Applying Other Customizing Settings

In this step you can hide individual fields or buttons that you do not require. You can also define fields for which you want to ensure that an entry is made as required entries, for example, Delivery note and Bill of lading.

The settings can be found in Customizing for Materials Management under Inventory Management and Physical Inventory→Settings for Goods Movements (MIGO)→Field Selection for MIGO (transaction OMJX).

In the standard SAP system, all configurable fields are defined as optional entry fields except for the Goods Receipt/Issue Slip field. This field is hidden in the standard system because it is only required in some countries, such as Italy.

To make the settings for the movement-type-dependent field selection, go to Customizing for Materials Management under Inventory Management and Physical Inventory→Settings for Goods Movements (MIGO)→Field Selection per Movement Type. You can also define the settings in the Customizing activity Copy, Change Movement Types. You determine for each field whether an entry is optional or required.

The table contains all the fields that are visible on the screen interface. For these fields, choose either the optional entry or the required entry. To hide a field, delete the required entry from the table. There is no difference between the various special stock indicators in the entries. If relevant, the system displays special stock fields automatically.

To show a hidden field, choose the New Entry button. Then, enter the movement type and select the field to be inserted from the list of input options.

To make these settings, go to Customizing for Materials Management under Inventory Management and Physical Inventory→Settings for Goods Movements (MIGO)→Settings for Transactions and Reference Documents.
