Dear Raja,

As you know there are many kinds of catalogs like defects, tasks, activities, charactersitc attributes etc

SAP helps in creating plant specefic catalogs sets which are called as selected sets.

these include - 1 characteristic attribute ,3 Usage decision . for other catalogs selected sets can be made based on the configuration

Code group holds a set of codes

Eg take catalog - 1 characteristic attribute

Code Group - eg Colour

Codes - Red - Ok

Yellow - ok

Green- Not ok

HI

code groups are used in Notifications and quality result parameters.

Code groups are used to combine and structure codes within a catalog type

code groups at client level to group codes that have the same contents or relate to one another, within a catalog type. Codes, that are assigned to a code group are also known as group codes.

When you maintain the code group index, the system locks the required catalog type for other users. However, if you use the individual maintenance function, only the required code group is locked.

these are can ot create by plant wise.

1.when you have material which measures by means of color then you canhave code group color and codes of red ,black etc..

2.if you have defect codes then you can mention them

3.if you have problems of perticular part, then in notification by use of codegroups and codes you can enter the data.

A selected set contains a combination of different codes at plant level, for example, coded descriptions of characteristic attributes (such as color, shape, surface characteristics), defect causes or usage decisions from different code groups.

selected sets to combine codes from several code groups for processing that are allowed or useful for a particular application.

Codes that are copied into a selected set are known as set codes.

When you maintain the selected set index, the system locks the required catalog type for other users. However, if you use the individual maintenance function, only the required selected set is locked.

4.with combinationof code and code groups you can create the selected sets , canbe used in Usage decission.(ex:aprroved, no approved,ok, not ok etc)
