Item category not defined

Hi gurus,
My client need help to ship some parts.
He creates the delivery (VL01N)
And when we enter the batch we have an error message appearing : Item category is not defiened.
I check in the sales order and everything is ok (item category ZXXX for free charge). In the maeterial master the item category group is NORM.
Do you have any suggestions of issues which can cause such an error.
Please advice
Regards

HI patrick

TO confirmation error - item category not defined

Hi experts,
We have a HU/WM setup in our warehouse. While i try to confirm the TO i am getting an error 'item category not defined'?
I am able to confirm the TO's for other orders, this is happenning for a specific group of orders which have a different item category in delivery.
Any hints when this error will appear?
Is there any config where we assign the delivery item category with the warehose or any other setting?
Thanks,
Harish

I suggest have a look at OSS note 1464539 - your settings in table T184L might be wrong.
Is it possible that the batch is determined via WM, during picking? If different batches have been determined for one item, it will cause batch split in your delivery - if settings in T184L are wrong, system cannot cope with it and may throw error message VL324.
(sorry for duplicate, I was slow a little bit and "Sap: IN" said the same in the meanwhile)

Item Category not Defined Error message when deleting a batch item in Deliv

Hi,
I am trying with a Intercompany transfer . So after creating Interco. Transfer we have followed with a delivery document.
Now,we would like to delete the delivery document. For your info. Del. doc is still open. We haven't gone for Goods issue or anything else.
So,we tried removing the batch line item in batchsplit tab of the delivery and then deleting the delivery document.
But we get the error message "Item catgeory Not defined". but we could see entries for Item category Determination with the particular Delivery typeItem Category Group from Material MasterItem Usage+Item Category.
Why does system throw "Item catgeory Not defined". when there are entries for particular determination available .
And this seems to be Syste
Thanks,
Dhilipan

Err in PO creation-Sales document item is not defined for this transaction

Dear Consultants the errror occurs when we process Individual Purchase Order scenario.
Err in PO creation-Sales document item is not defined for this transaction
Thanks&Regards,
SanthaRam

This error because the item category is not determined correctly in the sales order.
Check the item category in Sales order line item, for Individual Purchase order scenario its TAB.
If its not TAB, then check the assignement for Item category in VOV4.
This thread is more of the SD part, so also put it in SD forum for better solutions.

Error "Item is not defined as an Inventory Item" using oInventoryGenEntry

I am trying to create a Receipt from Production with this code:
                receive = (Documents)_Company.GetBusinessObject(BoObjectTypes.oInventoryGenEntry);
                receiveLine = receive.Lines;
                        receiveLine.BaseType = 202;
                        receiveLine.BaseEntry = oli.ProductionOrderNumber;
                        receiveLine.BaseLine = 0;
                        receiveLine.Quantity = oli.Quantity;
                        receiveLine.WarehouseCode = "01";
                int errorCode = receive.Add();
where the production order will contain several component items that make up a finished good. Two of the component items are Labor and Royalties and are not marked as Inventory Items.
The Add method returns this error:
"Item is not defined as an Inventory Item" and references one the non-inventory items (ie 'Labor').
I can received the same Production Order through SBO without an error.
Suggestions?
Thanks

Because I am concerned about eliminating Labor from the Bill Of Material and its effect on the 'Acutal Product Cost' when I create a Production Order I set up a test.
I created two Finished Goods Inventory Items with similar Bills of Material. Both included a Labor component (non-inventory item). The difference though, is one Labor component has an Item Type of Labor and the other Labor component has an Item Type of 'Items'
Next, I create a Work order for each of the finished items. Then I did a receipt from Production and closed the Work Orders.
Looking at the Production Order summary, the Finished Good had an 'Actual Additional Cost' that was non-zero for the Finished Good that had a Labor component of the 'Items'; the other Finshed Good had a zero 'Actual Additional Cost'. These seems in conflict with the eLearning segment on Production.
At this point is this a different Forum?

Item category not available in the table T184

Hi Gurus,
When the PP consultant is trying to Create Individual Items using MD81, it is giving the error " Item category not available in the table T184" But from the SD side, I have assigned the item category to the sales document type. also the field for item category ( PSTYV ) is present in the table T184. What can be the problem? is this any issue related to SD?
Thanks & Regards
Kaushik Ghosh

Check the material master for the material for which you are trying to create the Independent Requirements. The Item Category group mentioned should be be wrong there, as by message i am understanding that system is not able to determine the Item Category for your concerned material.
Item category determination is done in T184 table with the combination Sales Document Type/Item Category group/Item Usage/Item Category of Higher level item/ Default Item Category.
Hope this helps.

Vivek Sahni

Right item category not getting copied while copying sales order

Hi,
We have a scenario where we are coping an existing order document and maintaining a new order document.
The problem is that when we are copying the existing order, we ll not get the same item categories in the copied order as available in the original order.
The Free of Cost item categories of the materials got changed to the normal item categories, which should not happen.
Let me know if any configuration changes made in system can fix this issue.
Cheers!!!
Ajay

Hi,
This may be due to copycontrol between these two sales order. In copy controls, you are retriggering the item category determination.
When you define the copy control from SO to SO, select the item category and keep the source and target item category as same. (Same for schedule line category also). Once this is done, your problem will be solved.

Err in PO creation-Sales document item is not defined for the transaction

Hi,
I am getting the following error while creating PO
"Sales document item 30000183 000100 is not defined for the transaction
Message no. V1 198
Diagnosis
You have tried to carry out a business transaction for this sales and distribution document item which, for this item, is not allowed.
This may be due to the fact that this item is not part of a make-to-order production with cost management in the sales order."
I have used an item category which is copy of TAB and the sales order line item is attached to WBS element.
can any one guide me what needs to be done.
thanks

If you want the sales order creation to initiate a PO creation automatically, check if the "Create PO Automatically" button is ticked on for the item category in Transaction flow tab in tcode VOV7
This will solve your problem, provided your configuration for PO on the MM side is fine.
Reward if this helps.

Opportunity creation: product item category not permitted

Hi SAP Gurus,
After some difficulties, we succeeded in transfering products from R/3 to CRM.
Now we would like to create an opportunity, associated with a customer and a product (in fact consultant services).
In the 'Products' tab of the opportunity creation, we have to fill the field 'item category'. Whatever we type in it, we have always the same error 'The item category XXXX is not permitted for product YYYY'.
Do we have any configuration to do or to import from R/3, concerning item category? How could we bypass this error?
Thanks for your help
Anne

First check which item category group your products use. then:
SPRO->CRM->transactions->basic settings
Define Item Categories, refered to an opportunity item.
Then Define Item Category Determination. Add a line with transaction type OPPT and your item category group.

Item category not changeable in sales order

Hi
I have a material where the item category is not changeable in the sales order after you have pressed 'enter' after the material number. It is a bundle material number, with a BOM (structure scope 'A') - does this mean that the item category is greyed out for change?
It is causing a problem because to select the manual item category in item category assignment, you have to change it before you press enter (and when you do that it only gives you a full list of item categories rather than the ones you can select for the assignment table).
Jon

this is standard sap !
the reason is that if you change something that has relations with other object then problems can raise.
You cannot do anything for this but you can make a user exit at your own risk that 'opens' up the field:
the exit looks like this:
MV45AFZZ
FORM userexit_field_modification.
CASE screen-group2.
    WHEN 'LOO'.
      IF screen-name = YourItemCategory AND xvbup-gbsta = ' '.
        screen-input = 1.
        MODIFY SCREEN.
      ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
ENDFORM.                    "USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION
