Two different item categories in sales document

Hi Friends,
Can we have two different line items in the sale order by which one item is relevant for billing F2 and the second line item is relevant for pro forma invoice F5. And also, I want to use second line item as consignment item so that when customer uses that material we can send him a bill with reference to pro-forma invoice no.
Your prompt reply will be highly appreciated....
Thanks.

Hi Sharma,
Yes, You can use two different line items in the sale order by which one item is relevant for billing F2 and the second line item is relevant for pro forma invoice F5 for any specific customer and Material Combination.
All you need to do is,
1. Maintain Customer Material Info Record (CMIR) in VD51
2. Specify your Customer No, SO, DC and Material.
3. Double click on your material and Create a new USAGE(Tcode-0VVW) and assign it to USAGE field under Control Section.
4. Then Determine the Consignment item category in VOV4, using the above Specified USAGE field.
For example if you created New USAGE field as "DEMO", assign DEMO to USAGE field under Control Section and
Determine the Consignment item category KBN as follows:
Document type(OR) + Item Category Group (Norm) + USAGE (Demo) + Higher level item category(Blank) = Item Category (KBN)
Thanks and Regards,

Swap between two different item categories in sales orders for sub-contracting

Dear gurus,
my requirement is to have the ability to swap between two different item categories for sales orders for sub-contracting.
This should be controlled by a combination of the material and a value maintained the Usage field in the Customer Material Info Record (for example by entering a ‘V’). A combination of Sales Doc Type, Item Cat Group and Usage should result in the creation of a purchase requisition.
In the event that a process order is required instead of a purchase requisition (i.e. the product is to be manufactured in-house instead of sub-contracted) the user must have the ability to change the Item Category within the sales order to produce a process order.
The user would just change the item category within the sales order, and the system would automatically remove the purchase requisition assigned to the SO, and create a process order and assign it to the SO.
Can you suggest any possible solution?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Majlo,
In my system, I checked. First created sales order with third party line item and then changed item category to normal item category.
Till Purchase order not created, I can change Item category of my sales order line item.
In this case SAP inform by log and once save delete purchase requisition of that line item .
For this you need to assign another item category as an manual item category in SPRO Item category assignment.
After this user can manually change item category to other one manually, if PO do not exist.
Please let me know if your query is different.

Different pricing procedures for two different items in a sales order.

Hi ,
In a sales order I have two items , one is TAN item and other item is TAD (services).. Since the tax structure is different for above mentioned items, user wants to apply two different pricing procecdures for two items in a sales order.
Can any one suggest how to get this functionality.
Thanks,
Ashok S

Dear Ashok,
As Rithivika rightly mentioned that in one sales oder you can't get two pricing procedures.
Because pricing procedure determination will takes place based on these combination
Sales areaDocument pricing procedureCustomer pricing procedure-->Pricing procedure.
So If you want different pricing procedure either one of the combination should be different.
But you try this
You can maintain service related tax condition types also in the same procedure,but when you maintain condition record you can maintain material wise.
So when you create sales order system will pick the pricing based on the material(standard item or service item).
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

1 Invoice / 2 Line Items / Different Item Categories & diff exchgn rte

hi,
there are 2 line items in my invoice and both have different item categories. one item cat (ZFIX) have exchange rate setting in copy control "PricingExchRate type" as A and other (ZFLT) have "C". now exchange rate are maintained in OB08 and are determined correctly in my billing documnet. but whenever i post the billing document to FI, exchange rate for "Billing Date" is determined for both line items. however the expected result was that exchange rate for 1st line item should have been determined as per sales order date( as copied in billing documnet).
hope my queery is clear. any comments to resolve the issue?
Edited by: Robert on Mar 4, 2011 8:29 AM

I had a similar problem before. The FX rate for the FI document is determined based on the invoice posting date, whatever you select in the copycontrol. The copy control setting is only for the SD internal conversion of i.e. pricing condition currency into document currency.
The only choice in the Sap standard is to manipulate FI FX Rate my knowledge to set the Rate in the sales order (billing document tab in header or item, Field Exchange rate for FI postings).
Hope this helps to clear your issue.

How to swap between to sets of item categories in sales order

Hi,
We receive Idocs from a different system that creates sales order in the R/3 system. For some of these, we want to be able to use an alternative sourcing mode - basically switch between standard POs and 3rd Party POs. The orders has many items, and we find it impractical to manually update all items - also because the order might contain different materials with maybe 5-10 different item categories, that needs to be changed to 5-10 others. This will be very difficult for our business users, since we do not have a simple naming convention of item categories to ease this.
So we are looking for alternative ways, where we can change all items by changing on header level.
We have thought of these alternatives :
1. Change distribution channel. Requires all materials and customers to be set up in 2 DCs - not realistically.
2. Change sales order types using VOV8 alternatives. This seems not to be allowed for materials in BOMs and with E consumption. See other thread named "Can not change SO order type - disallowed by item settings" for more details.
3. What we we really need is changes on schedule line level, and I suppose we could have a logic in MV45AFZZ change this dependent on some user field. But I don't think this will work, as other settings controlled by requirement class etc. will be inconsistent.
Proposals for this are welcome - it should be a common issue.

Hi,
We ended up designing a solution where item category was swapped by shipping condition. For shipping condition 11, we simulated that a specific 'usage' was active. It required a few tricks to get the Source determination to run, and a further trick to avoid a re-pricing B to nuke the pricing conditions. This is still draft code, but it seems to work :

2 different item categories based on Plant

Hello,
I have a scenario where I need to determine 2 different item categories based on the Plant.
I will have the same material produced per 2 different Plants in SAP.
1 Plant is always producing the material using SAP x APO;
1 Plant will always be asking a Third party (Vendor) the stock material.
In this case I need to have 1 item category for the regular sales (Stock based on TAN item category);
and 1 item category for the third party process (Stock received from Vendor (TAB - ALE PO automatic created).
I know that I can have both in config, but one of them I could change manually during Sales Order creation.
However we want to automatic determine the item category according to the plant informed in the item.
Is there an User Exit that I could use to do it?
Thanks

Thank you for your reply.
I will try to use MV45AFZB probably reading my plants in a variable set in TVARVC table.
Best regards
Eli

How are GL Accounts assigned with item categories in Sales Order

Please advise;
- how and where GL accounts are assigned with item categories appearing in the sales order?
Points confirmed.
regardss

We have number of sales document types and item categories. The sales order numbers are also different for hardware and software categories, so is the sales organization, plant and company code.
Usually, the hardware orders contain line items for software but the item category used is for hardware and therefore, it gets posted to the incorrect (hardware) GL account. Is this happening due to MATERIAL TYPE/CODES.
We are using separate GL accounts for both.
Where and what controls could be developed to prevent this?
Please let me know if you need further information.

Changing the item categories of Sales order in web IC

Hi experts,
We are working on CRM 5.0 with Web IC
We have a scenario where we need to change the item categories of some of the items in sales order.
But in a standard sales order I cant see the item categories of line items in WebIC.
Now the issue are
1. How to make the item categories available in web ic?
2. Is there any standard config to do this or we have to go for development ?
3.Is it possible to change the itemcategories in Web IC?
Can any body suggest me with suitable solution
Points shall be rewarded for sure
Regards,
Madhu

Hi,
you dont change the item category at the header level. The item category will be changed at the item level and the code to do this is
lv_entity_items->set_property( EXPORTING iv_attr_name = 'ITM_TYPE' iv_value = lv_itemcat ).
here lv_entity_items is one of the entity in the collection for AdminI . lv_itemcat is the value you want your item category to be set to.
hope this helps.
Reward useful answers.

Unable to add a new line item to a sales document when hitting save

Dear All,
When ever the end user save the sales quotation document, a new line item has to add automatically with a default item with some quantity.
I am trying to solve this issue with user exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE in SAPMV45A. But it is not allow me to do so. Is there any solution?
Thanks in advance.

Write the proper code in USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE, it will solved.

Enable change logs for item level of Sales Document

Hi,
On transaction VA02, additional screen field (Booking Date) is added (& consequently 2 appends with date field in the tables VBAK & VBAP).
When this date is changed in the header, the corresponding dates are changed in the item level as well.
However, the change documents are created only for table VBAK (though item data is updated in VBAP also).
When the date is changed at the item level, the change logs are created for the corresponding field in table VBAP.
The data element has 'Change Document' checked.
How can I activate the change to be logged for the item level (VBAP), when the date is changed at header level (VBAK)?

Hi Nidhi,
Maybe set a breakpoint in include MV45AF0C_CHANGE_DOCUMENT_CREAT
Then check in UPDATE debug mode the value of upd_vbap and the contents of xvbap which are passed on to function VERKBELEG_WRITE_DOCUMENT .
This function creates the change documents based on the data changes.
I would have thought that since the date values are changed at item level as well when you only change it at the header, they should get a change document created automatically, since the dates must be in the XVBAP table (as their value is changed at the DB).
So I would compare the various internal tables for both scenarios (header change, item change) to determine their differences.
After this use one of the user-exits to populate the internal tables for the header scenario based on the values of the item scenario. I would feel this to be a last resort though, since something appears not to be working correctly (I think).
Hope this makes sense,
Robert

Thank you so much
Umed

Dear Umed,
what so ever we configure in IMG is reflected in sales order processing like which sales document type we are using and what will be the item category for that particular sale document type.
I would like to give you an example for better understanding. suppose you have created sales document type and maintained all the entries as per the requirement of business process and you also create the Item catgory for the same and maintained item category determinatio as well. Similarly you have created delivery type and delivery item category and determination for the same. But now the question arise how the data flow from one transaction to the other transaction e.g. from sales order to delivery, delivery to billing and so on.
therefore in sum up we can say that copying control is the life blood of SD process. I think you have understand the concept.

Controling Sales Document

Hai Experts,
Can u plz let me know in wat ways Sales document type, schedule line category and item category controls the sales documents. Its given tat these 3 wil control sales document but in wat way its helpful to control these documents? Plz give me some examples. Thanking you.
Regards,
J. SriramChakravarthy.
Edited by: sri ram on Mar 12, 2009 6:40 AM

Hi sri ram,
Sales document type, item type and item category
The sales document type, item type and item category define the way in which advertising sales are replicated and controlled in the system.
The sales document type is specified during sales document creation.
The item type and category are specified during document item creation. Active item types for sales document processing are defined in Customizing.
Document items of various item types or categories can be created in a sales document.
The item types are defined in the system.
Admissible item categories for each sales document type have been defined in Customizing.
Activity
Menu path
Assign item categories to sales document types
SAP Media --->Advertising Management --->Sales -
>Order --->Sales Document -
>Sales Document Item -
>Assign Item Category to Sales Document Type
If you assign the standard item and full and partial credit memo item categories to a sales document type, you can replicate associated business transactions in a single sales document by creating order and credit memo items in this document.
See also: Item Category
Create document flows
The sales document type, item category and copying variant control document flow.
To define document flow, specify the copying variants to be used to create follow-on documents and/or follow-on items for each sales document type and item category. Copying variants define the sales document type and item category in follow-on documents and/or follow-on items, such as those for credit memos or those used to convert offers to orders.
Create credit memo items
This function copies selected data from a template item within a sales document. You want to copy all schedule line data for a complaint into a new document item. The copying variant indicates that the item category for the new item is a credit memo.
Unlike a document item copy with reference to a document item, the system retains manual changes to the schedule line, such as manual surcharges or discounts, ad spec assignments or quantity changes for a document item copy with reference to a schedule line if you have defined the schedule line copying variant accordingly.

Assign partner determination procedure to Item Category/Sales document type

Hello All,
How can I assign a partner determination procedure to an item category or sales document type? That field is disabled in item category config step. Please suggest.
Thanks,
lavanya

HI Lavanya,
The partner determination will happen through a different way and not through item category definition.
The path would be
S&D->MAster Data->Bussiness partners->customers->Customer hierarchy->set partner determination for hirearchy categories.
In this you will have one option to define by item category.
Hope this helps.
