Hi,

This is controlled through Document type.

In SPRO > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types > Select your document type and click on allowed item category , there youc an see the allowed item category for a particular document ytpe.

Hi,

We can't define new item category in SAP.You have to use the standard item category from SAP.

But Item category determination in PO is controlled thorough document type.

PLease find below the configuration path to do so:

In SPRO(OLME) > Materials Management > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types > Select your document type and click on allowed item category , there you can see the allowed item category for a particular document ytpe.
