Overview
A material master is required for a material.

A material needs to have additional department views created.
A new material is to be used in a production process.
A material needs to be extended to another plant.
Requirement for Valuation of material in the Material Master.
A need to define a Production Resource / Tool as a Material.
Business Process Description Overview

Material masters are created when a material required is not defined in the material master. Control of
master data depends largely on how each company sets up its Organizational levels - centralized or
decentralized. Some material data is valid for all organizational levels while other data is valid only at
certain levels. (i.e.: client, plant, sales org., etc.). All functional areas of the system use the same material
master data. The material master data is defined in individual screens (departmental views) that can be
added as needed. Thus a material can be created with only basic data and other departments can add
other information later as it becomes available.
The views possible for material are controlled by the material type selected.
For a material to be used in the system it needs to be created for each plant. Multiple views of a material
are possible but at a minimum, the material needs to have a description and a base unit of measure
assigned on the basic data view. Additional department views (i.e. Accounting, Sales, Purchasing, MRP)
can be added at a later time by extending the material. As additional plants are added, a material will
need to be extended to the plants before it can be used there.
A Production Resource / Tool can be defined as a material if purchasing and inventory functions are
to be carried out for that PRT. The information required to be input is dependent upon which
department views are being created. Thus, material master information is typically entered at
different times by numerous system users. Note that to add a view, the Create Material transaction
is used rather than the Change Material transaction.

MM COURSE: MASTER
Tips and Tricks
If no other view exists, you must enter the base (standard / inventory) Unit of measure and
a material description.
Using a reference material (similar characteristics etc.) saves a lot of effort as all the views
will
be copied over and can be changed or overwritten.
Note: When creating the MRP Views (or any view for that matter), the Industry Sector and
Material type will be automatically copied from an existing view, so long as at least one
view exists.
The material data can be entered with or without an MRP profile. An MRP profile contains
typical MRP data for a particular procedure. The values can be fixed (cannot be changed) of
default values (can be overridden). The MRP profile simplifies data entry in the master
record. For example if an MRP controller looks after similar material at several plants, a
profile will be defined in the system and assigned to new materials as they are created.
To set user defaults for views and organizational levels follow these steps:
Views:
Menus: Defaults >> Views

Select those views to be checked on by default when generating a new
material.
Select View selection only on request when the select view pop-up is to be bypassed unless selected.
Organizational levels:
Menus: Defaults >> organizational levels

Enter those organizational levels to be defaulted when generating a new
material.
Select Org. levels/profiles only on request when the select view pop-up is to
be by-passed unless selected.
Page | 6
MM COURSE: MASTER
To extend a material to a different plant requires selecting the new plant on the organizational level
screen. Note that all views of a material are not extended unless they were selected on the initial
screen. In addition, each plant may have a different system configuration requiring additional inputs
on each of the departmental screens. Material changes made in one plant do not change that material
in other plants.
To determine which views of a material need to be added or to see which plants a material has been
extended

Tips and Tricks
If no other view exists, you must enter the base (standard / inventory) Unit of measure and a
material description.
Using a reference material (similar characteristics etc.) saves a lot of effort as all the views will be
copied over and can be changed or overwritten.
Note: When creating the MRP Views (or any view for that matter), the Industry Sector and Material
type will be automatically copied from an existing view, so long as at least one view exists.
The material data can be entered with or without an MRP profile. An MRP profile contains typical
MRP data for a particular procedure. The values can be fixed (cannot be changed) of default values
(can be overridden). The MRP profile simplifies data entry in the master record. For example if an
MRP controller looks after similar material at several plants, a profile will be defined in the system
and assigned to new materials as they are created.

16. MM-MM02-Material-Change
Overview
A request to immediately change one or more fields in the material master views

Fields within the material master can be added and maintained after the initial creation process. Some
fields cannot be changed after creation (i.e. material description) and some should not be changed without
proper precautions.
To change a material master record, the data for the view the user wants to change must already be
maintained.
Note that to add a view or extend a material to a new plant, the Create Material transaction is
used rather than the Change Material transaction.
Input-Required Fields

Tips and Tricks

When selecting view for change, it is possible to avoid time and effort, by clicking on right mouse
button and use Select All rather than indicating each view button
When changing material master views you can proceed in a linear fashion between views by
pressing Enter key or pressing Check mark key. By pressing the view tabs you can control
progression through views as per your preference.
Page | 549
MM COURSE: MASTER
The Views that you use will drive the Organizational level pop-up window and its fields. To set
user defaults for views and organizational levels follow these steps:
Views:

Select those views to be checked on by default when generating a new material. Select View
selection only on request when the select view pop-up is to be by-passed unless selected.

Enter those organizational levels to be defaulted when generating a new material. Select Org.
levels/profiles only on request when the select view pop-up is to be by-passed unless selected.

Tips and Tricks
If the same values are used frequently, it will be faster to access the material master data by
setting up defaults. Default values can be set up for Industry Sector, Views and Organizational
levels. These defaults are set from the MM03 initial screen, from the menu selection
Defaults.
If all views should be displayed, it is faster to clicking on right mouse button and use Select All
(or press the Select All icon) rather than clicking on each view button.
To display a material for a specific date, please use Display Material Master by Key Date,

19. MM-MM50-Material-List Extendable Material
Overview
Need to extend existing material master records to include additional departmental views.

Material master records are an accumulation of data from numerous departments. New views of a
material are added as necessary and it is necessary to determine which views need to be added to a
material. This procedure lists all of the views that have not been created for a material.
This procedure can also be used to determine to which plants a material has been extended.

Tips and Tricks

To avoid excessive run times and huge output lists, it is imperative to restrict the search limits on the
initial screen. If no entries are made the system will list all materials in all plants.
By entering a material number, it is possible to determine the plants to which a material has been
extended. Additional plants need to be added using the MM01 transaction.

3. Vendor Master
1.
MM-XK01-Vendor-Create (centrally)
Overview
A new vendor needs to be created.
All vendor data is stored in the vendor master record and controls how transaction data is posted to a
vendor.
Vendor master data is used not only by the accounting department but also by the materials
management department. When setting up the master records, there is the option to create the
accounting and materials management sections separately, each in its own application area, or together
by creating the vendor master centrally.
A vendor master record includes data such as:
vendor name, address, language, and phone numbers
tax numbers
bank data
account control data, such as the G/L reconciliation account for the vendor account
payment methods and terms of payment as agreed with the vendor
purchasing data

Tips and Tricks

This process describes creating the vendor master centrally (accounting views and the purchasing
views of the vendor master record). To create just the purchasing views, see the BPP for transaction
MK01.
By creating/storing vendor master records centrally, permits common access and allows the entering
of data only once and to avoid contradictory/redundant data. If a vendor's address has changed, for
example, the user needs to enter the change only once, and both the accounting department and the
purchasing department will have access to the most current data.

MM-XK05-Vendor-Block (Centrally)
Overview
To block a vendor from posting and order processing.

You can block a vendor from posting, from order processing or from both. Blocking (and unblocking)
can be set in either Financial Accounting or Materials Management. Within Accounts Payable, you can
block a vendor account from posting. (See BPP Block Vendor (Accounting)). You have to block a
vendor master record before you can mark it for deletion. You would also block a vendor that you use
only as an alternative payment recipient, so that nobody can post to it by mistake. Only block an account
if there are no more open items in the account. If an account is blocked, you cannot clear any open items.
Within Purchasing, you can block a vendor from order processing. (See BPP Block Vendor
(Purchasing)).
You can block a vendor from both posting and order processing simultaneously from either Accounts
Payable or Purchasing (See BPP Block Vendor (Centrally)).
You can cancel a vendor account block at any time. To do this, simply remove the relevant
indicator.

MM-XK06-Vendor-Flag for deletion
Overview
Archiving and Deleting Vendor Master Records

You can archive vendor account master records that you no longer need. Archiving data entails it being
extracted from the SAP database, deleted and placed in a file. You can then transfer this file to an archive
system.
Vendor master records may not be archived immediately. For you to archive a vendor master
record, the following requirements must be met:
The account cannot contain any transaction figures in the system. Transaction figures from prior
years that have not been archived will prevent the system from deleting the account master
record.
The account must be marked for deletion in its master record.
You should block an account for posting before you mark it for deletion. The only effect this deletion
indicator has is to cause a warning to be issued every time you subsequently try to post to this account.

MM-ME0M-Source List for Material
Overview
Creating possible sources of supply for a material
Source lists records are used in determining the effective source of a material. Source determination is the
process of assigning a particular source of supply to a purchase requisition or vice versa. A source list
specifies the possible sources of supply for a material over a given period of time. It shows the time
period in which a material may be ordered from a given vendor or under a certain long term purchase
agreement. The system can generate a source list for a material automatically. A source list is created.
