"General Item Catagory Group" is mainly used for inbound
delivery.
"Item category group" is valid for respective sales
organization and distribution channel combination only.
That means , for different combination of sales
organization and distribution channel , you can have
different "Item category group".
"General item category group" is normally specified by MM
in material master where as "Item category group" is
specified by SD in sales organization:2 tab.
