ENHANCEMENT IN MATERIAL MASTER

THE SAP MATERIAL MASTER TO BE ENHANCED. DOESNOT SUPPORT TRADING SCENARIO AS VENDORS MATERIAL NO IS NOT HANDLED APPROPRIATELY.
VENDORS MATERIAL IS LINKED WITH PURCHASE ORDER WHEN BUYING FROM THAT VENDOR.
VENDORS MATERIAL IS LINKED WITH SALES AS CUSTOMERS KNOWS THE IDENTITY OF VENDORS MATERIAL NO.
BEST REGARDS
PANKAJ

Hi,
It doesn't quite work like that.
The descrip[tion relates to the "client" level and so is the same for all plants and storage locations etc.
The idea is that if the material is called something differently at each plant then it should be a different material master record.
The idea of a material called (as in your example) "Drink" is too high level.
What would be ideal would be to have one material called "pepsi" the other called "coke" etc. but then use classification to link them both to a class called "drink" .
that way if you want to see all drinks you can select the class "drink" and see both items.
This gives you the high level and the detail level you need.
But in a direct answer to your question, no you can't have plant specific descriptions.

Enhance Material Master with custom tables

Hi MM Gurus,
I would like to enhance the material master data (transactions MM01/2/3) with a new tab (screen) containing some customer fields and Z tables?
Ive been looking the follow <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/ff/516a6749d811d182b80000e829fbfe/frameset.htm">SAP Help link</a>, Integration of New Tables in the Material Master, and SAP Note 44410, but still is not very clear to me how to achieve my goal.
Can anybody tell me all the steps that Ive to perform to do that?
Do you know any other documentation about this issue, like a how-to guide for instance, that I can use?
Thanks a lot for any help!
Alexandre

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest that you do not do this unless you ABSOLUTELY have to.
It is not a major modification but there is another more standard way to add fields to material masters and no modification or user exit is required.
Simply classify the materials and use a characteristic for each additional field you want to add.
The classification system is very flexible and very powerful and so it can easily handle complex data and interactions with other data. You can add multiple classes and so use whole groups of data. There is also a lot of standard validation as to field contents etc. (Including tables of possible entries etc.)
So please do consider using classification first (even if you already use classification of your materials). You can also then use the standard search functions on any of the new "fields" .
No ABAP, No modification and available now !
Worth considering?

What is the concept of view in material master?

Hello sap gurus
Some quetions regarding Material Master
what is the concept of views in material master ?
what is determined by specifying industry sector in material master ?
To sell material which views are material are maintened in Material master?
Regards
Amit

Hi,
Material master for finished ggods is related with SD, MM & PP departments. If you carefully go through the various screens in MM record you will realize the importance of the respective fields and the department to which they belong.
1.Suppose Base unit of measure in Basic data 1 screen. The production people will keep the stock of the item using this UOM.
2. In Sales:Sales Org.1 screen we have sales unit in which we will sell the material.
3. Then we have the plant data in which we enter the delivering plant. Also the taxes are determined from the plant so we have the settings for taxes also - whether this material is fully taxable/50% tax/Tax exempted.
4. Then we have purchasing screen in which the data like the purchasing group, variable units,etc are entered. This will effect the purchasing cycle when we are procuring a material from outside. This is related to MM.
5. The we have MRP, this is related to PP as to how to manufacture the product, the MRP type, the strategy group - whether it is MTO/MTS like that.
5. Sales:Sales Org.2 screen - Here we mainatin the account assignment group which is very important as far as the generation of the accounting document is concerned. This triggers the system where to post the value in which G/L account. Accounting document is generated when we create the invoice in VF01 & save it.
6. Work scheduling - Related with the sceduling of the production as to whether underdelivery or overdelivery is allowed, the storage location
7. Quality - Here you can select for a particular finished item where where it has to be checked for quality during its journey from the raw material stage to the finished goods store as a finished item.
8. Accounting - Related to accounting, product costing, total value of the stock in hand, etc. Also related with FI & PP
So all the screens have data which effects one or more modules for the proper functioning of the system to give the optimum results.
Industry Sector:
Key that specifies the branch of industry to which the material is assigned.
Use
When you create a material master record, the industry sector you specify determines
1. which screens appear and in what order
2. which industry-specific fields appear on the individual screens
Screens for Sales:
Sales:Sales Org.1, Sales:Sales Org.2. But other screens also have data which is related to sales. You cannot just maintain the sales views and save the master. It has to be properly linked with the other modules also for the proper functioning of the system. That is why the system is called as "Enterprise Resource Planning" You have to paln the resources of your company and these resources are related with all the modules.
Reward points if solution helps.

Material define for shipping in material master.

Hello,
My client is used the trading goods process,they have to imports the goods.They want to define the material shipping as initial phase in material master,it has to come by sea or air,requirement is that they define the material in purchasing in material master so that it come in po that will change if material is come instead of sea or vice versa. Is there any possibility to define shipping in material master and this tab come in PO to change it.
Please provide the solution how to solve this requirement.
Regards
Rahul

Hi Rahul
Material master is does not control route of the material where as vendor location does... explore the option of Purchasing info records ... I think Inco-Terms most frequently used to identify that material coming by Sea, rail or road etc
I would not recommend to meet this requirement using material master.
Thanks,
Jagdeep

Material Master - Urgent

Hi Abapers,
There is an issue needing resolution relating to the functionality for handling UPC codes and GTIN numbers on the material master record.
we need to carry both the UPC code and the GTIN codes on the same record. The UPC code is typically a 12 digit number and the GTIN code is the same number of length 14 by adding two leading zeros.
SAP is checking numbers being entered in the EAN/UPC field on Basic Data 1 screen of the material master record (MARA-EAN11) as absolute number only i.e.., its considering 49000024661 even if we give 00049000024661.
How can we maintaing leading zeros for this field. referred OSS note: 545520 but couldnt find any solution.
Please suggest as what need to be done inorder to maintain leading zeros as well. how can we achieve this?
Does it require abap coding or functional configuring?
Please do the needfull. Points are sure for all usefull answers..
Thanks in advance...

View's in the Material Master

Hello,
With regards to the material master data:
(a) are there more views to a material that are dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
(c) why does the basic data depends on the plant?

Hi Shadmi!
Here is d answers,
a) are there more views to a material that are dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
        --- Except Basic Data1 and Basic Data2 all other views are plant dependent.
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
        --- Because these datas may vary plant by plant. For example cost of material may change from plant to plant since it depends upon in which price the vendor is supplying to you.
(c) Why does the basic data depends on the plant?
       --- Not at all. Basic data view is specific to company code level.
Cheers,
Yuvi.

Material Master for Maintenance material

In regards to a Material Master for a Maintenance storeroom Material, On the MRP 2 tab there is a field called Safety time/act.cov.
What is the difference between that and the planned delivery time of a material. I have tested both and they appear to do the same thing in materials planning. Can you tell me the differences between these 2 fields
Thanks

HI Yocoma,
The first difference I can site is that is in Workdays whereas Planned Delivery time is in Calender Days and is based on past experience

Cleaning & archiving material master

hello,
I am going to start project where one of the tasks will be cleaning material master.
My client system version is 4.7
Can you suggest and documentation on procedures and tools provided by SAP for this purpose?
Thanks & regards,
Andrzej

Archiving the Material Master
Transaction SARA contains all the SAP archiving objects for all the SAP R/3 applications modules. All the SAP archive functions are shown in SARA. Choose the corresponding SAP archive object, hit enter and the archive administration menu will be shown. Provided here will be an example on how to archive the SAP Material Master.
Archive a Material Master Record
When a material is no longer required in a company or plant, you can archive and delete the material master record.
You have to Flag the material master record for deletion. This is known as logical deletion.
Before a material master record can be archived and deleted, other objects (such as purchasing documents) that refer to this material must themselves be archived. You can see which objects these are and the dependencies between them in the network graphic.
If a material master record cannot be archived and deleted at a given organizational level, the reason is given in the log (for example, a purchase order exists for the material). The log also contains technical data such as the number of material master records read and the number deleted.
Some of the archive error log message :-
Costing data exists
Use in routing
Use in sales and distribution
Use in bill of material
Delivery exists
Costing data exists
Info record exists
Purchase order exists
The Archiving steps :-
Archiving object MM_MATNR for archiving material master records.
You can display the archived data, but not reload it.
To archive the material master, first goto transaction MM71.
Type in a variant name and click Maintain. (Tick the Test Mode for archive simulation).
Save the variant.
Maintain the Start date and Spool parameters and click execute.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the archive status.
To do a permanent delete, goto transaction SARA and click Delete button.
Maintain the Archive Selection, Start date and Spool parameters.
Click Test Session for testing or click execute to start the deletion program.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the delete status.
Now, if you goto MM02/MM03, you will not be able to find the record in the material master.
