Define Checking Groups Default Value (SAP Library

Define Checking Groups Default Value

In this IMG activity, you define the checking group that the system proposes when you create a new material master record. You can overwrite the default value for the checking group in the material master record.

The default value depends on the material type and plant. The SAP R/3 System copies this value to the SD documents, thereby proposing a certain extent of the availability check.

Requirements

You have defined your material types and plants.

Actions

1. Make sure that the system proposes the checking groups you require for the availability check in the material master (under sales: general/plant data).

2. Check which checking groups are to be valid for which material types in the different plants.

3. Assign a default checking group to the material types in the individual plants. You can enter a default value for each material type. For a definition of checking groups, see the IMG activity Define checking groups.

4. Make sure that the availability check indicator is maintained in the material master.
