MM Study:Learn Material Master

As you know, we always contact with material in SAP system. So at first I will take some times to be familiar with the material master.

The material master is used by all components in the SAP Logistic System. The integration of all material data in a single database object eliminates redundant data storage. The following functions could be contained in the master data:

-Purchasing (Purchase orders)

-Inventory (Goods movements)

-SD (Sales order processing)

-Production Planning (MRP, Scheduling)

-FI (Invoice posting)

The Material Master screen sequence

1. Material---(industry)(material type)(reference)

2. views-----(basic data)(Sales)(Purchasing)……

3. Organizational levels---(Plant)(Storage location)

4. Data screens

When create a material, you must specify the industry sector, and the material type.

Material type determines the views that can be created when specified.

The main material types:

ROH---Raw materials

This reflects any raw material which is procured externally and then be processed. It can not be sold to customers and is consumed within our plant(s) exclusively.

HALB---Semi finished

Products that can be procured externally as well as manufactured in-house. The material on stock is valuated by using standard price control.

FERT---Finished products

Finished products are produced by the company itself. Since they cannot be ordered by Purchasing, a material master record of this material type does not contain purchasing data.

FHMI---Production
