Answer / vbthallur
Item category (field) determines the procurement type (i.e,
material procurement is via standard means, consignment,
subcontracting, etc). This field controls certain
properties of the procurement such as - whether a material
no. "can" or "must" be entered, whether a GR can be posted
or not, whether an invoice can be posted or not, whether a
purchase price can be entered or not, etc.
Account assignment category (field) determines what account
assignment data needs to be maintained for the material
being consumed (it can be either stock mat for consumption
or purely consumable material). This field is just a
categorisation of several account assignment objects that
can be charged for a particular consumption being posted.
