General purpose | Define the material types relevant for transfer to FSM and material type-dependent settings. |
|---|---|
Sending transaction (?) | /PACG/ECM_TRIG_ITEMT - Item Type (S4)PACG 200 SP09 You can navigate to the sending transaction using the button Send to FSM, placed on the toolbar. |
Object assignment (?) | Object ITEMTYPE must be added to /PACG/ECM_NOAS - No Object Assignment for a given company |

Customizing options
NEW LABEL (S4)PACG 200 SP10 OnlyIfOnStockOLD LABEL Storage Dep | Send to FSM only materials for which stock in FSM-relevant storage locations exists, or if material is used by any customer consignation. For FSM Cloud Connector versions (S4)PACG 200 SP1-SP10 this option would enable transfer of materials without sales organization data, as described here: https://proaxia-prod-doc.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PFCC/pages/31953976/PACG+ECM+ITYPE+Material+Group+and+Company+assignment#Plant-dependent-material. For (S4)PACG 200 SP11, a new field - ‘Plant-dep.’ is used to manage this functionality. Execution of the setup program automatically enables the new field for all material types, where ‘Storage dep.’ was active, to ensure backwards compatibilty. |
|---|---|
(S4)PACG 200 SP11 Plant-dep. | Allow transfer of materials without sales data, as long as they have plant data maintained and one of the below conditions is met:
This does not impact sales area-dependent materials. In transaction /PACG/ECM_EOAS - Object Assignment, ITEM should be assigned to SALES AREA. The plant-dependent option assumes that both sales and plant-dependent materials can be sent to FSM at the same time. Additionally, it should be ensured that MDOC object is assigned to the allowed plants in transaction /PACG/ECM_PLAS - Plant Assignment. |
Inventory Type | Indicates if materials of a given type are inventory items. |
Purchasing Type | Indicates if materials of a given type can be used for purchase orders. |
Sales Type | Indicates if materials of a given type can be used for sales order. |
GenZero | Material with this Checkbox will be sent to the cloud even when there are certain views missing in SAP. The stock value is set to 0- |
AddToText | This text will be added to the short text of a material. It can be used in the App to improve the search for material. |
Del Out Material | Delete material if replacement exists. |
Send Attachment | GOS-File Attachments (General Object Service) to a Material will be sent to the cloud. |
Send Vendor | Vendor assigned to a Material will be sent to the cloud. |
Send Owner | Owner assigned to a Material enables three options: Do not send, All items, Items with stock. |
NEW Remark Source | Depends of chosen option it is possible to send material from SAP, to FSM item Masterdata with different remarks:
This information will be taken from SAP MM and save in FIELD remarks in FSM Item Masterdata.   |
Add. screen for Rmat / OLD LABEL RM TrP | When the Reserved Material field ‘TrackPartEquipmentUsage’ is set to Decide whether the track equipment part flag should be set to ‘true’ for reserved materials sent to FSM. The available options are:
Please visit official FSM documentation for more information: SAP Help Portal - track part equipment usage   Please note that this field is available starting from 2202 Release. |
Is Tool | Any material type flagged as 'Is Tool' will be sent to SAP FSM as a tool of the type 'item'. Tools of the type item can be viewed via the Master Data view in SAP FSM WFM. Learn more about tools: Tools Management and usage |
Material’s serial type
ISTYPESERIAL property is no longer determined based on material type but for each material separately. During transfer of an item it is checked if it's serialized (serial number profile should be found in table MARC) and based on this the 'ISTYPESER' field in the idoc of type /PACG/ECM_ITYPE_ITEM is filled.
Plant dependent material
Some materials are not meant for sale and therefore are created only with plant/storage location data (no sales organization data).
Material without sales organization data will be transferred to SAP FSM if the following criteria are met:
the ‘Storage dependent’ field is set in /PACG/ECM_ITYPE for a relevant material type
the material’s plant and storage location (to be found in table MARD) are maintained in /PACG/ECM_WRHSE - FSM warehouse & additional owners (or in transaction /PACG/ECM_ITYPE, the ‘Generate zero’ field is enabled)
at least one sales area assignment for ITEM in /PACG/ECM_SAASG - Sales Area Assignment for the relevant company. The current implementation assumes that items will mostly be sent based on sales area assignment, there’s no plant or “no-object” assignment checked for ITEM
For plant-dependent materials transferred with an event after creating a purchase order or a material document, the process is slightly different. First, a relevant company is determined based on the document’s storage location. The storage location is searched for in transaction /PACG/ECM_WRHSE - E4C storage locations to send. Then for the company to which the storage location is assigned, it is checked if the ‘Storage dependent’ setting in transaction /PACG/ECM_ITYPE is activated. If those criteria are met, the item is relevant for transfer and standard outbound material processing can start.
setting ‘Gen zero’ is enabled in transaction /PACG/ECM_ITYPE – Material Group and Company assignment
the material exists for one of the storage locations entered as relevant for a given company in /PACG/ECM_WRHSE - FSM warehouse & additional owners (options ‘Gen zero’ in /PACG/ECM_ITYPE – Material Group and Company assignment as well as for the relevant storage location in /PACG/ECM_WRHSE - FSM warehouse & additional owners must be disabled in this case)
Process example
Material 68, company 1, plant 1000, storage location 1030, sales organization data not maintained.
The ‘Plant-dep’ field is enabled in transaction /PACG/ECM_ITYPE. Material’s storage location is maintained in transaction /PACG/ECM_WRHOUSE.
Transfer the material with the sending transaction. The material should be successfully sent.
If the ‘Plant-dep.’ field is unchecked in transaction /PACG/ECM_ITYPE, the material won’t be sent.
