Note A prerequisite for using this feature is activation of the following business feature: SAP Sustainability Footprint Management Integration into Core Processes PFM_PROCESSINTEGRATION For more information, see Product Footprint Management (SUS-PFM-INT).   Advanced Search Capabilities Various filter options for searching large amounts of data specifically for the required materials. With these filter options you can better investigate your active materials (that is, for which goods movements have taken place) and materials without a deletion indicator in more detail.   Note The app calculates the stock values based on the stock quantity of the selected reporting date multiplied by the current material price. This means that the app always calculates using the current material price, irrespective of the reporting date you have selected. This calculation method for the stock value is common to all Fiori apps in Inventory Management.In addition, in the Stock - Multiple Materials app, you can display the result of a calculation method based on the historical prices at the time of the related material postings.Note that these two calculation methods lead to different results. SAP recommends that you use the main calculation method based on the current material price, because this method leads to faster results and is optimized for stock analysis.In the view settings you can specify the desired field selection for each calculation method: The associated fields begin with Current value of ... and Value of ....  Note Depending on your authorization settings, the app might only display zero in all the stock value columns in the results table. This type of financial information is often only available to a specific group of users. If only zero is displayed, you can hide these irrelevant value columns in the table display or get in contact with your administrator to clarify what you are authorized to display.  In addition, the app supports the following technical features and options:  You can export the result list to a spreadsheet.   You can send a link to the material document details by e-mail.   To start a conversation and to share your comments on the selected search result, use chat in Microsoft Teams or Send Email.   This app includes SAP CoPilot. This digital assistant in the SAP S/4HANA system supports you with features like business context awareness or quick actions to manage follow-on activities directly from the app.
