Hi Rajesh,

Once you save the order & do the delivery (i.e. even without PGI) & Save the deliviery document, the item category in the sales order will be greyed out.

If you only save the order & do not create delivery & if you want to change the sales order, then the item category can be changed if you maintain manual item categories in VOV4.

Hope this will help you.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Aravind,

I have maintained the manual item categories already and the sales order is still open.

Hope you understood the scenario.

Hello Rajesh,

Please review OSS note 208245. This explains how to find out why any field is not available for input in a sales order.

I hope this helps.

Hi lan,

Thanks for your effort,

I am working on that SAP Note in mean time i came to know that i am not able to put the billing block for some of line items because it is greyed out.

Do you feel that this is also related to same SAP Note#208245.

Please clarify my doubt.

Hi,

Item category can be changed till ur sales order is not having any subsequent document. once it is processed for the items effected u can not change the item category.
