Restrict Material Master View

All,
I have a role to view material master data which contains tcodes MM03 / MM04. I would like to prevent the users from viewing Accounting & Costing views.
Using object M_MATE_STA and the appropriate values in the STATM field this has worked correctly for MM03. However, via transaction MM04, change documents can be viewed for accounting and costing despite the restrictions in M_MATE_STA - I would like to prevent this.
Running system trace (ST01) I have found MM04 checks for M_MATE_STA, but never looks at the specific values in the field STATM.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so what possible solutions have you considered?
Thanks!

Restrict material master information at the field level

We have a requirement to restrict change access to certain material master fields, meaning everyone may be able to view the data but not change it. Beyond that, those people who are allowed to change the data can only change certain fields...other people can change other fields (on the same material master view). For instance a simple example would be that someone might have access to change the material description on the basic view but not the material group. Someone else might have access to change the material group but not the description. (Again, this is just a scenario that I'm using as an example, not as a real live case.)
Is it even possible to do this? I'm guessing it's not but I thought I'd ask the "experts" here before I deliver the bad news to our users.
Thanks!

Thank you for the information but I was aware of using screen sequence and field selection however how can I use this to allow certain users access to certain fields but not others.
For example in the Basic view I want one set of users for the same exact material to be able to change the Base of Unit Measure while the other user can only view this field but not change it however this user can change the other fields in the Basic view. This sounds like a solution for all fields for a particular materials. I need to be assign fields within a view to different users.

Material Master views for every material type

HI Expertis,
I am facing to the big problem. My requirement is to identify the Material Master Views relevent to the each and every Material Type.
As an example, for the material type "FGTR" what should be the required views to create material master?
From the MM01 Txn i found 36 Material types. Also found the standard views in "OMS2" Txn. But in OMS2 txn it gives me almost all the views in material master.
Atlease i hope to categorize the material types which are going to use same material views. So i can ask abaper to develop it.
these are the required Material types : MODE, FGTR, WETT, KMAT, LEER, LGUT, FERT, FOOD, INTR, CONT, IBAU, HERS, NLAG, NOF1, UNBW, HIBE, VERP, FRIP, PIPE, FHMI, ROH, LEIH, HALB, DIEN, ERSA, HAWA
I would be gratefully thank u, if u can guided me on this matter.
Thanx & Regards,
Rashika.

Hi,
You can ask your abaper to write a small program by using table t134(T134-PSTAT) and T132T .From this tables ,for each material type, you get all views.
User department Maintenance status
Work scheduling A
Accounting B
Classification C
MRP D
Purchasing E
Production resources/tools F
Costing G
Basic data K
Storage L
Forecasting P
Quality management Q
Warehouse management S
Sales V
Plant stocks X
Storage location stocks Z
hopw this will help you.

Creating Material Master views

Hi Experts,
I am writing a program to upload material master views.
From that program i am getting the file as output and by using RMDATIND program(Direct input program) i am uploading that output file to that program and creates the material when it does not exists and if the material exists it will check the particular view that i want to upload.
In doing this i got one question that, i am checking the field VPSTA in MARA table for the views that are created to that material.
That field contains the values as EDALS.
E for PURCHASING VIEW
D for MRP VIEW
A for WORK SHEDULING VIEW
L for GENERAL PLANT DATA
S for WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT VIEW
I want to know the characters for the other views also.
Can any one give information for that views.
Thanks,
Kruthik.

Tax Code in Material Master views

Hi,
I want to know in which view we can find the details of "tax code " for the material in Material master views?.
Also suggest me where else we can find the information of Tax Code for the given material.
Thanks

Hi,
you cannot get the tax code in material master. In material master we mainatin tax releated information in Foregin trade import and to get that contaol data tab in material master you have to do some config.
After mainatining the data in material master tax code is maintained in FV11 in case of taxinn and in case of taxinj tax releated data is to maintaiin in J1id and different tax code has to be created with the help of FTXP
Plz let me know if any further information is required

Fields in material master views related to costing

Hi All Gurus,
In Material Master Views
Can you suggest the fields or indicators according to MM point of view,
which should be given or indicator to setting on.
Rgds
Ana.

Hi,
For accounting view.
If material is FERT or HALB: -
Enter valuation class,
Price control as "S"
Standard price(If you have run costing for FERT & HALB then not enter standard price because at the time of costing run system calculate standard price of product).
For ROH, VERP, ERSA etc...
Enter valuation class,
Enter price control as "V",
Enter moving average price.

Hi,
Follow the path below:
SPRO --> Logistics - General --> Material Master --> Configuring the Material Master
Here you can maintain the Mainscreens, Secondary screens etc..
SPRO --> Logistics - General --> Material Master --> Basic Settings --> Material Types --> Define Attributes of Material Types.
here you can activate the Material Tab Pages with refernce to your Material Type.
Hope this helps..

Material Master Views Authorization

Hi All,
I'm trying to restrict some views of the material master for some users. I've read that is possible to limit these views by the maintenance status of the authorizations but itit doesn't work for me. can you help me?
I am using "SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY" role in order to restrict all the views except Warehouse Managment. So, I put the maintenance status of the WM view to display and nothing else with the others. Is it wrong?
Is there any other way to do what I want?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi All,
I have made a copy of the role SAP_ISR_MATERIAL_DISPLAY and I have changed some setting in order to hide some views of the Material Master for the user. It has worked finally but doing this the user doesn't have authorization for other Transactions Code of WM like LS24, LT*, etc... So, I guess, I have to merge some roles and/or authorizations or I have to create an own role to pack everything I want for this user. Anyway, this is another issue...
Thank you very much for your help, your answers have been very useful.
Best Regards,
David

Vinith,
I have explained in great detail exactly what you need to do at every stage. The steps I have outlined are the same that I follow every time that I want to apply material type restrictions.
I strongly recommend that you contact your security admin to help with this, alternatively engage the services of a trained/experienced security admin who can come on site and go through this with you.
If you have done the following then it will work:
1. Assign auth group to material type via OMS2
2. Verified that check for M_MATE_MAR is active
3. Ensured that M_MATE_MAR does not contain the auth group/s which you assigned via OMS2 (that includes *)
This is the last comment I will make on this topic.
Cheers

Updation of Material Master Views

Dear All,
I am facing a design problem in creation of Material Master.
A certain user group creates X,Y,Z views in MM01 , MM02 but the other views data which would be of relevance to other users needs to be updated based on certain conditions like Material Type etc.
Eg : PLM user making Basic Data view .
 FI views and Sales View to be created automatically for other users.
The issue is this updation of data in other views which is of two categories :
i) if material type = 'abc'.
 MRP profile = 'fgh'.
ii) if material type = literature.
 then plants = '1111', '2222' , '3333' etc....
Regarding i):-
This data can being updated in a user exit , eg 'MGA00001' called in MM01.
But it doesnot allow to change any other structure other than WMARA where as we need to update data for WMARC, WMBEW, WMVKE etc.
Regarding ii) :-
How can I create material on many plants while the material is under creation in MM01 ?
How can i) and ii) be cracked ?
Pls give solutions asap .
Rewards are sure for helpful answers!!

Shweta

Create Material Master Views in mass-change

Dear All,
We have to add a additional view to the material master of some products.
Is this possible to do as a mass change (ex. MM17) or have we to do it with transaction SCAT/ MASS?
Do you know an other solution?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Thomas

Hi,
Use
LSMW using standard SAP provided RMDATIND program- check with ABAPer - You can extend all views or you can pick and choose selected views.
or
BDC scripts - If u have only 1/2 views extended use this.
Mass change doesn't help.
Hope this helps

Field in Material Master views

Hi SAP Experts,
I have the following issues.
1. How can the field "Material grouping" in Work Scheduling View can be made also available in General Plant data / storage 1?
2. In OMSR, there are fields MARC_MAEX, MARC_MKAL,, MARC_NOTE. These field are not assigned to any field selection groups. How can I make them to be available for use? I know how to assign them to FSG. But I could n't find them in Material Master? where these fields are placed in MM?
Need your quick inputs.
Thanks
MK

Hi,
Those fields were not available in SAP. For reference purpose you can use those fields, but you will not expect the functionality which u r getting in your legacy system. normally e will not be using all the material master fields. You can use any one of the non used field for this purpose.

Material Master Views

What are the two views that are automatically created when we create a material.

Dear,
Two View,
1) Plant Stock : - In which system display view Plant stock in current period and also in previous period and also general view.
You can see stock detail with this view at plant level.
2) Stor. Loc Stock: - In this view you can see stock detail at storage location level.
This two view is automatic generated after creation of material master
