Equivalent Material Code

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have one requirement as follows.

Technically materials are same. But it has different code and descriptions. When we check the material system should show other material in stock.

Example:

We have material X, Y Z

These materials are technically same specification. But It has different material codes.

When we check Material X in system, if not in stock, immediately system should show other stock Y & Z material if stock available.

how do we do in standard configuration?

thanks

Hi Swathi,

You can try this approach.

1. Add a field in Material Master to keep Primary Material Code in subordinate materials.

     ( Primary material: X, then material Y & Z will keep X in material master)

2. Customized Stock report to get stock from X, if zero stock, read stock from Y & Z.
