Manual item category gets overridden by default item category

When I enter a manual item category for a material in a sales order, it gets overwritten by the default item category maintained in VOV4 (maintained for the order type and item category group. This is in ECC6. It is working in 4.7 though. How do we permit the manuaul item category to be entered and not get overwritten by default item category?

Hi,
You have not mentioned in VOV4, manual item category has been maintained or not. Can you check the values are maintained in those column?
Also in the debug mode, you can check whether any user exit is restricting this.

Shopping cart creation category dropdown selecting the most used category

Hi SRM gurus,
While creating a shopping cart one of our most used category gets selected by default before we start doing anything.
Everytime we have to change the category.
Is there a way that will become blank and we can select from the dropdown or the find list.
Kindly suggest.
We are using SRM component version 4.0, SRM server 5.0, our patch level 0008.
Thx. & reg.,
Sridhar.

Hi
Yes.. This was happening with us when we used SRM 4.0 version.
We have used an BADI Implementation to resolve this issue.
The BADI name is BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT 
For Product category -> Product category (attr. WGR, PRCAT) GET_CATEGORY Method, you need to go ahead.
Read the documenation of this BADI and you will get the problem resolved after implementing the same.
Here is the documentation
BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT
Short Text
Restrict the Display in Input Helps and Search Helps
You can use the Business Add-In (BAdI) BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT to restrict (or augment) the list of values and favorites that are output in the input and search helps. You can only process data elements for which input helps exist on HTML templates. The following three BAdIs are also available:
BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY
Use this BAdI if you do not just want to restrict the favorites and values list but also want to select this yourself.
BBP_F4_MEM_UPDATE
BBP_F4_SAVE_DB
The following three modules are used to process the values per data element:
BBP_GET_<data element>_F4
Supplies a list of all values and user-specific favorites. You can influence how this module works using BAdI BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY and BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT.
BBP_UPD_<data element>_FAV
Updates the favorites in internal function group storage. You can influence how this module works using BAdI BBP_F4_MEM_UPDATE.
BBP_SET_<data element>_FAV
Writes the current favorites to the database. You can influence how this module behaves using BAdI BBP_F4_SAV_DB.
Use
Only implement this BAdI and only program the appropriate method if you want to restrict or augment the value set of standard selection.
If you determine favorites using a BAdI, the standard modules do not process the favorites further. Warning: If, deviating from standard selection, you determine the list of favorites yourself using a BAdI, you have to temporarily store the favorites in the methods of the BAdIs and carry out final saving to the database yourself.
Standard settings
If data is added via the methods, no check of this data occurs. The check has to occur in the methods themselves.
The interfaces of the methods of the BAdI are (almost) always the same:
IV_LANGUAGE
Language for determination of the texts
IV_USER
User for which the values are requested
ET_<data element>_LIST
The list of valid values changed by you
EV_X_FAV_PROCESSED
Use "X" to stipulate that you have filled the favorites list. Only present if favorites table exists for relevant data element.
ET_<data element>_FAVOURITES
Changed favorites list for user IV_USER. Only exists if favorites table exists for relevant data element.
The methods have to fill the structures of the transfer tables completely. Incompletely filled structures can cause followup errors and unforseen consequences.
Activities
Reading of value lists and favorites using function module BBP_GET_<data element>_F4 occurs as follows:
1. First the BAdI BBP_F4_READ_ON_ENTRY is called. It is possible to fill the input list (and favorites) with default values.
a) In the case of default values, exactly these values are returned to the initiator. No further processing or check occurs and the module is exited.
b) If no default values exist, the standard selection is carried out.
2. Before the values are transferred externally you can restrict or augment the number of hits using the BAdI BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT. You can therefore delete entries from or add entries to the input list or favorites list.
3. BAdI BBP_F4_READ_ON_EXIT provides an individual method for each data element for which an input help and/or favorites table exists. These are listed below.
If you use this method, you need to indicate processing using the parameter EV_X_LIST_PROCESSED or EV_X_FAV_PROCESSED. Otherwise the selection is lost.

Defaulting Item category in Equp BOM

Dear Experts,
I have a problem at the time of creating Equipment BOM, i am mentioning all the details in Header data and while entering the material numbers, it is asking to enter the item category.
In our scenario item category for all engg materials is L only. I want to default that field with L. I searched in IMG, but could not get it.
Anybody can guide me to solve this problem??
Thanks and Regards,
B. Praveen

hi
i think you can make using IMG settings under bill of material ,or use T code OICA and maintain Make User-Specific Settings
You can specify the following default values:
item increment
item category for the "New Materials Items" screen
item category for the "New Document Items" screen
item category for the "New Class Item" screen
material provision indicator
PM assembly (maintenance BOMs)
dialog print options (BOM evaluations)
Recommendation
You should maintain the following values:
item category for the "New Material Items" screen
item category for the "New Document Items" screen
You can define default values which are valid for all users by making entries for a user 'DUMMY'

Default Item category in PO

I have made a new document type for Sub contracting incase of PO creation.
How can I make the Item category L as a default value for that Documenet type, i.e As soon as I choose the document type as Sub- contracting in PO, the item category should have the value as L.

Hi,
First of all, there is not any such configuration setting in SAP which enables you to default automatically the item category ''L" when you select document type. Of course, you can restrict only item category "L" via configuration of your related PO document type (via IMG ---> Material Management ---> Purchasing ---> Purchase Order ---> Define Document Type). The only setting that you can be able to set a default item category "L" is throgh definition of special procurement key (via Transaction OMD9). Yet, this setting is a plant-specific which I don't really know whether it can meet your business requirements. Having said that you can still find some workaround solution which is completely subject to your purchase-to-order process. To be more specific, you should look into if -
1) The material requirement is always coming from purchase requisition;
2) If this is the case, then how was your PR generated? Manually? or via MRP run? or directly from work order? etc...

How to Use Default Item Category in a Shared Instance

Hi Gurus,
Hope you all are doing well.
We have very critical issue. Infact we are implementing Oracle 12.1.3 for a Customer who is using a shared instance with another country. Infact the other country has already set Default Item Category Set, Now we also want ours.
How to Achieve the same, Please let me know.
We are also defining PO Approval Group Item Category range wise but there our category is not reflecting.
Please suggest me how to go about this.
Regards,
Aditya

Hi Mahendra,
Shared instance means our customer has one single Business in Differennt Countries.
So they have already implemented for Indonesia Business and they have their own Ledger, OU and Inv Orgs etc.
Now we are implementing for India Business. So Default Category has been set by Indonesia team already.
But according to standard functionality of Oracle Default Category Set only reflect everywhere.
So the issue is we want to also use our category so that it will reflect while Creating POs, In Approval Group and in other place.
How to achieve the same ?
I hope this will give you the clarity.
Regards,
AdityaFor one functional area we can have only one default category set
you need to define different categories in the flexfield value set...ex PO Item Category
so after defining them..you should be able to see them in item categories in purchasing approval groups
Also check if any values are been defaulted from the value set of the segment..
Like say..if value set has been set to dependent..with some default value...in that case you need to attach differnet value set to it..with new values..

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.

Line item is getting Switched in OBD, created with ref to PO

I have created a PO# 4500189441.
In that PO there are two line items as below:
Line item# 10              C792X1CG                         280
Line item# 20              X792X1MG                         160
But when we create an OBD with ref to this PO in VL10D, line item are getting switched as below:
In OBD# 89490798,
Line item# 10
X792X1MG
160
Line item# 20
C792X1CG
280
Can you please let us know the reason behind it or is there any configuration for this?
Thanks & Regards,
Tanmay Mondal
SAP SD Consultant

Hi Tanmay,
First Check the Delivery type configuration in the Logistic Execution ---Delivery Type IMG path
Your Delivery type should have Item Requirement as '202' and check the Default Order type assigned to it.
Next go to the Specify Copy Control for Deliveries-----In that select the copy control from the Default sales doc. type which is assigned to the delivery type and the Delivery type which you are Using
Select and in the Item Data click on the delivery item category which is assigned to the delivery type.
In the details of the selection check the Item Data in the Data Transfer Block.
The routine assigned to it should be '202'
This will Solve your Issue.

Header data not getting updated in line item level

Hi,
We are trying to update Pricing date at header level but it is not gettting copied to item level.
getting an message "The header business data does not apply to item xxxx"
i have checked the item category and "business item" field is checked. and for the same sales order previously we were able to change the pricing date at header level and it got applied to item level but this time is is not getting applied.
kindly suggest.

If there are multiple line items which are having different data; in your case, Pricing Date, then in that case, when you try to change at header level, system will pop up this message.
You can also have a look at the following note:-

Changing the default item in SPRO

after navigating to the following path:
SPRO>Financial accounting(NEW)>General Ledger Accounting(new)>Periodic processing>Document-->Define Financial Statement Versions.
Now, right click "Define Financial Statement Versions" and select 'Display Technical Information'.
Now, select 'Maint.Objects' tab and double click any one row in the 'Assigned Objects'.
Here it will show the view details.
Here in the 'Object Attributes' tab the Transport item should have 'Manual transport' as the default item instead of 'Automatic transport'.
How can i change this default to 'Manual transport' ?

Hi ,
I doubt you can change the attributes .

Get previous items unique value in new add item form

Hi
I have on list having items related to multiple locations.
Every location is related to one user.
When user logs in it filters the list with that users location.
Now when user click on add new item I want to get the data related to his location using item event listener.
But in new item form there is no way to get the location of that user in event listener as its new item.
So I passed the qury string parameter form list and changed the add item form link and form to get the query string paramter as default value in Add new Item form.
But again when user clicks on save button it redirects to original url without paramter.
How to redirect user to url with parameter on click on Save/Cancel.
Is there any other way to get the previous item unique value in add new item from before executing the event listener?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to redirect user to url with parameter on click on Save/Cancel.
You need to modify the onclick event need to as below:
javascript: {{ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__redirect={{Home.aspx?Participant={@Participant}&@Activity={@Activity}}}')}}
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

In addition, you can creating an intermediate page which just finds the filed value with a DVWP and then redirect to RedirectURL with the filed value on the Query String.
For more information, you can refer to:
Redirect to Another Page from NewForm.aspx with the New Item’s ID

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-

Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.

Debit Items not getting picked while making payment with F110

HI,
When making payment with F110, items with Debit balance is not getting picked.
Example:
Payment method is assigned in the Maser data.
For a particular vendor one item has a credit balance- posting key 31.
We have posted another JV with F-02 and debited that vendor with Posting key 21. (Payment Method is not entered in the line item)
When we run F110 the credit balance is picked and debit balance is being shown in exception list.
When we got to FB02 and insert payment method in debit line item and then again run the F110 then system pickes all line items and pays the net amount.
The question is why system is not considering Payment Method from Master Data in debit line item, while in credit line item it is picking payment method from the master data.
Do I need to do any setting for it so that it should automatically take payment method from master data even in case of Debit line items.
Regards
Sanjay

Hi All,
Thanks for your quick replies.
But it does not solve my problem.
When I am not assigning any payment method to either Debit or credit line items, system picks (payment method from Master data) for only credit line items and ignores debit line items.
But the problem is that when I assign payment method to debit line item (which is similar to what has been assigned to vendor Master Data) system groups both debit and credit line items and makes payment of only net amount.
My question was why system considered the debit line item for making payment if I manually enter payment method in the line item, if system has been designed only for out going payment. In my opinion It should have reacted similarly irrespective of whether payment method entered in the line item or not.
Regards
Sanjay

Supplier Note gets copied from Catalog Item to Non-Catalog Item

Hi All,
The basic issue is that when we create a mixed shopping cart, cart with Catalog and Non-Catalog Items (Made using Describe Requirement link), the Supplier Note (in the Documents and Attachments part ) from the Catalog Item gets copied to the Non-Catalog Item directly when we create the Non-Catalog Item.
We face the issue only when the first Item is a Catalog Item. ...
There are no custom developments for the Supplier Note and we do not modify it directly in any other way. Any Ideas .. ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Sagar Ogale

Hi Bharath,
The issue is that for the Non-catalog ( Item created using Describe Requirement ) in SRM 5.0, the supplier note field is getting populated by default. This is the issue.
The Supplier's Note should remain blank. But, its not... This is the issue. Do you have any ideas what may be causing the issue..?
Thanks and Best Regards,
