Purpose of Usage & HL in delivery itm category determination?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Delivery item category is determined based on

Delivery Doc Type + Item category group + Usage + Higer level item category = Delivery Item category.

What is the purpose of "Usage" and High Level item category" what do these define and why are they used.

Thanks

HI

Item category is defaulted in sales order, as we configure item category determination. Item Category is determined as under:

Sales order Type + Item category Group + Item Usage + Higher level Item Category.

Item Category Group segregates the material for determining the appropriate Item category. Fes example of Item Category group are NORM for regular material with delivery, LEIS for service material, BANS for Third party Sales & so on .............

Example of Item Usage are PACK for packing Material, CHSP for Batches, & so on ................

Example of Higher Level Item Category for free goods is say line item 1 is billable with item category TAN & line item 2 is free goods configured as TANN. Here TAN is Higher level Item Category.

hi friend the purpose are given below

higher level item category : This tell that for the given higher level item category the sustitution should be made

eg: if higher level item category is TAN then for only TAN substitution will be made.

Item usage tell the scenarios and how the item will be used in that scenarios .

eg: or + norm + tan + usage --> tax

hence when tan comes the in place of tan , tax will be substituted .
