Help on EHS data selection for labeling scenario (without GLM)

Hi EHS expert,

After implement DGM, I am starting to investigate the way we could print label (stock label & customer label) with EHS data.

Let’s says that I have 1 material code which could be delivered anywhere on the globe.

We have implemented the “GHS” globally, with the regional implementation (GHS_CLP for Europe, GHS_US for US, GHS_ASIA for Asia Pacific, etc.).  It’s included symbols, signal words, hazard phrases, precaution phrases, etc.

Hard point 1: EHS storing information

If I use the SAP std classification & characteristic, I would have to separate each GHS implementation into 1 VA/Class such as:

GHS implementation (EMEA) // VA/class = SAP_EHS_1023_094

GHS implementation (NA) // VA/class = SAP_EHS_1023_095

GHS implementation (PA) // VA/class = SAP_EHS_1023_096

Or … would not be easier to maintain into 1 ZEHS VA/Class and … segregate the implementation with different usage such as?

REGION/GHS_CLP,

REGION/GHS_US,

REGION/GHS_ASIA …

I am confused ...

Hard point 2: print EHS data

The printing logic for label is to print the correct information for the ship-to country. I tried to read the EHS notes/help  portal, but I did get the point on how SAP can select the appropriate VA/characteristic under a certain validy area … from the country (ship-to).

As I understand on the EHS GLM documentation it's seem to be a manual process ...

Ex: if ship-to party = US, then relevant GHS_US data would have to printed.

Also, depending on point 1) I am confused …

I planned to NOT use GLM with WWI … and try to select and export these data on a standard spool output. (We use a external label/barcode solution.)

Do I have the normal EHS approach?

Does the bapi BAPI_BUS1077_GETDETAIL is the best way to select & extract the characteristic data? (seems difficult to use with a validy area condition)

Appreciate any help, suggestion and comment!

Thanks.
