Generic Articles and POS

[Former Member]

Hi

I have created Generic articles using variants,

1)Are there EANs are different for each variants or how POS system works for single material code(Is it single EAN for all vaiants?)

2) Do i need any POS configuration for generic articles to send to POS via outbound profile or its works like single aritlce

3) Give me how exatly generic articles works with respect to POS system.

thanks

Hi,

you need to define EAN for each variant article . and not need to change POS outbound configuration. just sent variant of particular article during master data distribution.

Hi ,

you can define it on characteristic. then use enhancement segment of IDOC for sending this brad Value to POS

If you use ERP ECC 6.0, then there is no need for a characteristic. Field MARA-BRAND_ID is available as standard field and can be used for generic articles.

Hi

Goto to IMG --> Logistics - General -->Material Master --> Retail-Specific Settings --> Settings for Key Fields --> Edit Brands

There create your Brand, then assign your brand in Article Master --> Basic Data View

Hi,

the field "Brand" is only displayed in the Retail for Fashion Tab Strip.

Please check SPRO --> Logistics - General --> Article Master --> Configuring the Article Master --> Assign Screen Sequences to User/Article Type/Transaction/Industry Sector which Screen Sequence is assigned to the article type of your article.
