What is the difference between General Item Category Group and Item Category Group?..

Answer / anilkumar dalai

General Item category Group is an extension item category
group.
Example: if one select item catagory group as NORM, but
under item category group, NORM can further be classified
as Service item, packagaing item or Normal item
using "general item category group". General item category
group is maintained at client level, this field can be
maintain from Basic Data View of Material Master. Thus in
case item category group is missing, then general item
category group is used for item category determination.

Item category group determines how a material is processed
in the sales order. When processing sales and distribution
documents, the system uses the item category group to
determine the item category and proposes it in the
respective document. Item category group is defined in the
Sales Org View 2 of Material Master Record.
