For the functionality of the SAP Requisition Interface, Smart Materials needs some additional information. This will be maintained as Interface Settings on the A.70.11 screen.
The following table lists all the needed interface settings (see also the SAP Material Interface documentation).
Setting Name |
Value (Example) |
Description |

CS_RCVPRN |
LOGSPO0250 |

FIX_PROG |
Y |
Y: Some fields in some segments are filled automatically (the program code is fix), example: E1MARAM.MATNR is filled with the material number ‘N’: You must use fix values or CIP function for every mapped field If this interface setting is not found in A7011, the interface will work like ‘Y’ (the old way with the fix programming). This setting is not used in the REQ interface. |
FTP_CMD |
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ftp.exe |
FTP command (full path required) |
MATMASIDOC |

IDoc name of type MATMAS03, which shall later be used by the SAP interface; by this it is possible to use IDocs which are entered new or modified by customer |
MAXIDENT |
100 |
Maximum number of transferred idents per file |
MAXREQS |
10 |
Maximum number of transferred reqs per file |
MAXWAIT |
60 |
Max. time of response (sec) |
PRE_MATNR |
0 |
Left-justified padding of the material number with given filler-characters. (here "0"); if this interface setting won’t be set, the material number will be transferred to SAP as it is saved in M_IDENT_INTERFACES. This interface setting is not necessary for the function of the interface. |
PREQCRIDOC |
PREQCR01 |
Defines the name of the PREQCR IDOC that is used from the Smart Materials SAP requisition interface. In the normal case, the delivered IDOC PREQCR01 must be entered here. But if one customer wants to use an own customized PREQCR01, he has to specify this here (needed for REQ) |
SAP_ART_NR |
M_PCK_SAP_CUSTOM.BUILD_SAP_ART_NR |
Name of a CIP function, which will be used to generate the SAP material number if it doesn’t exist; the given CIP function will be delivered per default; It returns the ident code as SAP material number |
TAGTEXTFUN |
M_pck_sap_custom. GET_TAG_TEXT |
Defines a CIP function, which builds the purchasing text especially for tagged items in Smart Materials that are not transferred as material to SAP, but should nevertheless be purchased in SAP. The function M_pck_sap_custom. GET_TAG_TEXT will be delivered by Intergraph as an example (needed for REQ). |
TRACING |
1 |
The values 1 and 2 are valid. If the interface setting variable won’t be saved to an SAP interface, an IDoc trace log won’t be written; with value 2 you will get a more detailed log-file than with value 1. Furthermore, a RFC trace file and OCX.log file will be written, if this interface setting is set to 1 or 2. |
TYP_OR_EXT |
‘TYP’ or ‘EXT’ |
Use interface settings for CLFMASIDOC, MATMASIDOC, PREQCRIDOC as IDoc type or as IDoc extension (see below) |
USE_ECLASS |
‘Y’ or ‘N’ |
For working with Material Classes (CLFMAS IDOC): especially for customized SAP Systems that are working with ECLASS specification. The feature name specified on SAP 10.04 will be changed internally into the Material Class concatenated with the feature_name defined on SAP 10.04. This new (internal) feature will be transferred to SAP. (Detailed information in "Definition of SAP Material Classes " chapter) |
