Product Category Rules in Shopping Cart

Hi All,

Currently trying to figure out the logic behind how the SRM system fills in the Product Category field in the Shopping Cart when taking an item from a Punch-Out Catalog. From what I've researched so far, how it is supposed to work is:

1. If a valid value is passed through NEW_ITEM-MATGROUP[n] then SRM should populate this.
2. If no value is passed then default value maintained in Ext. Attributes of Org. Structure is taken.

Are there any other rules that I'm missing? What if the catalog passes a valid Product ID, but no Product Category, will the system take the associated Product Category from COMMPR01, or will it take the default from org structure? In our tests we found that is taking the default from org structure, and I'm not sure if this is a bug, standard, or configuration issue.

Regards,
