  1. A) IMG -MM - Purchasing - Material Master - Entry Aids for items w/o Material Master, here in this configuration you assign the Material Group to a Valuation Class. For example in GBB for Consumable PO, entering a PO line item without a material (but with Material Group as it is mandatory), the Material Group's valuation class can then be used as one of the influencing factor to determine the G/L Account.

  2. B, C) In Contract but not in Scheduling Agreement, you can use item category 'M' or 'W" in case material is not known in the Contract and the Material Group will be a key to determine types of actual Material that can be input in the Release Order PO to the Contract.

  3. D) In creating Info Record, the Vendor and Purchasing Organization is always mandatory. Both Material and Plant can be optional. An Info Record without Plant means successful negotiation of one price for many plants managed negotiation by the Purchasing Organization. However, an Info Record without Material (but using Material Group instead) means negotiated price for several materials with the same material group for one price. (for example screws of different colors but same specifications)

  4. E) Both Source List and Quota Arrangement must be created with Material and Plant as at ECC6.0 EhP6.
