Lexicographical Setting

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm working on a global implementation with several R/3 systems and a single APO system. The new R/3 system will have the lexicographical setting flagged on and the other systems have lexicographical turned off. The business want to move to having the lexicographical setting on. All systems have shared products and are on the same Business System Group.

Where the lexicographical is off in an R/3 system and on in the APO system numerical products are failing in the CIF. Is there a user exit or other solution to work around this?

Kind regards

Hi Michael,

In R/3, the lexicographic setting will be done in spro>logistics-general>material master>basic settings>define output format of material numbers. In APO, it is done at spro>APO>Master data>Product>specify output format of product numbers.

Check for enhancement APOCF005 under function module EXIT_/SAPAPO/SAPLCIF_PROD_001

Hi Senthil

Thanks for this.

I checked that function module before and couldn't find anything about the lexicographical setting. Do you have any more information?

Kind regards

Michael
