A simple way to acheive this would be to set up 2 item categories- one modeled on standard item
Cat TAN ( relevant for Delivery based Billing) and another on L2N( relevant for Order based
billing). Now in item cat assignment keep the item cat related to most likely scenario ( may be
Delivery based billing) as the default item cat and the other one as manual alternative. So when
Sales Org S1 users create orders, thy can manually change the item cat.
However if you want to automate item cat selection based on Sales Org, then you can set up a
different Item cat group in the Sales Org 2 view of the material master for S1 and S2 and thus
drive the system to determine different Item cats as needed.
You may also resort to user exits for item cat determination based on sales org, but it may be
overkill for this.
