Item categories in oracle apps R12
What is the use of Item Categories?
Ø Use categories and category sets to group your items for various reports and programs.
Ø A category is a logical classification of items that have similar characteristics.
Ø A category set is a distinct grouping scheme and consists of multiple categories.
Ø Some application modules, Inventory, for example require that all items are assigned to a category.
Ø The user specifies a default category for this purpose in each of these modules.
