difference between iten cat and general item categary?
thanking you in advance

Answer Posted / brajendra

General item category grp would refer to the higher level
item category and item category grp would refer to the
default item category

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".

Also, 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.

Example, in the standard SAP System, the item category
group NORM is defined for materials kept in stock and the
group DIEN for services and non-stock material

Item category Group is one of the Main factor to determine
the ITEM CATGORY in Sale docment.
