Item Category Group 0001 not available
Hi,
We need to use Item Category Group 0001 - Make-to-order in CRM 2007. This group is not available as of CRM 2007. The list starts with 0002 - Config.at Mat.Level.
Is it a standard setting or only our CRM 2007 instance is missing this?
If it is a standard arrangement, do we need to maintain a Z Item category group for Make to order products?
Kindly resolve the confusion!!
Thanks,
Sharad
Hi,
The item category group 0001 is missing.I guess then you need to create a new type on your own.

My case: I have a configurable item and based on this item subsequent item and its it. cat. is determined, once SAP determines second item it is graying out it. cat fields on both items. Though in configuration I have manual it. cat. maintained for both items along with dependancies. Any info on this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Item category group not exist in CRM
Hi all,
I u2018m getting an error item category group not exist in CRM that item category group is in R/3
So my question is weather I have to create that item category group in CRM or I have to download that one from r/3.
If I create in CRM how to link the R/3 item category group to CRM one.
Regards
RamiThere is definitely no exchange of neither transaction types nor item categories between an erp and a crm system. Also the dependent object like the organisational data profile or the partner profile are not exchanged.
Instead for those transactions that are exchanged you need to do the customizing the same way in both systems, ERP and CRM.

For example, the item category controls the type and scope of:

Providing further deatils ;--
01. How item category is determined :--
Depending on the item category group that you apply & the sales doc type you are processing the system automatically proposes an item category in the document.
1.sales document type (source: order type)
2.item category group (source: material master)
3.item category of the higher-level item (source: user defined)
4.item category usage (The usage is defined by SAP and is hard coded in the programs)
SPRO- IMG- SD- Sales- Sales Document- Sales Document Item- Assign Item Category (VOV4)

Order type and Item category group
Can anyone tell me which is the relation between order type and Item category group from material master ??
In fact the problem is that I have created a material and when I want to create new sales order it gives me this errror:
"No item category available (Table T184 ZORDER ZITGR)"
Is there a tranzaction where I can assign Item category group ZITGR to sale order type ZORDER or something like that??
What should i do?Hi Dan,
Goto T-Code VOV4 and maintain the table
Sales Doc type + Item Category Group + Usage + Higher level Item Category = Item Category
TA + NORM + Nil + Nil = TAN
If you have Customized your own Document Type and Item Category Group and Item Category then give your
Sales Doc type (ZORDER)+ Item Category Group (ZITGR)+ Usage + Higher level Item Category = Item Category (ZTAN)
Reward if helpful

Missing Item Category Group data in Material SD data in CRM
Hi crm experts,
Please help us. We are trying to identify what's the rootcause of the problem we experienced in CRM regarding the Item category group. We are maintaining material master in ECC and it will be replicated in CRM via middleware. The data item category group is properly maintained in ECC but when we checked in CRM, only 3 of the sales areas have it.
Sales Area 1 - YES
Sales Area 2 - NO
Sales Area 3 - YES
Sales Area 4 - YES
So we will do a request load for the data to show also on Sales Area 2.
Item category group were maintained in the ff tables:
ECC table TPTM
CRM table CRMV_ITEM_CAT_GR
Can you please let us know how we can pin point this problem so that this will not happen again? We want to apply a permanent solution if there is. Hoping for your kind assistance. Thanks!
Best regards,
Mikehi
General item category group
Materials grouping that helps the system to determine item categories during sales document processing.
*If a group is configured specific to distribution channel, it has priority if the corresponding activity is distribution channel-dependent
Item category group from material master
A grouping of materials that the system uses to determine item categories during the processing of sales documents.
the difference between the two lies in the specificity to the distribution channel

Item category RENN is not defined for this item
Hey SD experts,
I've created a sales order with free of charge and standard items.
Now, I'm trying to create a return order with reference to this sales order.
I got this error message: Item category RENN is not defined for this item.
I've checked in VOV4 : the combination Sales document type + Itemcategory group =>Itemcategory seems to be correct.
Why am I getting this error message then ?
Regards,
Bahia.Dear Bahia,
Check item level copy control settings between Sales order free of charge and Return sales order i.e copy control settings between free of charge order item category and returns order itemcategory.
Once again check item category determination through VOV4 transaction for the combination of
Your returns order document type+Itemcategory group-->RENN.
I hope this will help you,

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.

Item category group for Raw Materials
Hello Gurus,
Goodmorning,
I have a client requirement,
Here my client is selling the Raw materials , i have some confusion in taking the category group , what is the item category group we have to use for determing for the sales categories ? I don't find any special item category group for raw material . in material master as well as in item category determination in in sales document types too .
looking for your inputs in this regard.
Thanks &Regards
Ravi.MHello Ravi,
Sales of Raw material already being discussed some times back.
As I know, as per Central Excise law, you are not suppose to sell the raw material from a manufacturing unit.
Hence, you rename the ROH material code with suffix A. In tcode OSM2, activate sales view tab.
Apart from this, you need to maintain the renamed code in tcode J1ID with numeric value 1 under the tab Declared.
But, normal OR-LF-F2 process.
FYI - Choose of Material tyoe will be important than choose of general item category group. As I Cat group, Materials grouping that helps the system to determine item categories during sales document processing. If a group is configured specific to distribution channel, it has priority if the corresponding activity is distribution channel-dependent. In the standard system, there are normal items, items that signify services (and therefore need no delivery processing) and items that signify packing material, for example.
Thanks & Regards

Dear Gurus
I want to create the BOM for Computer = Screen + Herdisk + Key board
1) Main Item Level processing
I have maintained item category group ERLA in MMR (Sales 2 screen) of the finished product
(Computer 1 ).
What item category group should be maintained for sub items?
2) Subitem Level Processing
I have maintained item category group LUMF in MMR (Sales 2 screen) of the finished product
(Computer 2).
What item category group should be maintained for sub items?
3) Also explain about how to mainatin the master records (CS01).
Regards,
Ashish
Edited by: Ashish Desai on Apr 8, 2009 1:10 AMAshish,
Suppose the material is completed then the value is shown against final product. In that case we use Item vategory Group ERLA. The maina item category will be shown as TAQ. The Subitem will take item category TAE (text item)
If the material is still not complete then the value is ascertaind through sub items in that case LUMF item category is used and item category for the main item is TAP and for sub items it is TAN.
In any case we will change the item category group as (ERLA or LUMF) in the material master of the final material "Computer". Where as the subitems item category will be "Norm".
Note: If you use standarad Order = OR, and standard item category group ERLA in the Finished MAterial Conmputer, then system will automatically assign item categories for Main item = TAQ and SUb Items = TAE.
Standard process and ORder = OR
Then Execute MM02 for finished material or Main materialo alone i.e., "Computer", Assign Item Category Group = ERLA and save. Then create BOM CS01, CS11 Single level the output will be
COMPUTER = TAQ
SCREEn = TAE
HERdisk = TAE
Key board= TAE.
Similarly if you proceed process by changing Item category group = LUMF for main material i.e., Finished goods "Computer" then
COMPUTER = TAP
SCREEn = TAN
HERdisk = TAN
Key board= TAN
If you are changing the document type prefixed with Z , then you need to proceed with "Assign tem Catgeory"

Hello All
can any one explain the functional use of Item category group maintained in CRM material master under basic data tab and also under sales and distribution tab.
what is the difference between two views and what happens if dont have value at Sales and distribution level.
Regards
PhaniHi Phani,
1. Item category Group is just a key which comes from the Product master and helps in the item category determination.
Item category group in the Material Tab, is a general Item category Group valid for all sales areas.
Whereas the one maintained in the Sales and distribution tab becomes specific to that particular sales area.
For eg: To a Product HT-1011 u have assigned two sales areas say A and B
In the Material tab, we assign item category group NORM
In the Sales and Distribution tab, for sales area A , we assign item category group ZORM.
In the item category determination the following settings are maintained:
Assumption transaction type is TA.
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group : NORM
Item category: TAN
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group : ZORM
Item category: TANN
Now in the sales order if u enter product HT-1011 and choose sales area A, TANN will get determined, if u choose B TAN will get determined.
It is not mandatory to put the item category group. It onlu helps in the item category determination.In case u have not assigned any item category group, it will look for a item category dtermination entry something like:
Transaction Type: TA
Item category Group :
Item category: TAN
Wish this helps.

Missing Item Category Group in Sales Area data
Hi,
Can you please help us. We cannot load some materials to our product catalog because of missing item category group in our sales area in crm. Can you please let us know why this happens? I know that this can be fix by doing request load but what might be the possible rootcause of this problem? Let us know if we need to check something. Thanks!
Regards,
MikeAny such missing configuration can not be dealt with technical manipulations. The easiest and right way is to (middleware) download or maintain all the required configuration settings.
The possible root cause? Most probably the configuration in the source system (ECC) has changed and not all of them are in place in the CRM system. Check and run the delta / full downloads as appropriate. -
Replicating materials. Item category group is empty.
I am loading material from R/3 to product in the CRM.
I am use BDOC MATERIAL.
I see that field 'Item category group' in the product in CRM is empty, but material in the R/3 system is filled.
Anybody ideas?Hi Denis,
Make sure the required item category groups are manually entered in the CRM table CRMV_ITEM_CAT_GR. If a specific item category group is missing in this table, then during the material download this field remain empty.
Maintain the required entry and then download the MATERIAL again
Do not forget to reward if helps

Item category & item category group
Hi
What is the Function of item category and item category group?
thanx in advhi,
read this help file.
Using the item category group, you group together different material
types for item category determination from the SD view. For every
material type, you can define a default item category group which is
proposed by the SAP System when you create a material master record. For
more information on setting default values please refer to the section
"Define material type defaults.
In the sales document, the system determines the item category from the
item category group of the material and from the sales document type and
proposes this item category in the document. You assign item categories
to sales order types and item category groups elsewhere. You can find
further information on this in the section "Assign item categories".
Actions
If you define your own item category groups, the keys should start with
the letter Z, since this name convention is kept free in the standard
SAP System for this purpose.
1. Check whether you can use the item category groups in the standard
version.
2. If you want to create new item category groups, you must enter an
alphanumeric key with a maximum of 4 characters as well as a textual
description.
Item Catgeory:
In this menu option, you define item categories for sales documents. The
item categories that are contained in the standard SAP R/3 System
together with the sales document types represent the usual business
transactions.
You have the following options for defining your own item categories:
o Copy an existing item category and change it according to your
requirements.
o Create a new item category.
Recommendation
If you define your own item categories, the keys should begin with the
letter Z since SAP keeps this range free in the standard system and
protects it from being overwritten during release upgrades.
If you define your own item categories, you should copy similar item
categories that are defined by SAP and make the required changes there.
In this case, all the specifications of the existing item category are
copied - even the assignment to the sales document types. In particular,
the data for example concerning partner determination, pricing or
document flow which you do not edit on the detail screen of the item
category is also copied. Consequently, you can test the new item
category for the settings made without having to edit the other menu
options.
When copying sales document types, item categories and schedule line
categories, the SAP system automatically creates a log with the copied
data. Using the log, you can check whether all of the copied data
applies to your item category or whether you must make changes.
Note
If you create or copy a new item category that is to be used for a
delivery, you must also define a delivery item category with the same
name. The SAP system automatically transfers the item category that was
found for the sales document item into the delivery item.
Activities
If you only need to make minor changes to the existing item categories
(e.g. changed description), then you change this as appropriate. Minor
changes refer to parameters that have no controlling character.
If you need to make further changes, define a new item category by
copying a similar item category supplied in the standard system and then
change this according to your requirements. In this way, you can for
example define an item category for which a certain type of pricing is
carried out, or for which the data must not differ at header and item
level but which otherwise matches an existing item category.
If you want to create an item category, proceed as follows:
1. Enter an alphanumeric key with a maximum of four characters.
2. Maintain the respective specifications of the detail screen.
3. Also consider the additional functions on item category level and
the item-specific settings in the general sales and distribution
functions.

Murali
