Extending the material

[Former Member]

Hi All

If I have to extend a material to a view I think tcode mmo1(create/extend a material) is used then what about tcode mm50? what is the main difference between those?

Sam,

You can use either MM01 or MM50 to extend the material to a particular view that has not been maintained provided that view is allowed for the material type of the material in config (OMS2).

The difference between the two transactions is that MM50 is a report that is normally used for 'mass' extension of materials based on the criteria you enter on the selection screen. In MM01, you can obviously extend the view only for a single material. It must also be noted that the MM50 program internally makes a call to the MM01 transaction. So in terms of the mechanism of extension, there is not much of a difference.

Hope this helps.
