In this IMG activity you determine the item categories to be used as a system proposal when you are processing a document. You determine them per value contract type and item category group. You can also determine which item categories can be manually entered as alternatives to the system proposal.
For example, if you enter a value contract with item category group VCIT, the system determines the permitted item category from the categories assigned to group VCIT, used for value contracts.
The proposal made by the system depends on the following criteria:
- Sales document type
- Item category group
- Item category of higher-level item
- Use of item category
Value contract settings
In the standard system, value contracts have item category group VCIT. Assigning item category groups to value contract and contract releases is not very different to that for other types of sales documents.
Check the following when making assignments for value contracts:
If you only enter one target value when you create a value contract, the system needs the item category use to determine the item category group. Therefore, you will also need to make an assignment with item category usage for the value contract types. Item category usage VCTR has been defined for this in the standard system.
Activities
To define how item categories are defined follow the steps below:
- Choose the sales document type to which you will assign item categories.
- Choose an item category group.
- Specify all permitted item categories for the combination of sales document type and item category group.
If you want the material to be proposed when entering the target value, product proposal module, or product hierarchy, then you will have to specify the appropriate item usage - VCTR.
If you are working with a sub-item, enter the item type of the higher- level item.
If you are working with an item category that should be proposed in a sales document, flag the combination of item category, item category group and sales document type as the proposal value. - If necessary, you can also enter item categories with which the user can manually overwrite the system proposal when processing documents. A maximum of three alternatives may be entered.
