Function 'MATERIAL_MAINTAIN_DARK'

[Former Member]

Hello,

I want to use function 'MATERIAL_MAINTAIN_DARK' to change data only in table MBEW.

I have filled all necessary data im mara_ueb like tcode, index, matnr and vpsta only for the accounting view. Basic view is not maintained in vpsta.

And all necessary data in mbew_ueb.

I do not want to change or add any data of  table mara. But if I run my program I get error messages that belongs to some mara fields. Alle this fields are required fields in mara.

We will maintain this fields at a later time but not yet. At this moment we only want to maintain fields from mbew.

Is there a way to deactivate the check of the mara fields or does this function always check the fields of the basic view. 

Thanks

Arnfried

Hello Arnfried,

This is a MM - Master Data Creation / Updation FM. As per the Documentation, only data that can be created or changed jointly in an online transaction is created or changed jointly using this Function Module

So If you can perform such an operation i.e. the desired material master update using an Online T-code, you should be able to do it via FM as well. 

You can always make use of the "Test Mode" option to ensure the Database remains intact.
