Duplicate Check

[former_member655664]

Hi ,

We are trying to configure Duplicate check with out Hana in MDG 7.0. based on Material fields Manufacturer part number and Class details. We configured every thing correctly. But still we are unable to get pop up window while creating material.

Hi,

Make sure the ESH index tables are created and up to date (can take some time).

Did you also mark the request type and step as relevant for duplicate check (MDGIMG --> Configure Properties of Change Request Step --> Enhancement and checks per Change Request Step)

Thanks for the reply kiran and Henk. I think my question is wrong. Actually the duplicate check will work only for SU type 1. But here the requirement is the duplicate check should work on class + manufacture part number. Class is SU type 3 and Manufacture part number is under SU type 4 attribute. I know duplicate check will not work for SU type 3 and 4s. If it is on SU type 3 how to extend the Abap class. Please help me on this.

Hi,

If you use the HANA search application there are no restrictions on the entities and attributes you can use. As long as they are related to MATERIAL.

Cheers,

Hi Lakshmi,

How do you know duplicate check is not working for entity 3 and 4? It is not in the customizing help. I never used ES for duplicate check. But I did use DQM, HANA and BAS. And in all cases entity 3 and 4 was supported.

ES also supports search on entity 3 and 4. And the standard deliverd match profile contains entities CLASSASGN and VALUATION (next to MATERIAL).

So why would duplicate check not work for Class and Manufacture part number?

Cheers,

Henk.

Henk,

If ES is helpful to maintain duplicate check for SU types 3 and 4. Please give me steps . So that will double check with my configuration steps. In my project we are not using SAP HANA, DQM and BAS.

Hi Lakshmi,

Transaction MDGIMG --> Define Search Application

For Search mode ES set up Match Profile:

Data model         MM

Match profil Id. MATCH_MM_MATERIAL

Entity   type	Attribute	Mandatory	Sequence
CLASSASGN	CLASS		11
CLASSASGN	CLASSTYPE		12
MATERIAL	BERGU		10
MATERIAL	BISMT
MATERIAL	EXTWG		8
MATERIAL	LABOR		7
MATERIAL	MATKL		5
MATERIAL	MBRSH	X	3
MATERIAL	MEINS	X	4
MATERIAL	MTART	X	2
MATERIAL	PRDHA		6
MATERIAL	TXTMI	X	1
MARAPURCH	MFRNR		9

Transaction MDGIMG --> Configure Duplicate check for entity types

Use search mode ES and Match profile as used in previous
step (MATCH_MM_MATERIAL).

Henk,

Thanks for the reply. But still I am unable to get pop up box for Duplicate check. If the entity and attribute is under SU type 1 then I am able to get. But if it is SU type 3 I am unable to get pop up for Duplicate check. and also I think if we add the SU type 3 and 4 entities under allocation of entities ( 3rd step under Define search applications) then we can get message for duplicate check too. But in that step we can only assign SU type 1. Do you know how to add SU type 3 and 4 in that step..?

[henk_verdaasdonk4]

Under allocation you should only assign entities of type 1. All sub entities (3 and 4) are then also considered by the search. So in this case only MM MATERIAL.

If you use the normal MDG search are you then able to search on Manufacturer number?

Are the ESH indexes up to date? If you use transaciton ESH_SEARCH --> Expert mode --> Search in: Material. Can you then search on Manufacturer number? Same for classification?

Henk.

Hi

Remove the thresh-hold % and then check.
