Material Requirements per Course (Report RHMARP00_LSO )
Use
This report lets you display the resources of the type
material
(from the material master) that are required for courses. You can also use the report to trigger a material reservation for in-stock material or a purchase requisition for non-stock material if required.
If no material is required for a course, a message to this effect is output.
Note
This report evaluates the amount of material that is available using the assigned resource type. This information is stored for the resource type in the
Availability Indicators
infotype. This infotype specifies whether a material is required per participant or per course.

Output
The report generates a list in the SAP List Viewer (ALV) Grid Control that can contain any of the following information depending on your layout specifications:
Course name
Controlling area
Cost center
Start and end date of the course
Capacity of the course (minimum, optimum, maximum)
Bookings
Material name
Material number
Requirement per course
Requirement per participant
Total requirements (requirements per participant are multiplied by the number of participants booked)
Status of the reservation
Reference document number for the material reservation (when it has been executed)
Reference document number for the material order (when it has been executed)
For more information about display options on the list screen, see SAP List Viewer (ALV)) Grid Control .
On the list screen, you can trigger a material reservation or a purchase requisition for the materials displayed by choosing Reserve Material.
The following process flow takes place:
When you choose Reserve Material, a dialog box appears where you can decide whether the amount required is the same as the number of particpants booked or whether it should correspond to the optimum capacity.
When you trigger the material order, an availability check is carried out for the material to see if it is in stock. Depending on availability, a material reservation and/or a purchase requisition is generated. These are further processed in
Materials Management
.When the order transaction has been completed, you select the reference number on the Material Requirements per Coursescreen to update the requisition or reservation. If you are using distributed systems, it may be necessary to monitor the transaction via ALE Monitoring. If relevant information is missing for the material order, such as organizational data, purchasing data, or plant data, an error dialog is generated. You must follow the instructions in the dialog.
If the reservation or purchase requisition runs without errors, you can double-click the reference number to display the original reservation document in
Materials Management
or the original purchase requisition document inPurchasing.
