Creating a Material Master Record
There are two ways of creating a material master record:
This documentation describes the material master record exclusively from the sales view. Therefore, the following description refers to adding new views to already existing material master records.
Steps:
Using the example of trading goods (HAWA), the section below describes how to extend a material master record. You proceed in the same way for other material types.
The Create Material: Initial Screen.
The system issues a message telling you that the industry sector has automatically been transferred from the master record.
A dialog box appears from which you can select the views which you want to work with.
By selecting views you define an individual screen sequence. If you do not select any new views you receive a system error message:
Material already maintained for this transaction/event.
Another dialog box appears in which you specify the organizational level at which you want to carry out the change.
Edit these data screens. You must at least enter data in the required fields.
After you have edited the last data screen, a dialog box appears in which you see the system message that the editing process will end. Select Yes to save your material data.
Material <Material number> created.
This concludes the processing. You have extended the material master record by adding new sales views.
Sales prices are determined by conditions. You will find a detailed description of how material prices and sales prices are calculated in the SD Guide to Pricing and Conditions. In the material master record you can access the price condition screen by selecting Extras ® Sales Details ® Price in the menu and maintain the material price.
