Hi,

Hi

A unique code that identifies each material requiring an export license.

Each legal regulation includes a list of materials requiring export licenses and assigns an alphanumeric code to each of these materials. In the SAP system, these code numbers are called export control classes.

You can also use the grouping to treat products with the same export control class (for example, identical computers with different processing speeds) differently from the point of view of export law. When you assign different groupings, the system also determines different export license types (thus, different export licenses) during legal control.

To create groupings in Customizing for Sales and Distribution, choose Foreign Trade ® Legal control ® Define groupings and Assign Export Control Classes to Groupings.

Export Control Class and Grouping for a Material

The material master record contains a segment so that you can assign the appropriate export control class to each material within a given legal regulation when you enter the material-specific data relevant to legal control.

Within a legal regulation, each material has a specific legal control class and can only be assigned to one grouping for legal control. Since there are also cases in which products with identical export control numbers have to be treated differently from the point of view of export law, groupings are also recorded in the material master.

The legal regulations relevant for the exporting country are marked in the first column. Only these are checked. You can also maintain preemptive export control classes and groupings for legal regulations that are not yet active.

In the material master Foreign trade export view you need to maintain the three fields

The Exemption Certificate code is set to "B" u2013 Accepted

The Exemption Certificate Number is maintained

The Exemption Certificate Issue Date falls before the goods issue date of the export

Fields are available in table MARC.

Thanks & Regards
