Order type and Item category group
Can anyone tell me which is the relation between order type and Item category group from material master ??
In fact the problem is that I have created a material and when I want to create new sales order it gives me this errror:
"No item category available (Table T184 ZORDER ZITGR)"
Is there a tranzaction where I can assign Item category group ZITGR to sale order type ZORDER or something like that??
What should i do?
Hi Dan,
Goto T-Code VOV4 and maintain the table
Sales Doc type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher level Item Category = Item Category
TA + NORM + Nil + Nil = TAN
If you have Customized your own Document Type and Item Category Group and Item Category then give your
Sales Doc type (ZORDER)+ Item Category Group (ZITGR)+ Usage + Higher level Item Category = Item Category (ZTAN)

Disable the Item Availability Button based on Order type and Item category
Hi ,
My requirement is to disable the Item availability check button in VA01 based on the Order Type & Item category. Is there any user Exits/ Badi / FM available for this.
Thanks in advance.
Srinivas.Hi,
Although it is an old post I need to answer for people who search an answer to the same type of question. To hide a field
you can use transaction variant 'tcode:SHD0'. But it is not based on Order type and Item category. May be you can use
USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION form in user-exit MV45AFZZ. You can loop at screen and set screen-active = 0 in fields
where you want them to be inactive. -

Link material type and item category.
Hi,
Can you brief me on how following setting in SPRO works?
Plant maintenance - Maintenance and service processing - Maintenance and service order - General data - Define default values for componenet item category
When i checked, this setting is to link item category with the material type and item category is defined based on the material type and maintenance plant. But what is the relation in term of the order type i.e. whenever i create any order with a specifica order type, the default item category should get reflected on the componenets tab of the order?
Is it possible?
Can you guide me how to do this setting.
ThansksHi,

Maintenance and Service Orders
Functions and Settings for Order Types

Reqirement type and item category
dear friends,
can u please tell me the link between requirement type and item category?
i want to use the special stock for the delivery and as well as purchase requirement in case stock is not there...
i m getting the right combination.
plzz help....Hi Deepak,
This is strategy for Determining the Requirements Type
. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.
. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements.

Difference between Material type and Item category
What is the difference between Material type and Item category?
We can differentiate different kind of materails according to material type then why do we have Item category which is also more or less on the same lines.
Both can be considered as a terminology in SAP to group similar kind of materials.
Please let me know the exact difference between the two?Dear Christino
We can list out so many differences.
When you create a material master record, the material type you choose determines:
- Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a configurable material or process material
- Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
- The number range from which the material number is taken
- Which screens appear and in what sequence
- Which departmental data you may enter
- What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or procured externally, or both
Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management requirement; that is:
- Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record
- Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in financial accounting
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the warehouse depend on the material type.
-Most importantly, Users can be authorized to create materials of specific material types but not based on item category
- Item category will define whether the material should be valuated for stock or it should be considered as non-stock
- Pricing is carried out based on Item Category and not based on Material type

Document type and item category
Hi All,
I have created two document types in MM for creating Purchasing Requisition. One for material and for service and material. But when i am selecting service and material document type, the item category at item level is automatically converted to D(Service) even though i dont select any thing(material). I have not done any settings for iterm category based on document type. Pls let me know why i am facing this problem.
Thanks,
RajuHi Amit,
For both the document types (Material and service, service) the item category standard and service are assinged. I have checked in SPRO--->MM-->Purchasing->Purchase requisition-->Define document type--->Check Allowed item category assingment and Link purchase requisition document type.
Hi Raghavendra
If SAP standard service document type then we cant take material and can take service only for creating PR, but in my case i have created one document type and named it as service and for this document type i have assigned item category of service and standard. In this case it should allow me to create PR with standard item category, but its not allowing me to do so. Pls let me know how can i solve this issue.
Thanks,

Item category & item category group
Hi
What is the Function of item category and item category group?
thanx in advhi,
read this help file.
Using the item category group, you group together different material
types for item category determination from the SD view. For every
material type, you can define a default item category group which is
proposed by the SAP System when you create a material master record. For
more information on setting default values please refer to the section
"Define material type defaults.
In the sales document, the system determines the item category from the
item category group of the material and from the sales document type and
proposes this item category in the document. You assign item categories
to sales order types and item category groups elsewhere. You can find
further information on this in the section "Assign item categories".
Actions
If you define your own item category groups, the keys should start with
the letter Z, since this name convention is kept free in the standard
SAP System for this purpose.
1. Check whether you can use the item category groups in the standard
version.
2. If you want to create new item category groups, you must enter an
alphanumeric key with a maximum of 4 characters as well as a textual
description.
Item Catgeory:
In this menu option, you define item categories for sales documents. The
item categories that are contained in the standard SAP R/3 System
together with the sales document types represent the usual business
transactions.
You have the following options for defining your own item categories:
o Copy an existing item category and change it according to your
requirements.
o Create a new item category.
Recommendation
If you define your own item categories, the keys should begin with the
letter Z since SAP keeps this range free in the standard system and
protects it from being overwritten during release upgrades.
If you define your own item categories, you should copy similar item
categories that are defined by SAP and make the required changes there.
In this case, all the specifications of the existing item category are
copied - even the assignment to the sales document types. In particular,
the data for example concerning partner determination, pricing or
document flow which you do not edit on the detail screen of the item
category is also copied. Consequently, you can test the new item
category for the settings made without having to edit the other menu
options.
When copying sales document types, item categories and schedule line
categories, the SAP system automatically creates a log with the copied
data. Using the log, you can check whether all of the copied data
applies to your item category or whether you must make changes.
Note
If you create or copy a new item category that is to be used for a
delivery, you must also define a delivery item category with the same
name. The SAP system automatically transfers the item category that was
found for the sales document item into the delivery item.
Activities
If you only need to make minor changes to the existing item categories
(e.g. changed description), then you change this as appropriate. Minor
changes refer to parameters that have no controlling character.
If you need to make further changes, define a new item category by
copying a similar item category supplied in the standard system and then
change this according to your requirements. In this way, you can for
example define an item category for which a certain type of pricing is
carried out, or for which the data must not differ at header and item
level but which otherwise matches an existing item category.
If you want to create an item category, proceed as follows:
1. Enter an alphanumeric key with a maximum of four characters.
2. Maintain the respective specifications of the detail screen.
3. Also consider the additional functions on item category level and
the item-specific settings in the general sales and distribution
functions.

Material and item category relationship
For a given material, how can I get item category and higher level item category.
I know mara stores item category group and t184 stores item category group and item category
Thanks.Think you are going wrong way.
Item Category and High Level Item Category are not assigned to Material, but they are assigned to Sales Document Type and Item Category Group. As you mentioned, you can get the details from table T184.
Table T184 gives the options on how the system has to react in various scenarios.
Combination of Sales Document Type in Sales Order, Item Category Group which is from Material Master and... result in the Item Category that is populated for the Item.

Item:000001.Order type ZBBK and Item category TAN not customized for
Hello all,
I got the following error message when trying to create an order. Please suggest.
Item:000001.IP type ZBBK and Item category TAN
not customized for
Thanks,In config, you have to have assignment of the document types to the item category groups.
In SPRO you can Assign Item Category Usage for a combination of -
1] Sales Document Type
2] Item Category Group and
3] High level Item Category etc.
The path in SPRO is Sales and Dist --> Sales --> Sales Documents --> Sales Document Item --> Assign Item Categories.
Just below "Define Item Category Usage".
Hope this helps.

" Item Category Group" in the material master?
Hi,
I'm going to use inbound delivery for purchase order, so I'm going to do it as follows:
1) Create a new "item category group Y001"
2) Create a new "item category Y001 (copy from ELN then change the movement type to 101, and set it relevant to putaway)",
3) Replace the item category group in the material master with Y001
4) Determine the item category via transaction 0184 as the following ways:
"Delivery Type" EL +
"Item Category Group From Material Master" Y001 +
"Item Usage" V +
'Item Category Of The Higher-Level Item"
==> "Determine New Delivery Item Category" Y001
My question is, If I change the item category group in the material master, is there any effect to SD part?
Thanks.hi
General item category group
Materials grouping that helps the system to determine item categories during sales document processing.
*If a group is configured specific to distribution channel, it has priority if the corresponding activity is distribution channel-dependent
Item category group from material master
A grouping of materials that the system uses to determine item categories during the processing of sales documents.
the difference between the two lies in the specificity to the distribution channel

Hello All
can any one explain the functional use of Item category group maintained in CRM material master under basic data tab and also under sales and distribution tab.
what is the difference between two views and what happens if dont have value at Sales and distribution level.
Regards
PhaniHi Phani,
1. Item category Group is just a key which comes from the Product master and helps in the item category determination.
Item category group in the Material Tab, is a general Item category Group valid for all sales areas.
Whereas the one maintained in the Sales and distribution tab becomes specific to that particular sales area.
For eg: To a Product HT-1011 u have assigned two sales areas say A and B
In the Material tab, we assign item category group NORM
In the Sales and Distribution tab, for sales area A , we assign item category group ZORM.
In the item category determination the following settings are maintained:
Assumption transaction type is TA.
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group : NORM
Item category: TAN
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group : ZORM
Item category: TANN
Now in the sales order if u enter product HT-1011 and choose sales area A, TANN will get determined, if u choose B TAN will get determined.
It is not mandatory to put the item category group. It onlu helps in the item category determination.In case u have not assigned any item category group, it will look for a item category dtermination entry something like:
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group :
Item category: TAN
Wish this helps.

How to use item category group for pricing?
Hi,
how can I use the item category group to carry out pricing?
I want to determine a condition type for item category group DIEN only and no other.
Thanks for help!
FlorianHi Florian Preuss,
You should follow the next steps:
1. Check if the item category group field exist in the pricing catalog to choose it as a field in a table condition, if it doesn't exist (I don't believe that), you should contact to a technical person (ABAP) to add it to the structure KOMPAZ.
2. Create a condition table with this field (item category group) and others that you need to determine the condition.
3. Create an access sequence with this condition table.
4. Create a condition type and assign it the access sequence.
5. Add the condition to pricing procedure.
6.. Enjoy it.
Thanks in advance,

*General item Category Group* vs *Item Category Group*
Hi,
What's the difference for the General item Category Group and Item Category Group in the material master?
Thanks.Hi,
General item category grp is used in the sales processes like BOM, where we have higher item category and the default item
categories.
General item category grp would refer to the higher level item category and item category grp would refer to the default item category
General Item category Group is an extension item category group. Example: if one select item catagory group as NORM, but under item category group, NORM can further be classified as Service item, packagaing item or Normal
item using "general item category group".
Also, General item category group is maintained at client level, this field can be maintain from Basic Data View of Material Master. Thus in case item category group is missing, then general item category group is used for item category determination.
Item category group determines how a material is processed in the sales order. When processing sales and distribution
documents, the system uses the item category group to determine the item category and proposes it in the respective document. Item category group is defined in the Sales Org View 2 of Material Master Record.
Example, in the standard SAP System, the item category group NORM is defined for materials kept in stock and the group DIEN for services and non-stock material
