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,

Logically there is no need to keep multiple material codes in system. However, if you want to continue with this process I would suggest you to keep the materials in separate logical storage locations.

Mat 1 -- Sloc1

Mat 2 -- Sloc 2

Similarly.

So if user have used all the stock of Mat1 from SLoc1 he may swtich to Mat2 of Sloc2 .

Rgds,
