guidence from you, in what combination we have to assign Item Category to
Sales Order type. i.e.Sales Doc. Type-Item cat.group-Item usage-ItemCat-HgLvItm.
Important fieldsfor Item category determination process:
Define Item Categories*

The method of assignment of item category is carried out in t-code VOV4 and please have a look into this t-code and you wil have the exact idea regarding the sequence/combination for item category determination.

  • Reason for creating new item category

    when should we create a new item category

    HI premkumar
                A rule of thumb in SAP is "Not to change the Standard Setting" Either it is Order document, item category,schedule line, pricing procedure, delivery type, billing type e.t.c.
                 Basically it depends on the BUSINESS REQUIREMENT,why we go for customization. 90% of the BR will not fit into SAP STANDARD setting. So, when u have to change any of the existing setting like creating a New sales order document for particular business only ( Foods business..) ( though we generally use TAN as standard item category ) we can derive a cusomtized one as per our needs.
    BR needs may be:
    1. New Partner Determination procedure
    2. New Text determination procedure.
    3. New pricing setup
    4. New incomplete procedure.
    there are a lot more to come. When your Business needs any change in the existing TAN setting, SAP gives u the flexibility of creating new Item category.
    Also, if you start changing STANDARD setting ( TAN) as per your needs, SAP doesn't support it when u have some problems or any UPGRADE issue.
    This is the real need of CUSTOMIZATION in any Business /CLIENT.
    Hope this helps.

    As i know , item category determination in VOV4.

    thanks in advance.
    VARMA

    Dear Ravi Varma,
    Please copy the standard ITEM CATEGORY based on your scenario and then save in VOV6.
    Assign the same for your document type in VOV4.
    Another important thing you have to keep in mind is you have to include this NEW ITEM CATEGORY in the copy controls as well.
    (in VTLA & VTFL)
    Please check and revert back.

  • Creation of New Item Category

    Hi All
    Can anyone give an example of when a new item category creation will be required in practical ?
    Anil

    Hi Anil,
    It is always recommended to use standard item categories. Create new item categories if the functionality you require cannot be covered by the standard item categories. Following are the attributes and functions of a BOM  item category.                                                                               
    o   Is a material number required?                                                                               
    o   Is the item to be used in inventory management on a quantity basis
    o   Is the item a text item only, with no other functionality?                                                                               
    o   Is the item to be used as a variable-size item with the option of entering individual sizes ?                                                                               
    o   Is the item a document item?                                     
         The document item category allows you to enter a document which you created using the document management system.                                                                               
    o   Is the item a class item?                                        
         For configurable material BOMs, you can enter a class in which materials or documents are classified. When you assign characteristic values during BOM configuration, the class node is replaced by the object with the required characteristic values. In this way, the workload involved in maintaining BOMs with many variants is reduced, because you no longer have to enter all items individually and assign selection conditions to them.                                                                               
    o   Are sub-items supported?                                                                               
    o   Is the item a plant maintenance structure elment?               
         If the item is a PM structure element, the system does not check 
    If the requirement is to obtain the functionality by shuffling the above combinations, only than go ahead. 99 out of 100 times, the standard categories are suffiecient.
    Reward if cleared and close the thread.

  • Wanted a new item to be released for Blanket PO instead of old item

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement :
    A new item (B) is replaced for an old Item (A), ie the purchasing flags are disabled for the old Item (A).
    And the item releationships for the Old and New Item are defined in inventory.
    There are few Open Blanket PO's where the old item is present in the Po's,now we wanted to release a PO for the new item instead of old item in the PO.
    Client don't want to update the new item to the old item.
    Please let us know how to use this functionlality.And the steps /setups to achive this.
    Thanks
    Sreekanth

    Hi Sreekanth,
    I guess your requirement is not achievable...
    As long as the item is present in BPA then the same item will be defaulted in Release...we cannot use new item here even touch we have item relationship.
    if you require a new release for the new item then you need to create a new BPA.
    I guess Item releation ship wont work here.
    I tried to work it out thru sourcing rules by creating a BPA with old item and putting new item in assign sourcing rule window....but while releasing thru autorelease old item got defaulted in the new release.

  • SRM: Item category B/D for limit PO

    Hello Team,
    Want to pose a question ? When created a Limit PO into SRM (item category Limit), I found that the back-end PO replica is been created with item category D.
    Sounds starnge ?
    I believe i did build the system correct with new account assignment category for UNKNOWN. Still system is picking up wrong item category and hence all calculations are going awary.
    Please advice.
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Sandeep,
    In addition to what Yann said. My analysis is:
    There is one more dimention to this is that the vendor master flag "GR-based invoicing" has the impact on POs item category. If this flag from vendor master don't get transferred to PO then implement the OSS notes 956083.
    Now after applying this notes you see the standard functionality:
    If let say, we are creating PO with "Invoice Only" flag then there are follwoing options:
    a) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is checked then the POs goes into D item category and you can enter a service sheet for them.
    b) If the "GR based invoice" flag in vendor master is NOT checked then the POs goes into B item category and you can enter invoice just after PO.
    Please assign points as applicable.

  • Item category group used for scrap materials

    hello gurus
    Can u pls tell me what is the item category group used for scrap materials in the material master?
    Thanks in advance
    Warm Regards
    Prashant.

    Prashanth,
    Item Category
    Item Category used is IRVE or you can create your own Item caegory by clicking "New entries"
    a. Schedule line is activated
    b.  Incompletion Procedure = 43 repair item
    c. Screen  Seq Group is mentione.
    Item Category Group
    There is no item category group existing. You can create your own item category group "SCRAP". you basically use "Tem category Group" along with Sales Document to determine item category
    You need to create a ZSCR scrap material type and assign "SCRAP" item category group to material type
    Assign Item categories
    Carry out the Item category determination for Item Category Group.

    Sundarachellam,
    Well, why do you need to create a new item category? It would help if you can clarify your business scenario so that it would be easier for us to make the right recommendation.
    Regarding your question, the answer is a NO. It is not possible to create a new item category in SAP. The item category table (T163) is an SAP system table and cannot be changed by customers. Please read OSS note 61345 for a further explanation.
    In simpler terms, SAP has built a great amount of control around the item category in the way it has designed its standard PO program and the way it is processed in the program. They do not want customers to mess around with this.
    Then again, nothing is impossible in SAP. Probably, an expert ABAP programmer can understand the way the item category is processed in the PO program and you may well be able to modify the system by creating an entry in table T163 and use it during PO creation. But, this is certainly not recommended by SAP.
    Hope this helps.

  • New Item category Determination in delivery

    Hi Experts ,
    I want new item category to be determined in delivery i did all the customisation for Del Item category to be determined in IMG ,any suggestions in this .
    Regards
    VKS

    Hi,
    You have to define the new item categories for the deliveries in the IMG
    path: 
    IMG-->LOGISTICS EXECUTION-->SHIPPING-->DELIVERIES-->DEFINE ITEM CATEGORIES
    After defining the Item categories yo have to assing the item categories to the delivery documents in the IMG
    Path:
    IMG-->LE-->SHIPPING-->DELIVERIES-->DEFINE ITEM CATEGORY DETERMINATION IN DELIVERIES
    here you have to assign the default item categories for the
    DELIVERY DOCUMENT TYPE
    ITEM CATEGORY GROUP
    USAGE
    HIGHER LEVEL ITEM CATEGORY
    for the above combination assign the default item category and save
    Now the item category will be atomatically determined in the transaciton of delivery creation once you create the delivery
    Please check the above settings and revert
    thanks,

  • HT5622 my i tunes id is not working......i try to create new id but it requires my visa card info....what should i do

    my i tunes id is not working......i try to create new id but it requires my visa card info....what should i do. how can i get my precious id or how can i create new id without giving visa information. i tried but there is no none option in visa card part

    What do you mean by 'my iTunes id is not working' ? Of you mean that it's disabled then you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    You might then need to log out of your account on your iOS deviced by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If you mean something else ... ?
    In terms of creating a new account, there are instructions on this page for how to create one without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 - the instructions won't work with existing accounts, and any content that you bought/downloaded with your existing acocunt will remain tied to that existing account.
