Hi friends,
Company's requirement is to Create new Item Category and respective settings for normal business process.
please let me know, what all the mandetory setting which i need to do for normal business process.
As i know , item category determination in VOV4.
please tell me, the main mandetory setting which should be maintained.
thanks in advance.
VARMA

Dear Ravi Varma,
Please copy the standard ITEM CATEGORY based on your scenario and then save in VOV6.
Assign the same for your document type in VOV4.
Another important thing you have to keep in mind is you have to include this NEW ITEM CATEGORY in the copy controls as well.
(in VTLA & VTFL)
Please check and revert back.
Thanks & Regards,

Reason for creating new item category

when should we create a new item category

HI premkumar
A rule of thumb in SAP is "Not to change the Standard Setting" Either it is Order document, item category,schedule line, pricing procedure, delivery type, billing type e.t.c.
Basically it depends on the BUSINESS REQUIREMENT,why we go for customization. 90% of the BR will not fit into SAP STANDARD setting. So, when u have to change any of the existing setting like creating a New sales order document for particular business only ( Foods business..) ( though we generally use TAN as standard item category ) we can derive a cusomtized one as per our needs.
BR needs may be:
1. New Partner Determination procedure
2. New Text determination procedure.
3. New pricing setup
4. New incomplete procedure.
there are a lot more to come. When your Business needs any change in the existing TAN setting, SAP gives u the flexibility of creating new Item category.
Also, if you start changing STANDARD setting ( TAN) as per your needs, SAP doesn't support it when u have some problems or any UPGRADE issue.
This is the real need of CUSTOMIZATION in any Business /CLIENT.
Hope this helps.

CRM Availability Check not working for certain Item Category

Hi there,
I have a situation where for certain order type/item category combinations, the availability check on the same material is not working.
The check is set up to happen in SAP ECC.
I have checked the config. under SPRO->CRM->Basic Functions->Availability Check->Availability Check using SAP ECC
as per many SDN posts on this, and everything looks fine.
The new item category, which was a copy of an existing one, works (i.e. gives availability) for certain order types, but not others.
If I create the same order directly in ECC, it works correctly every time.
I searched the code (from consultants who set it up originally) and can see nothing specific to the order type/ item category.
I also put a breakpoint on AVAILABILTY_CHECK function module in SAP ECC - it is not being hit, in the case where check is not successful.
Breakpoints in MV45AFZZ (Sales Order userexit) also not being hit, but they are hit for the Order/item category combination when it works successfully.
Any suggestions on where else this could be configured would be appreciated!
thanks,
David

Hi David,
One 'simple' reason for this could be that the copied item category does not have the
ATP Profile set up in the item category in the IMG. Make sure you have an ATP profile assigned in the area 'ATP Profile' in the item category.
Please see as well the SCN Wiki link:
Availability Check CRM-BTX-BF-ATP - CRM - SCN Wiki

Creation of New Item Category

Hi All
Can anyone give an example of when a new item category creation will be required in practical ?
Anil

Hi Anil,
It is always recommended to use standard item categories. Create new item categories if the functionality you require cannot be covered by the standard item categories. Following are the attributes and functions of a BOM item category.
o   Is a material number required?
o   Is the item to be used in inventory management on a quantity basis
o   Is the item a text item only, with no other functionality?
o   Is the item to be used as a variable-size item with the option of entering individual sizes ?
o   Is the item a document item?
     The document item category allows you to enter a document which you created using the document management system.
o   Is the item a class item?
     For configurable material BOMs, you can enter a class in which materials or documents are classified. When you assign characteristic values during BOM configuration, the class node is replaced by the object with the required characteristic values. In this way, the workload involved in maintaining BOMs with many variants is reduced, because you no longer have to enter all items individually and assign selection conditions to them.
o   Are sub-items supported?
o   Is the item a plant maintenance structure elment?
     If the item is a PM structure element, the system does not check
If the requirement is to obtain the functionality by shuffling the above combinations, only than go ahead. 99 out of 100 times, the standard categories are suffiecient.
Reward if cleared and close the thread.

New Item category Determination in delivery

Hi Experts ,
I want new item category to be determined in delivery i did all the customisation for Del Item category to be determined in IMG ,any suggestions in this .
Regards
VKS

Hi,
You have to define the new item categories for the deliveries in the IMG
path:
IMG-->LOGISTICS EXECUTION-->SHIPPING-->DELIVERIES-->DEFINE ITEM CATEGORIES
After defining the Item categories yo have to assing the item categories to the delivery documents in the IMG
Path:
IMG-->LE-->SHIPPING-->DELIVERIES-->DEFINE ITEM CATEGORY DETERMINATION IN DELIVERIES
here you have to assign the default item categories for the
DELIVERY DOCUMENT TYPE
ITEM CATEGORY GROUP
USAGE
HIGHER LEVEL ITEM CATEGORY
for the above combination assign the default item category and save
Now the item category will be atomatically determined in the transaciton of delivery creation once you create the delivery
Please check the above settings and revert

While making 103 mvt for PO error'Aceptance at vendor set for po Item'

Dear Sir,
While making 103 mvt for PO, we are getting error 'Acceptance at vendor set for PO item'
Rgs
Kumar

Hi
Check the PO delivery tab. Origin acceptance will be flagged. It means material is accepted at vendor's premises. You need to use movement type 107 which will take stock to valuated GR blocked stock.It means once you do 107 material is valuted in your books. Then 109 to bring to your stock. You should not do 103 and 105 if the origin acceptance is flaged in GR.

I am in the process creating a custom adhoc workflow. this is required for the approval of a supplier for new pdt. category. This shld be n-step workflow.
After completing the adhoc approval, it will go to a specific user for final approval. It shld have the functionality of adding approvers & reviewers to the approval process.
We are in the process of creating Screen & ITS template for the initial screen.How do I proceed with creation of the workflow?
Regards,
Sivagami.R

You'll have to raise request for Dummy Organization. It's Order for Organization so will not appear for user.
I am not sure the full flow/complete requirement of your.
APMU, you want approval while creating Organization into OIM.
This is not possible OOTb when you create ORg in OIM.
You'll create 1 dummy Org
1 Dummy RO "OFO".
Attach one Object Form with this RO.
Raise request for Dummy Org and Give the name of Org on the object form for which you want approval.
In the provisioning workflow, use OIM API to create Org into OIM.
Done !!!

Arrange Menu Blanked Out for New Items - Adobe Edge

Why is the Arrange Menu blanked out, it's very VERY frustrating when I want to simply adjust the layer of some text I created in Edge as it was thrown to the bottom layer which isn't very handy when I am trying to add it in as new content on the TOP layer.
what is the point to having an Arrange menu if it doesn't even work?
Is there a setting that I can change to enable layer alterations or am I missing something here?
EDIT
As a bit of extra information, I read that you need to edit the layer of items using CSS which if that is true leaves me in the SH## due to the fact that the software I am using creates Inline CSS and I honestly have no idea how to modify that. I'm using WYSIWYG Website Builder 8.5.
The other thing that is frustrating would be that I have only 2 options... create all my content inside of WWB 8.5 or build it all inside of Edge.
Unfortunately, if I want to add new items to my website, I would have to overwrite the old HTML when I export out of WWB which will erase all the content from inside of Edge... so the only choice I really have is to add content via Edge to ensure I don't lose all of my hard work setting up animations etc in the site.
Problem is, for this to work out, all content needs to be added in Edge, not just the fancy stuff as it seems to be layer locked... Really dissapointed if there is nothing Edge can do to enable layer modification... that will make it far less valuable to people such as myself who do not have the timeframe to learn how to modify inline css or any css for that matter. (way I see it is that if you have to get in and work with code, then this type of "designer friendly" software hasn't really performed it's role properly)
Sure this will shock the majority of purist web builders and professionals who love to work with code day in day out notebook++ is their friend, but why can't things be done differently, does the code have to look all neat and tidy so long as it works?
EDIT 2
To clarify, all elements in the file are built and added outside of EDGE except for the most recent text field. This text field was thrown somewhere in between several of the layers on the website and needs to be adjusted. Also, layers created inside of WWB need to be adjusted outside of the software if possible to avoid re-exporting and the consequential wiping of the Index.html page I am adding animations to.

Hi CX,
If I understand correctly, you're importing an existing HTML page into Animate and trying to arrange the layers? This isn't supported in Animate due to a lot of complications that can go on with your external document; you have to manually assign z-index via CSS to control this. We deliberately impose as little as possible on your existing markup since if starts being amended progromatically there's a huge potential for misintrepertation; for example, if you have a navigation menu on your page and Animate imposes heirarchy on another element, your nav might appear below the page content which is obviously undesirable.

No item exists at ... It may have been deleted or renamed by another user for new items, but older items work?

I created a webpart page and added an SPD listformwebpart in display mode for a particular list.
All day yerterday I called the page and passed it the ?ID= query string and it worked great. It still works great for the items I had created.
This morning I added a workflow where I email the URL to the page with the ID dynamically on it. Any items I added today give me the error:
No item exists at ... It may have been deleted or renamed by another user
All items from yesterday work fine on that page with the exact url... ????
I was demoing the solution and was completely at a loss to explain this.
I checked and there is no Item security. I can pull up the suspect items using the native list Display page. I show up as the creator and last modifier My workflow is NOT making any changes to the list .. only sending a url to my page.
Same URL with only the ID different..Some items work.. some don't.. Any explanation for this?
UPDATE: I CREATED A BRAND NEW PAGE WITH NO CODE. JUST THE LISTFORMWEBPART AND THE PROBLEM PERSIST.
============================
Thank You

Not sure if you've seen it already, but here's a step by step guide from Microsoft's help site on creating a custom form.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-designer-help/create-a-custom-list-form-HA010119111.aspx
The location of the custom form is really irrelevant. As I said, you don't apply security to the forms. They're applied to the list/library level or at the individual items.
Also, SharePoint 2007 doesn't have column/field level security. Even if you customize your form or use javascript to make certain fields not-editable, it doesn't necessarily mean that's secured. Someone experienced with SharePoint can easily get around it.
Depending on your user base or sensitivity of your data, making individual fields not-editable may not be a big deal.
Anyways, take a look at the following article from Laura Rogers. This is one way you can make the form so that only certain fileds are editable.
