Material master vs. Client?????????

[Former Member]

Hi,

Here is a question I need a logic for it.

On material master, what organizational level is the divison at?

Answer is "Client" in one of sample certification questions.

Can someone explain this?

Thank you very much.

Division is always created at the client level meaning multiple sales organizations and multiple company codes can use the same division. It is not restricted to specific sales organization and company code. Similarly Distribution channel, Shipping point etc.

Hi HK, AK, MK.

The term 'client' means that the division of a material is maintained at a client level and it cannot have more than one division in that client. This is unlike customer master where division is below sales org. It means that one customer master can be extended to multiple divisions (by extending to multiple sales areas).

But a material always belongs to a division unlike customer who can purchase products of multiple divisions. So it can have only one division in any client.

division is an independent org unit. it can be used by n number of company codes and n number of sales org's. that is the logic it is at client level.
