Master Data for Chemical Compliance Approval for PurchasedMaterial and Supplier

Required Master Data Scripts

To run this process you need the following master data:

  • Materials

  • Material BOM

Master Data: Material

The material or product master contains information about all the physical materials that are procured, produced, stored and sold. It is also used to manage information about services e.g. for buying and selling services in hours.

The material master holds information such as unique material number, name, material type, unit of measure, descriptions, weight and dimensions. This material information is used and stored in transactions such as sales orders, deliveries, purchase orders and goods movements.

As all information for one material is stored centrally, material master information is organized into different views. For example, sales, storage, MRP, costing and accounting.

Some information in each material is specific to particular organizational units. For example, a sales description is specific to a sales unit (known as sales area), a MRP controller is specific to a specific site (known as a plant) or some information might be specific to a storage location.
