2 different item categories based on Plant

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a scenario where I need to determine 2 different item categories based on the Plant.

I will have the same material produced per 2 different Plants in SAP.

1 Plant is always producing the material using SAP x APO;

1 Plant will always be asking a Third party (Vendor) the stock material.

In this case I need to have 1 item category for the regular sales (Stock based on TAN item category);

and 1 item category for the third party process (Stock received from Vendor (TAB - ALE PO automatic created).

I know that I can have both in config, but one of them I could change manually during Sales Order creation.

However we want to automatic determine the item category according to the plant informed in the item.

Is there an User Exit that I could use to do it?

Thanks

You can try with User-Exits in program MV45AFZB - USEREXIT_SOURCE_DETERMINATION

Thank you for your reply.

I will try to use MV45AFZB probably reading my plants in a variable set in TVARVC table.

Best regards
