  • Guideline for Using 40 Char in Short Text Field of Material Master

    Dear Experts & Forum Members,
    In MM01 while creating a Material Master record (spare part) we need to fill in Basic Data. It has a field known as "Short Text Field " This Field has limitation of 40 characters. This is the same field which has Searched associated with it. This description is what we see when we look for Stock Overview of Material in the Stores through MEMBER.
    To use this 40 characters efficiently people usually come up with a guideline so that maximum and meaningful information crucial information for identification of spare part/material is VIEWED when we see it.
    For example for an AC Motor the description may look like
    *MOTOR AC SQ 100KW 1500 RPM 8P CLA FRXYZ
    which describes AC Motor, Squirrel Cage Type, 100 KW, 1500 RPM, 8 Pole, Class A, Frame Size XYZ
    Request the forum members to provide / share any guideline they might have come up with to use these 40 characters to describe different spare parts.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards

    Now we have information of Purchase order text for all the material.
    Is it possible to upload the Purchase order text using LSMW.
    Some friends were telling that LSMW is not possible for Purchase Order text.
    Can anyone suggest how I can upload this purchase order text for all 1000
    material using LSMW program.
    /if not LSMW is there any other method to upload it
    thanks in advance

    Dear Deepak,
    there is standard direct upload i believe
    go to lsmw
    Execute 1st option
    then inLSMW:Object Attribute screen
    in standard batch/ direct input
    firsr radio button
    select object 005
    and method 003
    Program name RSTXLITF.
    Then go by normal process i.e source field , field mapping...
    In this way u can also upload Text in the Material master.

  • 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..

  • Transportation group field in Material master..Sales/Plant data tab.

    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..
    regards
    Rikinl

    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.

    execute OMSR,
    position on field MARA-WRKST
    click the button field selection  right of selection group
    you will now see which fields are assigned to the group
    and below you see in in which field reference the group is set to hidden.
    field reference is a multi usage, it can be for material type, for transaction, for industry .
    so you have to check at least the settings for your material, for the transaction where you get this effect and for the industry you material is created with.
    further there is a customizing transaction OMSA, which is plant specific field selection, and I guess that causes your effect.
    open it and see which selection group is assigned to it.
    then go back to OMSR and see what status is assigned to this field reference.

  • Initialize some fields in material master with default values

    Hi,
    I would like to initialize some fields in material master MM01 with default values.
    for exemple in the view MRP1 there is a field MRP type I would like to initialize PD in the field as default value.
    but when I go to the technical information there is no parameter id that I can use in SU3.
    Do you know how I can the initialize the field those don't have parameter ID?
    thank
    Dede

    Dear Glenn,
    This is possible in SAP for this use T code MMD1 and create MRP profile and assign this MRP profile while creating material using MM01 in the organisation level put this created MRP profile. The values you maintained in this profile get copied to the material by default.
    To maintain MRP profile go to MMD1->give your profile name...........> click on  selection screen push button--->give here profile description--->select what MRP  field which u want to make fixed one/default. if make fixed later you can not change--
    >click on data screen 1 push button and maintain your value and save

  • Maximum number of fields in material master

    Hi,
    Could you please help to understand how many fields can be added in material master Tab.
    Example - If we create new material master tab as additional data and would like to add some fileds in that tab, is there a limit we can't add more than certain number of fields.
    Please advise how many cloumns can be added as well in one tab.
    Example
    Material master additional data Tab (New)
    feild 1 description field 4 description field 7 ......
    field 2 description field 5 description field 8 ......
    field3 description field6 description field 9 ........
    I think the fields should be assigned to feild selection group which is reserved as for Z fields
    Please confirm if my understanding correct for Z fileds
    211-240 Reserved for customers
    As I think only 20 field can be assigned to field selection group but My question is can we assign more than one filed selection group to one material master tab. I mean to increase the number of field to be added in new additional data tab can we add 111-120 Reserved for customers and 211-240 Reserved for customers to one material master additional data tab.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    For add fields to material master, check Note 44410 - Integrating cust.-specific fields in matl master (and related notes).
    Other note useful to understand the range of customer names in SAP: SAP Note 16466 - Customer name range for SAP objects.
    I hope this helps you. If you need something else, let me know.
