Former Member

Hello,

We are on SRM 4 version in classic scenario.

We are creating a limit shopping but when he has been approved we got an error from the backend system :

Shopping Cart XXXXX3 (Purch. Requisition XXXXX): ME020 Item category X not allowed with document type XX

the same user has already created a shopping cart on limit with no problem but not on the same plant/cost center/gl account...

Do you have an idea of the error message solution?

Thanks!

Hello,

Check the following settings in ECC system.

1) IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Requisition ->

Define Document Types

Select "EC", (or those related with BBP), then double click on

"Allowed Item Categories".

2) IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order ->

Define Document Types

Select "EC", (or those related with BBP), then double click on

"Allowed Item Categories".

Also, check if note 140846 is applied.

Kind regards,

Ricardo

Limit shopping cart can have either item category "D" or "B" , so make sure your document type/Item category configuration in back end system is there for both D and B .

Thanks
