It allows users to define which fields of the material master data can be updated and which fields are not allowed to be changed. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The OMX9 transaction code allows users to define a material update structure that can be used to control the updating of material master data in the SAP system. This structure defines which fields of the material master data can be updated and which fields are not allowed to be changed. The material update structure also defines which fields are mandatory and which fields are optional when updating the material master data.

  2. Enter a name for the material update structure in the “Structure Name” field.

  Other Recommendations: 
  It is recommended that users test out their newly created material update structure before using it in production environments, as any errors or mistakes made in defining it could lead to incorrect updates being made to material master data in SAP. Additionally, users should ensure that they have sufficient authorization before attempting to create or modify a material update structure, as this could lead to security issues if done incorrectly.
