Entering or Changing Material Components in the Ma (SAP Library

Entering or Changing Material Components in the Material List

Whether your material has a material list or not, you can enter or change material components in the Material list screen of the process order. You can allocate, create, change or delete components in the order as long as the system statuses "created" or "released" are active. You should, however, note the following:

You cannot change the item category of a component once it has been created in the order.

If you delete a component which is allocated to a released operation, the system continues to display the component in the order. However, you can no longer enter data for the component. The status "deletion indicator" is activated in the component.

You can change component data both in create and change mode.

The following detail screens exist for components:

General data

Co-product

Purchasing data

Text item

To change component allocation to operations or phases, proceed as follows:

Select the component whose allocation you want to change.

Now select the menu options Edit ® Reallocate.
The system displays a pop-up Reallocate, in which you can change the allocation of the component from one operation or phase to another. You can display a list of all the operations and phases contained in your process order by clicking on Operation list.
