Hi ,
Could you please tell me how does it benefit me to classify an ecr and what would happen if i dont do it.
Also ,what is the use of ecm reporting class .
thanks in advance.
I cannot answer this question; I am not used to the terms ECR and ECM, never heard them before.
Maybe if you could mention transaction codes instead it might make "click" and I realize that I used it for a long time without knowing these terms.

No, this transaction code doesn't tell me anything more.
But without classification you cannot use some of the alternative search helps:
Classification is a feature to describe an object in more depth. It allows you to add information for which no designated field is designed.
Just an example for material master: assume you manufacture glass. you need info about the surface, about the thickness, the color, whether it is bullet proof or protects from UVA waves.
There is no chance to put this info into a 40 character long description, so you do not have anything to find the right material number easily., and no standard fields are available either to insert this info.
For such case you define the "fields" as characteristics, and group them under a class for glasses in above example, because you might have other materials that requires different characteristics to describe it. And the class is allocated to the material master. so you get the right fields to describe a certain material more detailed.
And the good thing is, classification search is an embedded functionality in SAPs standard search helps. It allows to search on any field used in your classification.
Hope this clears a bit what you will miss when you do not classify your object
please do not use uncommon abbreviations. explain what you understand under ecr and ecm
and why this question is related to logistics execution

Hi Jurgen,
From what I understand,classification helps us to find an ECR ..but I would like to know how would my search be affected if I dont classify it.
when I search for my ECR using f4 option ,i see the columns like created by,status etc. but I would like to know how this is related to ECM reporting class.
