Summary -

In this topic, we described about the below sections -

Material listing (inclusion) or exclusion used to control which materials specific customers can or cannot buy. Material listing lists which materials a customer can buy. Material exclusion lists which materials a customer cannot buy and the customer can't order excluded materials.

A material listing is created for a customer and the customer can only buy the materials contained in the list. The system does not allow any materials to be entered if they are not contained in the material listing. Material listing/exclusion is controlled with the condition technique.

If no records exist for material listing, the sold-to party buy the same materials as the payer. If there is a material listing record specific to the sold-to party, the sold-to party can only buy the materials permitted in the list. By default, the system takes exclusion list first and then listing.
