X-Plant Material status.

Hi All,
X-Plant material status means that we define a status saying that the material can be procured or blocked or not blocked.
configuration path:-IMG Path: Logistics General -> Material Master -> Settings for Key Fields -> Define Material Statuses.
My question is. these material status are created by us from the path mentioned above, but how does it stop the procurment.
Please explain in detail.
Regards,
Ramya.

Hi,
If you are connecting between the systems this problem will araise.
Material will be defined as per the product life cycle.The X-Plant status telling us where the item or material in the product life cycle.
Based on the definition and design of the materail in the life cycle we can defined the items as described below:
In general we have list of statuses and their meaning in the life cycle of the product
X-Plant status - Meaning of that number
01 - Obsolete
03 - Hibernate/standby
05 - Discontinue
10 - Concept
11 - Pending production
15 - Engineering model
20 - prototype
30 - o-series
40 - serial production
45 - project production
50 - specila production
55 - phase out
May be nubers will be changed as per their convinient and industry specific but the statuses of the items is same .
Hope this will help to understand the concept of X-Plant status.
Thanks

  • Update the x plant material status and plant speific material status

    HI Experts,
    I am new to abap. In my requriment i want to update the status of x-plant material status (MSTAE) in MARA  and
    plant specific material status (MMSTA) in MARC. In master data the status of those fields is blank. Insted of balnk i have to upload '01' or '02'.
    using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA  i am unable to upload. its not working.
    is there any another way to upload that two plants status.
    thanks in advance

    Hi martin,
    i think insted of it_*** (internal table) we have to use work area. please make sure conform this one.
    i am giving my logic wat i have written and my requirement also...
    The process to update material master data status is described in 'xxxxx' Mark and Release Cost Estimates and BAPu201D.
    u2022     As a result of releasing a standard cost, certain master data elements need to be updated by the Cost accountant in order to enable further activities within SAP.
    u2022     All material codes for which Cost Accounting has released a new standard cost, need to have their Material Status indicators changed from 02 (reviewed) to 03 (released).  This removes the system blocks on certain activities within SAP like purchasing, production and Sales.  The status will be needed to change in two views of the Material Master. 
    u2022     The u201CX-plant matl statusu201D field on the Basic Data 1 view
    u2022     The u201CPlant-sp. matl statusu201C field on the Costing 1 view
    This update should be automated
    Select materials for which a price change document was posted based on selection parameters.
    Select price change documents for company code defined in selection screen since last run date
    u2022     Reference procedure = PRCHG (MLHD-AWTYP)
    u2022     Entered on MLHD-CPUDT u2013 verify against last run date to include in selection
    u2022     Entered at MLHD-CPUTM u2013 verify against last run date to include in selection
    u2022     Store last run date and time by company code, so that it can be picked up in the next run. (store in table TVARVC?)
    Select only the documents of plants which belong to the company code in table MLIT. The link between company code and plant can be found in table T001K.
    u2022     Valuation area = Plant MLIT-BWKEY
    u2022     Create a list of all materials MLIT-MATNR
    The next 2 updates should happen independently;
    u2022     Update the u201CPlant-sp. matl statusu201C field (MARC-MMSTA) on all plant views belonging to the company on the Costing 1 view to status 3 with as prerequisite;
    u2022     The current plant material status is 02
    u2022     This action must be done on all plants belonging to the company code
    u2022     Update the u201CX-plant matl statusu201D field (MARA-MSTAE) on the Basic Data 1 view to status 3 with as prerequisite;

  • Cross plant material status

    Hi,
    cross plant material status is " client depandent ",or " indipaendent" ?
    regards

    Hi
    I believe that "Cross Plant Matl.Status" is <b>Client dependent.</b>
    <b>Reason:</b>
    Cross Plant Matl.Status is a field in Material Master which should either be created in different clients or upload it individually. When we change any field in the material master there is no Transport Request generated and so this is Client dependent.
    Please correct me if i am wrong.

  • Material Status Report

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there any standard report for Material status.
    we are maintaining the status in OMS4.
    which we are using in Material Master like
    Blocked for procment/whse
    Blocked for task list/BOM
    These statuses for a particular material, i would like to know from any standard report.Pls suggest me.

    Hi
    The material status tells you whether a material is subject to restrictions, and what they are. For example, a material may be a part under development or one to be discontinued. The use of a material can be restricted in a number of ways:
    The material can be blocked for use in certain business activities by assigning one or both of the following material statuses to it:
    <b>Plant-specific material status</b>
    In the standard material master, this field appears on the Costing screen, MRP screen, Production Resources/Tools screen, Purchasing screen, Quality Management screen, and Work Scheduling screen.
    <b>Cross-plant material status</b>
    In the standard material master, this field appears on the Basic Data screen. It is valid for the whole client.
    <b>There is no standard report available for Material status display.You need to develop new report for this.Simple you can copy MM60 program RMMVRZ00 and this field in the same develop new program</b>. or
    You can get details from the table level.
    For cross plant status (Client level)
    Field: MMSTAE  and Table MARA
    For Plant specific
    Field: MMSTA and Table: MARC

  • Material status blocks creation of reservation in SRM

    Dear All,
    We observe the following behavior in our SRM (5.0) System:
    If we create a caddy for a product that has the Cross-Plant Material Status : 04 (Material master, view Basic Data 1) in the Backend-System, the reservation can not be created. There is a message indicating, that it is not possible to purchase the product.
    If we create the reservation for the same product direct in the Backen-System, there is no problem.
    This is OK, if we do external procurement, but internal procurement should not be blocked in SRM.
    Do you know where we have to customize this message?
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas
    understood.
    not possible to purchase the product --
    is it having a purchasing view in ECC .
    If you did not pull this materials in to SRM , how can you procure from SRM web portal.
    first you need to select this material via internal goods and services in the srm web portal . then only you can order a material from SRM.
    if you pulled a material from ECC to SRM and it must be in COMMPR01.

  • Material status in material master

    Hi,
    We have different type of statuses that can be maintained in material master like -
    Distribution-chain-specific material status
    Cross-distribution-chain material status
    Cross-Plant Material Status
    Plant-Specific Material Status
    The settings for these are maintained as part of configuration.
    Is there any possibility to further add some more control parameters in the statuses through development or customising?
    regards,
    Mohit

    Hello Mohit ,
    What kind of control you are expecting through the material status ? We can do config and maintain new material status through the t-code OMS4.
    Just to mention few of the control few  of the control we can do from there are Message/Error if independent requirement is created for material , Message /Error if material is used in MRP, Message/Error if material is used in production order header, Message /Error if material used in WM transfer reqmt/posting change etc etc .
    There are other plenty of option there which you can explore.
    I hope the information helps
    Cheers

  • Material status in PO

    Experts,
    If I want to exlude / influence the material status (blocked for purchasing with error) check in PO type UB (Stock Transport Order), how to go about it? Is there a standard solution? This order type is used only for transfering stock within the company and not to purchase. It does not make sense to block this order type.
    Also, are there user-exits / BADIs to influence it? Would appreciate your inputs.

    Dear,
    I think you are getting error while creating STO for some material & trying to reectify that error.
    If my assumption was correct plz proceed like below,
    Check Material master MM03 - Basic 1 view >X-plant material status> Blocked for procurement(01)
    If avail plz take remove it.
    Also check MRP1 view...there is also an option to block the material for procurement.Plz remove it also
    Then create STO,

  • Storage location material status

    Hi,
    I wanted to ask if anyone knows if / how can we maintain storage location - material status.
    I mean to use the same functionality of plant material status which determines which of the logistic processes a specific material participate in.
    We need the same thing but at storage location level. The reason is, that at some times several storage locations are going through a (physical) change, e.g. redecoration.. and we need to "block" them for some processes like, stock transfer, purchase requisitions... and so on...
    Regards,
    Doron Oded.

    Hi,
    Well, thanks for your answer, but it is insufficient..
    We need to block the storage location for processes which are not necesseraly manual, like MRP, ATP, and in places where there is no check at storage location level - Logistic execution (deliveries, shipments), Purchasing... and so on..
    If for example, a storage location is damaged due a storm, or any other act of god (or man).. We need to block it to all logistic processes. The question is - what is the best way..?
    Thanks,
    Doron Oded.

  • Reporting Material Status

    Dear All,
    I would need help in solving my issue: I have to make a report on Materials (for given markets) to see which one of them is LIVE (is still used) and which one is not used. I found 3 categories for 'Material status' in Material Master:
    -     Cross-plant material status
    -     Cross-distribution-chain material status
    -     Distribution-chain-specific material status
    My problem is that I don't know which one to use to define the STAUS of the given Material.
    Can anyone help me in this??
    Thank you in advance,
    Anita

    you missed a forth field: plant specific material status.
    you said you have to create a report on Materials (for given markets) to see which one of them is LIVE
    how do you know these markets from your material master? can they be identified by sales org, dist. channel and division?
    if yes, then you can concentrate on the sales statuses (distribution-chain material status)
    a status can be customized to restrict certain activies, but can as well be defined just as pure text without any restrictions.
    if you want use sales statuses for your report purpose, then make sure you are not in conflict with your SD consultant who may want to use the sales status differently.
    a Cross-distribution-chain material status effects any combination of sales org, dist. channel and division, while a 
    Distribution-chain-specific material status effects only one combination (the one where it is maintained )

  • Material Statuses based on the Purchase order Document type

    Hi Experts,
    We need to maintain the Plant material status based on the purchase order document type.
    Example - If I am using NB for normal purchase orders and ZB for STO procurement then, there should be a material status which should give warning message - 'do not use ' for ZB STO purchase orders and it should allow to create NB purchase orders for that same materials.
    Please advise what are the possibilities?

  • Synchronize Material Status and Distribution Status

    As we have assigned (in our concept) one distribution status to one material status, we want to ease the maintenance for the users so that they only have to set the material status. The distribution status should then be adapted automatically (for both cross-plant and plant-specific status).
    My idea was to create a report which maybe runs nightly and sets the distribution status according to the material status.
    Has anyone made experience with that and give me some hints on how to do that well?
    Thanks for your contribution!

    Hi Mohan,
    I am talking about the material master. You can set both status there. What I want to have is that
    -x-plant material status is always equal to x-plant distribution status
    --> MARA-MSTAE is always written to MARA-MSTAV
    -plant-specific material status is always equal to plant-specific distribution status
    --> MARC-MMSTA is always written to MVKE-VMSTA
    Best regards

  • X-plant matl status

    Dear All,
    Will blocking material thru "X-plant material status" in MMR(for a particular transaction) cause problem in entering goods thru MB1C. Since I'm getting this error "No posting can be possible for this material type". If no, what the thing I would be missing to configure? I tried on OBYC but it's in Display mode and I'm unable to trace any relevant info.?
    Regards
    Samier

    Dear JC/SK,
    My issue is that after all necessary enterprise structure assignments and creation of relevant MMRs, when I go to MB1C and try to enter material XXXX into initial stock using movement type 561, this error mentioned earlier comes. I've also ticked both Qty/value updation for material type in OMS2 and even I tried thru checking only one of them, one by one but to no avail.
    Where am I going wrong?

  • Material status at plant level

    Dear Guru's,
    Please suggest the material status or any other solution for blocking material for planning i.e. there should be no PR, planned order or sales order. But that status should not create problem while mass level changes for BOM, Routing, DMS.
    Status 90 in MRP 1 creating problem while applying mass level changes. Also tried 00 & 01 but they are allowing to create sales orders.
    Regards,
    SAP CONS

    Hi,
    Go to OMS4 & check the statuses & their values. Choose the one which meets your need. If none suits, then create one.
    You can prevent a material from being part of MRP run, while allowing to be in BOM by setting B & blank or A respectively.
    Revert if you face any issues.
    Regards,
    Vivek

  • Material Status field in Material master

    Hi,
    This is regarding Material Master.
    Where can I find field Material Status (MARA-PSTAT) in Material Master??

    Different views of material master when maintained are given a unique ID such as:
    Work scheduling - A
    Accounting - B
    Classification - C
    MRP - D
    Purchasing - E
    Production resources/tools - F
    Costing - G

    Quality management - Q
    Warehouse management - S
    Sales - V
    Plant stocks - X
    Storage location stocks - Z
    MARA-VPSTA- MARA is the master table for materials and is at client level. VPSTA tells you all the views that have been created for the material. and Plant Stock and Storage Location stock views get created automatically.
    MARA-PSTAT - tells you the views that have been created manually.
    MARC-PSTAT - tells you the view created manually, relevant to Plant
    MARD-PSTAT - tells you the view created manually, relevant to Storage Location data (Storage)
    MBEW-PSTAT - tells you the view created manually, relevant to Finance (Accounting and Costing)
