1. Introduction

The material master contains information on all the materials that a Fiskars procures or

produces, stores, and sells. It is the Fisrkars central source for retrieving material-specific

data. This information is stored in individual material master records.

The material master is used by all components in SAP. The integration of all material data

in a single database object eliminates redundant data storage. In the SAP Logistics System,

the data contained in the material master is required, for example, for the following

functions:

- In Purchasing for ordering

- In Inventory Management for goods movement postings and physical inventory

- In Invoice Verification for posting invoices

- In Sales and Distribution for sales order processing

- In Production Planning and Control for material requirements planning, scheduling,and work Scheduling

1.1 Material Type

It is a key that assigns the material to a group of materials such as Raw materials, trading goods.

This allows you to manage different materials in a uniform manner in accordance with your

company's requirements.

The Material type defines certain attributes of the material and has important control functions.

W hen creating a material master record, the material type determines: Whether the material number is assigned internally or externally

From which number range interval the material number comes

Which screens are displayed

The order in which screens are displayed

Which department-specific data is displayed for the user to enter

Material types in Fiskars:

-Master Box (MBX) : Number of Consumer Packs within one Master Box

- Pallet (PAL) : Number of Consumer Packs on one standard Pallet

Multiple other Alternmative UoM’s can be maintained in addition to these.

Consumer item (CI) : The stock keeping unit consists of multiple products (e.g. acarton with two glasses). Customers are allowed to order single glasses and therefore we

need to introduce a new alternative unit of measure. In this example 2 CI will be 1 PC.

The customer can order the CI by using the EAN of that belongs to the UoM CI.

3.3 Material Classification


SCC1

Scope


Material Class Name used to uniquely identify a class withina class type.

Yes Yes CLASS CHAR 18

Characteristic Name that uniquely identifies a characteristic. Yes Yes ATNAM CHAR 30

The material classification will be used to classify both material(raw/pack), semi finished and

finished product.



Material Master



Not all product attributes are stored in a material classification characteristic. The material

classification is only used for the product attributes that are independent of the location. When

the product / material exists in more than one plant (factory or DC) and when the attributes are

not the same in both plants, the material class characteristic can not be used. Instead the material

determination functionality is used for example to store the old material number for sales related

processes. In other areas such as manufacturing, the plant dependent attributes are stored in thematerial master itself (work scheduling or separate view).

The following classes are created per material type:

Z_PROD_ZALB Semi finished products

Z_PROD_ZAMP Sample products

Z_PROD_ZCON Consumables

Z_PROD_ZERP Packing material

Z_PROD_ZERT Finished product

Z_PROD_ZNBW Non valuated

Z_PROD_ZROH Raw material

Note: other material attributes are stored in the material master. Either with standard SAP fields

(e.g. material group and planning strategy) or with custom developed fields (e.g. Manufacturing

reference, general manufacturing reference, mold on the work scheduling view).

Products are sometimes sold in composites being:

Multiple of the same product in one package

Multiple products in one package

These composites need to be broken down to the base products to be capable of creating thereports with the right content.

In SAP we need to distinguish base products from other products by creating a new attribute

indicating so. The classification on the material master will be used for this purpose:

A characteristic Z_BASE_PRODUCT is used with one value Y (= Yes) and the characteristic

will be assigned to class Z_PROD_ZERT and Z_PROD_ZALB .

The Values of all the specific characteristics are defined within a separate document “Product

classification that can be found here:

Batch entry

Indicator that defines when batches have todetermined during the production process.The indicator refers to the components (semif

finished component) of an order, not to thefinished product to be manufactured. Thefollowing options exist:

- Batches are determined when the GI

is posted (used).- The batch must be entered in the order

prior to the release (not used)- The batches must be entered in the

order, before it is released.- The batches must be entered in the

order before the goods issue is posted,

but not necessarily before the order

release.- The batches are determined

automatically when the order isreleased.

For Fiskars, only the finished goods are batch

managed. Only in these cases that a finished product is used as a component in the BOM,

this setting applies (repacking in DC whenmaterial thus batch needs to change, or reworkon finished products).

06/11/2012 Comment: due to batch

determination requirements in case displaysare created, the value should be ‘3’ (automatic

batch determination on order release) in casethere is only one batch for this material (incase material is either purchased from onevendor or created in house), or ‘1’ (manual batch determination upon release of order) in

case there can be multiple batches (material is purchased and created in-house or purchasedfrom several vendors).

No Yes KZECH 1

Batch management

Indicator that specifies whether the material ismanaged in batches. The indicator can be set

in the material master record manually.

The indicator cannot be changed if stocksexist in either the current or in the previous period. This makes it hard to make the setting

To cover the Fiskars requirements, it isenough if only the finished products (materialtype ZERT) are marked as being batch

managed.

ZALB – semifinished materials

Semi-finished products can be procured externally and manufactured in-house. They are then

processed by the company. A material master record of this material type can contain both

purchasing and work scheduling data.

process. A material master record of this type contains purchasing data, but not sales data since

they cannot be sold.

4.2 Product Hierarchy

The product hierarchy groups materials by combining different characteristics. Each

characteristic is represented by a specific product hierarchy level.

4.3 Material Status

The status of the material can be defined on multiple levels:

• X-Plant Material StatusIndicates whether the material may be used in the some specific areas for all plants:

• Plant Specific Material StatusIndicates whether, for a specific plant, the material may be used in the specific areas

• X-Distribution Chain StatusIndicates whether the material may be used in individual functions in Sales and Distribution

for all distribution chains.

• Distribution Chain Specific Status

Indicates whether, for a specific distribution chain, the material may be used in individualfunctions in Sales and Distribution.

The setup the complete Material Status will be based on the total Product Life Cycle definition,

but this is not yet in place. An temporary definition of the Material Status is required for the SC

In Fiskars 1 batch per vendor will be created that is related to all materials related to that

material per plant/Storage locations. This means that one unique batchnumber is created for the

combination material/vendor and that this unique batch will be enriched for the Plant/storage

locations that are in scope of usage.

Batch Determination record.

For the batch determination a record is needed for batch strategy. The batch determination is in

scope for the Sales processes and the determination is activated for the sales order documents. In
