All About Material Exclusion & Inclusion (Listing) in SAP SD

Material  exclusion / listing provides a provision to restrict a customer’s buying choices. For example, if certain materials are  defined in “Exclusion List”  of a specific customer, then, the customer can not buy material from “Exclusion List”.

Example  – A company produce 10 materials and company want to sell only 6 material to customer ABC then company create a list of these 6 material as “Listing List “(products that can be ordered) and remaining 4 material may be in  “Exclusion List”. In this scenario Customer can buy only 6 material from “Listing List”.

Material exclusion / listing is controlled by condition technique. System check for material in “Exclusion List” first and later “Listing List”.

Functions of Item Category in SAP SD Process

I have seen that many candidates have failed to get firm clarity on item category and its functions. Here I have listed all possible functions covered in SAP SD Certification exam syllabus for C_TSCM62_64, C_TSCM62_65 and C_TSCM62_66. I will expand this blog as quickly as possible with sufficient screenshots to bring more simplicity on item category. Please make a valuable comment or write me an email if I have missed any function or you need more clarity on listed functions.
