Need additional Description of Material apart from Material Master

[Former Member]

Dear All,

One of our customer wants to maintain an additional Material Description, apart from the description maintained in the Material Master.

In the material Master, they are maintaining "Manufacturer Part Number" as a description.

In the Customer-Material Info record, they are maintaining "Customer's Part No".

Both are getting printing in the Invoice output.

Apart from these they need to maintain some other decription of material. Where we can maintain this?

For example, in the Material Master, they are maintaining "Manufacturer Part Number", something like "RM20010V". The same is not acceptable for Excise clearace officers. They asked them to maintain the clear description of the material.

Please suggest.

Regards,

Mullairaja

Hi

How about maintaining the material description as continuation to the manufacturer part number. You can append the actual description to the manufacturer part number in the material master record, as RM20010V_XXXXXXXXX. This is just an alternative to avoid any enhancements.

Thanks,

Go to MM01 / MM02 and click "Select views" so that you can see a field SALES TEXT. You can maintain here and fetch the same to your sale order / billing.

HI

You can maintain the additional texts in the sales text tab in Material Master.

And the same can be printed in the Invocie for that you have to use the Function Module "READ_TEXT"
