1. Creation of Assortments/Assortment users:

What is Assortment - SAP definition: “An assortment is an SAP Retail object to which materials are assigned (a process is known as “listing”).” Actually, an Assortment is a group of articles assigned to a group of sites. But it is not necessarily true. Why not true? Because each plant has his own assortment also. Types of Assortments:

1. General assortment
2. Local assortments

General Assortment -General assortments are type C assortments. They can be assigned to any number of Customers, and every Customer can be assigned several general assortments. If multiple assignments parameter has been set in Customizing, users can also use assortments of this type to assign stores and distribution centers.
