Selling Material From Multiple Plants

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have two questions.

1. Is it possible to have more than one division for a material. If Yes, how we can do this.

2. How to sell a material from multiple plants. What is the procedure,

Thanks,

hello, friend.

1. is it possible for a material to have 2 or more divisions? yes and no.

yes, if you leave the division in the material master blank. the material, when processed in the sales order, then copies the division from the sales area of sales document.

yes, if you configure cross-division, or if you configured the 'check division' options in the sales document type via VOV8.

no, if you specified the division in the material master and you have made a sales transaction. (it would still be a yes, if you made the right configurations using VOV8 described above).

2. how do you sell material from different plants? by extending the material to the different sales org-distribution channel-plant using MM01. be sure to maintain the Sales org 1 & 2, and Sales general/plant views for each combination.

regards.

1. Can not have multiple divisions in the material master but you can have materials from multiple divisions in a sales order if you allow divisions to be picked from item.

2. Extend material master to plants from which you want to make sales and also make sure that this plant is assigned to your sales org and distribution channel combination.

Once you have done this then you are set to make sales from multiple plants.
