Loading of Commodity Codes and Import Code in SAP MM

Numbers

Use

This function copies commodity codes [Ext.] into the SAP System from external files available

from the customs authorities. It saves you the time required to manually enter these codes in the

system.

Integration

Once they have been loaded into the SAP System, the codes and their descriptions can be used

throughout the system. For example, you can match them with materials in material master

records and print them in foreign trade documents.

The system stores goods numbers and their descriptions in tables T604 and T604T (Foreign

Trade: Commodity Code / Import Code Numbers).

Prerequisites

Before the function can transfer the codes into R/3, you need to:

Make sure that the file containing the codes and their descriptions is in ASCII format

Know the structure of the file from which the system will copy the codes – which columns

the codes, the text descriptions and the units of measure (if available) occupy.

Features

You do not have to load all codes into your system. If you want, you can load only the chapters

relevant to your business.

You can overwrite all of the system’s existing codes or add only the new codes.

For example, suppose the system contains the codes 100 and 101 and the set of

codes you want to load contains codes 100, 101, and 102. You can do one of the

following:

Load only the new code, 102, and ignore codes 100 and 101

Load the new code and overwrite the existing information for codes 100 and

101

You can load commodity codes and import code numbers from the Foreign Trade

Data Service Cockpit.
