SAP Note 593215 - MM17 does not work with message type OILMAT

Component : Hydrocarbon Product Management - Cross-application Mass Change

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/593215 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
After implementing SAP Note 576160, users of the IS-OIL R/3 system experienced issues with mass maintenance transaction MM17. The note was aimed at enabling changes to IS-OIL-specific fields during mass maintenance by switching ALE inbound processing to use MESSAGE_TYPE 'OILMAT'. However, this change led to a system-wide failure in processing both standard and IS-OIL-specific fields due to missing IS-OIL subsegments when IDOCs are processed. The issue, due to a programming error, particularly affects scenarios where not all leading tables in IDOC hierarchy are selected during mass maintenance. An advance manual correction is recommended for resolution.

Key words :
-oil-specific ale inbound processing generally ignores e1maram, ale inbound processing generally, message type message_type = 'matmas', -oil specific ale inbound, message type message_type = 'oilmat', ale inbound processing, material master mass maintenance, -oil-specific fields, leading segment e1maram, material master maintenance
