item category TAK in sales order.

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Actually i am a PP guy. One of out user want customer specific planned and production order. For that he want to change item category in sales order From TAN to TAK. he want the system should directly create sales order for that item with item category TAK. I manually changrd item category to TAK tested this in sanbox but system is not creating sales order specific planned and production orders after changing item category to TAK also. I also tried changing strategy to 20, 40, 82 but item category was not TAK.

Does item category is determined by strategy group in MRP 3.

When I changed item category to TAK why planned and production order were NOT sales order specific.

Pl explain

Thanks

Hi,

Review the next SAP note, it indicates the configuration points to consider:

2708455 - Item category TAK (make-to-order) is not defined in the standard SAP system.

In Make To Order scenario, item category TAK would be considered.

Hi,

how system come to know which item catwegory is to be used in sales order.

In your case, for TAK..if u check in VOV4 the item category determination must be like this...

Sales Order typeItem category grp(from Mat.master)UsageHigher level item cat.grpDefault item categ

OR0001(make to order) BlankBlankTAK

This ishow ur item categ wud get determined in sales orders...

i wanted to know waht ia significance of TAK as item category in sales order

I beleive TAK does not have any specific settings for MTO scnario..it's merely a copy of TAN..Only Item cat.grp 0001 does matter in MTO scenario...and ofcourse strat.type from PP perspective..
