Material master screens and fields

This document consists of configuring the material master. However , an understanding of how to make changes to material master.

I try to explain configuration the material master settings for different users or everyone. When you run MM01 tcode , you will see datas for several departments like a purchasing , accounting , mrp , wm , qm … If you want to prevent some views , you can configure material master dialog.

 

Logical screen and subscreen :

 

Bellowed print – screen have a Subscreen-General Data with screen number 2001 . Also , all of the datas of subscreens built a Logical screenBasic data 1.

When designing your own logical screens, you can use either your own subscreens or standard sap subscreens.

 

Refer to Additional Fields on the Material Master … Thanks to Miroslav Oprsteny

Refer to Enhancing Material Master for adding new fields.. Thanks to Shahanaz Hussain

Refer to **************** – Tips – Implementing screen exits for MM01/MM02/MM03

Refer to **************** – Adding a field to "Sales Org View2" of MM01/MM02 (No screen exit/BaDI available)

Refer to https://blogs.sap.com/2016/07/08/appending-mara-adding-custom-fields/

 

Use your own screens if you want to have different field groupings , Tools–>Abap workbench–>development–>user interface–>screen painter.

 

An example for configuring material master :

 

I want to use the subscreen with Environmentally relevant and DG Indicator Profile fields in Purchasing view in the case of a special material type and only by certain users.

 

* In the technical information dialog box , screen number 2010 for the program SAPLMGD1 , Note : Users have to use their own programs to insert fields from their tables and their sunscreens for material masters.

* Create a new screen sequence , copy 21 to Z0  , configuration steps :

–> ZO screen sequence created

4.PNG

–> Check data screens

 

On columns , you can maintain screens :

 

Screen types :

 

1 : Main screen such as Basic data , Purchasing , Sales

2 : Secondary screen such as Additional data

 

Screen container :

 

Screens for program SAPLMGMM like a 4004 Main screens with 10 subscreens.

 

Maintenance status :

 

Special user departments can maintain a MM record of a particular material type.

 

User department Maintenance status
Work scheduling A
Accounting B
Classification C
MRP D
Purchasing E
Production resources/tools F
Costing G
Basic data K
Storage L
Forecasting P
Quality management Q
Warehouse management S
Sales V
Plant stocks X
Storage location stocks Z

 

GUI Status :

 

GUI status are defined in Menu–>Painter which consists of a menu bar with menus, a standard toolbar, an application toolbar and functions with function key settings.

 

Title type for selection group:

 

Type 2: three/four-part title type, for main screens

 

When transaction title maintain , it is made up  description, screen name, industry sector and material type.

 

Retail maintain status :

 

User department Maintenance status
Basic data 0
Listing 1
Classification 2
Purchasing 3
Sales 4
Logistics: distribution center 5
Logistics: store 6
POS 7
Allocation table 8

* Change data screen for purchasing related fields in the subscreen 2010.

 

–> General information : Double click subscreens

* Also ,you can view subscreen and data screen

–> Configurations for adding subscreen to purchasing view , sequence 14 purchasing

 

a1.PNG

 

–> Replace subscreen 5 with the environment relevant fields

 

a2.PNG

 

–> Specify for your requirements like a transaction , user , material type , industry sector

 

b1.PNG

 

–> For example – Specify for material type screen reference : Sarf

 

11.PNG

 

–> Go to OMS2 and maintain screen reference of material type

–> You can see Environment related subscreen in Purchasing view of  Sarf material type
