Hi,
Pls.find the fucntion of maintaining Item category group in material master sales view:
Item Categorgy Group:
A grouping of materials that the system uses to determine item categories during the processing of sales documents.
Procedure
Depending on the item category group that you apply and the sales document type you are processing, the system automatically proposes an item category in the document.
Example
In the standard system, for example, there are standard items, items that represent services (and do not require delivery processing), and items that represent packaging materials.
Further pls find definition of Item Category :
Definition: item category
ITEM CATEGORY :Sales document item category
Definition
A classification that distinguishes between different types of item (for example, free of charge items and text items) and determines how the system processes the item.
Procedure
The system proposes an item category. If alternatives are defined for your system, you can change the item category manually in the sales document.
Example
If, for example, you identify an item as a free or charge item, you tell the system, in this case, to ignore normal pricing procedures.
Sales and Distribution (SD)
An indicator that defines the characteristics of a document item.
For example, the item category controls the type and scope of:
Pricing
Billing
Delivery
Inventory posting
Transfer of requirements
Items in stock, and value and text items are item categories.
Hope this helps clarifying your doubt more.
Regards,
Tejas
