View's in the Material Master

Hello,
With regards to the material master data:
(a) are there more views to a material that are  dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
(c) why does the basic data depends on the plant?

Hi Shadmi!
Here is d answers,
a) are there more views to a material that are dependent on the plant except for: 'costing', 'Forecasting', 'MRP', 'Production Resources/Tools', 'Purchasing',' Quality Management' and 'Sales'?
        --- Except Basic Data1 and Basic Data2 all other views are plant dependent.
(b) why are they dependent at the plant?
        --- Because these datas may vary plant by plant. For example cost of material may change from plant to plant since it depends upon in which price the vendor is supplying to you.
(c) Why does the basic data depends on the plant?
       --- Not at all. Basic data view is specific to company code level.
Cheers,
Yuvi.

  • 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
    Rajesh

    Well 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.

  • Accounting & costing view in the material master

    hi
    my client wanted to block the accounting & costing view in the material master for the end users
    what i need to do

    Hi,
    You can (Authorization material master by views of accounting & costing ) achieve this by way of authorization control. In transaction PFCG, select your role for creating / changing the material master. Select option Maintenance statuses. Then at change status option select views that you want to give the authorization to the users. Create profile & save the role. Now assign the role to the users. They will get only those views you have selected. You have to select those views in all the roles related to material master (create, change, display).Better Consult Basis Consultant,

  • Currency in the  Accounting View of the Material Master

    Hi everyone!
    The accounting tab/view in the Material Master has currency in the General Data tab. In our case, the currency is defaulted to PHP. I found the field in SPRO but it is non-configurable. Is there anyway I could it in other SPRO field so that I could configure it to changable currencies (for example, I wanted to change from PHP to USD, etc.)
    Thank you so much.

    It will be Picked up From the Comp Code Currency..
    As the Plant is assigned to Comp Code, when you create the Material for that Plant ..
    It will pick up from  the Comp Code Currency..
    You can check Comp Code Currency  in OBY6 trxn..

  • Label Data view in the material master

    Hi all,
    I read this SAP help portal that said "The Label Data view in the material master allows you to display or  edit label data that is specific to the material. "..
    may I know where I can find this view in the material master?
    Thanks
    Karen

    Dear Karen,
    This "Label Data" is one View in Material Master.
    While creating the Material using T.Code MM01, when you are on the Selection screen of Various views, it is Last Option.
    i.e. Lable Data
    If this view is not there while creating the Material. then it is MM Configuration.
    That view is assinged to Material Type.
    See in Material Master, Industry Sector and Material Types controls these Views. So with the help of MM Consultnat you
    have  to get that View Configured to your Material Type.
    If you find my answer satisfactory, please grant me the points.

  • Deleting QM View in the material master

    Hi
    Is their any way we can delete the QM view in the  material master , once it is created
    Thanks
    JJ

    Hi
    Deleting a QM view is not possible
    what You can do ...is Deactivate all Inspection Types that you have assigned by QA08
    or do mass changes using MM17(MARA & MARC) and remove all fields.
    It is as good as removing QM view.
    Note:
    u can  set deletion flag at plant level or client level. ONce u do that u can delete that particular material from that plant using sara transaction . But note that all view at that plant level vl be get deleted
    so better to make it blank

  • Help needed in seeing the material master.

    Hi all,
    How can i see the sales area info in a system. i.e. what material is assigned to what sales area, the mapping between the sales org., distr. channel, division and plants? I ask this because when I see some tabs/views in mm03, it asks me the sales area info and I dont know what to give there.. so in effect i get to see only some views in the material master.
    Thanks,
    Charles.

    Hi Charles,
       If you want to know all those materials which have a Sales View, you can go to
    MARA table and search for all those materials that have  a 'V' in MARA-PSTAT field. Later you can use MM03 to see the sales data for that materials.
    Procedure:
    se16 transaction.
    Give V in PSTAT field n selection criteria. and execute.

  • Legacy number in the material master

    Dear SAP Guru,
    Good day.
    We are currently in production support today and we want to understand how a legacy number differs from a material number. As we can see in the material master (Classification View) there is an indicated legacy number there with a corresponding value. Could you further elaborate on how and what is the usage of a legacy number?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Kind regards,
    JMT

    Jasmin,
    Basically some clients would be interested to track the SAP material number with referance to the Legacy material number, this data would be uploaded during the Cut-over and data conversion to SAP.
    I would suggest you look at the Functional/Tehnical specification document for the conversion program which was used for uploading the material master data into SAP, that would give you the business reason and the field mapping details.

  • Service Level in the Material Master

    Hi -
    Can the service level field in the material master MRP view be used to drive additional demand independant of safety stock?  Meaning, is there any way I can enter a service level and have it increase demand even if I am not using it to calculate safety stock?
    Thanks

    I do not think this is possible. Service level is usually used for safety stock planning.

    Diagnosis
    The system found that you have defined your own valuation classes for sales order stock and project stock in Customizing. However, these valuation classes have not been maintained in the material master record for the materials concerned.
    Procedure
    So that the relevant accounts can be posted upon goods movements, you have to maintain the valuation classes for sales order and project stock in the accounting view of the material master record for the material concerned.
    If you have authorization to do so, you can change the material master record.

    Hi,
    The normal valuation stock refer to relevant table valuation class field MBEW/MBEWH-BKLAS
    Special Sales Stock refert to MBEW/MBEWH-EKLAS
    Projeck Stock refer to MBEW/MBEWH-QKLAS

  • Update of cost in the material master

    Hi all,
    From the purchasing point of view,In the normal process Cost in the Material master gets updated from purchasing documnents automatically.In this case,manually if the cost is changed in the purchase order affects the cost in the material master.My requirement is this should be done automatically after receiving the vendors confirmation of list of material costs.There may be chance of change in the cost of the materials.so the costs of the materials which were changed should get updated in the material master automatically(VPRS).
    Ie changing of the costs of the materials in the purchase order should be reduced .How this will done??
    If we have more than 2000 line items in the purchase order,it will be quite little bit difficult to update each material cost in the purchase order .
    Thanks in advance..
    Regards...VM

    Hi,
    Normally material will be valuated with two types of price controls S -standard price and V-moving avaerage price.
    A std price as its name indicated it is std and will not chnage.
    A moving average price will chnage accordingly with the change in the material price.
    Normally it will be better create a info record for the material and vendor combination for the plant or purchase organisation with a info update indicator in the purchase order will serve your pupose .
    With the proper settings at SPRO system creates info record during creation of PO if it does not exist or updates the existing record if it has one with the latest price details in the form of last purchasing document so that these details get defaulted during creation of PO.
    However you can create a outline aggrement so that a PO can be created with reference to that.
    Or you can create a condition record for the price for your combination so that it can get defaulted.
    The price which is there in PO will not be defaulted to material master.
    Or time to time you can review the prices and maintain via MR21.

  • Wrong procurement type showing in the material master

    Hi,
    I am creating a material Procurement type is comming as E in the MRP2 view, To where it is comming?
    I have checked the material type setting in the tcode OMS2 and it below are showing there:
    Ext. purchase orders   2
    Int. purchase orders   2
    Hence it's allowed int. and ext. proc. then why in the material master procurement type is comming E not X.
    How can I change it?

    Check to see if you have assigned an MRP Profile which has defaulted Procurement Type. If this is the case, you will have to remove the MRP Profile before you can change the entry. Or you can maintain the MRP Profile by deselecting "Write-protected in material maintenance" and selecting "Only default value in material maintenance" for Procurement Type. The Transaction is MMD2.
