Hi

Transaction group is the field which controls the transaction code for creating teh document of that document type.

The transaction group is also in another database table called T180. This table has the transaction group, the transaction code, the program and the screenfor it.

So if a particular t.group is assigned to the document type, then the document can be created only using the tcode which is related to the t.group in T180.

Hence, it is very much possible to create a sales order in VA21 if the transaction group of the sales order document is 2, though this has some other implications.

I think now you are clear about the functionality of transaction group.

Please reward points.

Dear Arun

It is an indicator for controlling the sales documents defined in the system that allows the system to process different business transactions in different ways.

The standard version of the SAP System includes pre-defined sales document types or you can also define your own. Three examples of sales document types are:

<b>-></b> Inquiry (IN)

<b>-></b> Quotation (QT)

<b>-></b> Standard order (OR)

Sales document types are grouped into processing groups (sales document categories).

Advertising Management (IS-M-AM)

A characteristic used to define sales-relevant features of sales documents.

The sales document type defines the type of output admissible in sales documents and the process used for checking the credit limit in sales documents. Sales documents and their features can be defined by the user.

Sales document types include:

-> inquiry

-> offer

-> order

Thanks

Transaction group controls the data to be updated in the respective tables for each transaction of the respective document type.

it also controls for which sales, shipping and billing documents the system should update reporting indices (in tables TVIND and TINPA).

Hope this helps

Cheers
