Retail related fields in Material Master to be made optional in ECC 6.0

[Former Member]

Hello All,

We are upgrading from ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0 in the current system the Field Selection Group 200 we have only 1 field MARA-HKMAT assigned and it is a mandatory field for some of the Field References.

But in ECC 6.0, this Field Selection Group 200 contains MARA-BRAND_ID, MARA-BSTAT, MARA-FASHGRD, MARA-FREE_CHAR and MBEW-HKMAT. Now all these fields have become mandatory for the earlier Field references. But the requirement is to have only MBEW-HKMAT to be mandatory and rest others can be made optional. But the settings in OMS9 can be done only for the Field Selection Group as a whole and not at the individual field level.

Please share your inputs if you have faced similar situation earlier.

Regards,

Atul Prakash

Hello Atul,

Perhaps you change this setting in ECC 5.0 because in the standard System this field become under field selection 41, however, if you need to have always this field set into the material master,

perhaps,you can set this field as required entry using field selection (tr. OMSR and OMS9). This will force the user to mark the 'Material origin' indicator when creating a new material.

This field belong to "Field selection group" 200 in your case, 41 in standard system), so if you set "Requied entry" for any "Field Reference", all the fields in this group should be chaged to "Requied entry".

But you can copy 200 to create a new "Field selection group" only for these field, ans set this field selection group as required.

Hope this can help

Hello Atul,

The restriction to 240 is hardcoded in the System ( program L0MMGI01)

&----

---

*& Module FORM_FGRUP INPUT

&----

• text

----

MODULE FORM_FGRUP INPUT.

IF NOT T130F-FGRUP IS INITIAL.

PERFORM FORM_FGRUP USING T130F-FGRUP.

IF NOT T130F-FGRUP CO ' 0123456789'

OR T130F-FGRUP <= 0 OR T130F-FGRUP > GC_FGRUP_MAX. <- here

MESSAGE E576(MI) WITH GC_FGRUP_MAX .

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

V_130F-FGRUP = T130F-FGRUP.

ENDMODULE. " FORM_FGRUP INPUT

the value of field GC_FGRUP_MAX is setted to 240, so if you insert a value less than 1 and greater than 240 in field selection group the System block you with the message MI576. since this is hardcoded the only chance you have is to modify the standard program....

Mauro
