Documentation

Definition

Material master record that serves as a template for packing with packing instructions for materials that can be packed in the same way.

Use

The material, for which the reference material is entered in the material master record, can be packed with special packing instructions for the reference material.

Dependencies

There must be a material master record for the reference material.

Examples

The materials 4711-01 and 4711-02 can be packed in the same way. For both materials, the reference material 4711 is entered in the material master record.

If you now create a packing instruction containing the reference material 4711 as an item of item type "R", both material 4711-01 and material 4711-02 can be packed automatically using this packing instruction.
