Question no 3931 : new in Material Type (S/4 1809)

In S/4 1809, which of the following are "NEW" features in the Material Type ?

(one answer only)

A) Product Type Group.
B) Material is Configurable.
C) Item Category Group.
D) X-Plant Material Status.
E) Advanced Planning selection view.

Answers: A

new features of Material Type in S/4 includes:
1. Product Type Group (dictates Material or Lean Services scenario for a Material)
2. FFF "Form-Fit-Function" Class (I believe is from Automotive Industrial Solution) which I think could be for DIMP functionality called Parts Interchangeability. (However, I cannot find too many information about this)

Note that E) is not a new feature although "Advanced Planning" in the Material Master as a data view is new. However, activating the "Advanced Planning" view is via the MRP view selection. 

Question no 3926 : Product Type Group (S/4 1809)

In SAP S/4 1809, which of the following are correct about the Product type Group (for Material Master) ?

(more than one answers)

A) The Product type Group is defaulted from the Material Group.
B) The Product type Group is defaulted from the Material Type.
C) You can change the Product Type Group in the Purchase Order.
D) The Product Type Group can be used for Lean Service scenario.
E) The Product Type Group can be used for Lean Subcontracting scenario.
.

Answer: B, D

The Product type Group is optional assignment in the Material Type (OMS2), if it is set then the Material Master created with the Material Type for the Product type Group will follow a specific scenario. You can find the Product type Group in the Purchase Order line item but it cannot be changed. One of the new features associated with the Product Type Group "2" for Lean Services scenario (instead of using Service Master); however, the Service Entry of such Lean Service can be done via a Fiori App as at 1809.

Question no 3874 : Storage Location data view

In SAP MM as at ECC6.0 EhP6, which of the following can be created at the Storage Location data view ?

(more than one answers)

A)  MPR3 data view.
B)  MPR4 data view.
C)  Purchasing data view.
D)  Plant/Storage Location data view.

Answer: B, D

The SLoc data view for MRP4 and Plant/Storage are optional.

the Material Master data view can be extended via MMSC or MM01

the Material Master data view can also be extended via Goods Receipt to that Storage Location provided the IMG (t-code OMB3) set for "Allow Create Storage Location Automatically" for the Plant.

The above is TRUE for ECC6.

However, in S/4 HANA, the Material Master SLoc data view is no longer available.

D) Create Sales Order.

E) MRP run. 

.

 

 Answer: C, D

OMS4 (Transaction code)

IMG - Logistics - General - Material master - Settings for key fields - Define material statuses.
 

Material status can be found in the Material Master in the Basic view as a X-Plant Client level Control field (with a valid from date), it can also be found as Plant-level data control field in MRP view. A control action can be either "Warning" or "Error". Affected areas are some processes in MM, PP, PM, WMS, and CO activities.

Areas of Control including (example t-codes not allowed for the Material):

MM-Purchasing - Create Purchasing Document (ME51N, ME21N, ME31K, ME31L, ME41)

MM-Inventory Management 0 Create Goods Movement (IMGO)

PP-Master data - Create BOM Header (CS01, CS02)

PP-Master data - Create as a BOM item (CS01, CS02)

PP-Master data - Create Material Production Resource Tool

PP-Planning - Planned Independent Requirement Creation (MD61)

PP-Planning - MRP run (MD01, MD02, MDBT etc)

PP-Planning - Forecasting Run (MP30)

PP-Planning - Long Term Planning Run (MS01, MS02, MSBT etc)

PP-Execution - Creation as a Header for a Production Order (CO01)

PP-Execution - Creation as a Component item in the Production Order (CO01, CO02)  

PM-Execution - Creation of Maintenance Order as a Spare Parts (IW31)

WMS-Execution - Create Transfer Requirement (from Goods Movement Integration)

WMS-Execution - Convert TR to Transfer Order (LB01)

CO-PCP - Create Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure (CK11N)

Question no 3847 : Account Assignment Purchase Order

In SAP MM as at ECC6.0 EhP6, a user entered a Material Master, Quantity, and Plant in a Purchase Order, the system prompts message to enter an Account Assignment, why ?

D)  The Material Type for the Material was "UNBW".
E)  The Document Type used for the Purchasing Document requires Account Assignment.
.

Answers: B, D

The system expects an Account Assignment in the Purchasing Document when:

No Accounting data view means no stock account, hence an accounting assignment is desirable. (B)

Material Type "UNBW" is likely set with Qty without Value for the Plant. (D)

No Material entered in the Purchasing Document line item.

Material entered was created with Material Type ("Without Value" indicator). (eg: UNBW or NLAG)

Question no 3799 : Create Purchase Order

In SAP MM as at S/4 1909, which of the following is the minimum data view to create a Purchase Order ?

(only one answer)

A)  Basic, Purchasing, MRP, Plant/Storage, Accounting data views.
B)  Basic, Purchasing, MRP, Accounting data views.
C)  Basic, Purchasing, Accounting data views.
D)  Purchasing, Accounting data views.
E)  Purchasing data view.
.

Answer: E

The answer could either be D or E.

But "E" recommended as the Question statement does not specify a scenario and in this case open for interpretation. 

If it is a Material with "ROH" and the OMS2 configuration for the Plant is with "Qty update" and with "Value update" then the system expects minimum Purchasing and Accounting data views as Stock Posting (Dr Stock Account) is expected with "Value update" using the Accounting data view's Valuation Class to determine to Stock Account.

However if the "Value update" indicator is NOT set at the Plant for the Material Type configuration in OMS2; it is sufficient to have just the Purchasing data view to create a Purchase Order with Accounting Assignment entry as Stock Posting is not possible without the Accounting data view. The Accounting assignment PO will be charged to Expenses account at GR.

Therefore, the Material Type configurations "Value update" indicator plays a role in this Purchase Order creation scenario for with or without Accounting data view.

In case, the system detects in ME21N that PO creation is not possible due without without Accounting data view, a message ME047 is prompted as ERROR (The accounting data is necessary for the current processing), proceed to extend the Material with an Accounting view or choose a Plant set without "Value update" that is assigned to that Material Type in OMS2.
