Requirement type as per sales order type

[former_member370893]

Hi SAP SD gurus,

I want default requirement types as per sales document types. I learnt that material requirement types in sales order based on strategy group maintained in the material master. But I want different requirement types in difference sales order types for same material.

Material 1234 used in the sales order - order type ZSD and contract -order type ZCO.I want requirement type Z1 in ZSD order type and Z2 in ZCO order type.

Material	Requirement type	order type
1234	Z1	ZSD
1234	Z2	ZCO

I can change requirement type manually in the sales order but I want to get default requirement type while sales document creation.

Hi

There are two ways to determine requirement type. One is with MRP Type and Item Category and the other one is through the material master strategy.

In material master strategy the system first looks for

1. Strategy Group then

2. MRP Group

3. Material Type

4. Item Category and MRP Type

5. Item category alone

6. when nothing is found the system does not consider the transaction relevant for TOR or AC.

The above 2 are maintained in the T-Code OVZI. The column Q there, is of relevance.

Udaya is using the MM strategy.

Hello Uday,

It's a simple thing you can takeRequirement type as per Sales Document type.

Basically requirement type is determine through Item category + MRP type. MRP type pick from Material master record and Item category is picked from Item category determination.

Sales Doc type     item catg     Req type

ZSD                        Z1Z1          Z1

ZCO                         Z2Z2          Z2.

even though with in a same sale document type you can picked two Requirement type for same sales document using through Usage while item category determination.

sales Doc          Item cat grp          usage     H levIt cat     item category

ZCO                    NORM               XXXX                         Z1Z1

ZCO                    NORM               YYYY                         Z2Z2

further for different item category you can determine different Requirement type

Thank you Prashant for reply.

We use MRP group in the material master.Strategy group assigned to the MRP group and requirement type determined by strategy group.  I think MRP group has preference over MRP type and iitem category. Let me know if my understanding is incorrect.

Set 1 for the relevant item category in below config path

Sales and distribution->Basic functions->Availability check and transfer of requirements->transfer of requirements->Determination of Req types using transaction

Hi Mrinal,

we are maintaining MRP group in the material master which has strategy group assigned to it. Currently strategy group determines the requirement type.

As you mentioned requirement type determination based on Item category will over write existing requirement type determination based on strategy group. Please explain.

Thanks,

Uday
