How to make a Material not relevant for RAR

[pagarwal997]

Hello - we have a requirement to make specific materials not-relevant for RAR due to business reasons. Their e2e cycle is the same as other similar materials which are relevant for RAR. According to our team's research so far, the only way to impact RAR relevance is by Item Category. So we would have to create multiple item categories for each flow (1 relevant for RAR and the other is not) and then create different item category groups, which would determine the desired item category. This approach of configuring multiple item categories just for RAR relevance seems excessive work to accomplish this simple requirement.

Has anyone else faced this requirement or have thoughts on how to accomplish this?

Hi Christine,

Is this note also valid for S/4HANA 2022 .I see it was released in 2018. I wanted to know if we can add more fields in the determination of the RAR relevance in the sales document.

Thanks
