*Material Master
* *Q: *How can I extend all material to a new plant?
*A:* The SAP program - RMDATIND is used to create /update material master record.
*Q:* How can we delete materials permanently from Material master?
*A:* Use transaction MM70 - Material
Master->Other->Reorganization->Material->Choose. Build variant with selection range of material master records to be selected for deletion and maintain run parameters. Execute.
Use transaction MM71 - Material Master-> other-> Reorganization->Material->Reorganization Build a second variant Maintain run parameters and execute. It is also important to remove the records manually from info record, POs, PRs, reservation etc for successful deletion of the material.
*Q:* SAP only provides moving average value for current, previous period, and previous year. SAP does not provide transactions/reports that will provide moving average value for a given date.
How can I report moving average price for material number 10000000 at plant 0001 on July 4, 1998.
*A:* Try any of these solutions:
1. Change the updating level of the structure (S031) to "daily". In LIS the total value and the total stock are available. Divide value by the stock. It is possible to calculate this dynamically when the analysis is run and to display the result.
2. Create your own structure in LIS and populate it by copying the Moving Average Price from the material master every time there is a transaction. You will have data on those days when there was a transaction.
