RGAfter creating an item in item master..you can go to tools and in there item categories and you can assign the categories there...Mostly my guess is if the item is a purchased item..it will be assigned to default purchasing category and it should also be assigned to inventory category too..as it is also a inventory item..

Item category change issue

Hi,
We have implemented scenario A settings for return orders to exchange and edit in both ECC and CRM systems. We are having a scenario where item category for an item in return order will be changed to the other in ECC system. In our case we have the status profile assigned to the item category which was initial and we dont have any status profile for the item category which is changed to in both ECC and CRM systems. We are gtting errors in CRM and the document is locked when the item category is changed in ECC and saved. The error is 'The status procedure could not be set from item category XXX'. Can you please suggest how can we fix this issue?
Thanks,

Hi Eric
You nay have to set the item category determination properly.
Fileds are you chould have an entry which should be something like this
Trans type -
Item cat group---The item cat that has to appear in your doc.
for example:
TA -
Standard Group-----TAN
The Item category group field is in the one you have given in your material master.
Hope this helps you.

Change in Item Category KFF after Prod Migration

Hi
Our company had to move from a 2 segment Item Category KFF to 3 segment Item Category KFF.
We know this is not recommended practice, but there was real business need for this.
Now we have written programs to change all existing transactions to have new categories.
One thing we are not able to figure out is, when we goto Setup-Items- Category Codes and query Categories, it gives an error "value for the flexfield segment does not exist in the value set". This is coming from the old Item Categories which have been end-dated.
How can we get rid of this error?

But this is not an OAF Question!?
Anyways i got my solution:
The values on this window are queried from MTL_CATEGORIES_KFV (KFF View) which in turn gets the KFF combinations from MTL_CATEGORIES_B. So deleting the values from MTL_CATEGORIES_B gets rid of this error.

Oracle Purchasing: Approvals Group: Item Category Range

Hi to All,
I was wondering if anyone has implemented, Item Category Range in the Approvals Group for Purchasing. I have a requirement for a requisitions process that if it has a category code, say X then it will bring up certain people who are attached to this category code. I was trying to see if this could be done thru the approval group in purchasing. I have tested this out where a manager has a dollar amount, account range and item category. But this fails.
I am trying to avoid doing some customization, within the WF. So if anyone has some ideas how to handle this requirement, please let me know or if you have created the item category code.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Mahesh,
Thank you so much. I have awarded points.

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

Issue while changing Item Category during Sales Order Creation

Hi,
Requirement:
Requirement is to change the item category of Sales Order item while creating the sales order.
Rule is: If item category is IRAT then it should be changed to IRLN.
For this, I am using the user exit "USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE" available in the include MV45AFZZ.
Issue:
Using the above mentioned exit, Item category is getting changed to the desired value in the created sales order BUT value of Billing Status (VBUP-FKSAA) which is supposed to get changed is blank.
For example, Sales order is created from VA01 and item category is changed manually to the value mentioned above, then for the sales order created we have VBUP-FKSAA = 'A'. But when value of Item category is not changed manually and it is changed from the exit, then value of VBUP-FKSAA is blank.
I have to find a solution which would change the value of Billing Status according to the change in the value of Item Category.
Please suggest a relevant solution.
Thanks a lot for responding.
Abhinav.
Edited by: Abhinav Jain on Apr 9, 2010 6:47 PM

Hi Abhinav,
I have a simmilar problem. In my case I am changing Reason of Rejection in the user-exit, but net value is not getting updated. Did you solve your problem? Any other way to change a field of a sales order item?
Thanking you in advance,
Nisha

How to populate item category tree with UNSPSC codes?

I have created an application engine to read a UNSPSC code csv file and execute a component interface to load the item categories. I am having a problem updating the tree we use in ePro. Do I need to set up something before I run this? It looks like you can't add nodes if the category doesn't exist and you can't add categories to the tree if the node doesn't exist. We do not have Catalog Management installed.
Edited by: jbelanger on Aug 4, 2010 8:23 AM

Dear Friend,
I am new to the iProcurement functionality of mapping UNSPSC code to Item Category Flex field Segments.
Please help me how this functionality works.
Does Oracle provide any standard way to map the codes to flex field.
Do we need a customization.
Any useful documentation will be really helpful.
Thanks in advance

Item Category Issue

Dear Experts,
While i create packaging in Handling unit ther is a tab of Additional Data in Sales and distribution.In that we have Item Category - Issue is i am inputing manual item category TAN but i want to pick automatically.
I am unable to find the setting for packaging Item category of Sales and distribution.
Plz provide your inputs.
Thanks
Shri...

Apart from what Jignesh suggested, follow the following steps for automatic packing:
1 In the Shipping screen choose Pack/load - Pack delivery. You see the Change outbound delivery screen.
2 Enter the number of the delivery that you want to pack, or select one using the matchcode function
3 Press ENTER. You see the overview screen Change Outbound Delivery: Overview - Quantities.
4 Choose Edit, then Pack. You see the screen Pack Items
If you want to pack all delivery items that are not packed, choose Edit - Automatic packing.
In this function, you do not need to select any items individually. All items and shipping units of the selected delivery that are not packed are automatically placed at the disposal of the user exits for automatic packing.
If you only wish to have certain items in the delivery packed, choose Edit then Autom.pack items
With this function, you must select the items and shipping elements to be packed. Then, only the selected unpacked items are placed into an internal table.
If you have set the supplied example to active, the program automatically searches, in both procedures, for the respective shipping materials for the items to be packed.
Thanks & Regards

Hi dear,
In SPRO-select the document type for whcih you want to set the condition.
See what field selection key you have maintained for that document type. Path for it is
SPRO-MATERIALS MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PURCHAS ORDER->DEFINED DOCUMENT TYPE.
Now in SPRO go to
SPRO-MATERIALS MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PURCHAS ORDER->DEFINED SCREEN LAYOUT AT DOCUMENT LEVEL.
Now double click on the Field Selection Key which you have found in the above step.
Double click on basic data,item and make required entry for External services Field as madatory by checking the box.
This will work.
Alternatively you can take gelp of your ABAP er ask him to put condition as per following logic.
Service code to made mandatory if Purchasing organisation is SERV and Item category is D.

Issue in Item category - urgent

In Supplementary sale order standard the item category L2N is showing +value, if it shows -value what is the impact in sales.
Kindly tell me it's very urgent.

These two Item categories you will find in Invoice correction request.
When you go for creation of "Invoice correction request"(RK) with reference to the "Incorrect Invoice", each item is duplicated in the Invoice correction request document as Credit memo items with Item category G2N and Debit memo items with Item category L2N having opposite sign. You can change in the debit memo items only here.
You will find G2N with -ve sign beacuse it is payable/going out and L2N with +ve sign beacuse it is receiveable type and you should not change those.

Issue in updating item category

Hi gurus,
I need to update the item category of the line item while saving a refund order.When a user manually enters an iitem and saves teh refund order,the item category should be updated say set to ZTR1.
I have used set property as follows
lv_entity_save->set_property( EXPORTING iv_attr_name = 'ITM_TYPE' iv_value = lv_itemcat ).
But when i check teh orderadm_i table the item category doesnt get updated.If i click 'save' omce again from the ic web and then check teh table , the item category gets updated.
That means on hoitting the save button twice,my item category gets updated.
Can someone please suggest?

Hi,
Once you set the property, you need to create an instance of the core and modify it.
data: lv_core TYPE REF TO cl_crm_bol_core.
lv_core = cl_crm_bol_core=>get_instance( ).
lv_core->modify( ).
This should solve the problem.

Yella Reddy

Preceding Ref Mandatory issue Item Category definition

Hi Friends,
Here I am facing a problem that, I have created an item category which will be used in Quotation creation.
And Maintained Preceding Ref. Object type as 'Opportunity', made its as mandatory.
But while I am creating Quotation, its not showing any error even though there is no any preceding reference document.
Please let me know the reason.
Thanks,
Manoj

You can try this.
Go to IMG SD > Basic Functions > Partner Determination > Set Up Partner Determination > Set Up Partner Determination for Sales Document Item.
There create a new Partner Det.Procedure say Z, by copying standard N. Next click on Partner Functions in Procedure. Now, against this new Z procedure, you can see that special stock partner. Against that partner, select the box Mandatory.
Next click on Partner Determination Procedure Assignment and select Item Category KEN and assign Z.
Finally, assign this Z to your item category in VOV7
Now try the process and update the forum.
thanks
