Attaching u0093material photou0094 on the user tab of the material master transacti
All,
We are exploring a solution for attaching material photo on the user tab of the material master transactions - MM01/MM02/MM03 in ECC6.0.
Please review the questions outlined below from the client -
- Is it feasible to attach a photo of material to the user TAB of transactions MM01/MM02/MM03.
- Whats the performance impact on the online transaction?
- Whats the storage impact of having photo attached to the materials?
- Where and how is the gif or jpg image of the material stored? As a file on UNIX?
- Can a small photo area be added user tab?
- Does this require extensive programming or configuration to achieve this?
- How much of time would something like this require to setup?
If anyone has worked on similar requirements, request you to respond at the earliest.
Regards
Deepthi.Hi Deepthi,
- Is it feasible to attach a photo of material to the user TAB of transactions MM01/MM02/MM03.
Yes its feasible
- Whats the performance impact on the online transaction?
There would definitely be impact on performance. The impact would depend on the Size of the Image file to be uploaded. So you need to do a performance analysis for various Size of Image file & select the one which doesnt have much impact on performance & also has a good quality resolution of image
- Whats the storage impact of having photo attached to the materials?
SAP as such wont have any impact except the additional space required to store the images
- Where and how is the gif or jpg image of the material stored? As a file on UNIX?
You can store it using transaction SMW0
- Can a small photo area be added user tab?
Programmatically yes. It would be a custom container in which you would be uploading the photo
- Does this require extensive programming or configuration to achieve this?
No idea whether it can be achieved through some config. Settings.
Programmatically its possible. Yes, it requires extensive programming. You need to maintain a table with Material No. & photo name. Accordingly you need to build the logic to upload the image. This works mostly on the Class CL_GUI_PICTURE & its methods.
Sample programs
SAP_PICTURE_DEMO
SAP_PICTURE_DEMO_ICON
RSDEMO_PICTURE_CONTROL
- How much of time would something like this require to setup?
Well if the image size is defined, then it should take max. 15 working days to develop the same

Error while creatting the Material Master IDOC in ERP 2005
Hello All,
I am trying to create scenario from RFID-Enabled Outbound Processing - Conf Guide (SAP AII 4.0).
I am using Auto ID 4.0 on a NW04s system. The backend is a ERP2005 system.
The scenario requires that I need to create a material in the backend and send it to the NW04s system using IDOCs.
After completing the configuration on the backend, I tried sending the Material Master IDOC to Auto ID from the transaction AIDMM. I get a message that IDOC is just being created. But I could not find it in the transaction WE02.
On debugging I found that the function MARD_GENERIC_READ_MATNR_PLANT resulted in error.
Thanks for any kind of input.
Regards,
Rahul

Check ABAPer for file settings.
- CANNOT_SKIP_ATTRIBUTE_RECORD : The attributes could not be read in the EPS parcel. The file cannot be opened for reading, because it may have been deleted in the meantime.
- CANNOT_DETERMINE_EPS_PARCEL : The EPS parcel is not in the EPS Inbox, because it may have been deleted. You must download the relevant patch again (for example, Hot Package).
- CANNOT_DETERMINE_DATA_FILES : The name of a data file could not be determined, because a profile parameter was not correctly configured. Check the settings using the report RSPARAM.
- CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_R_DATA_FILE : An R3trans data file could not be unpacked. A possible error source is that the relevant EPS parcel was not found. The data file could not be opened for writing. An error occurred when transmitting a 20K block from the EPS Inbox to the directory /usr/sap/trans/data (UNIX).
- CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_D_DATA_FILE : An ADO data file could not be unpacked. The reasons are the same as with the message CANNOT_DISASSEMBLE_R_DATA_FILE .
- CANNOT_CREATE_COFILE : The cofile could not be created from the relevant data file. One possible error source is that <sys>adm does not have write authorization for the directory /usr/sap/trans/cofiles (UNIX).

MRP TYPE for Periodic planning in the material master.
Dear gurus,
i need planned the materials in the periodic modality, are there the type MRP in the material master for create the planned file ( table MDVM) one once a month or in the specific period chose ?
Example :
I need that the material master don't create a file planned ( MD20- TABLE MDVM) for a change of the requirement situation new , but i would like that the flag in the table ( MDVM) or file of the planning MRP created when the today date is in the period specific.
31.3.2011 (or period 1.4.2011- 10-4-2011)Date for the create a file MRP and after when run MRP planned the material, for others scenary the system must not planned the material.
Are there the MRP type for my problem? Or the customizing setting?
Thanks a lot
DaniDani,
Not sure if MRP type or customizing can help here. And even if we are able to achieve this requirement it will be applicable at plant level.
However, try exploring option of periodic lot size (weekly, monthly, etc). This will work according to period you've set and should give you the results you are looking for.

Units of Measures found in the material master.
Hi,
What is significance of different Units of Measures found in the material master.
AjayHi,
Order unit
Unit of measure in which a material is ordered. It is the default unit in purchasing functions.
Order price unit
Unit in which the vendor invoices you. The order price unit is defined in the purchase order or in the purchasing info record. If you have defined an order price unit in the PO, the goods receipt will be recorded in both the order unit and the order price unit.
Sales unit
Unit of measure in which a material is sold. It automatically appears as the default in a sales order and can be changed there.
Unit of issue
Unit of measure in which a material is issued from the warehouse/stores. You can use this unit of measure in conjunction with goods issues and physical inventory activities.
Any quantities that you specify in a unit of measure other than the base unit are automatically converted into the base unit by the system. To make this possible, you must enter the ratio for conversions between alternative units and the base unit (the conversion factor) in the material master record. You can enter this information when specifying the alternative unit of measure

GTIN & UPC Stored on the Material Master Configuration
Experts,
I am looking for a way to store the UPC code and the GTIN number on the material master in ECC. Like the EAN/UPC field I am looking to know if there is a way to have both the GTIN and the UPC field stored in the same field with SAP calulating the check digit and prefix. If not is there another field on the material master that I can store the value for the GTIN and have a way of storing the additional units of measure GTINs also. Any documentation around the storing of the GTIN / UPC would be appreciative.
Thanks!Hi
GTIN has existed for several years to allow packages of retail items to be identified without going to the detail
of EAN-128. GTIN is essentially prefix indicating package type and then EAN-13 or zero plus UCC-12 (with check digit recalculated)
See http://www.ean-int.org/products.html for more details
SAP does not seem to have defined a GTIN outside of MDM and CRM
We haven't implemented GTIN but do use EAN-13 and other EAN codes. For GTIN I would create a new EAN category as a copy of HE (EAN-13) and create a new EAN number range as 1001000000000 to 9999999999999 and assign the range to
the new EAN code. All this assumes you will assign your GTIN externally. The range copes with GTIN based on both EAN-13 and UCC-12 (=UPC). You see more EAN/UPC fields in material master additional data.

Hi all,
can u pls give the global structure for Upload the material master (All Views Should Be Covered).
Regards,
ravi.hi,
Please go to TCODE SHDB.
Create a new recording with any zname and enter the tcode in the tcode field.
Now it will record all the screens which you encounter during a record creation.
Once it is done, it will take you to the recorded data. Save and come back.
Now select the recording and click on program which creates a program for your recording.
you have 2 options one for transfering from file and one for transfer from recording.
if you use the file options then it will create the internal table with the fields .
incase of tranfer from the recording then it will directly puts the recorded valus which are to be replaced by creating an internal table and replacing the recorded values with the workareas.
Make necessary changes in the code which was generated automaticallly.
hope this is clear.
Thanks and regards. -
New Text in the Sales Text View in the Material Master
Hi All,
I want to create new text ID in the material master sales text tab
Can you please help me in how to create the new text for material master sales text tab view.
Regards
RajeshWell it may not be possible by standard SAP to create in Material.
AN alternative might be to use a standard text type and then call it in your Text Determination Procedure.
T-code "SO10" --> Give "Text Name & Text ID & Language --> Click at "Create" --> On next screen --> Go to (Menu) --> change editor --> Write the text which you want
Go to VOTXN , and maintain the required confirguation to get this standard Text copied to the material during order processing.

Open field for cost center on the material master
We have a unique requirement in a facility we intend to implement plant maintenance in to track a cost center to a material by including the cost center on the material master somewhere. Cost center is not a field on any of the material tabs we use for maintenance materials, but the requirement is just that it is tracked in a field, even if it's just an open field like a "user defined field" or another field not used often. We realize there are disadvantages such as the field not being checked against active cost centers, but we are looking at options short of adding cost center as a field manually to a tab (which I believe would require ABAP assistance). I don't think there are any other fields/tabs we are currently not utilizing but I could be wrong... The best option we can think of is adding it in a material characteristic so it shows on the classifications tab, but I thought I would see if anyone has any other ideas.
ThanksNot sure what is the need of cost center on material master when you want to implement Plant maintenance module. Do you have any specific requirement for this?
Ideally cost center will be derived from either functional location/ equipment (equivalent of material master) on to PM work order or notification.
Can you elaborate the requirement?
After all if you wish to go with cost center, then I suggest it should be at plant level as PM requires plant level distribution. You can add up a custom field and give the reference of cost center data element with help of developer. -

Plant specific fields in the material master for product move
Hi, SAP gurus,
My scenario is we are moving a existing product in US plant to Brazil plant. What are the fields in the material master that are specific to a plant that will change. For ex MRP controller will change from plant to plant. Like that can anybody please provide me a list of fields that i need to be looking at?
Thank you
AnushaHi Anusha,
First of all, list down all your materials those you want to extend to new plant.
a) Secondly, pay attention to those fields you will find "filled" in those materials at plant level.
b) MARC comes handy for you to analyse which fields are at plant level.
Intersection of fields with values between a and b are the ones you need to work out.
Good luck,

Authorisation object for "PO text in the material master"
Hi,
My requirement is as below:
"All users can see the Purchase Order Text as usual, but only a few users should be allowed to create / change the PO Long Text.
For other users, the same should appear in display mode only (both in creation & in change mode, MM01 & MM02)."
Please let me know, How to map this.
As per my knowledge thsi is possible only thru authorisation. But I want to know what is the authorisation object for "PO text in the material master" (Pl note that only for PO text in the material master field). we want control on "PO text of material master"
Regards.
ChinnaHi,
The authorisation object is "M_MATE_MAT", pl check
