Reg material uploading

Dear Gurus,
we are havng two plants A & B. We have already uploaded all the datas for plant A and by mistake we changed the materials type. i.e. For ROH we hve uploaded as semifinished material..and the whole process is finished..
Now we are tryng to upload datas for plant B. while uploadng the material, it is not acceptng ROH material. It is telling that roh is semifinished material laso n plant B...now how to change it to roh...? si there any link b/w the 2 plants...kindly suggest?

HI,
Obviouly the system will display this error message, Usually what we do is that once the material codes are created in one plant we extend these material codes to another plant through MM01 itself to other plant keeping in mind the material codes will be the same.
Now you have changed the material type for the material codes generated through the upload. now if you use the same material codes then the system will tell this is not ROH material type.
You have to create a new set of material codes for second plant, or you have extend the same material codes in plant one to plant two with the same material types as well.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran

Shopping cart created for a MDM material uploaded from MARA

Hello,
I need to create an interfase from ECC6 material master (MARA) to MDM1.0
I can not test the creation of a shopping cart for a catalogue material at the moment.
My question is.
Someone know can confirm me if is possible
. to upload to MDM the "MARA" table
. and the SRM shopping cart will be created for a catalogue material (uploaded from MARA, ECC6.0.
AND the purchase requisition created in the back-end (ECC6) will take the MARA material number not a free text.
I think that this is possible, but what do I have to define in MDM? How MDM will reconize the material number to transfer that information from the shopping cart to the purchase requisition?
Thank for your help.
Cheers,
Marta

Reg: material needs the batch management

Hi All,
The material needs the batch management. We have created without the batch
first and the few movements were done, then tried to put the flag after the
stock remove and sales order deletion, however could not process. System
messaged as below in italic. Please let me know how we could change the MM
date for the batch. The sales order alive now.
The batch management requirement cannot
be changed for the following reasons:
SD documents exist (orders or deliveries) that have not yet been
processed or that have been processed only in part.
Thanks & Regards
Siva

Hi,
This was asked in LE forum also, please read this thread:
reg. activating batch management for existing materials
You should fully process the sales documents (sales order - delivery - invoice) or you should delete them and after setting batch requirement for your material master you could recreate the them (SO, delivery).

Error in material upload LSMW

Hi experts
When I run the LSMW for materials upload I am getting this error
"Idoc included in idoc packet containing an error : transfer it separately"
But when I run the LSMW for each material separately it works fine.
Please help me to sort this out.
Thanks
Regards

what I usually do is run lsmw steps up to 'Display Converted Data', then use sxda to schedule and run a background job, If in ECC 6.0 system, see logs in MM90

LSMW - RMDATIND - Material Upload

Dear Experts,
I am trying to us Direct Input Method - 'RMDATIND' for article data uploading but stuck with below error message.
Error Message :
The activity category is not defined
Message no. MG036
Please share your experience to deal with above error.
Thks,

Sapahd,
No, this is part of the update function, it is internal to SAP MMprograms. It would generally mean that your data cannot perform the 'change' transaction that you have specified. To give an example, if you were trying to change a material, but the material did not exist, it might give this type of error.
Again, with very little experience, i have a hard time helping. Generically, you should be able to take the data from your file, and manually execute one transaction, with no errors, and no warnings.
Lets wait for the other experts to weigh in.
Best Regards,

Depo- material upload

We have certain materials (finished goods) which has been imported after paying customs duty, CVD, Add duty etc...this materials do not have purchase orders created in the system. These materials are stored in our depo which has to be uploaded into SAP as stock and then do depo sales whenever we get the requirment from the customer, I have the following queries regarding this process:
1.How can I upload these materials as stock with assessable value and excise duty value in SAP?
2.If purchase order exisit then during GRN the assessable value and excise duty for a material will be stored in SAP, since I dont have GRN then against which document these values will get stored.
Please revert
thomas

In J1IG,
You need to maintain reference document (101/501 or 561)
With vendor details.
Then after entering, select the line item & maintain duties, assessable value etc.
Make sure that your field 'Vendor should be maintained during 501 or 561.

Reg: Material

Hi Experts ,
iam Having material UM529063 ...
Lot of materials are there in which ? iam having doubt on this material UM529063.
Actually when i execute a report.
1. it has to display UM-529063 ..
Here the 3rd character was separated by Hyphen for every time whenever we wil select Material no UM529063.
I Want to display o/p like that i.e UM-529063.
i need the logic of this query ...
Regs ,
Murthy

i think your material no is present in the MARA table is UM529063 but you want to show it as UM-529063 ... if it is so then fetch all the records into the internal table.
now
data : v_matnr1(2),
V_matnr2(6),
v_matnr(7).
loop at itab.
if itab-matnr = 'UM529063 '.
v_matnr1 = itab-matnr+0(2).
v_matnr2 = itab-matnr+2(6).
concatenate v_matnr1 v_matnr2 into v_matnr separated by '-'.
write : / v_matnr.
else.
write : / itab-matnr.
endif.
endloop.

Reg material master price

Dear all,
For a finished material which is manufactured inhouse we are following one process and price is 100 per unit, same material if it is going through another process inhouse it is 150 per unit. in material master if price unit is s. in my inventory there are 100 units which are made through process one, there are 100 pieces which are made through process 2. While doing initial stock uploading for the 200 pieces what is the standard price to be taken.
Thanks in advance
Madhav

Dear Rao,
In this case ,I have few queries.
1.If you want to use mixed costing and if it is going to be 50%-50% for each process means,then use the average price,say Rs
125 while uploading the stock using MB1C and for 561 movement,here you can enter the amount in CC.
2.In case if you are not using the mixed costing concept then its a business decision to be made by the client side people.
3.But generally standard cost estimate is performed before uploading the stock,so that it automatically valuates the material
using the standard price.
Check and revert back with your further queries.

Reg: Material types

H i All,
I have special scenario, a material which is FERT in one plant is sold thru IPT to another plant which would be ROH in the receiving plant ,
In this case how would i treat the material types for the same material code and alo let me know the respective valuation classes.
Reg
VKK

Hi,
I'm not creating two different material type but I would create the material as HALB across the plants and delare the FERT valuation class in the sending plant(i would also delcare it as RG1 in J1ID) at receiving end the valuation class would be ROH's valuation class. Is this right ?

Material uploading

Hi all,
I am facing one Problem while i am uploading the material master, system does not allow the decimal conversion. For an example KG steel rod is equal to 1.2 meters. When i give the conversion like this its not allow. so i give it 10 KG is equal to 12 meters in the Excel sheet. Any other option is there?
Regards,
Venkatesh
MM consultant

Hi,
It is not as easy to solve problems like this, you say "Do onething u check and give the solution" but do you really mean this? I am not sure what you are trying to say?
Go to the material master record and then click on the additional data and for the conversion of KG to metre enter 12 to 10 instead of 1.2 to 1 (or similar)
Don'tr enter decimal places in this conversion, you don't have to, it is a mathematical conversion and so multiply both factors by 10 and the conversion is the same.
Surely this is the solution, you don't need decimal places.

New User M.Senthil..

Hi,
Well,i don't know whether if this helps people here are not.
It is always a good practise to do it via Servlet and then download content.
The adavantage of doing this is
1). You may not need to pack the downloadable with the .war which you ultimately genrate which ceratinly help us in terms of faster deployment.
3). You may update the new content just by moving a file to the backup folder.
2).One may definately download the content irrespective to the content/file.
Hope example below helps..
Configurations:
In the above example we are assuming that we placing all downlodable file in D:/webapp/downlodables/ and you have configured the same path as a init param with the name "filePath" in your web.xml.
something like the one below.
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>DownloadServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.DownloadServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
       <param-name>filePath</param-name>

Reg : material master change history

Hi All.
I am changing the value of the material master characterstic assigned to class under the classification TAB of material master.
I want to extract the last chaged date of the characterstic value.
The material master change history ( Table CDHDR) is not reflecting the changes done to the characterstic value.
Can anybody please suggest me how can i extract the change history of the characterstic value of a given class for a given material.
Thanks
Vijay

Hi
If a field is changed in any transaction with a new values those changes are recorded in CDHDR and CDPOS tables with the field name, Transaction name and field old and new values, changed by and date etc
So you have to fetch the change data history from those tables passing the
OBJECT CLAS = MATERIAl and the Objectid = Material no and fetch the data from CDHDR first and then for all entries of CDHDR fetch the data from CDPOS and use the data and required fields
Regards

Reg material return from subcontractor

Dear all,
We send material to subcontractor using movement type-541, but due to some problem the subcontractor has not completed the job and we need to take stock back from him and we will take with 542 mvmt, our requirement is can we generate an inspection lot for this mvmt type( we need to test material coming from subcontractor)
Thanks i n advance
Madhav

Hi,
I would suggest to post this query in QM forum to get a better help.
However based on my little knowledge on this, you can manually create an inspection lot via QA01. The inspection type would be 08. Maintain this inspection type in the QM view of the material master. Check with your QM personnel if this can meet your need.

Vivek
