Adding Category/Category Group to a Keyfigure

Hi,
I am trying to map a keyfigure to a Category/Category Group. However when I am in the change mode in the Planning area, both Category/Category Group columns are displayed as read only. I had even tried by removing te Time Series objects. even then these columns are non readable.
How do i make these columns readable ? any ideas / thoughts?
TIA

Please explain your issue in more detail. Will try and help.
Linking a KeyFigure in Planning area to a Category Group should not have the effect you are talking about. Please check if you did something wrong. Refer to the Setup of 9ASNP02 Planning area on how KFs and Category Groups are linked and then also see the same KF appearing in 9ASNP94 Planning Book in SNP Interactive Planning.
If this is helpfull Please_award_points.

SSRS Chart group dataset by Year (series groups)/Month (category groups) force intervals to start at JAN?

Hi all,
trying to figure this out in REPORT BUILDER, but I guess I can go to VS if needed...
I've got a data set that says "sales" and its basically order summarycontaining:
id, dateplaced, and other stuff...
I want to use this dataset to show trendline for annual qty of orders
created line chart with "countDistinct(id)" as the series for X
category groups = groupby "=Month(dateplaced)" and label "=MonthName(Month(dateplaced)"
series groups = group by "=Year(dateplaced)" and label the same.
I think this is working as intended, please correct if not.
The PROBLEM I'm seeing is that since my dataset returns data starting around september so my "axis" starts in september... I really would prefer it starts at Jan and ends in December... I can't see any way to do this...
The only things I could think of are;
put fake data in dataset that returns "empty" values for jan in the first year of data...
change the query completely to make sure tehre are "year" "month" groupings... somehow...
but both of these approaches seem to be "hacky" and not very maintainable or clear...
Help!

Hi noJedi,
According to your description, you want to you have the category group in your chart always start from January. Right?
In Reporting Services, when we set category group, the records will sort by the sequence of data in database by default. However, we can apply expression in
Sorting so that those records can sort by the month. We have tested your scenario in our local environment, here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create a chart and put the corresponding expression into category and series group.
2. Right click on category group. Go to Sorting tab. Put the expression below into sorting expression.
3. Save and preview. The result looks like below:

Sort Data in a Data Region (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Page break for a category group of a chart - SSRS 2008 R2

Hi,
I need to add a page break for one of two category groups of a my chart. Is it possible, please?
I need to create a chart for this category group to mantain readable the report.
Thanks

Hi There
You can create two graphs and put them inside two separate rectangles and add page break
after first rectangle and add a filter to your chart for first category group for first chart and second category group for second chart.
This is best you can do
If you have any question please let me know.
Many Thanks

Free Goods : Category/Group wise

Hello Experts,
Greetings.
I have a sincario where by we give the freegoods on category basis.for ex.combination of (5-6) material codes will make one category/group.Our condition is that if customer pickes 25 cartons of that particular category,he is entitled to get 1 free carton as a free goods.
As per the sap standards,it works 1:1 ration only.
Is their any other way whereby we can give free goods based on category/group basis?
Help would be highly appriciated.
Best Rgds
Nitin

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for the response. What's being used as amount in my free goods condition type is not the selling price but the total discount. Please see example below.
ZR02     Price-Regular     777.50
     Price                 777.50
     Total Parity                 0.00
     Net of Parity                 777.50
Z006     ML Disc 1                 5.000-%
     Value 1                 738.63
Z007     ML Disc 2                 1.000-%
     Value 2                 731.24
     Value 3                 731.24
     Value 4                 731.24
     Value 5                 731.24
     Value 6                 731.24
     Discount 1                 38.88-
     Discount 2                 0.00
     Discount 3                 7.39-
     Net Value for Item     46.26-
NRAB     Free goods                          46.26
Instead of having an amount for free goods equal to -777.50 what's being used as amount is 46.26 (positive)

Item category group

Hi gurus,
Can anyone pls. help me identify the appropriate item category group for the free goods in CRM only (i.e. no R/3 integ)? The current item category group of these products is set at NORM but we may need to change it to TANN because of an ABAP runtime error. I just don't know how to include it (TANN) in the list of values in the Item Cat. Group field in COMMPR01. Hope you can help me.
Thanks,
Theresa

Hi Theresa,
In item category determination u will have two entries:
Transaction Typ : ZDBT
Item Cat. Group : NORM
Item Cat. Usage :
Main item cat. :
Item Category   : ZDB
Transaction Typ : ZDBT
Item Cat. Group : NORM
Item Cat. Usage : FREE
Main item cat. : ZDB
Item Category   : TANN
What I understand is that you wish to do free goods determination.I.e. For 1 Case = 1 Free item
For that we have other pre-requisites like:
Free good determination settings:
1. SPRO->Customer Relationship Management->Basic Functions->Set Up Free Goods->Assign Procedure
2. SAP menu->Master DataPrices and Conditions->/SAPCND/GCM - Maintain Conditions
Condition type: 0NA0
Procedure: 0NA001

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)
Reward if helpful

Missing Item Category Group data in Material SD data in CRM

Hi crm experts,
Please help us. We are trying to identify what's the rootcause of the problem we experienced in CRM regarding the Item category group. We are maintaining material master in ECC and it will be replicated in CRM via middleware. The data item category group is properly maintained in ECC but when we checked in CRM, only 3 of the sales areas have it.
Sales Area 1 - YES
Sales Area 2 - NO
Sales Area 3 - YES
Sales Area 4 - YES
So we will do a request load for the data to show also on Sales Area 2.
Item category group were maintained in the ff tables:
ECC table TPTM
CRM table CRMV_ITEM_CAT_GR
Can you please let us know how we can pin point this problem so that this will not happen again? We want to apply a permanent solution if there is. Hoping for your kind assistance. Thanks!
Best regards,
Mike

OrgChart 3.0 SP1 - Sub Category Groups configuration?

According to the Admin Guide the Sub Category Groups configuration in Admin Console would allow me to group similar records within the same org chart box. I assume the Sub Category Filter will define the criteria for sorting the records but there is no description / example/ guidance on what the syntax should be for this field. 2 different results I would like to achieve are:
(1) to list names of multiple incumbents for one position in a box, rather than simply showing the phrase "multiple incumbents".
(2) to hide the whole group of multiple incumbents for a position, based on the Employee Group.
Any assistance appreciated.
Thanks,
Clementine

Hi Clementine,
I would suggest that you apply a filter to the data element. You can do this in the AdminConsole via OrgChart > Positions > Data Connection (that is "Positions" directly under "Organization Structure"). Add a filter, such as:
where EmpGrp != '9'
You can also do this for the Employees hierarchy too ( OrgChart > Employees > Data Connection ).
Please note that the field for exclusion must be a hierarchy field, i.e. it must exst in the list of Fields under OrgChart > Positions > Fields. You may have to change the data element configuration file in order to achieve this.
Best regards,
Luke

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!
Florian

Hi 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,
Mariano.

" 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.

Category Group (Objective Settings and Appraisals)

Hi
How can I create a new category group in the activity "Edit Templates" from the objective settings and appraisals?, The system automatically generates one category group Personnel Appraisals, so we need to create a new one?
This new category group is neccesary for the events appraisals (PE), and the category group that we had in the system is for personnel apraisals.
Somebody can help me to response this question??
Thaks,

Hi Carlos
Try to access transaction code PHAP_CATALOG.
Through this transaction code, you will see all the categories of appraisal templates for personnel appraisals, SAP Learning Solution, recruitment, etc.
Thanks,

ITEM CATEGORY GROUP VS GENERAL ITEM CATEGORY GROUP

Hi Gurus,
In material master,there are two fields, General Item categary group and Item categary group,
what is the significant usage of these two fields,
In F1 I'm getting same description,
With Regards,
J.SRUTHI

Hi,
Item Category Group is one of the component which along with the Sales Doc Type, The Item Usage and Higher Level Item Category decide about the Item Category in a sales doc.
As per definition General Item Category Group & Item Category Group both are to detrmine Item Category in Sales Document.
the Item Category Group is used to determine Item Category.
General item category is a broader term and used other than SD processes

Item category group for Raw Materials

Hello Gurus,
Goodmorning,
I have a client requirement,
Here my client is selling the Raw materials , i have some confusion in taking the category group , what is the item category group we have to use for determing for the sales categories ? I don't find any special item category group for raw material . in material master as well as in item category determination in in sales document types too .
looking for your inputs in this regard.
Thanks &Regards
Ravi.M

Hello Ravi,
Sales of Raw material already being discussed some times back.
As I know, as per Central Excise law, you are not suppose to sell the raw material from a manufacturing unit.
Hence, you rename the ROH material code with suffix A. In tcode OSM2, activate sales view tab.
Apart from this, you need to maintain the renamed code in tcode J1ID with numeric value 1 under the tab Declared.
But, normal OR-LF-F2 process.
FYI - Choose of Material tyoe will be important than choose of general item category group. As I Cat 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. In the standard system, there are normal items, items that signify services (and therefore need no delivery processing) and items that signify packing material, for example.
Thanks & Regards
