Creating Personal Lists in SAP

							                           Creating Personal Lists in SAP
Many fields in SAP have picklists indicated with the    button. Some of these picklists can be very lengthy. To
streamline these picklists, a “personal list” for those fields with lengthy picklists can be created. This quick
reference card (QRC) walks you through the steps to create a personal list using the “Material” field on the Create
Requisition (ME51N) screen as an example. The same steps can be performed, though, on any field within SAP
that has a picklist.


Step 1: Type ME51N in the                                    Command Field. The Create Purchase Requisition
        screen appears.

         NOTE: You do not have to create a requisition to create a Personal List.

Step 2: Single click on the Material field (highlighted below).




Step 3: Click on the    (drop-down) button and the box below will appear.




Step 4: To see all of the Material Master Records, click on the “No restriction” check box shown above.

       NOTE: To search for a particular Material Master Record, enter the keyword you are searching for in the
       “Material description” field and place an asterisk (*) before and after the keyword which will display all
       Material Master Records that contain the keyword (example: *Copier*).

Step 5: Click on the      button.

Step 6: A listing of the Material Master records will be displayed as shown below.




Step 7: Scroll down the list to the Material Master Record you wish to add to your Personal List.

Step 8: Single click anywhere on the item and a blue box will appear as shown above on item “1780 Long
        Sleeve…”.

Step 9: Click on    button to add to Personal List.


Step 10: Once an item has been added to a Personal List a new button,       , is shown. Click on the
         button, highlighted below, to display your Personal List of Material Master Records.

Step 11: Your Personal Value List, will be displayed.




Step 12: Double-click to add the Material Master to the requisition.



   NOTES:

   •   The next time you return to the Material field your Personal List will be displayed. To return to the
       entire Material Master Record list click on           button.


   •   To add other items to your personal list click on the              button and repeat steps 7 through 11.


   •   Personal list may be created for any field that has a pick list in SAP. Just look for the                  button to
       add an additional item to your list.
