Features

Transfer of a Vendor Block to an EWM System

The settings for the blocking function are transferred from the vendor master in the ERP system to the EWM system by means of CIF. The goods receipt posting for a specific vendor can be prevented with this transfer.

Transfer QM Control Key and Indicator for QM in Procurement

The QM Procurement Active indicator and the QM control key are transferred to the EWM system from the material master of the ERP system.

The goods receipt posting for a specific material can be prevented with this transfer.

Batch Classification

The batch classification, that is, the class and class type, is transferred to an EWM system by means of CIF. This makes it possible to create a batch as initial in the EWM system.

Change Transfer for Master Data

For the fields given above, changes are transferred to the CIF if you have activated the general CIF functions, if you have selected the checkboxes for the message types CIFMAT and CIFVEN in Customizing under Start of the navigation path Integration with Other SAP Components Next navigation step Extended Warehouse Management Basic Settings for Data Transfer Change Transfer for Master Data Activate ALE Change Pointers for Message Types End of the navigation path , and have also activated the business function.

Note Note

Moreover, via the business function, you can set change pointers for the fields Inspection Interval, Material Type, and Shelf Life Expiration Date.

In the standard system, the fields are transferred with the material master data. If you want to set change pointers specifically for the fields, you need to activate the business function.

End of the note.

Note Note

If you have selected the transfer type Business Transaction Events (BTE), CIF is still chosen, for technical reasons, for the transfer of the batch classification as well as the QM control key and the setting for QM in procurement in the material master.
