Change the valuation class of material [Stock transport order scenario]

Dears,
Client would like to change the valuation class of material.
There is no open Purchase order/Process order/Purchase requistion and stock in plant.
Scenario- One Stock transport order is created.
For same goods issue (351-issuing plant) and goods receipt (101-receiving plant) is done.
When we are going to change the valuation class of said material, message is "purchase order is open
and it shows the no of STO [for which receipt and issue is done]"
To resolve this issue we had first delete the STO line item no(ME22N). Then change the valuation class.
(this allows). and then undelete the STO line item. Through this we can change the valuation class of material.
Please advise in such business process that this is right way or there may be other option.
Thanks & Regards
Rajan

rajanshah219,
Here's my take on how to fix:
*Manually change Config TCode OMT4 - change message MM 326 & 327 to type "W"   (if open order exists...now you can enter through warning messages)
*If inventory exists, then issue out of stock to a cost center
*Change valuation class
*Put stock back into inventory (reverse to that same cost center)  Note issue out and reverse back into inventory must happen in the same posting period.
**Valuation class should be changed as expected
**Manually change config  TCode OMT4 - change message MM 326 & 327 back to type "E"
Thanks,
Jason

  • Change of Valuation Class for the existing material

    Hello,
    I am facing the issue while trying to change the valuation class of the existing material.
    The material type is 'NLAG' which is non stockable material. However, all the PO are account assigned to the G/L account & cost center. Hence there is no stock of the material exists to any plant/ SLOC.
    There is no open PO/ schedule lines/ Production orders are exists for the material. Also there is no stock exists at any plant.  Even then system is throwing the message as 'The valuation class cannot be changed' (Message no. M3 368).
    After debugging could see that it fetch the PO that are logically closed (has GR, IR, vendor payment has been made). 
    We do not want to have the split valuation for that material.
    The material is in existance for quite a long time, so could you please help me to change the valuation class?
    Thanks in advance,
    Samip Patil.

    Hi Raju,
    To resolve SAP error message M3 368 I would suggest that you refer to SAP note number 1967543. This note outlines the issue and a resolution to it:
    Please have a look at the description of the error M3 368. This error may occur if one or more of the following already exist for the material:
    1. Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
    2. Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
    3. Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
    Resolution:
    If you have valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period, you will get message "Stocks already exist.". You have to clear all the stocks both in current period and previous period. Please have a look at SAP Note 30656, it shows an example on how to clear the stocks in
    previous period. You can use transaction MIGO to execute this step.
    If you have open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines, you will get message "Purchase orders already exist.". You can find related purchase orders after you click 'Display Error' button. Please delete them in transaction ME22N.
    If you have production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place, you will get message "Production orders already exist.". Please archive these production orders. You need to set deletion flag for these orders firstly and go to SARA, use archiving object PP_ORDER to archive
    these orders.
    Kind regards,
    James

  • Valuation class of material master to be changed

    Hello,
    My master data team has insereted a wrong valuation class in the material master record. Purchase order has been raised and a GR has been done for the same. SAP gives following steps to change the valuation class:
    The valuation class cannot be changed, choose 'Display error'
    Message no. M3368
    "Diagnosis
    You wanted to change the valuation class. However, this is not possible because one or more of the following already exist for the material:
    Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
    Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
    Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
    System response
    Your change is reset by the system.
    Procedure
    If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows:
    a) Post the stocks of the material to an interim account.
    b) Change the valuation class in the material master record.
    c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account.
    If open purchase orders already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase order items for deletion.
    If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to Deleted."
    My question is how do I post the stocks to an interim account since stock accounts are configured to post automatically?
    If anyone knows how to manage the posting, please let me know.
    Thanks
    Keyur

    Hi,
    Make the movement with a movement type in MIGO  that posts to the same account in FI for all Valuation classes.
    After changing the Val. CLass then reverse the above movement.
    Kind regards

  • Changing Valuation Class of  Material

    I want to change the valuation class of a material, if i do, what effect will it have on open PO's and schedule agreements. How do I change it if there are open PO's for this material.
    Thank you.

    You can chage the valuation class if no stock or no document exist for that material. Actually valuation class is assigned with the GL  with the help of material type. So if at all you want to change the valuation class make sure that no document or stock exist for the PO moreover you have to follow the following steps for that
    go to MM02 -- enter material --- select the view accounting 1 then click on previous per/year and their make the necessary change to change the valuation class for the material
    Hope this will help you
    regards

  • Change in valuation class

    Hai Friends,
    How can i change the valuation class in the material master for specific material types.

    Hi,
    Valuation classes are already defined by MM people  in OMSK based on material types and this valuation classes post the stock value of the material into respective G/L accounts.If you want to change the valuation class go to MM02-->Accounting1 choose the respective valuation class and save.One thing you have to notedown is if you assign in correct valuation class then at the time of stock posting system throw error message that G/L account has not maintained.

  • Stock transport order /stock in transit

    Hello
    For a stock Transport order scenario { Recieving Plant , Delivering plant } , the documented procedure is:-
    1) stock transport order>Goods issue by delivering plant--
    >stock in transit(valuated)   -- >Unrestricted/inquality/blocked/consumption
    just sticking to the above method, how many Material documents & accounting  documents would be generated ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    It depends on your setting, whether you go for 2-step Stock Transport or 1-step.
    If It is 1-step then 1 material document and 1 accounting document.
    This material document will be of movement type 647 and stock will not come in transit, stock will directly get moved from Supplying Plant to Receiving Plant.
    And if it is 2-step then 2 material documents and 1 accounting document.
    1 material document for GI from Supplying Plant to Stock in Transit (Movement Type - 641), and another from stock in transit to receiving plant (Movement Type - 101).
    And it will update PO History in both the cases.
    You can config. this in SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Setup Stock Transport order > Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance > here activate "One-step" indicator if you want 1-step otherwise keep blank for 2-step.

  • Problem in creation of STO(stock transport order)

    hi all SAP gurus,
    i am facing the problem in creation of stock transport order with ME21N code. i m getting the error msg of "Not possible to determine shipping data for material in STO "
    i have checked the stock transport order setup in customization. but not getting the clear idea to come out from this problem.
    if anybody have the idea of " how to do the customization of stock transport order setup, pls. let me explain.
    thnx in advance.
    rgrds,
    rajesh

    Hi Rajesh,
    when ur creating STO with UB doc type, then you have to maintain material in both the plants.
    Regarding the error which is comming for you, you have to check the settings at
    SPRO- IMG- MM-Purchasing-Set up stock transport order- Assign delivery type & Checking rule
    here for document type UB and your supplying plant-XXXX select nothing for Dlv type(delivery type) and chr - 01 and after this save.
    After this you create STO as you are doing and see what the system is prompting.
    For any further clarification let me know.

    Oh no, not at all!  This forum is meant to answer all your problems!
    Configure Inter company Stock Transport Order
    Material should exist in both the plants (Delivering & Ordering),
    Internal customer should be assigned to the ordering plant ( MM -> Purchasing ->
    Purchase Order -> Setup stock transport order -> assign the internal customer to the
    ordering plant and assign the Sales area of the internal customer.
    Assign its Sales area to the delivering plant
    Assign the document type and Delivery type NB and NLCC
    Assign the Supplying plant --> Receiving Plant --> NB
    Take the delivering plant and assign the sales area.
    Vendor master has to be created and assign the supply source (Delivering Plant).
    Create a purchase order ME21N ---> Save
    Delivery VL10 G ---> Calculation rule (appropriate) --> Assign the purchase order
    number here and execute.
    Select the Delivery creation line and do the back ground process.
    Start the log display and see the delivery document number by the documents button
    Goto VL02N --> do picking and PGI --> Then do the MIGO with respect to the delivery
    document.
    Billing (Intercompany pricing conditions should be set).
    AND

    3. Assign a Delivery Type for the Delivering Plant - OMGN (for Stock Transport Orders,
    NLCC)
    4. PO type (which i believe you have done) - OMGN
    5. Assign Vendor No. to the Supplying Plant (done) - VK02
    6. Assign Customer No. to the Purchasing Plant for the Inter-Company Invoice (but you
    need to assign this to the Sales Organization pre-assigned to the Purchasing Plant),
    IMG-SD-Billing-InterCompany Billing-Define Internal Customer No. by Sales Org
    ***and by the way for the Invoice to work between Cross-Company Plants, you need
    also to have a Sales Org for the Supplying Plant and a Pricing Determination Procedure
    STO:
    STO CONFIG:
    The following steps have to be followed in order to configure stock transport order
    between two plants.
    1. Create a vendor for the Company code of the receiving plant using account group 0007
    via T-Code XK01.
    2. In the purchasing data view assign the supplying plant and the schema group
    3. Create customer with the sales area of the vendor.
    4. The shipping conditions, the delivering plant and the transportation zone determine the
    route in the STO.
    5. In the pricing procedure determination relevant to the STO assign document pricing
    procedure and customer pricing procedure to get the pricing in the invoice.
    6. Maintain condition records for pricing condition.
    7. Maintain carrier as a partner in the customer master.
    8. In OMGN select the supplying plant and assign the company code and sales area.
    Similarly select the receiving plant and assign the company code and sales area (The
    company code to which the plant is assigned to).
    9. Assign the delivery type and checking rule to the document type.
    10. And finally, assign the purchasing document type to the supplying plant and the
    receiving plant.
    11. Create the STO using T-Code ME 21N and save.
    12. Check for release strategy if any and release using T-Code ME 28.
    13. Create delivery in background using VL10G.
    14. If delivery is created, it is an indication of correct configuration and master data
    creation.
    Stock transfer between two plants in deffernet company codes is known as inter company
    stock transfer.
    Material shoud be maintained in both supplying and receiving plant MM01
