item category

[former_member624882]

for main and sub item example

main item TAN and sub item TANN i am trying both item are return.

i am maintain item category in vov4 as RE+NORM+BLANK+BLANK= REN and

RE+NORM+BLANK+REN=RENN

in copy control F2 to RE maintain item proposal is TAN=REN AND TANN=RENN and for copy requirment as 303 copy all item

when i am creating return document in va01 reference from billing document the system pick for main item REN and also pick up for sub item REN

if i am maintain in vov4 RE+NORM+BLANK+BLANK=default REN and manual RENN then system pickup RENN for sub item

my question is that in vov4

RE+NORM+BLANK+REN =RENN is already maintain so why system not pick up this directly why i am maintain in vov4 in manual as RENN

give solution for that if any one know

And also any one explain what is higher level item category and its uses

Please study item category determination & copy control, this will clear your query.

Hi Umesh,

Please maintain VOV4 as

RE+NORM+FREE+REN=RENN.

For subitem, you need to maintain "usage".

Higher level item is used to identify the item for which sub item is determined.

yes i agree to your answer its run i know but dont change in system or item category usage in vov4 you see one entry maintain RE+NORM+BLANK+REN=RENN

so my question is if my main item category is REN and main item is higher level item so system why not pick this condition why i maintain in vov4 in

RE+NORM+BLANK+BLANK= REN and in the manual item category as RENN

if i am maintain this my ans true but in return order show both item category option REN AND RENN for main item

why system not pick up for main item as a REN and for sub item as RENN directly because in copy control F2 TO RE item proposal is there REN fot TAN and RENN for TANN

[praveen_tanwar]

For your information TANN will be free all the time whenever determined by system or entered manually.

Did you try requirement routine 303 in copy control?

Your issue should be resolved after maintaining copy control.settings.

yes i know TANN will free always but you not understand my question exactly

if customer return material with free of cost material meanTAN return and also TANN return when i am creating return RE with reference F2 billing the main item will detemine the category REN but sub item not determine RENN

in vov4 the condtion is maintain as a RE+NORM+BLANK+REN is maintain already so why system not pick up this directly

when in vov4 will maintain RE+NORM+BLANK+BLANK=default is REN and in manual RENN then system take automatically RENN for TANN

Hi Umesh,

Please check the "copying requirement" at item level (TANN). Here you need to have requirement 303 which will copy reference of TANN in target document.

Regarding your question what is the use of RE+NORM+BLANK+REN=RENN -<< It is for manual enterence of TANN at original sales order.

Let me explain it with an example.

You created a sales order with item category TAN for line item 10 and enter item 20 with item category TANN, and higher level item is 10.

Create billing document.

Now check copy control for F2 to RE for TANN and maintain copying requirement as 303. If your VOV4 is maintained RE+NORM+BLANK+REN=RENN and you are copying billing document to return document then system will determine REN for line item 10 and RENN for line item 20.

If you do not enter item category TANN and free goods are determined using condition technique then you have to maintain copying requirement 303 and VOV4 as RE+NORM+FREE+REN=RENN.

Hope this will help you to execute your scenario and clarify your doubt.

yes i know but for TANN material is not free for all time its used only one time free hence item usage not maintain for this item
