How to Change the Material Type from HAWA to Fert ?? Helppppp

[Former Member]

Hey ,

I made a mistake and assigned one of the material type wrongly..

Please help me change it from "trading goods" to "finished goods" ...??

I've tried one of the method but it gave me an error saying that " Valuated stock exist - different account category reference or no valuation data defined "

please help me as soon as you can ..

Thanks

If there are any Open Purchase Orders you can temporarily change message "326" for an "E"rror to a "W"arning, rather than closing them down

SAP Customizing Implementation Guide >Logistics - General >Material Master >Basic Settings >Define Attributes of System Messages

00 MM 326 There are still open purchase order items or scheduling agreements E

u can use the movement type 562 to reduce the stock to Zero and after changing the material type u can upload the stock by using movement type 561.

To change the materila type for any material by using MMAM,Please check the following things:

- Number rage for both material type should be same

- Account determination or valuation class for both material type should be same

- there should not be any open purchasing documents for this material

-Account Category refernce assigned for both the material type should be same so tht the accounting determination wrt to material type is not effected

-No Stock should exist .
