Define Item Category Usage

In this menu option, you specify the item category usages which control the usage of an item. Item category usage controls, for example, the system response if during document processing an item does not refer to a material but to a text item. Item category usage can also be maintained via the item categories (detail screen for item categories: Goto -> Item usage).

Default settings

In the standard SAP R/3 System, the following usages are defined:

Batch split

Text item

Service item relevant for billing

Service item not relevant for billing

Actions

1. Check first whether you can copy the usages in the standard system.

2. If necessary, create a new item category usage by entering an alphanumeric key with a maximum of four characters and a description.
