3685085 - How to use the Intelligent Item Proposal functionality.

Symptom

When creating a Sales Order in the "Create Sales Order - VA01" app, the button "item proposal" adds new items into the Sales Order.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Cause

In general, there are two types of product proposals available: a "static" and a "dynamic" one.

The Fiori sales order application "Manage Sales Orders - Version 2" only supports the "dynamic" product proposal, which is called Intelligent Product Proposal in SAP Help Portal Documentations.

The "static" product proposal is only available in Create Sales Orders -  VA01.

In both proposals, the item category of the item assigned is going to be the Standard Item category (TAN), it is possible to change the Item Category of the item only after the functionality was used.

Resolution

To use the intelligent product proposal, do the following, so that the Propose Items action in the Fiori application works:

  1. In the business partner application (sales area data, sales data) assign customer procedure A for product proposals (in Business Partner this field is called PP Customer Procedure).
  2. Create a number of sales orders with items for this customer ("training data", for example).
  3. Schedule a background job, so that the sales order data is stored separately to be accessed by the product proposal functionality.
  4. Create a new sales order, enter the customer, navigate to items, choose the "Propose Items" button.
