create sales order with EAN not working

[peter_wallner2]

Dear SD experts,

We need to be able to create sales orders using EAN numbers for EDI ordering. Also if certain customers order

using an EAN then SAP substitutes with a specific SAP material number.

My idea is to maintain VB13 with "Material determ.type" ZRU1 (keys: "Customer hierarchy / Material" and "Material entered"):

If the EAN is not found here then SAP would check with the other key "Material entered"

In SPRO:

"Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions ->  Material Determination -> Maintain Prerequisites for Material Determination -> Maintain access sequences" we maintained the sequence for that:

The funny thing here is I get the warning "The field assignment has not yet been made" even though I can't find the issue here.

But now when I test it in VA01 it does not work (it works when I use SAP material 400099):

In SPRO I also maintained:

and did "Assign Procedures To Sales Document Types".

Can you please help me solving this. Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Peter

I figured it out. I was on the right path but the key "Customer hierarchy / Material" set up was using the wrong fields.

I had to go back into "Create condition tables" and create a table with key "Customer/MatEntered" and used the existing table "Material Entered" as second key.

Now in VA01 if I enter the EAN it is pulling in the SAP material.

Best regards,

Peter
