Answer / siva

When a existing line item is refering to another line item,
the item category of the refered line item is called as
Higher level item category.
For eg:
Free goods-- You give 1 tv free for 10 tvs
10 tvs in one line item is refered by 1 tv in another line
item to say it is free for the 10 tvs.
here the item category of 10 tvs is the higher level item
category.

Also this is used in cases like Bill Of Material ( BOM)

Usage:

This is another component which is used to determine the
item category.

Usage can be-- FREE, TEXT, SERVICE etc etc..
for eg:

In standard SAP when you type some thing in the description
of the line item and even though you enter no other detail
it fetches the item category TATX

this is because it assumes the line item usage to be text.
So DOc type + TEXT==> TATX

hope this helped you to clear your query.

Thanks and regards
Siva

Answer / pinki

Higher level item category -> e.g. an item is free with
some other item then item category of original item will be
Higher Level Item category for the item category of free
item.

Item Usage is hardcoded in ABAP programs.

Answer / natalia

Hi, I am having a problem with Item Category on Sales
Order. I need to change the item category but when I try to
manually change I am informed that the Item Category is
not defined for the item. I was informed that the USAGE
needs to be changed to be able to modify the Item Category.

Can you please let me know where can I find the USAGE field
to change it?

Thanks
