50 REAL TIME SAP MM Interview Questions and Answers
1. What is the difference between a Purchase Requisition and a Purchase Order?

A PR is an internal document that sends notification to purchase department when some
material is service is required. PR can be generated by department that needs any material or
service. A PO is a document sent to vendor by purchaser which is an official request of mentioned
material or services. POs are generally binding on purchaser, though it depends on terms and
conditions mentioned in PO.
2. What are different Info Records types?

Different Info Record types are Standard, Consignment, Sub-Contracting and Pipeline.
3. What is aconsignment Stock?

The stock supplied by the vendor is in the purchasing company’s premises but the company has
no liability for the same. The liability for the company will only arise one the goods are issued from
the consignment stock for use. However, in this case, even before the use, purchasing company can
check in system how much stock is lying in inventory.
4. What is Sub-Contracting cycle in MM?

In Sub-contracting, we send raw material or input material to sub-contractor and then receive
the finished goods. A sub-contracting PO is created with item category ‘L’. Input material is sent to
vendor for processing with movement type 541. When GR is done using movement type 101,
movement type 543 takes place automatically and takes care of consumed material.
5. What is meant by Scales in MM?

When we maintain price in Info Records, we can make use of scales. It is used when price of a
material is dependent on quantity purchased. For eg. For 500 pieces of material ABC, price is Rs. 10,
however, if the order quantity is more than 500, price is Rs. 9. Scales are maintained in various
master data like info record, quota arrangement etc. from where scales can be pulled in a Purchase
Order.
6. How to Flag a material for deletion?

A material must be flagged for deletion before deleting it using Archive and Delete program. A
deletion flag can be set at client level, plant level or storage location level. Whatever level you flag a
material for deletion, it is flagged for deletion at all corresponding lower levels. Transaction MM06 is
used to flag a material for deletion.

7. Can a material be used after flagging it for deletion?

Yes, even after flagging a material for deletion, it can be used till it is actually deleted. It will
just trigger a warning message whenever the material is used. If you want a material to be blocked for
any use with immediate effect, you should use a material status which is there in Basic View 1 for
general level or in MRP 1 view for plant level blocking.

8. What is the function of OBYC?

OBYC is t-code used for configuring Automatic Account Posting. Postings are made to G/L
accounts automatically in the case of Inventory Management and Invoice Verification relevant to
Financial and Cost Accounting.
9. What is valuation grouping code related to OBYC?

Valuation grouping code is used to group the valuation area, In SAP, we can have valuation level
at Company code level or at plant level.General practice is to use the valuation area at plant level,
because valuation may differ from one plant to another. The valuation grouping code makes it easier
to set automatic account determination. If we need to define common account determination for
several valuation areas, we can assign same valuation grouping code to all those valuation areas. We
can maintain the valuation group code in OMWD for various valuation areas.

10. What types of special stocks are available?

Various special stock types available in SAP are Consignment, Subcontracting, pipeline,
project, sales order stock, Returnable transport packaging, stock transfer, and the third party.
11. What is the difference between Contracts and Scheduling Agreements?

A contract is a pre-determined long term agreement to supply material or service for a certain
period of time. Specific delivery dates are not mentioned in the contracts. Contracts can be of two
types: Value Contract or Quantity contract
In Scheduling agreements, we can enter scheduling lines which gives details of quantity that should
be delivered on specific date. Plant must be entered in SA so that materials can be delivered at plant.
These are generally used for materials whose requirements are predictable.
12. How can we create new transaction codes in SAP?

New transaction codes can be created using t-code SE93.
13. What are release procedures with and without classification?

Release Strategy with Classification:
PR can be released at header level as well as item level.It can be used for both internal/external
documents.Can be set on any field available in structure CEBAN
Release Strategy without Classification:

PR can be released only at item level.It can be used only for internal documents such as
PR. This strategy can be used only on 4 parameters which are Account assignment category,
Plant, Material Group and value of PR.

14. What is meant by batches?

A batch is a subset of the total stock of a material. It represents a homogeneous unit which has
unique specification. Normally, a batch is assigned to the quantity of material produced during a
given production run. A batch number uniqueness can be assigned at any of the following 3 levels:
At client level: The same batch number can be assigned only once within the entire client.
At material and plant combination level: Same batch number can be assigned to material with
different specification in each plant.
At material number level: A batch assigned to a material has the same specification for all plants
where material is extended. Batch number can be reassigned with a different specification for each
material.
15. How to handle free items in PO?

While creating PO, we can tick the item as free item in item overview section of PO. The price
will be zero for free marked item.
16. What information is maintained in Accounting View of material master?

Accounting view is a plant specific view. Besides other information, it contains important
information such as valuation class and price control. Valuation class helps in determining the
relevant GL account used for account posting. It is also used while configuring OBYC settings. Price
control indicator determines if material is maintained at Standard price(S) or Moving average price
(V).
17.What is the use of Material types?

‘Material Types’ is used to group various materials based on some common properties. It helps
in maintain material master data for a particular material. Using material types, we can control which
all views are required for a material type, which fields are required or optional, the material number
range etc.
18.What is the use of ‘Partner Functions’ for a vendor?

Partner Function is used to define responsibilities and duties of other business partners. Some
partner functions are AZ(Alternate payee), CR(Carrier), OA(Ordering address), GS(Goods supplier),
PI(Invoice presented by) etc.
19. What is the use of ‘Material Status’?

Material Status helps in determining the usability of a material. It is a 2-digit code which can be
maintained as plant specific material status, cross-plant material status, and distribution material
status.
20.What is the ‘Price Control Indicator’?

IGROWSOFT
PH: 040-40027680,8885503231,8790793859
www.igrowsoft.com
‘Price Control Indicator’ is maintained in accounting view and is used to determine how a
material will be valuated. It can be Standard Price(S) or Moving Average Price(V). If the indicator is
set to S, all inventory postings are posted at standard price maintained in material master. If there are
variances in any transaction due to different price, the variance is posted in price difference account.
IGROWSOFT
PH: 040-40027680,8885503231,8790793859
www.igrowsoft.com
If price control indicator is set at V, goods received will be done at GR price. The moving average
price will be adjusted in material master using weighted average formula. If goods movements or
invoice receipts are posted using a price that differs from the moving average price, the differences
are posted to the stock account.
21.What are various types of Stock transfer?

The physical movement of stock between different physical locations is called as ‘Stock
transfer’. Stock transfer can be either a single step process or a two-step process. Various Stock
transfers are: Inter Company (Company to Company)
Inter Plant/Intra Company (Plant to Plant)
Intra Plant (Storage location to Storage location)
22.What are various Stock Types?

In SAP, commonly used stock types are:
Unrestricted Stock (Stock that is available for use)
Restricted Stock
Quality Inspection Stock (Not the unrestricted stock but can be considered for MRP)
Blocked Stock (Stock rejected by quality or production)
GR Blocked Stock (Conditionally accepted stock. Not the unrestricted stock)
23.What are various procedures for counting Physical Inventory?

Physical Inventory procedures in SAP MM are as follows:
Periodic Inventory (All stocks are counted on a pre-determined date)
Continuous Inventory (stocks are counted continuously during the entire fiscal year)
Cycle Counting (Counting is done at fixed intervals)
Inventory Sampling (Randomly selected material stocks are physically counted on the balance sheet
key date. If variances are small enough, it is presumed that the book inventory balances for the other
stocks are correct.)
24.What is the use of ‘Split Valuation’?

Within a valuation area, sometimes, we need to valuate various stocks of a material separately.
It can be because of different origin, quality, status, etc. We use split valuation in such cases. In this
case, material is managed at several partial stocks which are sub-stocks of main material stock. Any
transaction, relevant for valuation, is carried at this partial stock level. In accounting view, we define
if we need split valuation for any material.
25.What are the various stock valuation methods?

IGROWSOFT
PH: 040-40027680,8885503231,8790793859
www.igrowsoft.com
Stock revaluation can be done by following three methods:

LIFO(Last In First Out): Materials received last are consumed first. You can assume example of
elevator where people who enter last exit first!
FIFO(First In Firs Out): Materials received first are consumed first. Lowest Value Method: Stocks are
valued at their original price or the current market price whichever is lower.

26.How do you set ‘Automatic Account Assignment’ in MM?

Once OBYC settings are properly done, system finds the correct G/L account using the
following data:
Chart of Accounts: Chart of Accounts is determined based on plant or company code used in
transaction
Valuation Grouping Code: It is determined based on the valuation area. Valuation Grouping Code is
maintained in t-code OMWD.
Transaction Key: eg. BSX, GBB etc. Transaction keys are determined automatically from the
transaction (invoice verification) or the movement type (inventory management).
Account grouping /Account Modifier (only for offsetting entries, consignment liabilities, and price
differences)
Valuation class of material or (in case of split valuation) the valuation type: The valuation class
allows you to define automatic account determination that is dependent on the material. This can be
achieved by assigning different valuation classes to the materials in material master (Accounting
view) and by assigning different G/L accounts to the posting transaction for every valuation class
27. What are ‘Transaction Keys’ while setting OBYC?

Since each movement type is assigned to a ‘value string’ which in turn is identified with a transaction
key, the goods movement determines the correct transaction key. Transaction Keys’ are pre-defined in
the system to enable transaction postings in Inventory Management and Accounting (Invoice
Verification). Examples of pre-defined transaction keys are:
BSX (Inventory Postings)
WRX (GR/IR Clearing Postings)
PRD (Cost/Price differences)
UMB (Revenue/Expenses from revaluation)
GBB (Offsetting entries in Stock postings)BSX, WRX, and PRD are relevant for a GR with reference
to a purchase order for a material with standard price control. The transaction key UMB is used when
the standard price has changed and the movement is posted to a previous period. GBB is used to
identify the GL account to post to as the offsetting entry to the stock account (when not referencing a
purchase order) such as miscellaneous goods receipts, goods issues for sales orders with no account
assignment, and scrapping etc.
28. What is a Business Area?

The business area is an organizational unit within financial accounting. It corresponds to a
defined business segment or area of responsibility, to which value movements recorded in Financial
Accounting can be assigned. It is usually derived automatically as it linked to other organizational
units. For eg. Business area for a combination of plant and division is maintained by t-code OMJ7.

controlling area which represents a defined location of cost incurrence. For example, any department
can be a cost center for recording all expenses incurred for that department.
30. What is a Profit Center?

Profit Center Accounting evaluates the profit or loss of individual, independent areas within
an organization. Profit center is an organizational unit in controlling to recognize your profit.
Profit center is attached to material master at plant level.
31. How to create Tax calculation procedure in MM?

Tax can be calculated for each line item of a PO separately based on the tax code. Earlier
TAXINJ, which is a formula based tax procedure, was used. Now, TAXINN, which is a condition
based tax procedure, is generally used. Tax procedure contains the condition type and necessary
specification for each condition type. Account keys are assigned to condition types and these account
keys determine the G/L to which the tax amount is to be posted(OB40). These account keys are
maintained using t-code OBCN. (All these transactions are under Financial Accounting Global
Settings >> Tax on Sales/Purchases >> Basic Settings). Tax codes are assigned to country codes and
country are linked with tax procedure. Thus, based on tax code, corresponding tax procedure is
determined and then calculation is done based on condition types in that tax procedure.
32. How is scrap material taken care of in sub-contracting?

Scrap can be maintained in BOM as operational scrap, component scrap, By-Product or Co-
Product. Common practice is to maintain scrap as by-product and receive it back along with
processed material.
33. How are the by-products taken care of in sub-contracting?

When you create BOM using CS01, we can maintain main components with + ve quantities
and By Products / Scraps with – ve quantities.
When you make Goods Receipt for Subcontracting Purchase Order with 101 movement type,
components are automatically consumed with movement type 543 By Products / Scrap are updated as
stock provided to vendor movement type 545. Now we can receive this scrap/ By product back in
company’s inventory using movement type 542 (reversal of 541) with t-code MB1B.
34. What are the commonly used movement types in Sub-Contracting process?
541 – Issues of goods from warehouse to subcontractoru2019s stock
542 – Reversals of goods issues from warehouse to subcontractoru2019s stock
543 – Consumption from subcontracting stock (Automatic updating during GR)
544- Co-products receiving

35. What are accounting entries in standard sub-contracting process?

Accounting entries in standard sub-contracting process are as follows:
For finished goods received:
Debit stock account of assembly(FG) (BSX)
Credit Change in Stock (BSV)
For amount payable to vendor:
Debit SC/JW charges (FRL)
Credit GR/IR (WRX)
For material provided to vendor:
Debit Consumption Account of components (GBB-VBO)
Credit Stock account of components (BSX)
If there is a price difference and customization is done for accounting for price difference in
subcontracting, PRD transaction key comes in picture.
36. What are the possible values of procurement type in Material Master?

MRP1 view should be maintained (e.g.. Reorder point, Safety stock etc.)
MRP2 view should be maintained (e.g.. Plan delivery time etc.)
MRP can be run using MD03
38. What is a MRP Area?

MRP Area is an organizational unit for which material requirement planning can be carried out
independently. MRP Areas are of three types:
Plant MRP Area
MRP Areas for Storage Locations
MRP Areas for Subcontractors

centrally agreed contracts or release orders contained in the assigned reference purchasing
organization
42. Why do we use document types in SAP?

Document types are used to distinguish the business transactions to be posted. It also helps
in determining the account types to be posted and subsequent transactions to complete the process.
Document types are defined at client level.
43. Can we receive the goods before the scheduled delivery date in scheduling agreement?
No, we cannot receive the goods before scheduled delivery date. GR can be posted on or after
the scheduled dates. Though, SAP has provided some OSS notes to resolve this. (708973, 741385)
44. Can changes be made in PO once it is released?

This can be controlled by settings given in release indicator in PO release procedure. If it is
a significant change, it will re-trigger approval cycle.
45. What is the use of ‘Info Update’ indicator in purchasing documents?

This indicator is used to decide if the info record is to be created/updated or not based on
this purchasing document.
46. What is a Material Ledger?

A material ledger retains all transactions that relate to the purchase and use of materials for
producing goods. Material ledger data is valuation and control data for a material in a plant for a
specific posting period. Material ledger contains data for material movements that are relevant to the
valuation of the material.

6. WHY WE MUST ASSIGN PLANT WITH COMPNAY CODE?

To maintain the valuation process and a plant is a site operating as a production facility or an
individual/group of storage areas close together for a company. A plant can only belong to only one
company code.
7. WHAT IS REFERENCE PURCHASE ORGANIZATION?

A central PORG can exist side by side with local purchase organization, the local purchase
department can use contracts or conditions created by central purchase organization. You can assign
several purchasing organizations to one reference purchasing organization, but each individual
purchasing organization should be assigned to just one reference purchasing organization.

Reservation, PR, Contracts & If the accounting type differs. Initially stock has to be cleared , by
moving all the material to a special stock.
11. IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE VALUATION CLASS? WHAT IS THE IMPACT?

Yes, If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows: a) Post
the stocks of the material to an interim account. b) Change the valuation class in the material master
record. c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account. If open purchase orders
already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase
order items for deletion. If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken
place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to
Deleted.
12. IS IT POSSIBLE TO CHANGE PRICE CONTROL? WHAT IS THE IMPACT? Changing

the material valuation price does not involve material master, it is an accounting transaction in which
the total stock of the plant is revaluated. In price control S, if the MAP which reflect the development
of the delivered price, differs too greatly from the standard price. In price control V, the system

record.
Sources are administered using source lists and quota arrangements. Source list records and quota
arrangements are used in source determination Buyers are not allowed to buy from the blocked
sources.
The MRP indicator in the source list stipulates how the source defined in a source list record is
taken into account in materials planning.
The purpose of source determination is to make it possible for a purchase requisition to be assigned
to a source automatically.
If a source list requirement exists, a material may not be procured from other sources other than
those included in the source list. Can be maintained manually, from Outline agreement, from PIR,

100. EXPLAIN THE PROCESS OF AAD?
The system should automatically determine the relevant G/L a/c for each transaction in MM
BSX – Inventory Posting
WRX – GR/IR clearing a/c
PRD – Price difference
We can configure automatic posting to the MM areas such as Inventory Management & Invoice
Verification
Influencing factors of Automatic postings
1. Organization level i.e. Chart of a/c & Val grouping code
2. Chart of a/c
3. Material type & Valuation Class
4. Based on Movement type
5. AG Account Grouping or Account Modifier
Posting Keys are Independent from chart of a/c.
We must assign chart of a/c to each company code
We must configure AAD for each chart of a/c
Valuation grouping code is maintained at chart of a/c level.
First activate Valuation Grouping code (valuation modifier)
Define valuation level
Valuation class is a key for a/c determination. It determines the G/L a/c for material types.
A material type may have several valuation classes & vice versa.
The link between material type & valuation class is Account category reference
If material subject to split valuation R/3 determines valuation class for the valuation type
Valuation String contains Transaction / Event keys. We can't assign them in R/3
First value string triggered based on Material Type, transaction, PO type, Special Stock, a/c
assignment category for Movement type.
Account Grouping / a/c modifier / General Modifier
We assign a/c grouping to each movement type in OMWN

If a material is subject to split valuation, you can valuate partial stock of this material at different
prices and manage them using separate accounts.
If a material is split valuated, you can mention in PO, which valuation type you can enter for a
material is determined by valuation category
The valuation category is defined in the Material master of a material. It determines whether the
material is subject o split valuation . The specified material type also should be maintained in the
material master.
106. WHAT IS THE DIFF. BETWEEN BATCH MANAGEMNT & USING VALUATION
CATEGORY ‘X’?
Reason for Batch Management – 1. Defect tracking, Call back activities used for hazardous
materials, chemicals & pharma.

We can use split valuation for batches if value based IM, The Batch No. is Valuation type.
Valuation category ‘x’ is used for Batch Management, and The Batch No. itself is the Valuation type.
107. WHY MAP USED IN SPLIT VALUATION?
Moving Average Price is used because, is a material is created using split valuation, it
indicates that the procurement is subject to change often and the stock should be valuated
accordingly.
