Dear Sree

It is recommended to copy return sales order from original sales order in case of BOM, as SAP has given the item category determination for this. But if you want to copy from billing following configuration is required

1. In VTAF give entry for RE and F2(Standard) , in item category give TAQ.

2. In item category determination 2 entries will have to be given.

RE ERLA TAQ

for BOM components if you are using NORM as item category group then

RE NORM TAQ TAE ( where TAQ is higher level item category and TAE is item category determined for components. This wiil sort your issue.

Thanks

BOM Returns not supported with std SAP settings . To achieve this you have to fine tune the system.

In BOM, main item - Item cat group-ERLA ( assumes that, delivery /pricing happening @ main item level. In Billing only main item will appear, where as in Delivery - main item & component will be copied from the sales order)

if yes,

Create new item cat for returns which is copy of REN ( maintain structure scope SD01 & Application V) =ZREN

maintain item cat determination for returns;

ZARE (Copy of RE doc type) + ERLA = ZREN

ZARENORMZREN(Heigher level item cat)=REN

maintain relevant copy control settings-

1- Invoice - Return order

2- Return order - return delivery ( header & ITem level0

3- Return order - Return invoice.

now run the test cycle.

Note: if you issue credit for returns to main item, then main item- item cat should be relevant for pricing & billing maintained. & return delivery will be activated only for component ( Determine sch.line category accordingly)
