Hi,

You are maintaining the checking group in material master,schedule line .This the key factor for availability check.What ever group you are maintaining in master will be carried forward to order based on item category and Schedule line

Please check the settings in caaryout control for Av check.

Thanks Raneesh for your valuable inputs.Here checking group gets triggered based on setting in material master,item category,schedule line category. But how checking rule gets triggered in sales order??? Because in carry out control for Av check.,,, one checking group is assigned to multiple checking rules.Then how a particular combination of checking group and checking rule gets triggered in sales order???

Hi Rohan,

Checking rule is a transaction based thing, and mostly SAP standard checking rules are used, it is rarely we use anything custom for this.

i.e. A for sales order

      BO for back order

     PP for production related transactions etc.

For a combination of checking rule and checking group triggering, system checks checking group from material for which sales order or any other transaction for that matter is getting created and checking rule is based on transaction.

This is how the combination gets derived in sales order.

Hope answers your query, please close the thread if it does.

Rohan,

During standard SD availability check for sales docs, (e.g. from within, say, VA01, VA02, etc) the checking rule for Sales docs is hard coded by SAP.  "A" for MTS sales docs, a few other rules for non-MTS.  During standard Delivery availability check (e.g. from within, say, VL01N, VL02N, etc) the checking rule is hard coded by SAP.  "B" for MTS deliveries, a few other rules for non-MTS.

During other scenarios for Availability checking, checking rules can be assigned in configuration.  If you have a specific additional scenarios you wish to know about, please let me know.
