Delete Materials Permanently from Material Master

Updated Jul 11, 2018

Steps to delete materials permanently from Material master

Use transaction MM70 - Material Master->Other->Reorganization->Material->Choose.

Build variant with selection range of material master records to be selected for deletion and maintain run parameters. Execute.

Use transaction MM71 - Material Master-> other-> Reorganization->Material->Reorganization 

Build a second variant

Maintain run parameters and execute.

It is also important to remove the records manually from info record, POs, PRs, reservation etc for successful deletion of the material.

    can a valuation type also be permanently deleted from material master (like if it had never been created)?

    i know it can be flagged for deletion, but it still shows it in mm03 and i believe it only shows a warning when used, not preventing being processed.

    The use of transaction MM70 & MM71; does this permanently remove the items or just mark them for deletion? Someone told me that I still have to implement archeiving after all. is this true?

    WILL MM70 & MM71 PERMANENTLY REMOVE THE ITEMS OR WILL THEY BE SEEN AFTERWARDS ? AND DELETION WILL BE DONE INSTANTLY ? OR WILL IT TAKE SOME TIME ?
