Reference Article in IS Retail
Hi All,
Whats the difference between creation of reference article type & the remaining article types. Do we need to maintain anything different settings for reference article type.
Regds,

Hi,
Reference Articles are assigned to Merchandise Category. You can assign a merchandise category reference article to every merchandise category. You can then use it as a template when you create articles. A reference article can be assigned to more than one merchandise category.
The merchandise category reference article is a template for all articles created in that merchandise category. The merchandise category reference article is automatically determined from the merchandise category when the new article is created. You can override this merchandise category reference article by specifying another article as a template.

How to Create Merchandise Category Reference Article in IS-Retail system
Hi Experts,
Is there any separate Tcode to create Merchandise Category Reference articles in IS-RETAIL system.
Whether Merchandise Category reference article is created as normal article in MM41 only?
Whether we can assign any of the article that is created in that merchandise category as reference article in WG21 (or) is there any separate Tcode to create Reference articles.
During Retail Implementation projects, how Merchandise Category reference article are handled???
Any Input is highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar.MHi,
With Tcode WG21 u can create MC ref. article. It is a way to create MC ref article. No need to use MM41.

Merchandise Categories and reference articles in Retail Customers
Hello Retail friends,
I want to use your client knowledge as a reference to my clients implementation.
My client is implementing IS-Retail and as a result we are creating MC's to the different departments in the company.
As we all know, MC's has reference article attached to help the creation and change process a bit easier.
My question is as such:
I need to keep specific information on the MC level that does not exist in the MC (Class 026) - do you have any suggestion on where to use it other than in the Reference article of the MC?
Another question is: in other client implementations, does every MC has a unique reference article or does the reference articles shared through out the hierarchy?
Thank you in advance
IdanHi there,
Merchandise Category is not exactly a data retention level but a data accumulation level. If the intention is to look at sales and stock values at MC, yes we can do it as article su-total roll up to MC total and as correctly mentioned in the previous post, you can use characteristics to hold different attributes of article as master data for articles.
Again, creation and assignment of Ref article for every MC is not mandatory and a single article can be used for more than one MC as reference article if you are just holding very basic information on it which you believe, will be common for all the articles under these MC's. Just create MC ref article for one of the MC and for the rest, just assign it manually (or if the number is higher, just create a small BDC, won't take more than 5 min to do the job of this assignment.).
I believe your query is answered well, award points accordingly.
Cheers

Article created via ARTMAS05 and M.C. Reference article - Listing View
Has anyone ever encountered the following scenario and resolved it? We are creating articles using ARTMAS05 IDOC. We have reference articles assigned to the merchandise categories. The reference articles have the Basic, Listing, Sales, Logistics Store and Logistics DC views extended. The ARTMAS05 is created so as to extend all of those views when the IDOC is processed. The created article has all the views extended, but the Listing view is the ONLY view where none of the values from the reference article are copied into the created article.
If I add the Listing view values to the E1BPE1MAW1RT (and RTX) segement of ARTMAS05, they are passed to the article. Yet, I don't have to do that with the other views so it does not make sense for us to do that.
I am very interested in learning whether or not there is a solution to this issue as nothing we do appears to fix this. (Other than custom development.)
Thank you.
DaliaHi Anisha,
In IS-Retail, you need to maintain Logistics DC and Store View of Article Master.
To overcome this, you have two options.
1) Maintain Reference article in Initial Screen of MM41
2) Otherwise Maintain reference article for MC in WG21.
You create one reference article with Basic View, Listing, Logistics DC and Store View Details.
Use the reference article, while creating new Article master in MM41. Its not even required now to maintain Logistics Dc and Store View for New Article. For new articles system copy's the logistics details from reference article.
Carry out Listing in WSM3 Tcode.

Hi
I am new in Retail, having few question in reference site, and reference article. For example, if I input reference DC and store in WSS1. If I change any information in reference site or store, will the existing site copy from reference site also get update?
Also if I input reference article in merchandise category, if i update the information in reference article, will the existing article get update ?
thanksHi Jojo,
No need to send the EDI profile to POS. You need to configure the partner profile in SAP using transaction code WE20. In this profile, you will have to map inbound and outbound message type to enable data communication between Store and POSHQ.
Apart from partner profile, you also need to configure the Inbound and Outbound profiles and assign to store. You may have to set distribution model (Transaction BD64) to distribute data from SAP to other systems.
Please search SCN for detailed Inbound and Outbound details and POS Integration.
I hope this will help.

In Material type maintenance you can control at all if a store will be value only inventroy managmenet or both.
Further in the Site master WB02, you can control it on MC level.

Follow-Up and Replacement Articles in SAP Retail
Hi everybody,
Iu2019m using SAP Retail and I need to maintain Follow-Up and Replacement Articles.
Iu2019ve created the Follow-Up Categories in the customizing and Iu2019ve assigned replacement article to the original article in transaction WRFFUART.
Does anyone know how the subsequent process works? If I create a Purchase Order or a Sales Order to the original article, does the system automatically replace it by the replacement Article? Iu2019ve tested this but there was no substitution.
Thanks in advance,
SNHi Barbara,
I am analysing the functions for Follow-Up and Replacement Articles in SAP Retail ECC 6.0 Ehp. 3. I created Substitution profiles (SPRO: Logistics u2013 General -> Material Master -> Retail-Specific Settings -> Settings for Follow-Up/Replacement Material -> Maintain Follow-Up Categories) and assigned replacement article to the original article in transaction (WRFFUART). I also activated Substitution Processing and Start Replacement logic in Background (SPRO: Logistics u2013 General -> Substitution Processing -> Activate/Process Substitution Processing).
I tested the process steps you posted (ME21N, VL10B, WSUBST_WORKLIST). There was no automatically substitution after creating the outbound delivery. And the transaction WSUBST_WORKLIST just shows u201CNo data available for selectionu201D.
I analysed the application and found the table WSUBST_WORKLIST. It handles the entries for substitutions. It was empty. When I fill the table manually with data and run the WSUBST_WORKLIST the outbound delivery and the purchase order have a new position with the follow-up article but the original article is still there, unchanged.
Why did the substitution not start automatically in background and why is the original article still in the purchase order and outbound delivery?
It is also interesting, that the material quantity changed. The purchase order includes five units of the original article and the substituted article has a quantity of eight. I guess the reason is a rounding value for procurement.
The ERP 2005 documentation on help.sap.com ([Assigning Follow-Up and Replacement Articles ERP 2005|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_02/helpdata/en/a2/7c936660dc4da09a3a1d08ee7eeca2/frameset.htm]) describes a conversation factor for the units of measure of the original article and substitution article for each assignment. In the ECC 6.0 documentation ([Assigning Follow-Up and Replacement Articles ECC 6.0|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/a2/7c936660dc4da09a3a1d08ee7eeca2/frameset.htm]) this is missing. In the system I also could not find any type of conversation factor for Follow-Up and Replacement Articles.
Is this option not available in ECC 6.0 or where can I find it? -
Listing tab missing in Merchandise reference article (ECC 6.0)
Hi gurus,
When we create a article through MM41, on listing tab there are 3 subscreens,
The last screen Listing Tab which has Execute listing button is not appearing when creating a merchandise reference article.
What we want to achieve is when user creates an article for a specific article type, we want Maintain assortments manually to be ticked on always by default.
If any more information needed, please advise,
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Gopio.Hi,
Merchandis Reference Article cannot be listed. Therefore, there is no "Execute Listing" Button available.

Reference Article - Merchandise Hierarchy assignment
I cannot find how to assign a Reference Article to a higher level node of the Merchandise Hierarchy. The docmentation mentions in several places that this assignment is possible, but I can only see how to assign these articles at the lowest level.
I would appreciate any assistance you can offer,
Regards
ChrisHi Chris,
as far as I know, you can only assign a reference article at the lowest level (merchandise category) of the merchandise category hierarchy.
You can assign one reference article to several merchandise categories - in the end, if you assign a reference article to all m.c. of one node, you have the same effect as if you could assign the reference article directly on the node (even if you cannot do that in one single transaction).

The reference article in question says "Manually manage music and videos" but I only have the option to "Manually manage videos" via the iPad on iTunes. How do I actually manage music?
Edit: classic Apple.If you post from a a question from the bottom of an article's page then you should get its reference, e.g. HT1535 in your case, on the post's title. The ability to edit you post only lasts for 15 minutes and allows you to correct/add extra info.
I get the 'manually manage music and videos' tockbox as described on that article. If you only 'videos' then are you using iTunes Match on your iPad ? I don't use it but I've seen posts that say having it enabled on a device can affect the syncing of music. -
Reference article of file "RGBsrc.pf".
Hello experts,
Reference article of "Where do i download file "RGBsrc.pf"";

New Color Classes: A Programmer's Palette of Color

By Monica Pawlan

ICC profiles (for example, RGBsrc.pf) are created by persons expert enough in color science to represent the color space of a device (monitor, printer, or scanner, for example), or a particular color conversion process.
import java.awt.color.*;
float[] ciecolor, rgbcolor;
ICC_ProfileRGB RGBpf =
ICC_ProfileRGB.getInstance("RGBsrc.pf");
Where do i download file "RGBsrc.pf". Please help me .Thanks to you. bch
bchbSo I tried it out just for kicks... The *.icm file is a ICC_Profile type but not a ICC_ProfileRGB type...
ICC_ProfileRGB IccProf = ICC_ProfileRGB.getInstance("C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM32\\SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\COLOR\\E772c.icm");Generates this error...
C:\Java\SomeDir>javac ICCTest.java
AddUp.java:18: incompatible types
found : java.awt.color.ICC_Profile
required: java.awt.color.ICC_ProfileRGB
ICC_ProfileRGB IccProf = ICC_ProfileRGB.getInstance("C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM32\\
SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\COLOR\\E772c.icm");
^
1 error
C:\Java\SomeDir>But compile file if I do this...
ICC_Profile IccProf = ICC_Profile.getInstance("C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM32\\SPOOL\\DRIVERS\\COLOR\\E772c.icm");So, at least now I know that *.icm works with ICC_Profile but not ICC_ProfileRGB which I guess you need the *.pf file...
Now, back to the castles...

Handling of Hazardous Articles in SAP Retail
Hi SAP Retail Experts
Would like to know the porcess in SAP to configure the hazardous goods management in Article master whereby we can accomodate the dangerous goods data from and external system into Article Master.Dear Pratim
I don't catch your question. Check e.g. SAP Environment, Health, and Safety Management (SAP EHS Management)
1.) the term "Dangerous Goods" and Hazard substance" is not the same
2.) In EHS classic you can get external data for DG use using ALE; same is true for hazardous substance master
I have no experience with SAP Retail. But according to SAP help: This is a SAP ECC/ERP system in a "special" mode (you have activated an "industry specific" function). So you need to prepare EHS customizing
