Use

When creating an article master record, you must assign it to a merchandise category. If a merchandise category reference article exists for the merchandise category you have specified, the data for the merchandise category reference article is proposed in the new article master record, but only if you have not specified a reference article on the initial screen (see Articles: Reference Articles).

Merchandise category reference articles cannot be used in logistics processes, for example, you cannot buy one. They make it easier to maintain article master data.

Integration

Subsequent changes to merchandise category reference articles are not copied to the articles created from them.

Prerequisites

You have created a merchandise category reference article when creating the merchandise category. You can create only one merchandise category reference article for each merchandise category. However, you can use the same merchandise category reference article for more than one merchandise category.

Note

Assign the merchandise category reference article to the article type that occurs most frequently in the merchandise category.
