For easier maintenance of material masters for interchangeable materials you can copy the contents of selected fields from a reference material to all materials that are completely interchangeable with the reference material (= belonging to the same FFF Class).

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

Recommendation

Activities

Maintain all the fields here that have the same contents as all of the interchangeable materials in a FFF Class.

Further notes

To copy the field contents from the reference material use Report RMPNCOPY.

The report does not create new fields of a material master. Therefore field contents will only be copied if the corresponding view has already been created in the Master Record of the target mateial.

Field contents are filled dependent on the plant and will only be copied if the target material already exists in the corresponding plant.
