Hi,

The parameters material type and industry sector are used

to classify a material. They define its possible uses.

For example if you selct indutsry type as retail or mechanical it will classssify the material accordingly. again material type is semifinished then this you can also use as a raw material. In mm02 or MM03 u cant see it.

If you want to see these you can go to SE16 and put table name MARA and can see it.

Hope this will help.

Reward point if helpful.

Thanks,

In MM02/MM03 if u go to any tab, there is one information button(blue colour) Press on that, u will get the details of Industry sector and Material type.

You can check the material type in MARA database table.
