Documentation

Definition

Indicates whether, for a specific plant, the material may be used in the following areas:

• Materials management (for example, in purchasing and in inventory management)
• Production planning and control
• Plant maintenance
• Warehouse management
• Costing with a quantity structure

Use

The plant-specific material status restricts the usability of the material for the plant concerned, that is, it defines whether a warning or error message is displayed if you include the material in a particular function.
