Salam Mohamed, You can accomplished this by following procedure:

  1. Create Item Matrix and just create the Dimensions not any attribue it will be balnk this you can do so manually or by using item wizard.
  2. Now A blank Item Matrix is created now you can click on item matrix and then click on its properties window.
  3. Click the Add button to attached standard item on it. U can create the item and also attached the existing item.
  4. Put the Dimension Attribue value with the newly added item.

I know the above procedure is hard but this is the > Hello,

There are several item creation add-ins that allow you some more control over the generation of item lookup codes within a matrix. I'm not sure if any will provide the specific functionality you are requesting, but they will be much more flexible than the RMS New Item Wizard.

Check out Fashion Bundle from Retail Realm as an example of a matrix creation utility. I believe DRS has an addin called Matrix Master as well.
