Material load with LSMW

[Former Member]

I created an LSMW proj to load Material master data .

The materials are created but when i try to view the materials using mm02/03 it doesnt show all the views ( like basic data1/2)...although if i create a material ( with exact same data ) throuh MM01 tcode , I can see all the views ..!!

what can be the reason for this ?

Do you see the material at all? I don't know if they are really created. What object/method are you using in LSMW?

[Former Member]

I am using the Direct Input Method : RMDATIND to load the materials and i can see the materials using the mm01 and Mara table .

If you created the material(using LSMW), then you should be able to see it in MM02 or MM03 transactions, at least the BASIC DATA 1 and 2 views. For the others, your mapping should be correct.

Yeah , thats whats wierd...Using LSMW(RMDATIND Direct Input ) and using the MM01 i created two materials exactly identical data ( what i passed to LSMW , Same kind of data to the MM01) and for the :

LSMW created material , it doesnt shoe the basic views when i try to see it with mm02/03 but for MM01 created material it does shows all the views ???

Srinivas ,

Thanks

Look at the structure of BMM00 structure in SE12. See the description of each of the XEI* fields. See which ones are applicable(which views you want to create) in your case and pass 'X' to that field in your mapping. Also, check if you are passing the corresponding org values like plant, sales org etc.

If you need to hardcode the particular XEI* field to 'X', in mapping, double click on that field and it will open the editor for you. Go in change mode and set BMM00-XEI-- = 'X'.

hi sinha,

what method are u using in LSMW?

<b>Check whether you have done the mapping for all of your views..</b>

Pay special attention to the mapping you have for BMM00 structure and the flags XEI* that you passed 'X' to.
