Dear experts,
My problem is that material components are added by group of people with an indication (item category = mandatory) of stock or non-stock (third-party). When the project is created, follow-up is done by logistical people and the choice stock/non-stock is not always correct.
Question is now: Is it possible to change item category on a material component once it's already entered? (You can change it in the overview screen of the activity but it has no effect in changing account assignmnet categories,...)
As an alternative I thought about deriving more correctly the item category (and procurement indicator): this would diminish the cases where they have to delete the material component and add it again:
- Standard customizing:
- derive item category based on material type and plant: not an option because it's more specific then that.
- derive procurement indicator from the network profile: not an option because it's more linked to material
- can 'procurment type' from the material master be used in a standard way? (external - internal?)
- Last idea: User-exit: based on 'some' fields of the material master derive item category and procurement indicator? (in program LCOMKFP2 there is a user -exit)
Any one other suggestions/experience?
