Function documentationCreate a Material

 

For each material which you wish to enter in material consumption documentation, you must enter a material master in the clinical system.

From the SAP Easy Access menu select Start of the navigation path Clinical System Next navigation step Basic Clinical Data Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Clinical Service Master Next navigation step Service/Material Next navigation step Create/Change/Display End of the navigation path.

Integration

If you use the material consumption documentation with Materials Management (MM) integration, you must also create a material master in the Materials Management component.

To create the reference between the material in the clinical system and the material from materials management, you enter the material number from the material master in MM in the Material input field. A material in materials management can only be assigned to one material from the clinical system.

Activities

You create a material according to a Service Master. As the object type on the Other Tab Page you must use the value 1 (material). You can optionally define a unit for the consumption of materials in the Quantity Unit input field.

You can enter billing or controlling-relevant information on a material on the Classification Tab Page. Using the Inpatient Billable or Outpatient Billable indicators you determine whether the system should bill the material for inpatient, day patient, or for outpatient cases. You use the CO-Relevant indicator to determine whether the material is relevant for cost accounting.

Caution Caution

In the service master you may not set the Medical Service or Nursing Service indicator for the material on the Medical Indicators tab page.

End of the caution.

Note Note

If you use the material consumption documentation with MM integration, you cannot set the CO-Relevant indicator on the Classification tab page in parallel with the Storage indicator and the Billing indicator in the material master. Otherwise the material is billed to the cost center twice.

End of the note.
