Extension of SAP IDoc MATMAS
In this part, we will cover how to extend MATMAS IDoc including extending SAP Material Master Structure and User-exits.
First, you will find a step-by-step guide on how to extend MATMAS IDoc Structure in order to add new structures to the existing segments.
Then comes the most important SAP MATMAS User-exit to modify the standard processing of the material IDoc for both input and output.

Extend SAP MATMAS04/05 IDocs Structure
In order to extend the structure of MATMAS05/04 IDoc, follow these steps:
- Create a Segment (WE31)
- Create IDoc Type (WE30)
- Add a new Message Type (WE81)
- Attach Message Type to the IDoc Type (WE82)
- Create a Function Module (SE37)
- Mention the IDoc Type, i.e, 0/1/2 (BD51)
- Assign the Message Type, IDoc Type & Function Module (WE57)
- Create a Custom Process Code (WE42)
- Attach the Function Module to the Process Code (BD67)
- Execute Inbound MATMAS IDoc (WE19)
