Note Note

The inbound IDoc in the target system always accepts the material number sent in the IDoc, independent of the number range settings for the material type. Without additional coding it is not possible to force the target systems to create new material numbers. You can do this coding in enhancement spot ES_SAPLMV02 in function module IDOC_INPUT_MATMAS01.
