Set as default value the Item Category in the Maintenance Order

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

We are trying to find a user exit in order to set as default value the item category in the Maintenance Order once the Material has been introduced (Tag Components).

SAP Customizing let the user set the Item Category automatically per Material Type, but we need to set different Item Categories to materials belonging to the same material type.

We would really appreciate any help relating this issue.

Thank you very much,

Víctor Liedo

Hi,

Customizing mentioned above may help you, I don't think there is a suitable exit to set a default value. You could add some custom validation through user exit to check if the entered item category is valid:

CNEX0037 Check a freshly created component

CNEX0038 Check a changed component
