• Key Concepts: 
  An item set is a feature of the SAP MM-PUR-SRC Product Sourcing component that allows users to group items together for easier management. It is a way to organize items into categories, such as “office supplies” or “electronics”, so that they can be managed more efficiently. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To create an item set, users must first define the criteria for the items that will be included in the set. This can include product type, supplier, or any other criteria that is relevant to the items being grouped. Once the criteria has been defined, users can then add items to the set. Items can be added manually or automatically based on the criteria defined. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an item set, it is important to consider how it will be used. For example, if the item set is being used for purchasing purposes, it may be beneficial to include supplier information in the criteria. This will make it easier to find and purchase items from specific suppliers.
