Create new batch characteristics with values checked and suggested by a function module

SAPIn this example I’ll try to show you how to create new characteristics for a material batch. This will include the following steps:

  1. Creation of a function module to check characteristics value (optional)
  2. Creation of a function module to suggest characteristics value – search help (optional)
  3. Creation of new characteristics (CT04)
  4. Creation/modification of a class (CL02)
  5. Object/Class assignment to a class (CL24N or CL20N and OMS2 if necessary)
  6. Batch modification with our new characteristics (MCS2N)
