The VPRS is a valuation condition, normally the cost of goods sold. If it comes from

Answer :
The access sequence is a sequence of steps, which is used by the underlying
system to obtain a condition record used for material determination. All the
condition records have specific values assigned to it, which determine the order in
which the system will read the access sequence. The system starts reading the
access sequence with the lowest number step assigned to it and tries to process
everything assigned to that particular access sequence through condition table &

occurs to the MRP for each schedule line. In case of individual transfer,
the order quantity, the sales document number, the item number, and
requirement class for each schedule line for which the demand has been
created are shown by the requirement overview.
The collective requirements are group of requirements created over a
certain period of time such as on the daily basis, weekly or monthly and
transferred to MRP. In this case, requirement overview does not show
the single transaction wise descriptions of the requirements, rather it
shows details of the group of requirements. The collective requirement is
beneficial for the organizations that deal large volume of sales orders
daily.

requirement type.
If the strategy group is not maintained, the system uses MRP group to
determine a requirement type.
If the MRP group is not defined the underlying system uses material type
to determine a requirement type.

to determine a requirement type with the help of item category and MRP
type.
In case, when the MPR type is not defined the system uses only the item
category to determine requirement type.
