Whenever you create a material master record, you must assign it to a material type. This requires you to first define the attributes of each material type. You do this in this IMG activity.
Material types are used in the following neighboring areas, where they are also configured in Customizing:
- Profit Center Accounting
- Product Cost Planning
- Sales and Distribution (availability check)
- Valuation and Account Assignment (valuation classes)
- Production:
Consult with these areas if necessary.
Activities
You have the following options:
- Customizing the existing material types in the SAP system if necessary
You do this by selecting the material type and choosing Details.
- Creating new material types
You do this by copying an existing material type.
In each case, define the attributes of each material type as required.
Note
You can also maintain the price control for the material type in Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment in the activity Define Price Control for Material Types.
For each material type, you can allow movements in quantity to be updated in all valuation areas, in some valuation areas, or in none. Likewise, you can allow value flows to be updated in all valuation areas, in some valuation areas, or in none.
Once you have maintained the material types, define the number ranges for each material type.
Further notes
SAP library LO Material Master -> Material Types
Note for Product Cost Planning
When you cost materials, the With quantity structure indicator in the material type controls how the materials of that material type are costed.
If you implement Product Cost Planning after you have created material master records, you should check the With quantity structure indicator in the material master records and change it if necessary.
Changing With quantity structure indicator in the material type has no effect on existing material master records.
