user exit......
Finding whether there is any User Exit or not for tcode VA42
1. For what ever transaction u want the user exit .. just check for the System-->status (menu) and find out the PROGRAM name.... ( The program name would be for our scenario "SAPMV45A" )
2. Double click on to the program name and go inside the program (Abap editor)
3. Search for the word "USEREXIT" .... u ll find all the user exits in the search result .. and find ur's then ...
Hope this will help.

Can any body tell me what is the need of creating shipping Instruction

Hi Everybody,
Can any body tell me what is the need of creating shipping Instruction in Material Management & where it is used.
Menu path -> IMG -> Material Management -> Purchasing - > Material Master - > Define Shipping instruction.
2. What is the use of Manufacturer Part Profile & how it is used in the SAP system.
Menu path -> IMG -> Material Management -> Purchasing - > Material Master - > Define Manufacturer Part Profile.

This characteristic describes the packaging and shipping requirements that have to be fulfilled by the vendor
The instructions issued to a vendor regarding the shipment or packing of ordered goods.
o     CO coil
o     NE unpacked
o     NT nylon net
A manufacturer part profile contains indicators and control parameters, which define the conditions for using (inventory-managed or non-inventory-managed) manufacturer parts in the procurement process.
The manufacturer part profile specifies how manufacturer parts (MPN materials) can be used in the procurement process.
The manufacturer part profile is assigned to the master record for a firm's own inventory-managed material.
Among other things, it determines whether:
u2022     The MPN material or the inventory-managed material is to be entered in a purchase order
u2022     Info records can be created for the MPN material or the firm's own material
u2022     The MPN material can be changed during the procurement process

Base table name for fields from Material Master

Hi All,
I want base table name which holds all possible values of following column:
1)Material Master : X-plant matl status from tab -basic data 1
2)Material Master: X-distr.chain status from tab -sales org 1
for example: Base table for Prod.hierarchy is T179/T179T.
Many thanks to all
Yogesh

Thanks Mahesh but I know its value available in MARA table for eery material. But i want to know where all possible distinct values are stored?... In other word, when we click on button which is next to this field and from that list we normally select value and then assign to above fields. Where this list is stored for
X-plant matl status
X-distr.chain status

Want to maintain Material Master fields as default

Dear Friends,
Material Pricing Grp
Product Hierarchy
Acc assignment grp
Item cat Grroup (sales)
This fields I would like to make as default with recpective val.
Let me know if u hav solution.

Hi N Thombare
You can maintain these fields as mandatory in your material master...U must be using field reference i.e. say for eg 0001 or whatever which u can see in T Code "<b>OMSA</b>".......Against that field reference; u keep below mentioned fields as mandator i.e. in T Code "<b>OMS9</b>"........But these will help u to keep these fields as mandatory.......which means w/o entering values; u may not save material master
If required; assign these fields to field groups in OMSR
I hope it will solve your problem
