Hi,

The values you have maintained in VOV4 T.Code are wrong.

Here the problem is you didn't enter any Item category group.

First goto MM03 t.Code.

Enter your material number.

Select the tab "Sales: Sales Organization Data".

In this,goto the sub tab "Grouping Items".

Check the value for the field "Item category group".

Make a note of it.

Goto VOV4 T.Code.

Assign your entry here under item category column.

Krishna.

I have maintained following entries there but of no use.

ZCVC VCTR WKN AGN TAN WKN

ZCVC 0002 WKN AGN TAN WKN

ZCVC NORM VCTR WKN AGN TAN WKN

ZCVC VCIT WKN AGN TAN WKN

Please respond.

Hi,

In the item category determination you maintain the ITEM USAGE, make sure you also create the Customer material info record in the VD51 with that Usage

Else delete the ITEM USAGE from VOV4 and check

I hope the issue is because of the item usage u maintained .

Try this and revert back if it works.

Hi,

Check what is the Item category group assigned for your material.

T.Code:MM03

Enter your material number.

Select the tab as 'Sales: Sales Organization Data".

Ensure that the same is assigned here in VOV4.

And also remove the Item usage field entry in VOV4 T.Code if you are not defining in VD51(Customer material info record).

Hi

Value Contract is of 2 types, they are

i. General value contract (Order type should beused "WK1" in standard).

ii. Material related Value Contract (Order type should be used "WK2" in standard).

Item category for General Value Contract Items should be WKN and for Material-related Value contract, Item category should be WKC in standard settings.

The Item category is determined either with the" Item category Group" or 'Item usage" along with the "Order Type"

I mean, if you are doing General value contract, the Item category is determined by any of the below,

WK1 + VCTR + (blank) + (blank) -

---

>>> WKN (Item category), or

WK1 + (blank) + VCIT + (blank) -

---

>>> WKN

If you are doing Material-related Value Contract then , Item category determination should be as below,

WK2 + VCTR + (blank) + (blank) -

---

>>> WKC (Item category), or

WK2 + (blank) + VCIT + (blank) -

---

>>> WKC

While creating Contract, use t.code VA41 and the Order Type WK1 or WK2 as required.

Hi

Kindly check the item category determination for the line item you have entered in the value contract.So go to VOV4 and check the value contract item category determination

WKN + NORM + -

AGN =WKN
