  Overview: 
  The SAP transaction code OS36 is used to determine alternative items in Sales and Distribution (SD). This transaction code is used to define alternative items for a material that can be used in place of the original item. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The OS36 transaction code allows users to define alternative items for a material in the Sales and Distribution module. This is useful when a customer orders an item that is not available, or when an item needs to be replaced due to quality issues. The OS36 transaction code allows users to define alternative items that can be used in place of the original item. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter the transaction code OS36 in the command field. 
  2. Enter the material number for which you want to define an alternative item. 
  3. Enter the alternative item number and description. 
  4. Enter the quantity of the alternative item that can be used in place of the original item. 
  5. Save your changes. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to note that the OS36 transaction code should only be used when necessary, as it can lead to confusion if multiple alternative items are defined for a single material. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all alternative items are properly tested and approved before they are used in place of the original item.
