Sales order item category per sales organization

Hi
Sorry for the question, I am FI/CO expert, and since our SD expert left us, I am also the SD expert now.
Can I define different item categories for the same sales order type for different sales orgs?
VOV4 (IMG-sales and distrebution-sales-sales documents-sales document item-assign item categories) has no sales organization parameter.
Thanks

Yes, you can define different item categories (in t.code VOV7) and assign to same sales order types. The item category is determined by based on Sales document type + Item category group (from material master) + Item category usage + High level item category (check t.code VOV4).
The item categories are not assigned to sales organization, but the sales document types are assigned to sales area. Check t.code VOV8, where the sales documents are defined and in t.code OVAZ, the sales documents are assigned to sales area (sales area = sales org + distribution channel + division).
YOu can see the steps of configuration at SPRO -> Sales and distribtution ->Sales document header (related to sales document type) and then at -> Sales document item.

    Transfer of requirements
    Providing further deatils ;--
    01. How item category is determined :--
    Depending on the item category group that you apply & the sales doc type you are processing the system automatically proposes an item category in the document.
    1.sales document type (source: order type)
    2.item category group (source: material master)
    3.item category of the higher-level item (source: user defined)
    4.item category usage (The usage is defined by SAP and is hard coded in the programs)

  • Change Sales Order Item Category for a configurable material with config

    Hi
    My problem is related to Variant configuration. We have a requirement that depending on the ordered quantity and required replenishment lead time the business scenario for a configurable will get changed. that means some characteristics value selection will trigger the business scenario to be followed, whether it will be Make to Order, Buy to Order or 3rd Party drop-ship order. and the business process to be followed will be triggerd by the Item category to be selected in the sales order line item.
    so , the requirement is to change the item category of the sales order line item with the carecteristiocs value selection in the  variant configuration screen. As we know, when ever the material is getting entered in to the sales order line item, depending on the Item category group in the material master data the item category in the sales order line item used to get determined. after that when we are selecting the characteristics value set in the variant configurator, systen shoud chage the already determined item category of the sales order.
    Hope I have clearly furnished my problem and requirement. Can anyone show me the way to fulfil my requirement. Any further clarification requirement to understand and resolve the issue is cordialy appriciable.
    Regards'
    Som

    Thanks Krishna
    But as u mentioned the way to make the non editable field into editable one. But that will applicable in case of manual chage. But can it be applicable for changing the Item category by using Object dependency??
    Actually in our scenario, for some of the item category that field in the sales order line item remains editable. we have tested with that also. Once the item category is getting determined, object dependenct is not able to modify the item category in the sales order line item.
    I have explores something, if I include PSTYV field in VCSD_UPDATE, will it work? VCSD_UPDATE is the table that contains field of sales order can be modified with the usage of object dependency.
    Please let me know ASAP.

  • Sale order item category

    Dear all,
    We create Bom for production.For sale order creation,in  item category whether use TAC or TAN.What sholu be the right one.what is the difference between them.we create finished material is configurable or finished product.
    Regards,

    Hi Guna
    Item category depends on the Material type. It is a default material master screen group data. Generally it is defined in Sales view screen group data in material master.
    This item category refelcts the sales document type and pricing procedure etc.,
    For FERT the item category NORM. For Configurable material it is TAC

  • Transaction to maintina Billing Plan for Sales order item

    Hi All,
    Is there any transaction other than VA01/VA02 to maintian Billing plan for Sales order item.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rajanidhi Rajasekeran.

    It is possible to maintain Billing Plan in Sales Document Type (VOV8), as well as Item Category level (VOV7). As you want it at Item level, maintain the same in Item Category Configuration at Item level & it will by default be captured in Sales Order at Item level.
    Step 1: Sales Document Type
    IMG > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Sales Documents >
    Sales Document Header:
    1. Sales Document Type:The sales document types represent the different business transactions, such as Inquiry, Quotation, Sales Order, etc. To create new sales order type, always copy as with reference to similar sales order. If possible use standard sales order.
    2. Define Number Ranges For Sales Documents: Maintain number range with discussion with core team.
    3. Assign Sales Area To Sales Document Types:
    A. Combine sales organizations / Combine distribution channels / Combine divisions: Ensure to maintain these, else Sales Order creation will give error.
    B. Assign sales order types permitted for sales areas: Assign only required Sales Order Types to required Sales Area. This will minimize selection of Sales Order Type as per sales area.
    Sales Document Item:
    1. Define Item Categories: If possible use Standard Item Category. Incase if required to create new, copy as from standard & maintain New.
    2. Assign Item Categories: If possible, use standard. Formula for deriving item category: Sales Document Type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher Level Item Category = Item Category

    If you want the billing doc to post in the sales order as cost object, then your GL has to be cost element and the account assignment category in Sales order must be E
    Check the Requiremebt Type in the Procurement tab of sales order.

  • Sales & Delivery item category

    Hi Experts,
    Sales item category and Delivery item category have same names. My question is whether the delivery item category is the same as sales order item category.
    Thank you

    Hi Duncan,
    There is difference between sales order itemcategory and delivery itemcategory.
    For example if you take TAN itemctegory in both areas(Sales document and delivery) we can identify different control in each place.
    In Sales order TAN these are controls
    Transaction VOV7
    Bussiness data
    General control
    Transaction floe
    Bill of material/Configuration
    Value contract
    Service management
    Control of resource-related billing and Creation of Quotation
    In Delivery TAN these are the controls
    Transaction OVLP
    Document category--J-delivery
    Material/Statistics
    Quantity
    Wear house control and packing
    Transaction flow.
    I hope it will help you,

    Goto VOTXN transaction and select item text for sales document and then see item categeory is assigned to text procedure.
    Make sure right text procedure should be assigned to item categeory(for ex: sales order item text procedure to be assogned to sales order item category) ,also check access sequence for text.

  • How to copy sales order item text in to purchase requisition

    Hi Experts,
    We enter text for the sales order items in the sales order item details.
    we have done settings for the purchase requision to copy text from sales order into purchase requisition and this works for purchase requisitions automatically created from sales order.
    we need to get text from sales order to be copied in purchase requisitions which are created by converting the planned order.
    we have tried SPRO settings SPRO->Materials Management>purchasing--->text for purchase requisition.
    but this settings does not works for Pur Req. created by converting the planned order.
    is this because planned order does not have segment for text like sales order and purchase requisition?
    Please let me know if it is possible through standard SAP or with the lease development, any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Anand

    Hi Rajesha,
    Thanks for your reply, some of the items in sales order are procured externally by us and our customer maintains text related to price and specification in the item details of the sales order, MRP creates planned order for these materials and these planned orders are always converted in pur requisition, we want that text from the sales order item details should be copied in to the purchase requisitions converted from planned orders.
    is there any user exit which can be called at the time of saving a purchase req or user exit for converting planned order in to pur req.?
    if there is any such exit available, then I think I can read the pegged requirement of the planned order where sales order item will be found then read the text in the item then copy this text in pur req then save pur req may work.
    but this will be a bulky development, please let me know if we can shorten the development.
    Thanks again

  • Link between Delivery Header & Sales Order Item for extraction to 2nd level

    Hi Guys ,
    I am having a requirement that need to pull the following data to 2nd level DSO
    1.  Delivery Header Data
    2. Sales Order Item data. ( Sales Document, Item, Item RDD, Material)
    So I am planning create a 2nd level DSO on top of Delivery header and need to pull the sales order ITEM level data ( Sales document , Order ITEM, ITEM RDD date , Material)  through start routine u2026
    How can I pull the Sales Order Item data through start routine?  i.e I need the link between Delivery Header & Sales Order Item Data .
    or I need the link between LIKP ( Delivery Header) Vs VBAP ( Sales Document Item).
    Thanks

    or I need the link between LIKP ( Delivery Header) Vs VBAP ( Sales Document Item).

    Hi Krish,
    You can use VBLEN (Sales Document) to link Delivery header DS (2LIS_12_VCHDR) and Delivery item DS (2LIS_12_VCITM). Now In delivery item DS (2LIS_12_VCITM) you have VGBEL (Reference doc.) and VGPOS (Reference item) which is nothing but sales order document number and sales item in Order item DS (2LIS_11_VAITM) .
    So you need to link in above way to get other values in your DSO.
    It is proven method.
    Thanks,
    Uday Shankar.

  • Display item configuration of a sales order item from a program

    hello experts,
    I have a scenario in which I need to use a call transaction from my report program to sales order item configuration, is there a way to achieve this??
    Thanks for your help.
    Selvam A

    Hello Selvam,
    This should be similar to any other call transaction.
    When the user clicks on the sales order item, call the sales order item configuration transaction and skip initial screen.
    If you are doing this in the report output, add the code in 'at line selection' and by using get cursor.

  • How to control Changing of item category in sales order Manually

    looking for your inputs
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Venkat

    Hello,
    There are two possible ways:
    1. In Item Caterogy Determination remove the Manual Item Categories so that system will determine the Item Category only from defined options.
    2. Use T-SHDO - create Screen Variant & make the item Category Feild as Display only.
    Hope this helps..

  • Issue while changing Item Category during Sales Order Creation

    Hi,
    Requirement:
    Requirement is to change the item category of Sales Order item while creating the sales order.
    Rule is: If item category is IRAT then it should be changed to IRLN.
    For this, I am using the user exit "USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE" available in the include MV45AFZZ.
    Issue:
    Using the above mentioned exit, Item category is getting changed to the desired value in the created sales order BUT value of Billing Status (VBUP-FKSAA) which is supposed to get changed is blank.
    For example, Sales order is created from VA01 and item category is changed manually to the value mentioned above, then for the sales order created we have VBUP-FKSAA = 'A'. But when value of Item category is not changed manually and it is changed from the exit, then value of VBUP-FKSAA is blank.
    I have to find a solution which would change the value of Billing Status according to the change in the value of Item Category.
    Please suggest a relevant solution.
    Thanks a lot for responding.
    Abhinav.

  • Function module of querying item category in sales order generating

    Hi everyone,
    would you please help to tell me which function module can fetch the item category in sales order generation?
    any help will be appreciate.
    Thanks.
    Eric

    Hi Eric,
    When we create a sales order with VA01 and enter in a material the system gets the item category from the following function module:
    Main Program     SAPFV45P
    Source code of   FV45PF0V_VBAP-PSTYV_PRUEFEN
      CALL FUNCTION 'RV_VBAP_PSTYV_DETERMINE'
        EXPORTING
          T184_AUART   = TVAK-AUART
          T184_MTPOS   = MAAPV-MTPOS
          T184_UEPST   = HVBAP-PSTYV
          T184_VWPOS   = T184_VWPOS
          VBAP_PSTYV_I = VBAP-PSTYV
        IMPORTING
          VBAP_PSTYV   = VBAP-PSTYV.
    VBAP-PSTYV will contain your item category.
    I hope this helps.
