Availability check problem - with item category(TAN and TANN)

Hi All,
We have a problem with the availability check in the standard order. Suppose if I give the item category as TAN, the availabilty check is green for that line item. If I change the item category from TAN to TANN, then the availabilty check is red.
How Item categories influence the availability check? Is availability check also depend on customer?
Thanks & Regards,
Anil.

Hi ,
please check in this path.
Customer Relationship Management>Basic Functions>Availability Check>Assign ATP Profile to Item Category
In this step you assign the ATP profile to an item category:
1. Choose the relevant item category.
2. Enter the name of the ATP profile in the ATP profile field.
If this field is empty, no availability check is carried out.
ATP profile-
1. A key that is assigned to the item category of a sales transaction item to control whether availability check takes place for this item.
2. If availability check is carried out in SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer (SAP APO), the name of the requirements profile in SAP APO is used for the ATP profile in CRM Online to carry out the following functions in SAP APO:
-ATP check
-Transfer of requirements
-Delivery scheduling
-Transportation scheduling
Hope it will useful.
thanks

Schedule lines confirmation based on item category(TAN and TANN)

Hi All,
We have a problem with the schedule line confirmation in the standard sales order. Suppose if I give the item category as TAN, the schedule lines are confirmed for that line item. If I change the item category from TAN to TANN, then there is no confirmation of the material(No confirmed schedule lines).
How Item categories influence the schedule lines? Are schedule lines also depend on customer?
Thanks & Regards,
Pranil.

Hi Pranil,
When you change Item Category then most likely in your case Schedule Line Category is also getting redetermined.
Schedule Line category is determined by the Combination of Item category and MRP Type of Material.
Hence please check your Schedule Line category after entering new Item category.
Open VOV6 and check the Schedule Line Category. In that if Item Rel for Delivery Check Box is Unchecked then it means that
your schedule line will get unconfirmed.
Do let me know if this helps.

Service PO-Item category D and A/c assignment category K

Hello all,
I am novice in service procurement. Kindly help me understand this scenario.
Client has created service PO with item category D and assignment category K.
There is no service based IV or GR based IV clicked. If i see , services tab , in item details, it is totally blank. and in PO history, i can see all IR-L documents with 940 EUR as total, while the PO is for 1000 EUR.
Limit shown in PO is 1000 EUR. Now if we go to MIRO screen, the system suggests remaining amount as 300 EUR instead of remaining 60 EUR.

Apple TV keeps telling me there is a problem with my apple ID and password when I try to connect to home sharing. I have checked and rechecked and re-entered several times with same message.

I just bought an Apple TV and am trying to set it up. I am connected to wireless, is having difficulties setting time and date. When I try to connect to iTunes and sharing. It keeps telling me that there is a problem with my apple ID and password. I have quadruple checked and re-entered and it won't recognise it. What do I do? Dan.

Sounds like it is more an issue of connecting to the internet. Not just the WiFi Some people have reported that performing a power cycle on their Internet router solved this.

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.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

Unable to save the Sample Issues Doc for item category TAN

Hi,
Created one sales doc type for Sample Issues.In this sales order when i enter the material and give customer discount 100% then value will zero.Now when i try to save this sales order then the system is showing the incompletion log and asking to maintain Net Value for the sales order.
In OVA2 Net Value is maintained for the item category TAN.So i do not want to make any changes in OVA2 as it will affect other transaction material.
If i manually changes TAN to TANN then i can save it.
So what could be the other possible ways to solve this problem.
regards
Debasish

Dear Debashis,
T. Code: VOV7 --> Item Category: TAN --> Go to Details Page
Here, under -
Tab: Business Data --> Field: Pricing
Maintain entry as "B Pricing for free goods (100% discount)" OR keep it Empty.
Now, try.
Best Regards,
Amit
Note: Also, check the Incompletion Procedure, attached with Both the Item Categories, i.e. TAN and TANN
I think, with -
TAN, Incompletion Procedure would be 20, whereas
TAN, Incompletion Procedure would be 24
Now, go to T. Code: OVA2
Check for Both the Incompletion Procedures, i.e. 20 - Standard Item and 24 - Free of Charge Item (for Group: Sales - Item)
You will find settings:
VBAP NETWR Net value PKON 03 0
with 20 - Standard Item and not with 24 - Free of Charge Item
Hope, this would help you.
Best Regards,
Amit

Mis match in attributes of item category B and Blanket PO item details

Hi
I could not able to create a Blanket PO with document type FO and item category B (limit).
Normally for a blanket PO, GR is not allowed and IR is mandatory. So, I could able to see these checkboxes for GR (not set and grayed) and IR (set and grayed) in the item details of the PO in delivery and invoice tabs. But I end with an error message that 'GR is not set is used is not allowed' (exactly i don't remember but some thing like that)
Before creating a blanket PO, I found that in 'attributes of item categories', that for the item category B, GR is set and IR is not set (in customizing-OMH4). Of course, one cannot change the attributes of item categories.
I suppose due to this mis-match in the attributes of item categories and that in the PO, I'm getting an error message while creating a blanket PO and could not able to save.
Also I have checked all the system messages for the message displayed. No where(i.e. in any message class or category and for that message number) I found any such message defined with error in 'attributes of system messages' for purchasing, material master, inventory, invoice verification etc.
I suppose this error message is coming somewhere from the application program for the PO.
So, what can be the solution
waiting for your reply.
thank you

Thank you for your answer. I haven't mention this point in my thread but I have already tried this.
I have tried matching the GR and IR controls of account assignment category with PO GR, IR controls and also with item category B, GR, IR controls. Still i am getting the same error and could not able to save the PO
Also I have checked the field settings for PO for all categories like transaction relevant, item category relevant, etc in customizing.
Main problem is both GR and IR controls are being grayed in PO. Other wise I could able to change them as per my wish and could able to avoid the error even though the GR and IR controls in PO are correct as per the process requirement.
If possible, please check the GR and IR controls for item category B (in my system it showing that GR is set with binding and IR is not set with binding). But it should be reverse as per the process requirements and in limit PO it is showing correctly. i.e. with GR is not set with binding and IR is set with binding.
thank you

Edited by: Test on Aug 7, 2009 12:27 PM

yes, that is the problem, while creating PO system is troughing the error. thats why user is asking why PR is picking a contract which is expired!
creating PR manually. and user is having a bunch to perform such job so he can't check each PR for correct contract. and even it is not logical for system front to copy an expired contract.
2ndly one more questin, incase thr are 2 valid conact avaliable in system then while creating PR which contract system must pick

Intercompany transfer for material with item category Erla

Hi,
I have a typical requirement.
I am creating a value pack(finish good) with item category mainatined as ERLA(while mat master creation) which consistes of 2 items.
I have maintained a BOM for this value pack(finished material).
Since ERLA is maintained,I can explode BOM in Sales Order creation(correct me if I am wrong)
This is okay for sales cycle.
I have following requirement
I want to do a Intecompany stock transfer of this value pack(i.e. finish good) with doc type NB.
The problem in this is that it gives error while creating outbound delivery stating some entries missing in table (do not exactly remember)for NLCC/DOGN.. something like that.
If anyone has done this type of scenario earlier then request you to send me the configuration settings required to be done in terms of Item category/Delievry combination etc etc .
This is quite urgent for me.
If there is any different way to map this Intecompany Stock Transfer of Material (with Item category maintained as ERLA) then please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You maintain "Item category group" NORM in the Sales org 2 tab, this is used for sales organisation and distribution channel for Outboumd delivery.
The "General Item category group" does not refer to the Sales organisation and distribution channel, this is used for Inbound delivery.
In can create the material master in MM01, specify the "Material type" and "Industry sector" .
For, Item category determination in VOV4, you need to assign like this as below,
Sales doc type + Item category group + usage + Item category of higher level item = Item category.
Item category determination for free item,
OR + NORM + FREE + TAN = TANN.
As beacuse you are giving the normal material as free, therefore you must give the indication to the system to use it as free material by specifying the usage as "FREE".

Creating Sales Order- Item Category TAN is not defined.

Hello all,
I am working on Creating sales order for Global Bike Inc case. But when I enter the material and quantity number and click check mark it says "Item category TAN is not defined". Can some body help me how can we define TAN or why it is giving me that error.
Thanks in advance.
Sujan

Hi SujanB,
As your question is already answered. An indicator that defines the characteristics of a document item.
For example, the item category controls the type and scope of:
Pricing
Billing
Delivery
Inventory posting
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)
SPRO- IMG- SD- Sales- Sales Document- Sales Document Item- Assign Item Category (VOV4)
Pls refer following link for furter details ;--
general item category group
item category usage in item category determination

BOM with Item Category T

Hi friends,
The issue my user is having is that he has created a subcontracting PO ...and later while issuing thro MB1b 541... the system throws an error... PO HAS NO ITEMS..
But PO has a BOM exploded ...when i check it has item category T instead of an L... By the time i could check CS03, the user has deleted the BOM .,so i suggested to create a new one with item category L...The issue got resolved.
But my doubt is how this item category T has appeared in the BOM, since when i try creating a BOM with T i cannot enter matl code but my BOM which had popped in the PO had all details with matl code, desc , qty and item category as T..
Pls kindly advise and help me understand..
Thanks
nandu

When creating your material BOM with Item category T, do not enter the material number.
Only enter decripiton qty. and uom. This should allow you to create the BOM. You would then see this BOM in your Sub-Contract PO. I don't think it was possible you saw the material item in the BOM from your original T category items, as this would not be allowed per standard functionality, as you noted when trying to recreate the incorrect BOM.
