Supplementary Documentation - LWMS_MATNR0001
Procedure
In create mode, you can either choose a number yourself or have a concecutive number assigned for you by the system, depending on the method preferred by your company,
- If you leave the field blank, the system will assign a number automatically.
- If you enter a number, it must be within the corresponding number range.
Supplementary Documentation - LWMS_MATNR0002
Procedure
Enter the number of the material you want to order.
Leave this field blank if no master record exists for the material.
Supplementary Documentation - LWMS_MATNR0003
Use
You can create purchasing info records as follows:
- With relation to a material master record. The system copies data such as order unit and the short description of the material from the material master record. When the material is ordered, the system automatically copies information such as price and conditions from the info record to the order item.
- Without reference to a material master record. You have to enter the material data for the info record. You can then only refer to the info record during the purchase by entering the number of the info record.
Procedure
Enter the number of a material, in order to define the purchasing info record with reference to a material master.
If you do not enter anything, the purchasing info record is defined without reference to a material master record.

Procedure
Examples
Dependencies
Supplementary Documentation - LWMS_MATNR0100
Use
For multiple bills of material, you must define for the planning run, how the BOM alternatives are to be selected. One possibility is to control the selection according to date/time. In this table, you enter the materials, for which the selection of alternatives is to be executed according to date/time.
For each material and BOM usage, you define the time range, during which a certain BOM alternative is to be selected.
Note
There are two prerequisites for the selection of BOM alternatives according to date/time:
Selection according to date/time only occurs when the relevant indicator for alternative selection according to date/time is entered in the material master.
You must enter materials that are to be part of the BOM selection according to date/time in this table.
Procedure
Enter the following parameters for defining the selection of alternatives:
- Material number
- BOM usage
- Valid-from date
If you only enter one date, the time frame is open-ended. If you maintain various time frames with various alternatives, the current time frame only lasts until the next time frame begins.
- BOM alternative
