Try with USEREXIT_CUST_MATERIAL_READ in program MV45AFZB

Hello,

For making the Cusotmer material Number field mandatory in Sales Order, you will either have to customize Incompletion Procedure or simply mark the field as mandatory in Screen Variant (T-Code SHD0).

Thanks,

Hello Jignesh & Alan,

Greetings...

I have one question either SHD0 or Incompletion log can restrict to fill the CMR field with wrong data means which is not at all the Cust Info Record.

Unlike Read Info Record in VOV8 will always help to fill up the exact value from VD51.

Please note that if someone erase or fill wrong data it will again fill up the exact CMR value from VD51.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

I have tested the scenario Incompletion log  but not helped to fetch the Info record.

Thanks,

If CMR value is wrong, During SO create wrong data, incompletion log or SHD0 will not help.

Incompletion log is just to check if the field is filled in or not whether manually or automatically through VOV8 setting.

If you want SO to always get from CMR and don't acept user input, perhaps using SHD0 to make this field as display only and then use incompletion log to always check if field is filled in during VA01. If user did not maintain CMR, then user has to maintain first before creating SO.

VOV8 Read Info record is useful. But it only read if it exists.

To make it mandatory. Try transaction variant SHD0. Mark the field as a required field and it will always prompt user to enter.

Go to VOV8, select your sale order type and check the box "Read info record" and save.  Now create a sale order and update here.

Dear lakshmipsthi Sir,

I think VOV8 "Read info record" is a good solution instead of making it in the Incompletion log.

As per my understanding,please correct me if I am wrong,Read InfoRecord will help to fill up the correct Customer Material info record whereas Incompletion log is only help to make a data entry in the Customer material inforecord field.Anyone can change it to wrong inforecord which creates misunderstanding.

It is nice have such important solution in a very small config change.

It is been always a great learning from your post.

Thanks,

If you see the original query, system should prevent if the CMR field in sale order is blank.  For this, whatever I suggested will holds good.

Hi,

This can be achieved by "Incompletetion Procedure"With this ,you can make a Customer Material Number a Mandatory in  Va01.Plese click F1 on what  field you want Mandatory in Sales Order and click on Technical Name and put this Field as a Mandatory in Incomplete Procedure.

If you don't mind please search in Google with Incomplete Procedure there you can get N-Number of threads.

Please let me know if you have any doubts.

Thanks,

Two options I can think of, first one as you have found out, using incompletion procedure and if that does not work, then use USEREXIT_CUST_MATERIAL_READ in program MV45AFZB to provide hard error.
