Material and item category relationship
For a given material, how can I get item category and higher level item category.
I know mara stores item category group and t184 stores item category group and item category
Thanks.Think you are going wrong way.
Item Category and High Level Item Category are not assigned to Material, but they are assigned to Sales Document Type and Item Category Group. As you mentioned, you can get the details from table T184.
Table T184 gives the options on how the system has to react in various scenarios.
Combination of Sales Document Type in Sales Order, Item Category Group which is from Material Master and... result in the Item Category that is populated for the Item.

Invoice for BOM_Normal material(TAN item category) error
Hi Sap gurus,
We are facing one production issue.they are creating a SO/Delivery/billing with below line items:
1.Normal material
2.BOM
3 BOM components1
4.BOM components2
5.Normal material
6.Normal material
but while creating billing, the BOM components would be populate automatically by using user exit.
Now issue is while creating billing, its not showing last normal material, i.e. its looks like below
1.Normal material
2.BOM
3 BOM components1
4.BOM components2
5.Normal material
6. MISSING IN BILLING LEVEL
But in document flow the 6th material entry is available with out qty, amount & UOM.
please suggest me on above point, where I have to check?? (We have checked in copy controls but we are not finding any result here)
But This is a very peculiar case where the business scenario has not be identified and the system behavior is random. We are still
analyzing the root cause of the issue, why this happened only for certain invoices and working fine for other invoices with same 6th material.
if now we are creating billing with above (6th normal material) it's working fine.
But in PRD now we have to correct all wrongly populated billing documents and we have to found the issue why its happening.
Please guide me on above.
BR,
ShabsSir,
My SD consultant stating that there is no problem with copy controls/split func but as a abaper I have checked in all circumstances..
So its happening only for 5 orders & if we tried to create complete cycle in production SO-->Delry-->Billing it's created successfully.
But now how we can correct the old 5 invoices..
And one strange thing is in VBRP table the last material ENTRY is not showing but in flow VBFA the material entry is showing without qty, item no and UOM.
Request you to suggest me how to resolve the issue.
Thank you in advance.
Thanks,

Link material type and item category.
Hi,
Can you brief me on how following setting in SPRO works?
Plant maintenance - Maintenance and service processing - Maintenance and service order - General data - Define default values for componenet item category
When i checked, this setting is to link item category with the material type and item category is defined based on the material type and maintenance plant. But what is the relation in term of the order type i.e. whenever i create any order with a specifica order type, the default item category should get reflected on the componenets tab of the order?
Is it possible?
Can you guide me how to do this setting.
ThansksHi,
Yes it is posible to make all order types item category mark as stcok item "L" as default value. Very well u can set it at following menu path under PM&CS Node
Maintenance and Service Orders
Functions and Settings for Order Types
General Data
Define Default Values for Component Item Categories

Sales Order - Reasons for material Nr and item category being disabled
Hello,
In some of our sales orders items (without subsequent documents), SAP disables fields Material Nr and Item Category. Can you please help on the reasons for this? Please note that we do not use configurable materials.
Regards,
JoãHi,
The material number will always comes greyed out in standard SAP. You cannot change the material number. If you want to change it, you have to delete the line as a whole and then introduce a new line with new material.
For the item category field, it is either greyed out or available for editing based on the configuration done in the tcode VOV4. For the sales order type, item category group etc.....if you maintain only one item category as the default IC, then this field will be greyed out after populating the default I.C. If there are alternate I.Cs maintained here, then this field is available for editing. Please check this once. -
Difference between Material type and Item category
What is the difference between Material type and Item category?
We can differentiate different kind of materails according to material type then why do we have Item category which is also more or less on the same lines.
Both can be considered as a terminology in SAP to group similar kind of materials.
Please let me know the exact difference between the two?Dear Christino
We can list out so many differences.
When you create a material master record, the material type you choose determines:
- Whether the material is intended for a specific purpose, for example, as a configurable material or process material
- Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
- The number range from which the material number is taken
- Which screens appear and in what sequence
- Which departmental data you may enter
- What procurement type the material has; that is, whether it is manufactured in-house or procured externally, or both
Together with the plant, the material type determines the material's inventory management requirement; that is:
- Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record
- Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in financial accounting
In addition, the accounts affected by a material entering or leaving the warehouse depend on the material type.
-Most importantly, Users can be authorized to create materials of specific material types but not based on item category
- Item category will define whether the material should be valuated for stock or it should be considered as non-stock
- Pricing is carried out based on Item Category and not based on Material type

Intercompany transfer for material with item category Erla
Hi,
I have a typical requirement.
I am creating a value pack(finish good) with item category mainatined as ERLA(while mat master creation) which consistes of 2 items.
I have maintained a BOM for this value pack(finished material).
Since ERLA is maintained,I can explode BOM in Sales Order creation(correct me if I am wrong)
This is okay for sales cycle.
I have following requirement
I want to do a Intecompany stock transfer of this value pack(i.e. finish good) with doc type NB.
The problem in this is that it gives error while creating outbound delivery stating some entries missing in table (do not exactly remember)for NLCC/DOGN.. something like that.
If anyone has done this type of scenario earlier then request you to send me the configuration settings required to be done in terms of Item category/Delievry combination etc etc .
This is quite urgent for me.
If there is any different way to map this Intecompany Stock Transfer of Material (with Item category maintained as ERLA) then please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
manOOHi
You maintain "Item category group" NORM in the Sales org 2 tab, this is used for sales organisation and distribution channel for Outboumd delivery.
The "General Item category group" does not refer to the Sales organisation and distribution channel, this is used for Inbound delivery.
In can create the material master in MM01, specify the "Material type" and "Industry sector" .
For, Item category determination in VOV4, you need to assign like this as below,
Sales doc type + Item category group + usage + Item category of higher level item = Item category.
Item category determination for free item,
OR + NORM + FREE + TAN = TANN.
As beacuse you are giving the normal material as free, therefore you must give the indication to the system to use it as free material by specifying the usage as "FREE". -
Reqirement type and item category
dear friends,
can u please tell me the link between requirement type and item category?
i want to use the special stock for the delivery and as well as purchase requirement in case stock is not there...
i m getting the right combination.
plzz help....Hi Deepak,
This is strategy for Determining the Requirements Type
. First, an attempt is made to find a requirements type using the strategy group in the material master.
. If the strategy group has not been maintained, the system will determine it using the MRP group.
. If the MRP group has not been defined, the system uses the material type instead of the MRP group when accessing the corresponding control tables.
. If no requirements type is found here, the system assumes a special rule and attempts to find a requirements type with the aid of the item category and the MRP type.
. If this is not possible, a last attempt is made to find a requirements type with the item category only.
. If the last attempt fails, the system declares the transaction as not relevant for the availability check or transfer of requirements.

Vendor batch and batch field on the inbound delivery
hi GUrus,
i have looked through most of the threads where the topic of vendor batch and batch on the inbound delviery has comeup. I'm specifically looking at a scneario where i would want to pass the on the batch number provided by the vendor on the IDOC to batch field on the inbound delivery. The reason for this is , i can look at the batch field in the confirmations tab of the PO, in the purchase order histroy tab of the PO, and also MMBE tcode. the material is also batch managed turned on in hte material master. But the issue is that even though i put the batch provided by vendor in the CHARG field on the ASN IDOC, it is still getting populated in the vendor batch field in the inbound delivery.
any ideas?
Thanks
RaviHi,
Refer the note: 833668 - Creating batches in the inbound delivery using IDOC which explains the system design.

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)

A/c assignment category and item category fields purpose
what is the importance of account assignment category and item category fields in po(me21n).what is the impact of that fields.
Hi,
Account Assignment category is a vital field in purchasing document & has many control functions and helps in determining the object that will be charged in case of an ordered material which is procured for direct usage or consumption. By using the
account assignment category in the purchasing documents the cost of the material can be apportioned to a single Controlling object or it can be apportioned among various Controlling objects.
The account assignment category determines:
a.The nature of the account assignment
b.Which accounts are to be charged when goods receipt is posted
c.Which accounts are to be charged when the incoming invoice are posted
d.Which account assignment data you must provide
Item category is vital field in the purchasing documents & has many control functions and helps in determining whether an ordered material:
a.Requires a material number
b.Requires an account assignment
c.is to be placed in stock
d.Requires a goods receipt (GR) and/or an invoice receipt (IR)
In addition to the above it is also used for differentiating the different types of procurement processes and the types of stocks including special stocks available.

Item:000001.Order type ZBBK and Item category TAN not customized for
Hello all,
I got the following error message when trying to create an order. Please suggest.
Item:000001.IP type ZBBK and Item category TAN
not customized for
Thanks,In config, you have to have assignment of the document types to the item category groups.
In SPRO you can Assign Item Category Usage for a combination of -
1] Sales Document Type
2] Item Category Group and
3] High level Item Category etc.
The path in SPRO is Sales and Dist --> Sales --> Sales Documents --> Sales Document Item --> Assign Item Categories.
Just below "Define Item Category Usage".
Hope this helps.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.
