Biswa,

Block from which activity(s)?

There are material blocks for sales type activities. In the Material Master (MM02), Sales org 1 tab, there is a field "x-distr chain status". In this field you can enter one of many possible status codes, each of which can represent a different combination of sales related activities that can be allowed/disallowed. If these codes are unsatisfactory, you can create new ones in configuration in OVSU.

There are also material blocks for procurement activities. In the Material master, Basic data 1 tab, find "X-plant material status". In this field, you can enter one of many possible codes, each of which can represent a different combination of procurement/production activities to be allowed/disallowed. Here too you can create new statuses, in OMS4

Setting the deletion flag, as mentioned in a previous post, also will prevent certain activities from being performed.

So, all in all, yes, you can block a material in many ways. However, you have to decide which ones, and then make the appropriate entries.

Hi there,

Have you tried flagging this material in MM06 for what ever plant and storage location you want to block?

Not sure if you can do a generic block.

Hope this helps.
