Hi BK,
Let's verify your IM generation and activation steps before looking for Notes.
1. You created an Initial model with 10 materials (for example) in CFM1. (And Plant box checked)
2. Save the IM and give it a variant name (so that you can find it later).
3. Generate the IM.
3. Activate the IM with CFM2 (or CFM3).
4. Materials transferred - OK.
5. Intention - add 4 new materials to material IM.
6. In CFM1, load the original variant and add the specific materials, save the variant and generate.
Or if you are using the filter criteria, just generate the IM again in CFM1.
7. Activate the IM in CFM2 by selecting the new version of the IM and executing.
8. You will end up with one IM activated for materials. All materials are included in the new IM.
9. Check the details to the right of the activated, new version of the IM and you should see all desired materials included (including the originals).
These are the manual steps. If you have set up a batch job stream, check the jobs. There should be no instance of using RCIFMDTE.
If you are using filter criteria to pickup the new materials, then programs RIMODGEN and RIMODAC2 are run to give you the same
results. Make sure there is only 1 active material IM when you have finished your batch run and check the details in CFM2.
There should be no deletion steps in your job stream until you desire to delete the old, inactive models (important practice) with RIMODDEL.
Otherwise check for user exits and customer code.
Some of steps may not be exact due to failing long term memory but you get the idea.
If you've checked all these basic steps, come back with another question.
Regards,
Mike
