Urgent - How to change Item category for Open Purchase Order

Hi Team,
Lil bit tricky issue.
My client has asked us to change the existing Item Category values, Combinations, Category Set etc. Its been changed and uploaded successfully.
The question here is how we need to handle the category for Open Purchase Order. How to update the same.
Do we need to do manually or any other way ?
Please advice
Regarads,
John

Hi John,
This is reallly a tricky issue!
I guess you cannot change the category of an existing PO's.
This field will be greyed out once we save the form...there were no profiles/other setups to enable this field.
For all new PO's since you have changed the new category value that should not be a issue.
Lets wait for some of our colleuges opinion.
I guess PO cancel should be the final option if we dont hear any new work arounds.
Thanks

Unable to change item category in Create SA with ref to contract

We have a centralised subcontracting contract (item category "L") in place for a material. The requirement is to create a scheduling agreement with reference to this contract line item item category "Blank" (Standard).
But the item category field is greyed out (display only) when we try to create scheduling agreement with refernce to contract on the "Adopt + Details" screen. And we are not able to change the item category "L" to "Blank". Is there a way we can make this item category field editable on this screen before we hit "Adopt + Details".
I have tried most of the field selection configuration, but there is no specific field selection group for this screen.
Please note that the system allows you to change the item category when you create a PO with reference to this contract.

Thanks Manu for your suggestion!
But this is the process that we need to map. Request others to respond if they have comes across such a requirement and able to address it.
Again I want to make a note here that if it is possible on POs, there should be a way to make it work for SAs.

We need a No-Charge TAQ item Category for a Sales BOM

We have a situation where we will bring in several Sales BOM's on a Sales order, but need to have one or more of the Sales BOM's to be a No-Charge item (similar to a TANN Item Cat).
We are using ERLA (top down) Item Category Group for the Sales BOM materials and when we use these materials in a sales order I would like to be able to change the some of the Sales BOM's Item Category to a No Charge category (we created a ZAQ item category for this situation), but when you creating the Sales Order, the top level item where the pricing is (the TAQ item category) is GRAYED out and I can not change it to our new ZAQ category, even though it appears in the drop down list for the Item Category.
Is there any way to make the top level TAQ item category for Item Cat. Group ERLA a maintainable field on the Sales order?

As I know- std , will not support Return scenario of Sales BOM & Free goods.
Work around may be needed to achieve this, other than standard.
Create Zitem category by copying from REN - (ZREN - with structure scope & application), determine item category for sub items as well.
Maintain copy controls accordingly from RE to LR - Ret delivery & RE- Credit for returns.
Test & revert.

Item category for free goods that does not require extra free goods

Hi all,
I have created 3 item categories (ZM1J, ZM0J and ZMFJ)
ZM1J is standard item for sales
ZM0J is free goods
ZMFJ is also free goods
I have setup VBN1 for free goods "buy 10 get 1 free" and my order is including these 3 item categories
ZM1J 10 EA and ZM0J 1 EA. These 2 lines are correct as I need.
Then I give other free goods which is ZMFJ 10 EA and system is asking me to give free goods 1 EA but I don't want to give free goods for ZMFJ. I will deliver only 21 EA (10 for sales and 11 for free)
What config it should do for this case?
Another question, ZM0J is selected by default. How to manually change it to ZMFJ in sales order? This is because some case, I still need to use ZM0J.
Please advise. Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Darin

Hi,
Item category is determined by the four combination
Sales order + item category group + usage + item category at higher level.
Now you are using free goods determination procedure.
So that does not depend upon item category determination.
You have to define the item category determination so that proper delivery and proper pricing happens.
Now if you are giving 10more free item for which you have maintain free goods determination master data.
Then system will automatically give one more free goods for that material.
but if you giving some other material as a free goods then please let me know.
Give your requirement that in which way you want to process your ZMFJ then we can give you better suggestion.
To define alternative item category go to
IMG u2013 SD u2013 Sales u2013 Sales documents u2013 sales document item u2013 assign item category.
Over here you can assign alternative item category for your combination.
If you assign over here then you can change manually in the sales order.

Raj.

Changing item category in sales order

Hi,
For some of the materials in the sales order, the item category is grayed out and I cannot change it.
I can access the drop down menu and see the various item categories assigned to the item category group.
How can I change the item category for these materials in the sales order?
Sincerely,
Ketan

hi.
Ketan
As u r saying that you can take drop down of the assign item catagory there then only one possibility is left that u have deliver some of the qty from the order. So system is not allowing u to change item catagory.
Please check have u made any delivery from that sales order.
if yes then u can not change item catagory.
Hope this will help you.
Thx.

Change item category of BOM component

Hi,
Our user wanted to change the item category for BOM components through transaction IB12 using LSMW.Wanted to confirm whether it is possible to change item categoryof BOM component from "N" to "L" through LSMW.What exactly will be effected because of this change?And the steps to change the item category from "N" to "L" for the list of BOM component using LSMW.
Request your valuable thoughts.
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Rubina Rahman

Hi Rubina,
N is non stock item
L is stock item
You have to make sure why the business warants to chnage the item category.
To answer the question:
It is possible to chnage the item category from "N" to "L" through LSMW (Provided depends on the number of components used in a BOM. If the number of items exceeds to multiple screen, then you have to think of developing BDC)
The effect will be: with item category "N" if the material is used in the order, based on the configuration the system shall automatically trigger the purchase requisition. With item category "L" it is assumed as stock is available and taken care by MRP program.
Suppose if it is material BOM:
          A. Use T.code: CS02 in LSMW recording
          B. Provide information like Material number, Plant, BOM usage
          C. In the item level change the item category from N to L
          D. Save the recording
          E. I hope you know the remaining LSMW process steps
Cheers,
Raj

BADI BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW for PO created from Bid.

Hi gurus.
Iu2019m working in classic scenario, and I need to change PO data before to create the PO in ECC.
When we create a PO form SC we can change data in BADI BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW (methods FILL_PO_INTERFACE and FILL_PO_INTERFACE1) without problem. But when we create a PO from a BID the BADI doesnu2019t work.
If we fix a break-point the system stop for PO created from SC, but doesnu2019t stop for PO from Bid.
Any suggest?
Thanks and regards.
Raúl.

What you can try is to use the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI for BID: when price is 0: clear IR_IND (invoice expected) and GR_IND (goods receipt expected) on item level. Be prepared for SRM putting back those indicators though (SRM gets these from the vendor details).
The badi you mentioned in your first post should be the one you have to use as you are in classic mode. I would raise an OSS note because the way you use the badi is correct - it should be called and if it doesn't SAP has to provide a solution.
Maybe there is a user-exit in ECC in the function module that creates the order (BAPI_PO_CREATE1) as a (hopefully temporary) work around.

Robin

Change item category in delivery order

Hi everyone
Issue: Can not change item category in delivery order.
Phenomenon:
1:Create purchase order and receive item based on it. complete invoice verification.
2:Use MIGO to create return delivery based on material document that is created during above process.
3:Based on system settings, (Sales org, ship-to party etc), outbound delivery is automatically created in background.
4:Try to change item category which is already determined during delivery order creation, but it is grayed out.
Can we change item category in this situation?
I have checked thread "Number of attempts to change Item Category
This looks same issue but I still do not know how to control item category in delivery order.
In material type, is there any place I can configure to allow user to change item category
in delivery order?
Please advise.

hi,
You can the item category field (VBAP-PSTYV) editable , if item is configurable (item category TAC), then change item category to TAS.
by using include MV45AFZZ - FORM USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION.
when screen 4001 or 4003.
   IF VBAP-PSTYV = 'TAC'.
           SCREEN-INPUT = 0.
          MODIFY SCREEN.
        ENDIF.

Error : Item Category could not created.

Hello SAP Masters,
While creating a "sales process" in SAP CRM I've got the following error
"Item Category could not created"
Now let me tel you what exactly I've done, I have defined a "Sales Process" Type transaction called "Ysal" and by copying the slandered Item Category "Tan" I've created "ZTAN" , and for the Item category group and the Item Category Usage I've created "ZItem Group" and "ZItem usage".
Now in the Item Category determination I've filled up
Transaction Type = Ysal
Item Cat. Group = ZItem Group
Item Cat Usage = Zitem Usage
Main Item Cat. = Ztan
and under Item Category determination
Item Category = ZTAN
after this I've created A product Master and a ,material where I've assigned Item Category Group, and the product master.
Now Please explain why I've got this error, as I've maintained the determination properly so in my view during transaction creation Item Category should be determined automatically.
One more thing I am confused about "Higher Level Item Category" and "Lower Level Item Category" please explain.
Thanks and Regards
Rahul

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, as per your guidance left the "Item Category" field blank, and also the "Main Item Category" as blank and selected my "ZTAN" in Item category.
After that It worked, and the Item Category perfectly determined.
But there is error for "ATP" not checked. Can you please explain. Also please explain what is "Main Item Category".
As you have said the higher level category is for main product, and lower level category is for dependent product like free product, then if there is scenario where no free product , in that case what should be done?
Thanks and Regards
Rahul
