System demands Weight unit as a mandatory field in material master

Hello friends,
When I create a material with only basic data view, the system doesnot require the weight unit field(in basicdata1 view) as a mandatory field, but when I try to create a material with salesorg1 view , it makes the weight unit filed as a mandatory field and also populates the weight unit field with the value as "KG" by default. Could any one please help me to find out where I can see the configuration and the default values.
Thanks,
Ramineni.

Hi Ramineni,
Plaese go through the menupath to conttol the field selection in the Material Master just like the fields controlled in customer master. Here you can select the required fields as mandatory, suppress or Required. I believe you need to take consideration of Material Type while doing this.
Spro->Logistics General->Material Master->Field Selection.
Consider the transactions : OMSR & OMS9.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
It is possible to get access to all other fields from within a field exit by using the below code. This is a field exit on GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-grant_type within program SAPLBDT_GMGR but by using the code below you can get data stored in any field within the program. i.e. GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-GRANT_NBR
Field-symbols: <status>.
assign ('(SAPLBDT_GMGR)GMG_HEADER_FIELDS-GRANT_NBR') to <status>.
if SY-SUBRC = 0.
message e003(zr) with <status> .

MM Manage mandatory field in material master data

Hi,
i need to manage some fields in MM01 and MM02 in order to have these fields mandatory if other fields have particular value. For example, if material type is ZFER and Prod.hierarc (in Basic Data 1) is AL001, only in this case i want that field Comm./imp. code ,in view Foreign Trade import, is mandatory.
I'm looking for an user-exit. I find EXIT_SAPLMGMU_001 but with this solution i have a problem. The mandatory of field is active only during saving, on the contrary i would like that this mandatory will be similar to the standard.

Make field in Material master mandatory based on the material group

Hello all,
I need to make the field "post to inspection flag" mandatory based on the material group while creating the Material master.
I found options for making the field mandatory based on Material type,Industry sector and plant NOT based on the material group.
Could anyone please provide suggestions on setting up the field as mandatory based on material group while creating material master
Thanks,
Sre

Hi Sre,
You can make Material Group field as Mandatory while Creating Material Master.
SPRO>Log General>Material Master>Field Selection>Maintain Field Selection for Data Screens
Select Screen # 48
In the Field selection (Field Ref.) of (MARA - MAKTL) screen , Change the settings from Optional to Required Entry for T Codes MM01, MM02 or you can select the Material Type ;
Please note this by choosing this selection the fields of Profit Center and Division will also become Mandatory.
Hope this helps,
Best regards

Set Email as Mandatory field in User Master

Hi There,
Could anyone please tell me what are all the possible options to set Email as mandatory field in user master?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
could maybe a transaction variant (create via SHD0) be helpful? You have then however to also create a "variant transaction" (e.g. ZSU01) pointing to it and remove SU01 from your admins to enforce it.
Advantage is, that this is SAP standard and compatible to any future SP implementations.

Units of Measures found in the material master.

Hi,
What is significance of different Units of Measures found in the material master.
Ajay

Hi,
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

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.

Add z field in material master at plant level

I wanna to assign a new field in material master at plant level..
What settings should be done to do this?
Positive response will be highly appreciated.
Regards

hi,
You can define the field directly via assigning the field to field selection group...This could also be done at industry sector, plant level as well....
Check the path :
SPRO >> Logistics general >> MM >> Field selection >> Assign fields to field selection group...
SPRO >> Logistics general >> MM >> Field selection >> Assign field at plant
SPRO >> Logistics general >> MM >> Field selection >> Assign fields at industry sector level...
For this assign the field to the respective table and then provide it at OMSR...
Assign field selection group to it...
Then in OMS9 give the priority for hide/display/req/optional to field...
If you want this to be added in the new screen, then you have to make the settings under "configure the material master"...
Hope it helps..

Hello Gurus,
The transportation group field in material master is Material specific or a plant specific?? caz whenever i am changing this transportation group field in one plant it is also updating with the same value in all the plant for the common material even though the Company code and Country are different forall the plants.
Hope to hear from you soon as its a very high priority production issue..

The transportation group field in material master is Material specific or a plant specific??
Its material specific. Even if you have multiple sales areas or plants and if you change the transportation group, the change will be applicable for those areas also.
