Documentation
Procedure
Enter a code and a description for a grouping of similar materials, such as crates, trucks or pallets.
Use
The packaging material type that you enter here is linked in Customizing to a material group for packaging materials, which you assign to a material in the material master. As you assemble the handling unit, you call up a list of packaging materials that are allowed for an item that you want to pack. This system puts together this list by matching the material group for packaging materials for that item with the appropriate packaging material types.
Example
Material group for packaging materials Packaging material types
0001 Beverages 0010 Barrels
0001 Beverages 0020 Bottles
0002 Small parts 0030 Boxes
0002 Small parts 0040 Plastic bags
0003 Pallets 0050 Containers
0003 Pallets 0060 Trucks
During packing, when you call up the list of allowed packaging materials for a material defined in the material master as material group 0001 (beverages), the system lists all packaging materials of type 0010 (barrels) and 0020 (bottles). For group 0002 (small parts), packaging materials assigned to types 0030 (boxes) and 0040 (plastic bags) would be proposed and for group 0003, packaging materials of types 0050 (containers) and 0060 (trucks) would be proposed.
Note
The groupings and packaging material types are freely definable.
