Symptom
- Planning to implement the manufacturer part number (MPN) process to manage multiple manufacturer part numbers and vendors for a single material.
- Traditional transactions MP01 and MP02 for maintaining the approved manufacturer parts list (AMPL) are not available in the public cloud environment.
- Request for the recommended standard approach, including configuration, execution, relevant fiori apps, and end-to-end process details.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Attempt to use transactions MP01 or MP02 to maintain the approved manufacturer parts list (AMPL) in the public cloud.
- Observe that these transactions/apps are not available in the fiori launchpad.
Cause
The maintenance of manufacturer parts is not activated in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition; therefore, the app corresponding to MP01 (and MP02) is currently not available in fiori.
Resolution
To provide alternative options, refer to SAP Community that offers workarounds for certain MPN use cases here: Manufacturers part number on product
Additionally, a feature request for this app that was previously submitted by another customer: Manufacturer part functionality - Access to MPN Profile and AMPL for Public Cloud.
Vote for this proposal to express the need for the same feature.
