Account assignment by Item category

[Former Member]

Hello Experts!

Is it possible to assign all sales order items with item category TANN (free of charge) to a separate G/L account and profit center? The intention is to separate these postings from normal sold items so that it does not affect the margins.

I did google before posting here and understood (from old archives) this requires enhancement. But just wanted to check if the circumstances have changed in S4HANA.

Thanks,

Mathy

Option-1

Create a new Account Assignment Category for material, include this in VKOA settings with the required G/L Account. As and when billing document is generated, users can change manually the AAG and save so that system would take care of FI postings.

Option-2

If the scenario is a regular one, then, include the item category in VKOA, set the required G/L Account so that the process can be automated.
