Requirement types (procurement) dependent on customer ?

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

During sales order creation I need to change requirement types (depends on customer).

Ex. If the customer is VIP there should be a KEB - u201CIndividual cust. purchase ord.u201D, itu2019s a regular customer there should be KSV u201CSales order with consumptionu201D requirement type.

I donu2019t think there is a standard configuration in SAP for that.

Do You know any user exit where I can change requirement type on sales order?

I used: userexit_move_field_to_vbap, but I think itu2019s too late. Changing requirement type has no effect on schedule line.

Other once I used have no data about the customeru2026

Could you suggest me something?

Best regards,

Maciej K..

I dont think any UserExit is needed for this,

As per ur post,

system has to trigger req type based on Customer-

if Customer is - VIP- then req type -X or else req type - Y

to do this, you need to customized new Item category-

maintain Customer material info record- in maintain Item Usage - (eg: ZVIP- VIP Customer)

in item cat det'n - use this item usage to trigger the Cust. Item Cat-

then in Availability check config, -under

Determine Requirement type -

Item Cat + MRP type = Req Type (Origin of Req type should be 1)

try n revvert- it works

Sometimes the easiest solutions are the hardest onceu2026 Thanks for your answer. Your answer will be appreciated.

The only think is that each time new material will be crated users will have to update all info records for many customers. This same for new customers u2013 each time new customer will be created new info record must be done. Not very user friendly especially that there are hundred thousand materials and lotu2019s of customers.

Do you know any other solution for info records so the users will not have to make any updates?.
