Hi,

You can copy ROH & rename material type as ZCCO for chemical & consumable. If at end separate inventory required for chemical & consumable, you can create different valuation class for chemical & consumable and then create material for chemical & consumable with material type ZCCO & new valuation class for material type ZCCO.

it also depends upon the procurement like external or internal ?and a consumable can be NLAG non valuated but stockable .For stock items use ROH if it is being used as a raw material.Please eloborate your requirement like for which purpose you want to use these materials etc then a exact type will be suggested.

from your question it is under stood that you want to create a material type for a chemical whixch is a consumable, if my understanding is correct.If this is the case you can use the std types nlag OR unbw and copy to a z name say ZCC at spro--logistics general material master- basic settings

does the materials you want to create comes under Chemical indutry and of type consumables?A material created can be a chemical belongs to ROH or FERT etc .

Decide about your requirement and you can create ypur material type at spro mentioned.

We need to create two separate material types Chemical & Consumable. This will be a stock item & not salleable thus FERT goes out of the picture. Which other material types suits the requirement best?

[Former Member]

You can use

ROH for Chemicals

ERSA for consumables.

Hi,

As I said earlier go for copying ROH & rename a material type for Chemical & Consumable as materials will be stock item & not saleable . Where is question of FERT now!.
