Hey Guys
Here is the requirement - We want to sell "Product A" with different description and price to the same customer.

Hi Vikas
In my view, you can not have diffrent descriptions (Material short text) for the same material.
Material description/ Material short text is maintained independent of any organisational units , its a part of Basic data in the material master.
For your requirement, you need to create different material master data for different varieties of material.
you can go for Cust-material info record and specify the material for different combination of cust/material.
Also, you can go for material substitution as another option to fulfill your requirement.

Hi,
Material determination enables the automatic substitution of materials in sales documents during sales order processing. For example, during the course of a sales promotion, the system can, during sales order entry, automatically substitute a material that has promotional packaging.
tcode: VB11 - create material determination
spro --> basic function --> material determination
thanks.

Hi All,
This kind of requirements may come from an Electronics industry also.
Say for example, they are manufacturing Capacitors. Capacitors available with the unit of Farad.
They may manufacture 2 Farad, 4 Farad, 6 Farad capacitors, and their manufacturing cost also same in these ranges.
So what they do is, they manufacture 6 Farad capacitors and this will be used as 2 Farad and 4 Farad also.
So they need different description for the same product.
One more great example is Painting industry, all the qualities may be same for the product except colour, so here also we need the same scenario.

Hi
Do you want to sell the same material with a different name? This is a common practise in few industry sectors like agro chemicals. They sell the same material to the same customer with different brand names.
In such case you have to create a different Material Master record and name the product as say, Product B. Create the pricing condition records for this product B and can create the order for this material.
Thanks,
Ravi

Dear Vikas,
I believe you can use Material Determination Functionality.
Create a Different material Number copying the existing material with required description.
Maintain material Determination
IMG >> SD>> Basic Func >> Material Determination
Then Maintain the record in VB11.
Maintain Pricing condition records for the newly created material.
Material determination is used normally in Festive season like diwali or promotions where same prodcut with different packing needs to be delivered with different pricing.
Hope resolves your problem.

Paresh

Hi Vikas,
I think you can change the description manually in the Sales Order.....since your requirement is for same customer VD51 will not work for you......
Thanks & Regards,

Vikas Advani ,
You can use Customer material Inf Record for this purpose. TCode VD51
Logistics --> Sales and Distribution --> Master Data --> Agreements --> Customer Material Information --> VD51 - Create
Enter the Customer, Sales organization, Distribution Channel and press enter
Inside the screen you enter the Material, and you are provided with a column " Cust. Material" wherein you can enter the description. and save it.
And try using the altered material in transaction and check.

HI
Maintain Customer material info record in VD51 for that customer and also maintain PR00 condition record with fields as customer/material.
for this you have to maintain the price as customer/material specific

Hi Vikas,
Ttry using customer / material info record ( VD51) to have different description.
Price - make the condition record as editable so that you can change in the sales order.
Thanks
