Hi,

How the account determination is done for material group?

In the purchase order if we are not entering the material, it asks for account assignment category and material group. How accounting is done for this?

Hi,

I guess you might be looking for material account assignment group, because this is used for account determination. If its only a material group, thats to categorize some set of materials depending some attributes we classify as a material group and make use of it say for example a material group discount.

As regards to material acc. assignment group > its to identify the diffenet materials as either finished goods, trading goods so on and use that in revenue account determination in combination with

Customer account assigment group, Sales area, account key and G/L account.

Hope it helps. Please reward if useful.

Thanks & Regards

hi,

it is nothing to do with account posting or determination.

material group is nothing but the the category of material to which it belongs to.

for example if ur client is automobile client,then probably material groups would have been customised in such a way that ,each maetrial group from 1 to 5 consists of certain features like engine capacity,cc power,milage range,colour combination and other technical features of bikes between 1 to 5 material groups.and if u have craeted any bike as material then you would assign appropriate fields in all 5 material groups depending on customising masters.

this is how it is used in sap.nothing to do with posting related to FI.

reward if helps @!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
