Material master data in sap mm

i uploading Material master data in sap mm

1. Master data Master data in SAP is used as a base for any transaction. If you are producing, transferring stock, selling, purchasing, doing physical inventory, whatever your activity may be , it requires certain master data to be maintained. We have material master data, customer master data, vendor master data, pricing/conditions master data, warehouse management master data (storage bin master data) etc. The ones we will focus in MM module are material master and purchase info record.

2. Material Master Data

3. Different types of master data in sap mm: Material master Vendor master Purchase info record Source list Quota arrangement Batch master Service master Condition master

4. Transaction data: Data relating to the day-to-day transactions e.g. Creating PO , PR , MIRO Etc

5. Material Goods or objects that are used, consumed or created during the manufacturing may be called the materials Material can be traded , used in manufacture, consumed and produced A Service may also be treated as material

6. Material Master This is the enterprise main source of material specific data. This data will include information on the materials that a company can procure, or produce, or store or sell. Since there are different departments in an enterprise and each department works on some specific material. So they will enter different information regarding their material. So each user department has its own view of material master record. So, the data screens that are used to create material master can be divided into two categories: Main Data : This will include basic data (base unit of measure, weight), purchasing data (over tolerance and under tolerance), accounting data (standard price, moving price). Additional Data : This will include additional information like short description about material, currency etc.

7. Material Types Materials with some common attributes are grouped together and they are assigned to a material type. This will differentiate materials and allow organization to manage different materials in systematic manner in accordance to company’s requirement. For example: Raw Material, Finished Products are some of the material types. Material type can be created by following the below steps. Path to create material type: IMG >= Logistics General >= Material Master >= Basic Settings >= Material Types >= Define Attributes of Material Types TCode : OMS2

8. Standard SAP Material Types include:   ABF - Waste  ERSA - Spare Parts  FERT - Finished Product HALB - Semifinished Product HAWA - Trading Goods LEIH - Returnable packaging NLAG - Non-stock materials  PIPE - Pipeline materials PLAN - Trading goods (planned) ROH - Raw materials  UNBW - Nonvaluated materials             

9. Material Groups Material group is a wider range of material type. Materials with some common attributes are taken together and they are assigned to material group Path to Create Material Group: IMG => Logistic General => Material Master => Settings for Key Fields => Define Material Groups TCode : OMSF Material group : 9 character alphanumeric Description : 20 character alphanumeric

10. Number Range When we create material master record every material is recognized by a number, that number will be unique and known as material number. We can assign number to material through : Internal (System assigned internal by unit number) External (With alphanumeric combination with in defined interval) External (Alphanumeric number assignment with out check)

11. Define Number Range: Internal number range can be defined by following the below step: Path to Create Number Range: IMG => Logistic General => Material Master => Basic Settings => Material Types => Define Number Range for Each material Type TCode : MMNR

12. Material Master Views: In this section, we will cover all the MM views with the implication on vital processes in standard SAP system. You will see how each of the views is created, its obligatory data, optional fields, and how its creation reflects the system.

14. Material Master Creation Material master contains all materials that a company procures produces or sells. Material Master is a central data that is available at all the levels. Material can be created by following the below steps: Path to create Material Master: Logistics => Materials Management => Material Master => Material => Create Material TCode : MM01 Note:  For any create transaction we use 01, for edit 02, for display 03 as suffix.

15. Material master comprises : Configuration Field selection Basic settings Tools Enhancements

16. Industry sector : Branch of industry.   The industry sector groups together companies according to their activities (for example, plant engineering and construction, mechanical engineering, the chemical industry, and the pharmaceutical industry).   Table-driven program support is provided according to industry sector; for example, for the selection of data fields on-screen, for the sequence of the screens, and for the allocation of a material to a material type.     Industry Sector :   Key that specifies the branch of industry to which the material is assigned.   Use When you create a material master record, the industry sector you specify determines   which screens appear and in what order which industry-specific fields appear on the individual screens.

17. Basic Settings: Define output format Material Number: Path : SPRO -> Logistic - General -> Material Master -> Basic Settings -> Define Output Format of Material Number TCODE: (OMSL) Lexico graphical Leading zero’s

18. Maintain company code for materials management: Path: SPRO -> Logistic - General -> Material Master -> Basic Settings -> Maintain company codes for materials management TCODE: (OMSY)

19. MM-FI Integration: Maintain company code for material management Setting up company code for material management Changing ABP (or) DBP

20. Define Attribute of system messages: W ---> Warning message (yellow) E - --> Error message (Red) I ---> Information message (Green)
