How To Open Block Material in SAP MM?

There are 4 possible locations for a material to be "blocked" on the material master



1. Go into transaction MM02

2. Enter in the sales org and plant into the org levels
selection box that pertain to the plant location that has inventory

3. Check Basic Data 1 view
Field: X-plant matl status
Action: remove value and remove coresponding valid from date

4. Check Sales: sales org 1 view
Field: X-distr.chain status
Action: remove value and remove coresponding valid from date
Field: DChain-spec. status
Action: remove value and remove coresponding valid from date

5. Check Purchasing or MRP view
Field: Plant-sp.matl status
Action: remove value and remove coresponding valid from date

6. Save Material



7. Go to transaction MM06
Remove deletion flags if applicable, note if they were applied only to specific plant you
will need to query by that plant to view the Deletion flag

NOTE: If you have access I would build an variant in transaction MM17 that allows for you to
see all of these fields at once so you can see everything in a summary and make then
necessary changes there
