Hi

Material Determination is used to swap one material for another

To configure the Material Determination:

Go to SPRO -> Reference IMG -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Material Determination -> Maintain Prerequisites for Material Determination (As shown in the screenshot below)

The first step is u201CMaintain field catalogu201D. This screen can also be accessed from the transaction OV26.

u201Cmaintain Condition tables

Now click on u201CMaintain access sequencesu201D. Access sequence is a sequence of steps SAP follows in order to obtain the condition record.

Select A001 and click on u201CAccesses

u201Cmaintain condition typesu201D. And u201Cassain in the material det proceduresu201D

In this step, we would assign the this procedure to Sales Order document type.

Go to Transaction OV14 or go to Transaction SPRO -> Reference IMG -> Sales and Distribution -> Basic Functions -> Material Determination -> Assign Procedures to Sales Document Types (As shown in the screenshot below)

Now to maintain the substitution reasons:

Go to Transaction OVRQ

This can be done through substituiton reason T Code [OVRQ]

See the substitution reason number for Manual Material Selection

- check the Entry box

- check the Warning box

- select A for Stategy

- save.

Maintaining Materials for substitution:

Go to Transaction VB11 or follow the navigation shown in the screenshot below:

u201CMaintain condition recordu201D for the combination

Go to OV14 and assign the Procedure A00001 with the Sales Document Type.

Now go to VB11 > A001 and assign the New Material under material Column.Maintain Proposed reason as 0004 which is Automatic Selection.
