Dear venki,

  • 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

    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

  • Different GL Account for WRX - based on Valuation Class (No Material Master

    Hi Gurus,
    My scenario is as given below.
    1. We do not have any Material Master. We create short text PO's with account assignment category "P".
    2. We are also using Material Group in our PO. We have one Material Group for Domestic Purchases (say M1) and another Material Group (say M2) for Import Purchases.
    3. We have assigned valuation class say 3100 for Material Group M1 and valuation class 3101 for Material Group M2.
    4. Our plant is say RBUP and our valuation grouping code is say 0001 which is assigned to the same plant.
    Objective:
    While doing MIGO we want to have different GR/IR Account for domestic purchases say 108 and different GR/IR account for import purchases say 109.
    Issue:
    1. In OBYC setting GR/IR account is picked from transaction key WRX.
    2. Our entries in WRX are as given below for our Chart Of Accounts say DMN.
    Valuation Modifier Valuation Class GL Account
    0001 108
    0001 3100 108
    0001 3101 109
    3. But even when i am creating the PO with Material Group M2, it is not picking the GR/IR account 109, based on the valuation class i.e. 3101 which is assigned to the Material Group M2.
    Query:
    1. How can I achieve my objective of selecting GR/IR Account 109 for Import PO's and GR/IR Account 108 for Domestic PO's.
    Pl note we will not be maintain material master.
    Will give full 10 points if anyone can help me reslove this issue.
    Pl also do not waste any of your valuable time to address the account assignments for BSX or GBB-VBR. I am fully aware that in VBR this differentiation is possible.
    Rgds,
    Prasad.

    I suggest you to create a Dummy Materials. Lets say,
    material number: 1001
    enter material description as Domestic
    material number: 1002
    enter material description as Imports
    and in OBYC for GBB
    make the following settings:
    val grp      gen mod    val cla      gl a/c dr     gl a/c cr
    0001     VBR     4000     74180040     74180040
    0001     VBR     4001     78020091     78020091
    so that when u create PO u can get default GL (consumption GL )  for the material (u can use the same for material group also) and u can maintain WRX acc determination as follows ..
    val grp   val cla    gl a/c dr   gl a/c cr
    0001      4000     123456     123456
    0001      4001     456789     456789
    Thus u need to create 2 different valuation class for these material group specific and in PO while entering the text u can add the text which is displayed along with material description
    hope this helps

  • 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

  • How to remove old Class in Material master?

    Hello SAP gurus,
    A class has been assigned to one material and now my requirement is assign a new class to the material. Now the issue is after assign the new class while using the material in an order all the characteristic (from old and new class) is populating.
    So is it possible to remove the old Class from that material?
    Thanks
    Sha

    Hello Kalyan
    I raised an OSS note for this and below is the reply from SAP. Thanks for your support.
    Thank you for your query.
    To delete the old class their are 2 options available to you .
    1 )
    To delete the old class you have to remove the assignments of where
    it is used . Please access the old class in CL03 and then the menu
    path "Environment - Where used list"
    Once all assignments are removed you should be able to delete the class
    2)
    You could use a change number created in transaction CC01 to delete
    the class from the classification view.
    Please review note 166530 which explains about the deletion of
    classification data.
    Please refer to the online documentation at help.sap.com and the
    Classification section where it states :
    Once you have used engineering change management to process
    characteristics, characteristics of a class, or classifications, you
    must use engineering change management for all further changes.
    I hope the information is of help , please test carefully on a Non
    Productive system first

  • We can´t change the class in Material Master classification Tab (MM02)

    When i trying to delete the class in the Classification tab in PRD System, it triggers the following message
    'Assignment (# material) (classname) can not be deleted' because If you use classification data for selection of components of the BOM. Or if the material still has lots that are classified.
    But in QAS System it is possible to delete the class from Classification tab.
    Can you explain me, why it works in QAS and not in PRD?

    To delete the batch class  from your material, you will need  to first archive the batch (object MM_SPSTOCK).  Once the
    batch are archived and deleted from the system, you may still have to run program RCCLZUOB.  This program looks for objects which are still incorrectly assigned to classes.  First run the program in Test mode (Delete flag is NOT set).
    Then you can set the Delete flag to delete the assignments.  Once the assignments are deleted, you should be allowed to delete the Class assignment in MM02.  You must save the material and then go back in change mode to make a new class assignment.
    Also review SAP note 113091.

  • Cannot change Valuation Class although no Open-PO

    Dear Gurus,
    I try to change Valuation Class in Material Master but I cannot after I created PO and still after MIGO and MIRO.
    We are using PS and Material Master is set as below;
    Ind./Coll in MPR4 = 1
    Since requirement comes from PS, PO is created with account assignment category Q.
    Once we execute MIGO and MIRO for the PO, still we cannot change Valuation Class.
    If you know the way to change Valuation Class, would you tell me how?
    Best Regards,
    AK

    Hi,
    The change of the valuation class will impact on ML (material ledger), if the ML
    is active. Is ML active on your system?
    The note 575632 explains partly the effects on CCS. The
    valuation class is used to allocate the plan costs to the related cost
    element. Therefore, it is advisable to create new materials instead of
    changing the valuation class. This would be straight forward and easy to
    follow-up. The CCS does not a change history. Consequently, the previous
    periods can not be explained with current CCS. That may lead
    inconsistencies under circumtances. It is up to your decision. You can
    change, test the impact and decide on. The proposed solution of SAP
    would be avoiding that change and creating new materials.
    When you try to change the valuation class, what is the details of the
    error?
    In order to change valuation class in the material master, you have to
    make sure that none of the following exist in you system:
    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
    The system checks the stocks (storage loc. stocks and special
    stocks) of the same period in which the valuation class will be changed.
    If the valuation class of current period will changed, check in
    transaction code MMBE for zero stocks, or in SE16: MARD/MBEW;
    MCHB/MKOL/MSKA/MSKU/MSLB/MSPR.
    The system checks all dependant purchase documents without delete flag
    and error M3368 occurs when it finds at least one non deleted po item
    (not only when stocks exist).
    1. First be sure that no stocks exist in current AND previous period!
       see note 30656, with an example how to get zero stocks.
    2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all po items of the related material.
       If you found items with LOEKZ <> 'L', you have to delete them in ME22
    3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant.
       If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible.
       You have to these production order(s) !
    These hard restrictions are necessary as inconsistencies in account
    assignment will follow after change of val.class, when proceeding
    follow up functions of a PO item before and after changing valuation
    class. Also attached is 146241.
    In customizing for the Material Master, you can switch the check for
    open purchase orders and/or for production orders to a warning.
    You do this in Define Attributes of System Messages by assigning
    the message type Warning to message MM 326 and/or MM 327 respectively.
    Please refer to note 160970 for more information.
    I hope this will help you in resolving the reported issue.

  • Change profit centre in material master

    Dear all,
    How to change profit centre in material master with stock(opening balance - 561 stock ?
    What are implications of changing profit centre in material master ?
    Jeyakanthan

    In standard SAP it is possible to change the profit center at any time.
    However this will create inconsistencies in your profit center accounting. Hence you should issue all stock first to a cost center with 201 movement, then change the profit center, then get the material back with 202 movement.
    You need to make MM335 message an error message in OMT4 to allow a change only if there is no stock
    If you dont follow this way, then you create inconsistencies in profit center accounting.
    Because...you received your stock without profit center (actually it is a certain default profit center), if you then change the PC in your material, then each issue will be posted to the new PC, while it never had a receipt.

  • 2 Valuation Class - Same Material Type

    Hi ,
    I have 2 Valuation class 9001 & 9003 for ZPAC Materil Type .
    9001 - Packaging & 9003 Casing .
    Where i can find the difference between this Valuation class in Material Master.
    I have 2 Material with different Valuation class with same Material type.
    I Could nt able to find the difference in between this 2 material.
    Like Packaging & Casing where i can find this,
    Pl suggest.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Go to OMWC, there click on "Global Categories", here position cursor on the Valuation category (which is maintained for Material Master) and click on "Change" button, here check have you entered any Valuation type in field "Default: val.type ext.procure."
    This defaults the Valuation Type in Purchasing Documents.
    In MIGO, if you don't want to enter valuation types manually then use concept of Batch Determination if your materials are batch managed.
    Procedure for Batch Determination: -
    1. Go to OMCG and here put Batch Search Strategy "ME0001" against Movement Types 541 and 543 O
    2. Now in MBC1 - Maintain condition record for Strategy Type "ME02" and here keep Selection Type as "O"
    After doing the above settings, system will not determine the batch and valuation type during Subcontracting PO, but at the time of Transfer Posting (MB1B) and Consumption of Components (MIGO), system will determine batches and corresponding valuation type
    If materials are not batch managed then go for "Stock Determination Procedure"
    1. OSPX - Define Strategies for Stock Determination
    Here take a copy of Stock Determination group "0001" and create a new and assign to your plant.
    After maintaining Stock Determination group and rule go to "Stock Determination Item Table", here enter stock type as "F", Storage Location (if required, otherwise keep it blank), enter priority as 1, 2, 3 and valuation types against that in which sequence you want these to be determined.
    Now in SPRO > MM > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Stock Determination > Assign Stock Determination Rule in the Applications >  Inventory Management > Here assign Stock Determination Rule to 541 and 543
    Now assign Stock determ. group in MM02, under "Plant data / stor.2" view of material master
    Now in MIGO - Click on "Stock Determination" button to get the valuation types automatically.

  • Define Valuation Class against Material Group through SPRO.

    Hi,
    Can we define Valuation Class against Material Group through SPRO.
    Because we don't want to insert valuation class during material master creation. Reason, User can select easily wrong Valuation class during creation of material master and due to this, valuated in wrong GL accounts...
    During material creation, valuation class should automatically show in Accounting View.
    Pleas guide..

    Hi,
    For your requirement as you have 10 Material Types and you should have 10 new account category reference &10 new  valuation class and link(OMSK)each Material Type with individual valuation class though respective account category reference. Also assign each account category reference in respective material type in OMS2. So when you create material (MM01) with a particular material type, then only assigned valuation class will be defaulted/allowed to enter in accounting -1 view.
    In the standard we have some predefined material type, valuation class and account category reference and a link between them has already established by the system. If we are using these standard setting no additional efforts are required. But to meet any specific requirement, if we have to create a new material type or a new valuation classes or a new Account Category Reference (all the three), then we have to establish this links in bewteen.

  • 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
