Item category not changeable in sales order

Hi
I have a material where the item category is not changeable in the sales order after you have pressed 'enter' after the material number. It is a bundle material number, with a BOM (structure scope 'A') - does this mean that the item category is greyed out for change?
It is causing a problem because to select the manual item category in item category assignment, you have to change it before you press enter (and when you do that it only gives you a full list of item categories rather than the ones you can select for the assignment table).
Jon

this is standard sap !
the reason is that if you change something that has relations with other object then problems can raise.
You cannot do anything for this but you can make a user exit at your own risk that 'opens' up the field:
the exit looks like this:
MV45AFZZ
FORM userexit_field_modification.
  CASE screen-group2.
    WHEN 'LOO'.
      IF screen-name = YourItemCategory AND xvbup-gbsta = ' '.
        screen-input = 1.
        MODIFY SCREEN.
      ENDIF.
  ENDCASE.
ENDFORM.                    "USEREXIT_FIELD_MODIFICATION

  • ITem category  error while creating sales order through

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a sales order through Bapi  and in between im getting the below error.
    ' Item category TAM is not defined for non material items'.
    Can anybody pls provide the solution for this.
    Thanks

    speak to your SD functional person.  The Error is pretty self explanatory; SAP is telling you that the item category for that order item is not permitted by your SD configuration.

  • Item should not duplicate in sales order form in line tab ..

    Hi All,
    Not very sure this is the right forum for this if not please tell me the correct forum to post this.
    We have a requirement(11.5.9) which we have to achieve it using custom.pll, as I am very much new to use it need help on this.
    In Sales Order form once we enter in Lines Information TAB,
    For example we will enter Item 'ABCD' at Line 1.1 then again at Line 2.1 if I try to enter the same item 'ABCD' it should pop up a message saying "Item Already Entered" once we press Tab on Ordered Item Field.
    If we enter a different Item it should take as usual.
    I will appreciate if some body posts the code for the same which we can do it using CUSTOM.pll
    Thanks in Advance
    Devender

    If you are in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger, you cannot navigate back through the list of already entered records (especially if record you are in is not complete). It does delay the validation, but duplicate checks are typically done by querying the database on both WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM and PRE-INSERT/PRE-UPDATE triggers. This means when entering a new Sales Order, you won't be warned that Line 2 has the same item as Line 1 until you save, but there are no navigation required to avoid issues such as trying to leave the current record before it is valid.

  • Item text not populating in sales order

    Hi All,
                 I have a scenario where in we get the sales order created through a inbound 850 idoc .
    The trading partner sends the sales order information which gets through GENTRAN and gets posted as inbound idoc in SAP .
    The problem here is that ,there are segments with values for item text in the idoc ,but  the item text is not getting carried over to  the sales order which is getting created because of this idoc.
    There is no problem with the header text and it is present both at the idoc as well as the sales order level.
    I have checked  the configuration for text determination and everything looks fine .
    Please let me know has anyone come across a scenario like this .This is important as our EDI is getting failed when an outbound 810 is sent from SAP for the simple reason that there is no item text .
    Thanks
    Sridhar

    Hi,
    You can try the following;
    1) Try to run the program RVTEXTE in SE38 or SA38. Enter text object as VBBP, and X* as text name.
    Then in the function enter the value A and test run.
    If you find any values only with X values like XXXXXXXX, then go back and re-execute the program to delete the entry with the  selection criteria X in the function. This program is used to delete any unwanted text that is sticking in the text tables. If this does not solve, then
    2) You can post this in the ABAP forum to get some fast response from the people who can come across the situation. If found no response,
    3) Check the OSS notes, if no information available, then
    4) Put a service note to SAP.

  • Item configuration not possible in Sales Order

    Dear friends,
    Our requirement is as follows:
    I have created a configuration material and assigned MTS strategy (10) in MRP3 view.
    As I am carrying out cost estimate run and SAP does not allow to calculate std cost for config material, I assigned same material in MRP3 view as variant. This allows std cost estimate run.
    Now while creating sales order, system is showing configuration screen in display mode.I am not able to input characteristics in Sales order.
    Is there a way out??
    I have changed the requirement class relevant to strategy 10 and put configuration allowed tick.
    Additional Information:
    1. If I don't assign the material in MRP3 view, sals order config is allowed. But then I could not run the cost estimate.
    2. If I assign account assignment category M or E in requirement class, sales order configuration is possible. But then sales order becomes MTO, which is not accepted.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Avinash

    usuaully, config material, business follows MTO strategy,
    Good Question. Let me explain why MTS with configuration.
    We always try to produce high quality product - Char Fe content should be 90%. Because this product will always have higher demand and higher price.
    But as ours is a process industry we end up producing FE content 80 to 90 % (about 40 % of our material is between 80 to 85 %Fe content). FG is stored in batches according to Fe content.
    Now I take orders from customers for the low Fe content produced with reduced rate. The negotiated Fe content I want sales team to put in Sales order configuration. That is the only reason I want the chars editable in SO.
    Even customer asked for low Fe content, I can supply high Fe content and take additional amount according to contract. This is how the industry works. Basically customers are putting orders for low FE, as high Fe material is not available in the market.
    As I will always try to produce high quality product, the scenario can not be MTO. But I want to mention customer demanded Fe content in Sales order so that I can supply him right batch from yard.

  • Tax classification screen for item level not appearing in sale order under Billing Doc tab

    Hi Expert
    while creating sale order Tax classification screen is not appearing for item level under Billing document tab.
    Tax classification for customer and Material has already maintained. Tax classification screen is not appearing for USER but same time from our USER ID we can able to see that screen.
    please help in above issue. is this related to Authorization issue or other thing need to check.
    Regards
    Pash@SD

    Hi,
    As per standard in Sales Order Document you will be able to see the Tax Classification fields in Billing Tab at Header level (for Customer Tax Classification) and at Item level for (Material tax Classification). The values from Customer M<aster is not populated at Header level as per standard but you can populate the value by using the Exit. Material tax classification populated from material master as you can see that at item level.
    If for one User you are able to see and for other you are not able to see, kindly check first whether both are using same customer and material, and if yes, then check the User Exit.
    Thanks and regards,

  • Missing item category & material description in sales order screen

    Hi all,
    We have upgraded SAP from 4.6C to ECC 6.0 version. In the sales order screen (create, change & display mode) the item category & the material description cannot be seen at the item level in the ECC 6.0 version. The same appears in the 4.6C version. I have done the following checks:-
    1. There are no screen variants/ transaction variants/layout settings in both the versions
    2. The config settings for item category are intact in both the versions.
    3. In the item detail view i am able to see the item category.
    4. There is no change in the functionalty as i am able to save the order  & complete the Sales cycle upto billing in the ECC 6.0 version
    Any ideas as to what could be the problem & how to fix it.  Pl suggest as it needs to be fixed urgently.
    Regards,
    Ramesh Iyer

    Hi,

    Hello Harpreet,
    How Item Category is determine in sales doccument.
    As per standard SAP, the item category determination take place as per the following business rules:
    Sales Order Type (OR) + Item Category Group (NORM) + Usage + Higher Item Cat  = Default, Manual

    which (AFN Or TAN) item category will display in sales order doccument
    After setting up the following values, please ensure to do the setting for item category in t-code VOV4.
    Define a Item category
    Define Item Category Group
    Define default value of item category group for Material Type and assignment of Item cat group in Material master record.
    Define item Usage
    Assign Item category in vov4.

    Please note that the Sales Document type plays an important role in determination of item Category.

  • Purchase Requisition number not changing when sales order item is rejected

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement to change the sales order status to 'TECO' when ever some reason for rejection is selected in the status tab at the item level.The status should change from 'TECO' when i remove the reason for rejection.
    The status change is happening correctly.I have achieved it using user exit.
    CASE 1 : Initially, when a new item is added in the Sales order the purchase requisition number appears in the schedule lines tab of the item level. This is as expected.
    CASE 2 :When the same item is blocked (by entering a reason for rejection in status tab of VA02 ) then the purchase requisition number is not present in the schedule lines tab.This is as expected.
    But i face the following issue.
    CASE3 : Again if the blocked item is unblocked (By removing the reason for rejection in status tab of VA02 ) then the purchase requisition number does not appear again in the schedule lines tab.The purchase requisition number is expected to appear again.
    This happens in case of DROP SHIPMENT scenario. I understand that in case of dropshipment scenario the purchase requisition number is triggered by item category and schedule lines only.
    I tried to make the changes(to change the status ) in user exits 'MV45AFZZ' and also 'MV45AFZB'.But i face the issue in both the exits.Please let me know if there are any means to solve this issue(as mentioned in case 3).
    Regards,
    S.Suba

    Many thanks for your answer. It help me to solve the issue.
    So applying note 738171, with transaction OVB5 (or VOFM, requirements->subsequent functions->Purch.requisitions) we create one new requirement, ie RV07A900, and then we apply the rule that if we have delivery or billing block, that is, VBAK-LIFSK or VBAK-FAKSK not empty, then we set an error with a code similar to this:
                da_sy-msgid = 'Z1'.    (message class)
                da_sy-msgno = '001'.  (message number)
                error_exception = true.
    and then the PR is not created.

  • Price is not changing in sales order in line item

    dear all.,
    price is not changing in sales order on line item,error comes "CHECK ORDER STRUCTURE.
    Regards,
    Praveen

    Dear
    You can go into VA03 --> Menu --> Environment --> Partner --> display credit account (if the data is maintained, than the system springs into FD33). Another way is to check if the sales order type is assigned to credit management in the transaction OVAK (should be D for aut. credit management).
    Did you enter the pricing date , prcing condition and press enter , so  that it should pick the correct price?
    Check this and come back

  • Billing milestones note billed by Sales Order & Item

    Hi
    I need to produce a list of all outstanding billing milestones and the value, which I can of course do via CN53N. However the list does not include the sales order number and the line item in the sales order, and I need both of these. Is there a list I can run that achieves this, or a list of sales order number, item number, and the billing milestone on that line?
    Or tables I can use to extract this in SE16? I can then cross the data with the detail in CN53N.
    Much appreciated
    Wendy

    This is a one of request for information, so would prefer not to link any tables.
    Is there a unique field in each which I could use to cross reference?

  • Item catagory field display in sales order lin item

    Hi experts,
    I would like to have your view points to gray out item catagory field at sales order item level.
    In our scenario, company has outsourced sales order creation to third party vendor. Also we have restricted sales order creation for these user's via role creation for certain document types.
    Even after these settings, now they have access to item catagory field to modify. We want to gray out this field so that they will not be able to update it to another item catagoroy.
    Thanks in adavance for your reply.
    Regards,
    Prabhaharan

    I have a suggestion, which can act as a work around through configuration. Maintain only one default Item category & do not maintain any alternative item category, which can be changed manually. this will serve the purpose of not changing the Item Category & even if user tries to change, it will not accept any other item category.
    Menupath: SPRO --> Sales and Distribution --> Sales --> Sales Documents --> Sales Document Item --> Assign Item Categories

  • Delivery proposal not possiblre in sales order atp check screen

    Hi Gurus,
    The system is giving a messsage saying delivery proposal not possible in sales order atp screen and i'm able to save teh sales order but it doesnot show up in MD04. I want the sales orrder to show up in MD04.
    PLesae help
    Thanks
    Anusha

    Hi,
    Now you have to provide additional information about your scenario;
    1) Is it a new material created that gives this problem?
    2) Did you create any new MRP type or schedule line category?
    3) When you say some materials-sales order is not seen in MD04 and some seen in MD04. Is there any any difference between the materials like in types, MRP views etc?
    From SPRO side,
    You also need to check the transfer of requirement settings in t.code OVZ1 for what requirement type assigned  to your MRP type and item category. Also check the properties  of the  requirement type  in t.code OVZH what req.class is assigned to the  req.type.
    Check the property of the  req.class in t.code OVZG (aval.check and TOR must be checked  at req. class level)
    You may also need to check in t.code OPSS on the strategy (which is assigned in the material master MRP view3) on whether TOR and availability check has been activated  or not.
    If all are OK, then run the report which is mentioned in the earlier response.
    Regards

  • Letter of Credit value is not updated against Sales Order

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    I have created LC in VX11N. When I am assigning the LC in the item level while creating the sale order, in the LC master, the open value is still remaining the same. It is not getting adjusted against the sale order value.
    For Ex: Against Rs. 1 lakh of LC of the Customer, we create a Sale Order of Total Value Rs.80,000/-. Then the remaining balance of Rs.20,000/- is not getting upadted in the Open Value field in the LC Master.
    Also, in the sale order LC screen part, the tab Ret. beside pmt. guarantee form is remaining at 0%. It is not getting edited.
    Plz suggest is this a configuration issue or SAP Standard doesn't support LC fully.
    Regards
    Subrat

    Hi SAP Gurus, I am also facing the same problem of open value of Letter of crdit not getting updated. Kindly solve this. It is very urgent.
