Uplaoding material master with LSMW

Hi,
I want to create new 1000 material , i want to know the process for uplaaoding sales text and purchase order text is it possbile with normal recording or for text uplaoding i have to folow different procedure,
regards,
zafar

you should never load materials by recording method. Use standard/direct input method, BAPI or IDOC method.
Material master is too dynamic to use a static recording.
However, in any method it is possible to load texts.
Texts can even be loaded with an extra LSMW import method after material master load.

I have uploaded Material Master thr LSMW but Materials are not saved.

Hi
i have uploaded Material Master through LSMW but unfortunetly Matreials are not saved in system.

Hi
Check first with one record you are able to create the material Manually by using tcode MM01.
Or Rerun the batch Input in Foreground mode so that you can see the error or whether Materila no is created
I do not think so any test mode in Batch Input session.
Check the Log in SM35 for your session if you have any error messages.
Hope it helps

Report For list of material Master with PO text

Hi all,
I need a report whether it is available in Standard SAP or a customized, for List of Material Master with their PO text.
If any one can help, please reply to this theard.
Regards,
Kapil Kulkarni

To get the material number combined with the PO text you will need the help of an ABAP programmer. The programmer can create a report for you using the function module READ_TEXT in the function group STXD. The tables to use are:
STXH - STXD SAPscript text file header
STXL - STXD SAPscript text file lines
The selection screen should have at least the following:
OBJECT - STXH-TDOBJECT
NAME - STXH-TDNAME
LANGUAGE - STXH-TDSPRAS
TEXTID - STXH-TDID
You find the information for these fields by going to the PO text entry screen and displaying the header information under Goto -> Header. For materials, the object is MATERIAL, the name is "material number", the language is "EN", and the text ID is BEST. You can use this program to get long text in lots of places like information records, purchase order texts, etc.
Hope this helps.

Material Master upload - LSMW direct input method - Internal Number problem

Dear friends,
I am uploading material masters with LSMW - Direct Input Method.
The materials have internal numbers.
I have four plants and I want to extend the same material in all plants.
But LSMW is creating a new material for each row.
Is there any way out or any indication I put in file to repeat the internal numbers created for all other plants?
I can create another LSMW for material extension. But I want to know whether the problem can be solved in the current LSMW?

I want validation while creating material master with profit center

Dear Experts,
I want validation while creating material master with profit center.
If 0001 plant having 100100 profit center
0002 plant having 200200 profit center
Material A cant be created for 0001 plant for with wrong profit center 200200.
Kindly help & provide me solution clearly

Hi,
Profit centers are assigned to controlling areas. And controlling areas can have many plants under them. So as long as both the plants and profit centers are in the same controlling area users will be able to extend the materials.
You should put in your validation control in the material master user exit. One of the exits you can use is
MGA00001 Material Master (Industry): Checks and Enhancements

LSMW datamigration material master with multiple distribution channels

Hi,
We plan on using the LSMW to migrate our customer's material master to a ECC 6.0 system.
Currently we use the BMM00 and BMMH1 structures, but there I can specify only one distribution channel.
Does anyone know how to include multiple distribution channels in LSMW material master migration?
Thanks in advance for your support.
Edited by: Mohammed Qasim Malik on Jan 21, 2008 10:01 AM

you need an extra record in your source per distibution channel.
Alternative you can create the extra record with a small Abap code in LSMW in section __END_OF_RECORD__
There you habe in standard the code:
transfer_record.
just add after this statement a statement that gets the additional wanted distribution channel into the distribution channel field.
BMM00-VTWEG = 'xx'.
transfer_record.

Material master with profit center

Dear All,
Pl advice me regarding following - (Version - ECC 6.0 with Doc Splitting Active)
The client is into Engg, Construction industry. We are having Project System. There are around 20-30 projects going on. Client wants to track receivables / payables on Each Project along with the Profit & Loss Statement for the project.
1) Decided to create each project as a Profit Center.
2) Problem is with material code & plant.
3) To track material / vendor transactions Project wise - EACH Project can be created as a Plant. So we can maintain Plant wise data for each material & maintain the Profit Center in Plant Data.
But we want to avoide creating Number of Plants. Instead planning to create only One Plant & create number of storage locations = number of Projects.
Here the Material / Vendor Transactions will be posted (in General Ledger view) with Only common Profit Center maintained in Material master.
Can we overcome this? Can we derive the Project wise Profit center some where from Srorage location or any other area (using substitution etc) without affecting sanctity of Document Splitting Function?
Pl help. This is very important.
Thanks,
mukesh

Hi
The basic purpose of having plants is to have different valuation area. Unless you define your project sites as individual site how you are planning to handle the inventory/procurement/payment of each project separately. ForvBalance sheets you need to have plant for each site. Moreover Storage Locations are virtual and does not help you in balance sheet calculation. materials can be extended to all plants with individual prices and other unique values as ity differs from plant to plant if not all at least price will vary.

Material replication with LSMW and R3AC1

Hi experts.
I'm using SRM 5.0 trying import the materiais from backend R3.
I'm doing material replication using LSMW with batch-input of R3AC1, however after I mapping R3AC1 the transaction behaves diference way. Using other screens weren't mapping.
Anybody Knows how I can change de Batch-input mapping ? Or other way to make this replication?
Thanks.
Paulo Afonso Cordeiro.

any special reason for using LSMW?
there is readymade CRM middleware available in SRM which acts as interface to get the cust objects(matl grps) & business objects(matl /service masters)
but you need to make some table settings & site settings for this
filtering can be done for matl/service in R3AC1

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
