Diff between Gen Item Catg Group & Item Cat group In MM01

HI Gurus,
What is the difference between Gen Item Catg Group & Item Cat group In MM01?
Cheers,
Chitty

Hi
There are several posts on same issue you can find out in sdn threads
Item Category determines the processing of any Item/material that we enter in a sales order and in this way it also effects the procesing of any sales doc in which it is used.
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.
for example we can ERLA as item cat group and carry out the header level pricing or we can LUMF and do the item level pricing in case of a Sales BOM.
General item category group talks about further classification of a material. Like NLAG- non stock material can be used to identify bom header items, service items.
Item category group and general item category group difference

Diff Between Internal Table with Occurs 0 & Field Groups

Hi,
Is there really any difference between just using an internal table with an OCCURS 0 statement-- which would write the entire table to paging space-- and using field-groups? How is Field-Groups is more effective than Internal tables with occurs 0 when it comes to performance?
Could anybody please give some information regarding above question?
Thanks,
Mohan.

hi,
occurs 0 means it wont create any extra memory. based on the records only the memory is allocated to internal tables at run time. but when an internal table is created it can hold data of type to which it is declared.
i.e data: itab like mara occurs 0 with header line.
can take data only from mara table
we can also do in another way as using types keyword we can declare a standard structure and create a internal table of that type. its also not that useful as we have to change the structure depending on changes for storing data.
for this purpose field symbols are used. field symbols can hold any data means that they can point to tables, fields, any standard or user-defined types. field symbols actually points to respective types by which we can directly access to that types using field symbols.
filed symbols works more faster than internal tables.
if helpful reward some points.

Difference bet'n item cat group & gen item cat group .

can anyone know about difference bet'n item cat group & gen item cat group in material sales view?

Dear,
Considerting the remaining answers above, Please have a look:
General item category grp is used in the sales processes like BOM, where we have higher item category and the default item
categories.
General item category grp would refer to the higher level item category and item category grp would refer to the default item category
General Item category Group is an extension item category group. Example: if one select item catagory group as NORM, but under item category group, NORM can further be classified as Service item, packagaing item or Normal
item using "general item category group".
Also, General item category group is maintained at client level, this field can be maintain from Basic Data View of Material Master. Thus in case item category group is missing, then general item category group is used for item category determination.
Item category group determines how a material is processed in the sales order. When processing sales and distribution
documents, the system uses the item category group to determine the item category and proposes it in the respective document. Item category group is defined in the Sales Org View 2 of Material Master Record.
Example, in the standard SAP System, the item category group NORM is defined for materials kept in stock and the group DIEN for services and non-stock material
In Simple:
Item Category determines the processing of any Item/material that we enter in a sales order and in this way it also effects the procesing of any sales doc in which it is used.
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

In GL Master- Diff between Open Item & Balance Summary

Hi Experts
In GL Master- Diff between Open Item & Balance Summary ?
Regards
Ramakanth

Hi,
Open Item :- Select this tick if you want to see all individual line items that makes the total of the account. By selecting this tick you will be able to see both open and cleared items. GR/IR accounts should be managed on open item basis.
Line Item:- Tick this if you want to see the balance of an account by individual postings. Generally Revenue & Expense accounts should be managed on line item basis.
Hope this will help.

Diff between Item Amount Check and Stochastic Block

Hi,
what's the diff between Item Amount Check and Stochastic Block in LIV??

Item Amount Check
The system calculates the sum of the value invoiced so far for the
order item and the value of the current invoice and compares it with
the value limit of the purchase order. It then compares the
difference with the upper percentage and absolute tolerances
defined.
Stochastic Block
You can block all invoices to check them again through Stochastic block automatically. If the stochastic block is active and you post an invoice that is not subject to any other blocking reason, it can be selected for blocking.
Please make a note that- A stochastic block is not set at item level, but for the whole invoice. If a stochastic block is set when you post the invoice, the system automatically sets an R in the field Payment block in the document header data; there is no blocking indicator in the individual items.
In Customizing for Invoice Verification, you can define:
-If stochastic blocking is active
-The degree of probability of a block. You set a threshold value and a percentage for this.
If you enter a threshold value of zero and a percentage of 99.9%, all invoices would then be blocked automatically.

Diff. between header & item condition

Pls let me know the diff. between header & item condtion in SD.
How to define header & item seprately

Hi Prem,
You can make a Condition Type a Header Condition by checking the "Header Condition" check box in
SPRO -> Sales & Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Pricing Control -> Define Condition Types.
In turn, it can be made an Item Condition by checking the
"Item Condition" check box.
In an Sales Order doc you can assign a header condition by choosing the "Display document header details" button at the top right of the screen, then move to "Conditions" tab and Add the Header Condition type to the list of Conditions.
Similarly, item conditions can be set by selecting the line item and choosing the "Item Conditions" button and adding the Item Condition type.
Hope it answers your query completely.

Raj

Can't apply fills to grouped items

Just switched to MX from 10. Applying fills or strokes to
grouped items was very simple in 10 - now when I try to recolour
groups of objects (or text converted to paths) I'm being
continually frustrated. I add a fill to a group of objects and they
don't change colour, so I have to ungroup them to apply the fill.
Why oh why is it so?

This is good advice, but requires one more step. Uncheck
Preferences>Object>'Changing object changes defaults'.
For some reason, this
preference interferes with the display of attributes of
groups of identical
objects. This is another FHMX pain if you're used to working
with this
preference enabled.
Here's how I super- and sub-select on a Mac/English keyboard.
Modify keyboard shortcuts to
Subselect: F1.
Superselect: tilde key (`) is already hard-coded into FH.
These two keys are close together on the keyboard, so
alternating between
them allows you to dive down or swim up to group level.
If, for example, you have a line of text converted to paths,
with pointer
too, option-click to subselect one path, then hit Tilde to
superselect to
group level, then hit F1 to subselect. You should now see the
fill and
stroke attributes in the object inspector. Change them there.

Access Item Group Item of BoM

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to find/create an unambiguous link between the items that appear in a supply to production task and the line item of a Bill of Material (BoM) it's based on. The reason for this is that a customer would like the `line item details text' field that appears below each item in a BoM to appear on the supply to production task form in the same row as the corresponding item. Unfortunately this doesn't seem very simple --- practically all links back to the PBoM business object eventually lead to collections, which don't provide unambiguous links. I can't use material ID as a BoM variant can potentially have multiple versions of the same product but with different base quantities etc., so that's out the window. I found that going through production lot > released execution production model > production segment leads me to be able to grab the BoM/Variant/Item Group IDs fine, but the association that supposedly links to item group item is not set --- my guess is that this association is the one I need. Below is a screenshot of the code I'm using to try and access this --- as you can see, the ProductionBillOfMaterialItemGroupItem association is not set in either case, yet the corresponding association for item group is, and returns the correct item group ID. Anyone able to help/have experience with this? Thanks.
Lewis

Spoke to SAP about this. Whilst there's a 0..1 association from AcitivtyAssignment to ItemGroupItem, it's never set. Which makes me wonder why it's even there in the first place, but never mind.
They suggested going via ItemGroup first. When I did this there was no 0..1 association from ItemGroup to ItemGroupItem, merely a collection of all items in the item group. When I pointed this out, they acknowledged that there is no link. So basically, this isn't possible per se; what I've done to emulate it is a bunch of calculations based on quantity etc., as well as use the ability to manually set the item group ID of a row in a BoM, to ensure I can reliably find the row of a BoM a production task row refers to. I suppose it's case closed on this; if anyone's interested in the code, they can send me a message.

Difference - set g/l account by warehouse,item group,item level

hi all,
Pl. explain what is difference between setting
g/l accounts by warehouse,item group,item level ?
Jeyakanthan

Hi Jeyakanthan,
Let us consider an example that will make you understand this better. Consider that you are creating GRN's for Item A and Item B. The accounts that get updated are :
1. Inventory Account/Stock account: gets debited
2. Goods Received Not Invoiced Account : Gets Credited.
Now let us consider that Item A has been grouped under the item Group Raw Materials and Item B has been grouped under Item group Finished Goods. Now as mentioned above if you choose the Set G/L accounts by as Item Group in the Accounting tab of the item Group Raw Materials you will have to choose the Inventory/Stock Account as Inventory - Raw Material and for the Item Group Finished Goods the Inventory/Stock account has to be Inventory- Finished Goods. In all cases the Goods Received not Invoicved account will remain the same.When you create the GRN's the respective Inventory accounts will get debited and when you create the A/P Invoice for these the Goods Received Not Invoiced account will get Debited and the Vendor account will get credited.
Now in case if your company manages goods according to the Warehouse i.e. if the company has different warehouses for different types of goods like Raw Material warehouse for Raw Materials , Finished Goods warehouse for Finished goods then you should set the G/L accounts by Warehouse so that in the item master in the inventory Tab the respective warehouse is chosen and the relevant accounts are updated. Just for example when you choose Set G/L accounts by Warehouse for item A then in the accounting tab of the Raw Material Warehouse choose Inventoty - Raw material.
In the 3rd case consider that you are buying a Machine to be used in your workshop which is costing you around Rs. 10,00,000/- and the management wants to know the monthly utilisation costing of the machine like power, labour charges and overheads for that particular machine then it is better to define G/L accounts based on that item i.e. if Item C is a machine for which the Management wants to know the costing details then it would be better off defining a G/L account as Inventory - Item C. This option is better to be used for capital goods or Fixed assets.
For better understanding in the item master you need to initialise thru the Form settings the various G/L accounts like Goods received Not Invoiced accounts, Inventory accounts , Allocation Cost account etc.
Hope this calrifies matters.

Discount Groups - Items. How to get the Buy One Get One Free discount in the Marketing Document

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help on this one please?...
Under Stock Management -> Price Lists -> Special Prices -> Discount Groups -> Items -> I have selected a specific BP and then have selected a specific Item Code. I have stated the Paid Qty as '4' and the Free Qty as '1'.
The option 'Do Not Apply Discount Groups' is not ticked on the BP or the Item Master Data.
There are no Special Prices for this Item for the BP. Nor are there any period and volume discounts.
Can anyone think of a reason why in the Sales Order I can never get the discount when putting in '3' in the Qty column on the SO please?
Many thanks,
Caroline

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for your email, and sorry for the confusion!
I believe that when I enter '5' into the sales order the discount should come up as the Paid Qty is '4' and the Free Qty is '1'.
Either way I can never get the discount into the Sales Order...
Can you help please? I was wondering if I had missed a setting somewhere or something...
Thanks,
Caroline

One to One link between VBRP items and BSEG items

Hi All,
I am working on a program where I have to link between VBRP table items against BSEG table items.
But in BSEG, the invoice items are summarised based on Material Number, profit center etc..
Is there a way to divide them, like any other table which holds the data transferred to accounting from sales exactly as it is in the invoice tables (VBRP).
If there is no such table, can any one help me figure out a logic where I can didvide the items of BSEG table exactly like the items of table VBRP.
Any help or input will be very highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Phani

Thanks for the Replies Ramani and Monika...
I alraedy have a relation between the Accounting Doc and Billing Doc (VBRP-vbeln to BSEG-belnr).
what I am looking for is the Item wise one to one mapping.
i.e Assume that we have 4 items in VBRP under one Billing Doc....
2 items have Similar Materials (Assume XYZ) and same Profit center (eq..MNO123)
and the Other 2 items have material (ABC) and Profit center (PQR6789).
Now these appear in Bseg as only 2 items, all the items with similar materials, profit center etc will be clubbed in Bseg (While Accounting). I.e In BSEG you will only find 2 entries for the above 4 items of VBRP.
I need to divide the data that I am getting from BSEG exactly as they are in VBRP.
Pls suggest if you know of any table where I can find this.....If not a table.., then a way to figure out the division of these BSEG items exactly as the VBRP items.

Difference between booked items and requested items

Hi Gurus,
I wanted to understand the difference between
Booking History - booked items – booked date
Booking History – requested items –booked date
The Series definition has the same definition given in the hint. I checked one of the below links for the same topic but couldn't get a full view.
Which series go to Actual_quantity in Standrad collections
Can any one let me know what the difference between booked items and requested items is? As I understand in OM, we have no differentiation. Do let me know
Thanks
DNP

Hi
In normal circumstances, there is no difference between requested item vs. booked item. But if you're using Item Substitution, these could be different. For example, a customer may call to request item A but for multiple reasons it may be substituted by a different item (usually an upgrade with similar form, function etc).
Oracle APS supports this functionality out of box in order promising and ASCP where it can be done based on a pre-defined relationship based on availability etc.
Hope this answers your question, please feel free to let me know if I may help calrify further

Difference between Transaction Figures and Line Items

Hi,
I gone through FI like FI-GL,FI-AR,FI-AP..there i find...
Line Items & Transaction figures as main...like
in FI we have
Line Items - 0FI_GL_4,0FI_AR_4,0FI_AP_4 etc...
Transaction Figures - 0FI_GL_6,0FI_AR_6,0FI_AP_6 etc...
Now Can some please explain...
what exactly Line Items are?
What exactly Transaction Figures are?
How data flows from end to end in FI? i.e where exactly GL,AR,AP comes into picture..how they are internally related?
Some one please explain me in detail (with expamles if possible) and quick reply is much appreciated...
Regards
Ramsunder

Hi
What exactly line items :
Line items are document items that were posted to a specific account. In contrast to a document item a line item only contains the information from the document that is relevant from the account view.
You can display the following line items:
Open items, Cleared items, Noted items, Parked items ,Items with special G/L transactions (in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable),Items with customer or vendor items (in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable)
You can display the line items for the following account types: Customer accounts,Vendor accounts,G/L accounts.
What exactly Transaction Figures are?
Transaction figures are the sums of line items on the debit or credit side. The balance is the difference between the debit and the credit transaction figure.
If you take General ledger
AP records all accounting transactions for dealings with suppliers(Vendors). Much of its data is obtained from procurement (Materials Management).
AR records all accounting transactions for dealings with customers. Much of its data is obtained from Sales and Distribution.
Asset Accounting records all accounting transactions relating to the management of assets.
Travel Management manages and calculates travel costs and supports travel planning and travel expenses.
Bank ledger supports the posting of cash flows.

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
Edited by: krismady on Sep 22, 2010 2:26 AM
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.

OK, I'm having trouble again. I need multiple items to drag
to one target. I'm putting all my actionscript in the same frame,
and here's how it looks:
stop();
name_mc.onPress = function():Void {
this.startDrag(true);
name_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
this.stopDrag();
if (eval(this._droptarget) == safe_mc) {
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
this.removeMovieClip();
address_mc.onPress = function():Void {
this.startDrag(true);
address_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
this.stopDrag();
if (eval(this._droptarget) == safe_mc) {
this.swapDepths(this._parent.getNextHighestDepth());
this.removeMovieClip();
And I'm getting the following error message:
**Error** Scene=Recap, layer=actions, frame=1:Line 21:

address_mc.onRelease = function():Void {
**Error** Scene=Recap, layer=actions, frame=1:Line 27: Syntax

Do you know what I'm doing wrong?
