LSMW for extending materials to new set of plants

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Our requirement is to extend some hundreds of materials to a set of few plants. Can this be done in LSMW? Or should BDC be used??

Please elaborate on this.

Regards

Hi,

Yes you can extend materials to new set of plants through LSMW..If you have done the creation of material master by LSMW,use the same tool for extending also.use the same excel sheet in which it contains data for creation,in that change the plant and storage location details and also some plant specific data and then Upload.we have done like in one of the implementation where we extended materials to lot many plants

Hi Girish,

How can I extend materials to a new plant and Sales Org. through LSMW?

I use the Standard Batch Object 0020, program RMDATIND for creating new Materials the first time (this qworks fine), but there is no option 'Extend to existing material' or there is no field called Reference Material...

Maybe it is because we use internal numbering of the new Materials that makes it unpossible to extend materials to existing material-numbers?

Thank you, regards, Walter.

If you want to extend some hundreds of materials to a set of few plants, then LSMW will be preferable object.
