Business process
The materaial status is very useful if you want to
block the material from being used
at a certain business process.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
For example :-
You want to designate a material as a material to be
discontinued. In the master record,
you give the material a status whose parameters have the
following settings:
Parameters in transaction
OMS4 (Double click the
status line items for IMG Settings) :
Purchasing "B" = error message
MRP "A" = warning
Inventory Management " " = no message
If the material is used, this parameter assignment has
the following effect:
Purchasing
You can perform no further purchasing function for the
material; for example, you can
enter no further purchase order for the material.
In this instance, you are given a corresponding error
message.
MRP
If you plan requirements for the material, you are warned
that the material is one to
be discontinued.
Inventory Management
You can continue to withdraw the material from stores; no
message is given.
