Material Master Data
 An advantage of the SAP system is that it maintains one set of
data in real time. Material data is used by many functional areas.
In the SAP system, there is one set of related data for each
material. With non-integrated systems, each system may contain
material data, and this data is not always consistent. In the SAP
system, the data is consistently correct or incorrect.
 Material Master data is organized by Views. Depending on the
type of material, only certain views need to be used. As the
system is configured, additional views can be added as
necessary.
 Many Material Master views are plant-specific

Purchasing Info Record
 Purchasing info records can be created directly, as we
will do in this class, or can be created automatically
when a purchasing document (e.g. purchase order) is
created or changed.
 The Purchasing Info Record can be created
automatically from a purchase order if the Info Update
indicator is set.
 Conditions is SAP’s term for pricing, which can
include discounts, freight costs, surcharges, etc.
