Hello,

In our implementation, we use EXIT_SAPLCMAT_001 for the 'material master data block'. We are using this to block consumption modes and safety stock from going to APO from R/3. We have written our own include (ZXCIFU01) for this , but of course you will need to write your own include statement for this, specifying the fields you want to block.

Hi Chandan,

In R/3, any master data changes in any of the fields will get carried over to APO via change pointers through the t-code CFP1. There is a t-code which specially sends master data related fields like bom, routing, receipe, resource etc., called CFP3. If you do not want to process the change to update in APO side, the change pointer needs to be deleted using t-code CFP4.
