Restricting the material types in MM01

Dear experts,
Our client is using few materila types like-HIBE,NLAG,ROH
We have upgraded from 4.6B to ECC6. Now many other material types have come .
While creating material in MM01,selecting the required material type among the many is inconvient.
1)One way of removing the unnecessary mat types is deleting others in OMS2,
The other way of restricting is --
2) I can enter the authorisation group in OMS2 for the required material types and i can assign to M_MATE_MAR object in the required role, but it is not working
Do i need to create authorisation group in any customisation for entering in the OMS2, because what i entered in OMS2 is not displaying in PFCG of the authorisation object under authorisation group.I have checked in SM30 also ,the same authorisation groups under T134 table are updated. Even though,mat types are not restricted in MM01 under material type field.
Please suggest any other way of restricting the display of material types in Material type field of MM01 instead of deleting unwanted the material types in OMS2 transaction
Regards,
Dayanand

You can use the material type specific transactionsminstead of MM01, remove the authorizations of MM01 transaction and add the required material type creation transactions
example - Goor Matreials create(special)
HIBE,NLAG,ROH
MMB1                 Create Semifinished Product(HALB)
MMF1                 Create Finished Product(FERT)    
MMG1                 Create Returnable Packaging       
MMH1                 Create Trading Goods              
MMI1                 Create Operating Supplies(HIBE)        
MMK1                 Create Configurable Material(KMAT)   
MML1                 Create Empties                  
MMN1                 Create Non-Stock Material         
MMP1                 Create Maintenance Assembly      
MMR1                 Create Raw Material(ROH)              
MMS1                 Create Service                   
MMU1                 Create Non-Valuated Material      
MMV1                 Create Packaging             
MMVH                 Create Centrally: Decentral.Shipping
MMW1                 Create Competitor Product

  • Is it possible to hide a certain material type in MM01?

    Dear All,
    Is it possible to hide a certain material type in MM01? 
    We would want to restrict  the users from creating a material by using certain materials type.
    regards,
    Shetty

    You have two options, either remove the assignment of number ranges in MMNR or block the user from using it via authorization.

  • ME21N - restriction by Material Type

    Hi Team
    I need to restrict ME21N by Material Type.
    The only authority checks set are:
    M_BEST_BSA
    M_BEST_EKG
    M_BEST_EKO
    M_BEST_WRK
    In SU24, M_MATE_WRK, is set as follow:
    Check indicator: "check"
    Proposal: "no"
    How I can use this object to restrict by Material Type? ABAP coding is needed?
    Thanks in advance and regards,
    Andrés Sananes

    Hi,
    you mentioned article type but object M_MATE_WRK controls access on site level. Anyway, if ME21N performs check for this object then it will be executed. Hence I would suggest to run authorization trace to see which checks are executed. If check for your object is not there then there is standard BADI for POs that can be used to add additional authorization checks. So it will require some coding but not much. It's quite straight forward.

  • Defining Material types in MM01

    Dear All,
    I want to know how to define material types. Here client needs to bring same material under inventory and non inventory.
    Example
    1.100 is one material number.some times they required to bring the 100 material into stock and some of the times they want to book the material 100 in direct consumption account after taking GRIN.(no issue posting)
    Now how could i define the material type for material 100.
    Thanks
    Shobana

    Hello Shobana,
    If your client wants to post the same material some time as inventory material and some time non-inventory material then you need not to define any new material type, but this can be handled at transaction level.
    - Create Material as normal material with MM01
    1. When you want to stock this material in inventory :
    Create the purchase order without any account assignment so when you receive material it will post to inventory account and you will be able to keep that as stock material
    2. When you want to post this material in directly to cost account (direct consumption) :
    Create the purchase order with account assignment (i.e. cost center, assets) so when you receive material it will directly post this material to cost account but not to inventory account and you will not be able to keep that as stock material
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    System will not bring alphanumeric number of materials automatically during MM01.
    Check use exit MGA00002 - Material Master (Industry): Number Assignment.
    Also check 2 Function Modules:
    EXIT_SAPLMG02_001 - Customer Exit: Internal Material Number Assignment
    EXIT_SAPLMG02_002 - Customer Exit: External Material Number Assignment.

  • How can i restrict the Expenditure Type values at a specific OU ?

    Dear Guys,
    I would like to ask about the Expenditure Types,
    I have implemented two projects for different Operating Units ,
    when navigating to any Projects responsibilty,and navigating the Expenditure Type field
    the values exist are all the values implemented across the OU not the values entered at this OU
    How can i restrict the Expenditure Type values at a specific OU
    Regards
    Amr Hussien

    Hello
    When you set up a project there is an option called Transaction Control.
    This option allow you to list the allowed or restricted elements of costs for the project.
    You may enter the transaction control on a project template and that will be copied to any new project.
    The cost elements may be expenditure types, expenditures categories, suppliers, employees, etc.
    In your case, I suggest to set up specific project templates for each operating units. On each template enter the list of allowed expenditures types for that OU.
    Doing so, the system restricts users from entering any expenditure item, supplier invoice, purchase cost etc, against an expenditure type, which is not allowed.

  • How do i get the material type after submitting a create material request?

    Hi All,
    I have to select an agent depending on the material type of the material being created? I'm not using the rule based workflow for material creation in MDG 7.0, I'm using WS46000057. How do I get the material type being used in the workflow so that I can create a rule and select an agent accordingly from a custom table.
    Any kind of help would be sincerely appreciated.
    Regards,
    Tushar..

    Why not use the rule-based workflow template?
    Where do you want the material type? This is a standard workflow template and I'm not sure you can enhance it.
    In any case, in order to read CR details, you need to use the MDG API classes. These are described in this document: Master Data Governance Application Programming Interface Guide. Keep in mind that different API classes were developed for different releases so make sure to pick the class right for your release.

    Give them in MARA to get their material types

  • Change the Material type & Material industries

    Hi Expert,

    Material code : "XYZ"
    Material Type : FERT
    Industry sector: Chemical industries
    I want to Change material type & Industry sector.
    Please help me how i change the  Material type & Industry sector.
    Best Regards
    Shashi Singh

    Hi
    I want to Change material type & Industry sector.
    Changing the material type for a material is possible as it has been well explained by other friends
    It is because a semifinished goods  one material type  can become a finished goods another material type
    Changing the industry sector is not possible at all
    Once industry sector is assigned to a material you cant change it at all

  • How to clear the PPC balance to change the material type?

    Dear experts,
    Our customer need to change some material type (valuation class as well) from semi-finished product to purchase part. It uses Product Cost Collector for semi-finished/finished product and never makes settlement for any PCC.
    To change the material type through MMAM requires zero stock and cleared PCC balance. So we removed the stock of the semi-finished product and settled the PCC for every month of this year.
    Since the products could have entry this year and last year, even if we settled their balances of this year, it still can not be changed the material type.
    And we do not know how to settle the PCC balance of last year because only one field YEAR can be entered on screen KK87/CO88. If I enter settleme period 11, posting period 12 and fiscal year 2007, system will give error "Period 12 is not allowed".
    But we happend to find one product has no entry this year but has balance value of last year. Its material type can be changed w/o any errors, which seems last year balance has no impact material type change. I get confused.
    Can any one advise whether I'm wrong and where?

    Hi Sharan,
    Matl Povided to Vendor stock will appear in Subcontracting scenario.
    If at all you have given some material to a subcontractor , this will be consumed automaticaly when you will recieve the ordered material from subcontractor.that is 543 movement will take place in the backgroung when u do the GR.
    In case if u need to clear the stock u can do 542 and take the stock back to unrestricted.
