Hi Master data is data which remain in database for long period and it is used by the procurement and other user departments for procurement and manufacturing process.

we can maintain master data for materials,for vendors, for services etc in material managment .

Can anybody tell me if we can reconfigure unit of measure again in the master data if we have done that once.

For example : I am using tons as my unit of measure while creating master data but later I realized that I want to use kgs as my unit of measure can I reconfigure this if yes how? If no why?

Thanks in advance!

Hi friend...

No matter in which module you are into... Master data can be defined as a repository through which the data is pulled into various documents. Examples could be Material masterdata, Customer master data, Vendor master data....

Data will be pulled from this masters to the documetns whenever necessary...

Thanks,

Hi,

The data used as master records for creating documents

It includes :

1) Material master

2) Vendor master

3) Information records

4) Source list

5) Quota arrangements sometimes

where you maintain some data which you use continuously being used for creating your documents which are transaction based.

These have different views which updates inventory, pricing and other details.
