Item category for Configurable material in return sales

Hi all
I would like to know the Item category for the Configurable Material in Sales Returns process. (In MTO scenario)
Thanks and Regards
BMS

Hi BMS
The item category will be REN , because the return process is same . But the only thing is in REN item category you have to maintain the BOM data as item categroy TAC has
Secondly make sure in item category determination in VOV4 you determine the item category REN .
For example RE + 0004 + --- + = REN

Price for packing material

hi all,
I do delivery & packing in VL01N. But when I create the invoice in VF01 the system gives error "mandatorycondition XYZ missing."
The mandatory conditions are the basic price and the txes conditions. The item category for packing is not relevant for pricing. Also the Packing & Forwarding charges are 3%. So no need to carry out pricing for packing. But the packing materials are also excisable so how to to claculate the prices.
Please reply it is urgent.

Allabaqsh G. Patil

Hi Patil,
Try to change the item category to TAN.

No item generated for packaging material in delivery - packing (how?)

Hi all,
I am trying to customize packing for deliveries. I would like to have the packaging material as a line item in the delivery. I know this is possible but I can't seem to make it happen.
I have already ticked "Gen. pack.matl item" in my delivery type. Also, I have selected in the packaging type "B Item generation in first packed delivery" for "generatedlvItms" option.
Now, in the delivery after I packed the items, no line item was generated in the delivery for the packaging material. The "No. of Packages" in item overview is correct and the status is "C" completely packed. Btw, I am using manual packing here.
Is there some more configurations I missed here?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I assume that your basic HU configuration and master data have to be ok because you are able to pack your goods.
1) Are you able to add your item w/o HUM (=not by creating a HU, just adding the material as a simple item) to the delivery? /For this you need define a record in T184L (where usage "PACK" is not there)/.
If you are able it means that e.g. your delivery copy control settings are ok (V_TVCPLAK; delivery type: LF and sales doc type: DL --> HUPM/DLN item categories in your case)
2) If you are able to
- create the handling unit manually in the delivery
- add the packing item to the delivery (w/o HUM) and also have the T184L with usage "PACK"
- item generation is maintained for your packing material time "A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-KZPGN
- plant determination for packing material type ("A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-WERFD)
it should work in my opinion (for delivery type LF).

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.

Default item category for components in task list

Hii all,
I need one help. We need to maintain default item category for components in task list.
Currently it comes as "L" and the field is non editable.
Is there any way wherein i can edit the item category to "N" or any other. Also need to know why this category "L" appears?
I can brint the default item category in the service order by the standard config.(PM/CS--> Maint & serv processing --> Main & Service orders --> General data --> define default values for component item categories)
But i want it in the task list.
Please help
Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
Just go to task list and then to component. go to item category field and press F1 (help)
its mention
Item Category (Bill of Material)
Categorization of the items in a BOM according to set criteria, such as whether they refer to an object (for example, material master or document info record) or whether they are kept in stock.
To my knowledge It wont be possilbe have item category N in task list by directly adding material.
Hi Pete,
Correct me if i am wrong that configuration setting for default material type and item category works for orders only.

Item category for pricing only

Hey Gurus,
I am looking for an item category where the material that we enter as a line item on the sales order is only valid for pricing. We do not want to create a delivery for the material or perform an availability check on that material at the line item level.
For instance,
Material 8000380 is the top level assembly and this is the shippable product to a customer. We would like to add on a custom packaging 6007122. We were thinking that we would create a new material for this, assign a cost and let PR00 allow us to specify the price on the sales order.
Do you gentlemen recommend an approach for this?

Hey Hrishi,
the reason why we want this is that we didn't want to set up variant configuration. IT was decided that we would not use variant configuration since the majority of the options are controlled by our subcontractor.
Since we are not shipping those components to the supplier, we had to have a way of telling the subcontract supplier which materials to put on the finished good. in the case of the packaging, the customer requested special packaging in which case it was decided that we would filfull that request.
Since the supplier isn't charging us anymore for the product, it is already included in the transfer price, but it costs us more money to sell it with the custom packaging, we wanted a way to price it differently on the sales order.
Since we never own the stock for this packaging, we can't really create a delivery against it since it comes with the finished good from the supplier. So we thought that we would create a different material that would represent the packaging and price it on the sales order so that we could recognize the cost and price on the sales order.
Let me know if this makes sense.

Discounts by item category for selected customers

Hi sap gurus,
here the business requirement is "Discounts by item category for selected customers"
give me some inputs regarding this issue,
Thanks & Regards
Venkat.Dhanemkula

Hi ,
let me approach this in two methods for discount .
method 1) ( scale basis discount) ex for 100 pcs 10% discount or .. 100kg 1% discount ....
goto v/06 then scroll down .. select the condition type that u are using then click detail button, scroll down and there u can see SCALES section.. in that u can select scale basis .. here u can select either quantity basis , weight basis , volume basis depending on type of material ...or u can go for the scale formula (may require abap rountines for special requirements like writing formula ). and save and assign this in the pricing procedure ..
method 2 ) normal discount
for discounts condition type to select is KA00. now go to the item level (VA02 to change the existing sales order ) in the item category and double click the item .. then go to conditions tab and enter the new condition type KA00 and then enter the % of discount you want to give in the amount field and then press enter and then save ...
this way u can attain discount at the item level for ea
ch item .. if there are hundreds of items then its better u assign KA00 condition type in the pricing procedure .to the selected customers ... i mean maintain in the info record VK11.. customer and material and the pricing procedure ... that should solve your problem i guess ...
thanks ,
madhan

Its content must not be changed by customers.
Even in change mode, you can only display the characteristics of the item categories

Delivery Item Category for Batch Split

Dear All,
Referring to Stock Transfer Order
ME21N --> VL10I --> Vl02N --> PGI --> MIGO
During delivery we select multiple batches through Batch Split.
In my Development server the system determines Item Cat as NLN (NLNORMCHSP = NLN)
In my Quality server the system determines Item Cat as ULN (NLNORMCHSP = ULN)
The setting for Both Item cat is same Except NLN is marked for Error during over delivery.
Pls suggest me which one is appropriate.
Thanks & regards,
Shailendra Panhale

Mr. Gauravijit
Pl try the following configuration
Go to logistic Eex->Shipping->Deliveries->define item category for deliveries
Delivery type - item category group - usage--item cat
LF NORM CHSP TAN
Pl try the above configuration and do the batch split in the delivery.

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.
