Material type change for split valuation

We have to change to material type for materials having split valuation.
Suggest the required

The material type is stored in table MARA, however, MM17 can not change all fields that are contained in a table. MM17 is not a table modification tool, it just supports business process of mass changing some field contents. It is more like mass process MM02. But the fields that cannot even easily changed in MM02 like base unit of measure, batch managment flag are not supported within MM17. Material type cannot even be changed in MM02.
There are that many checks that need to be performed and cause a failure, that you cannot do such in a mass change transaction.
It is certainly possible to record MMAM to finally do this with batch input, CATT or LSWM for many materials. But first try it manually for 10-20 materials to make your experience.
By the way, dont forget the number range. If you change material type, then the material number will remain, which may screw up your number range logic (that is often defined after heavy and long discussions. If you have different number ranges per material type, then you should block the transaction MMAM for anybody)

Two Valuation Class for one material type which is split valuated

hi , I have a material number which is split valuated like Capital & Revenue. There are seperate inventory GL accounts for both Capital & Revenue. So whenever material is procured based on the nature either Capital or Revenue , Corresponding Inventory GL account gets debited. How t

It is very much possible. Material type is linked with Valution class by account category reference and has many to many relationships. Valution type is linked with account category reference.
1 You create the material at valuation category level in MM01
2 Extend the material for Val type 1 with Val cls 1 in accounting view
3 Extend the material for val type 2 with val cls 2 in accounting view
for example
If you have valution type IN & EX linked with ROH material type via account category reference then you have the option to selecte valution classes 3000, 3001, 3002, 3003 in Std SAP. You have to make sure that Automatic account determination setting are correct for the valustion classes selected in OBYC.

Ex . Mat code : MAT 123, having val types as IN and OV, which has price control of S, here i have changed the price for the val types IN & OV, but i'm not able to change the price for the main material MAT123, which has price control V?? how to change it

hi Samuel,
We have a similar case, need your help;
Case: Split valuation is activated but parent has price control "V" and child i.e. diff valuation types have "S". We want to make std prices of all valuation types "0". It is done but the parent still shows value in MAP.
a. How do we make MAP of parent as "0" (price control "V")
b. Will it impact and how e.g. MB5L
c. Is it ok if we ignore the valuation of parent
d. All valuation types under parent are made "0"
Thx

Physical inventory document creation for split valuated material

Hi
We are doing stock count in our company. We are using split valuation for some of the materials. When I tried to create a PID for split valuated material which are not in stock, system issued a standard error message. What I understood from that error message, we can create a PID for split valuated materials which are in stock. Is it so? If so, then how can we count split valuated material?
Let me know if you need any info.
Thanks in advance..
Jeny...

Please refer to SAP note 30254 and it should help.
Symptom
If you create a physical inventory document for a material in a storage
location without existing storage location segment, error message M7006
is displayed: 'Material & (material number) & (plant) & (storage
location) does not exist'. Thus, a storage location segment is not
created automatically for this material.
The same also applies to the batch segment. The batch segment is also
not created automatically but, if a batch is specified for a material
when creating a physical inventory document, that is not yet created for
this material, error message M7042 is generated: 'Batch & & & & does not
exist'.
The same applies to the special stock segments which are also not
created automatically. Different error messages are generated here
depending on the special stock (see also Note 64448).
Additional key words
MI01, MI09, MI10, M7076, M7183, M7184, M7185, MARD, MCHA, MCHB, MSKA,
MKOL, MSKU, MSPR, MSLB
Cause and prerequisites
If no storage location segment or batch segment or special stock segment
exists to a material, this then means that a goods movement did never
occur before in the system to this material (batch) to this storage
location (special stock), that is that the material (batch) never had a
stock to this storage location (special stock) in the system before and
that it was never posted before on this segment. It is therefore not
possible to carry out a physical inventory for such a material (batch).
It is different, if a goods movement has already occurred to a material
(batch) to this segment and if only the present stock is zero. A
physical inventory is then necessary and also feasible for this material
(batch) since the different segments are not deleted automatically in
the moment in which the stock becomes zero.
Solution
For a material for that no storage location segment, batch segment or
special stock segment exists, it is not necessary, to carry out a
physical inventory on this storage location or for this batch or this
special stock. If, however, a quantity is physically found to such a
material, the corresponding segment must be created before the physical
inventory.
There are 3 options to create storage location data:
       - maintain the 'Storage' view in the material master for the
          material and storage location or
                                                                  Page 2
       - use the 'Enter storage locations' function in the material
          master or
       - post the first goods receipt (providing, the automatic
          creation of storage location data is permitted in the plant
          and for the movement type).
There are 2 options to create batch data}:
       - create the batches in the material master manually via
          function 'Create batch'.
       - post the first goods receipt for the batches to the respective
          material.
You can only post the various special stock segments via posting a goods
receipt. An exception is special stock 'K' (vendor consignment). You
must define a consignment price in the material master for this special
stock using the 'Create vendor consignment' function before a goods
receipt can be posted for this special stock.

Only price control "V" is possible for split valuation'

Hi
For semi finished items price control has been assigned as 'V'.when i am trying to change the same to S' I got the error message is"Only price control "V" is possible for split valuation''.Even i checked and corrected the MRP views in Material master.
Can any one help me to sort out this issue
Regards,
P.Selvakumar

Hi,
I guess that you are getting the error message M3 185 ('Only price control "V" is
possible for split valuation').   This message is correct.
ONLY materials with Moving Average Price can use the split valuation
function.
The reason is the following one:
If there are 2 valuation types, named X and Y.
There is an equality:
Material pricetotal quantity = Price Xquantity X + Price Y*quantity Y
In order to balance,
When X and Y is 'V', the header material should use 'V'.
When X is 'V', Y is 'S', the header material should use 'V'.
When X and Y is 'S', the header material should use 'V'.
So only price control V is possible for split valuation.
In accordance with the text of the message M3185, split valuation
requires the price code 'V' (moving average price) for the header
record.
Please, refer to the SAP Library (http://help.sap.com) documentation
under the menu path (for your current release level, 470):
MM - Material Price Change (MM-IV-MP)
-> Split Valuation
   -> Creating Material Subject to Split Valuation
"Creating Material Subject to Split Valuation:
1. First create a valuation header record for this material. This is
   where the individual stocks of a material are managed cumulatively.
To do this, fill in the Valuation category field on the accounting
   screen when you create the material master record and leave the
   Valuation type field blank. In the Price control field, enter V
   (moving average price), since a moving average price is constructed
   in the valuation header record from the values and quantities of the
   individual stocks. When you save, the system creates the valuation
   header record.
2. Then create the material for a valuation type.
   To do this, call up the material in creation mode again. Due to the
   fact that a valuation header record exists, the system requires you
   to enter a valuation type for the valuation category.
3. Repeat step two for every valuation type planned."
In order for the system to take into account the different values of
the substocks, the material at the header level must necessarily have
a 'moving average price' (V) control.

Material Type Change (Val Category Error)

Hi,
I have a problem, I have to change material type of one material. There is stock of that material is 50. I have adjusted the inventory as zero (mov 702) in the current date. Then material type changes thru T-code MMAM, but I want to insert valuation category Z in teh mateiral master, as the material is split valuated. But when maitaining val category display error is coming " valuated stock exist" but there is no stock available. Do I have to zero the stock in the previous period also, if yes, can somebody tell me how to do.
Or there may be another reason.
Full points to helping answers.

GR

You can only change the valuation class or valuation category under the following circumstances
u2022No stocks are available for the material.
u2022There are no existing purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material.
u2022At present, no purchase orders or purchase order items are being created or changed.
If system is not allowing changing valuation category there will be either stock of this material or existing purchase document
1) If there are stocks in the previous period, you can clear them as follows:
a) Post the stock in the previous period to the current period (for example, using movement type 561) so that the stock for the previous period is the same as the stock for the current period.
b) Clear the stock with the posting date in the previous period (for example, using movement type 562).
u2022 2) If there are Open purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material, close it.

Hi NB
A fruit company is importing apple from America & Europe. The price of apple imported from America is Rs.10 per Kg. The apple imported from Europe is Rs.15 per Kg. How do they maintain material master for Apple with two prices..?
A chemical factory produces methanol. The cost of methanol produced internally is Rs.20 per liter. But due to high production they purchases methanol from outside at Rs.30 per liter. How do they maintain material master for methanol with two prices..?
Petrol bunks have different varieties of petrol. Hi speed petrol costs Rs.52 and ordinary petrol costs Rs. 47. How do they maintain material master for petrol with two prices..?
If your answer is to maintain two material codes i.e. one for apple-America & one for apple-Europe then you are wrong. If your answer is Split Valuation, then you are right.!
Steps:
We have to activate split valuation if you want to use split valuation. But by default split valuation is Active.To activate the split valuation:
tcode OMW0.
To differentiate between material stocks, you must define valuation category and valuation type.
The valuation category specifies which criterion should be used as the basis for differentiating between the various partial stocks.
The valuation type specifies an individual characteristic of a partial stock.
Go to tcode OMWC, create global types, then global category. assign global types to global categ. and then attach them to valuation area(plant).

Inforecord for Split valuated materials

Hi all,
How can i maintain different prices for split valuated materials
For Eg. I have a material split valuated based on its Quality vendor supplies two diff quality materials with different prices
how to maintain the prices in inforecords or any alternative to maintain both the prices.
With regards,
Krishna

hi..
Split valuation is for Valuation Purpose only...
SAP does not support....Procuring same material with Diff. Split Valuation Type from Single Vendor is not allowed by SAP standard..
You cannot Maintain Purchase Info for Material which is having 2 Split Valuation type......with One Vendor......
Because For One vendor and One material combination, you can maintain One split valuation type only....
Hope it works..
Thanks..

Prerequisites for split valuation?

Dear Gurus,
what are the Prerequisites for split valuation?
thanks in advance..

Hi mate,
In split valuation you can valuate the material in MAP. The main accounting view should always be in MAP. The price control of the valuation types can be either of standard price or MAP.
In split valuation the number of accounting 1 views will be Number of valuation types +1.

Can we maintain two values for one material a plant without split valuation

Hello Guru's,
We have a situation, we use MOVING AVERAGE PRICE in accounting view 1. Without split valuation.
The actual issue is, we receive, damaged material from a customer with a "0" value, and we send the material as it is, to a vendor with a "0" value.
The vendor, sends us back the repaired material with a value, say "10" (and this keeps changing).
Is it possible, to have Non Valuated Stock and Valuated Stock within the same Plant, for Material "A".
And it shouldn't affect the MAP. Also, we don't want to have Split Valuation.
Please help.
Kashi

if i am getting your scenrio correctly then i will suggets u to maintian the material master with moving avreage price control indicator then
case1> gr from customer at o rs
use the tcode mb1c and movement type 511
as it is evaluated at MAP hence only material document genrated no accounting document
well tried to realize your scenerio but it is not possible to do that
as MAP is going to get effected as a result of valuated good recipet
u need to go for separate material code then transfer good from non valuated to valuated one using tcode mb1b and movement type 309 or use split valuation

How do I update standard cost for split valuation material?

We are using split valuation on our maintenance material. Maintenance material is held in an inventory account separate from our production material. We have materials that are set up with a Parent material as variable, and child materials which are NEW or REFURBISHED or CORE.
The Child materials are set as standard cost. Some of the standards are old. Unlike our production materials, which have their cost standards on the Costing 2 tab of the material master, split valuation child parts have their costing on the Accounting 1 tab.
I attempted to update a cost standard by loading a future price manually in the material master. I was able to load a future price, but could not get it to release in CK24.
I have been unsuccessful in finding a process or procedure that tells me how to update a child standard once is already exists. There was one blog that said that the standards could only be released using CK24N if the quantity is zero. I attemped to update costs on part with zero quantity on hand. This was also unsuccessful.
I am looking for a process- ie 1) load a future cost using tcode XYZ, 2) Mark and release cost using tcode XYZ, 3) validate changed inventory value using tcode XYZ.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi Govind
If your valuation variant reads MAP as the strategy sequence - Then average MAP will be taken... i.e. the MAP in the parent accounting view of the material will be taken
However, if your strategy sequence is intended to look for info records, then follow the link given in the earlier reply

Spilit vauated material type changing

Dear Sir
How to change the material type which is subjected to split valuation
Thanks
Maruthi

Hi Vikas,
Check the attributes of the material types, it should be same for both of them, i.e the quantity and value update should be same for both old and new material types.
Also check if there are any open PO's against the Old purchase order.
The account category reference should be same for both the material types. check in the config for the accont category reference.
hope this helps..

Vendor Consignment for Split Valuated Materials

Dear All,
We have a scenario where in our material is split valuated,we have 2 valuation type import and Domestic, both the valuation type is being supplied by a single distributor, the price of the import valuation type is different from the price of domestic valuation type.
We are trying to configure consiginment process for split valuted material.While maintianing consignment info record, we are not able to maintian separate info record for import and domestic valuation type (since material /vendor/plant/purchase organization are same).Hence while doing goods issue using 201 K, the system is taking the price from the info record.Is there any solution available, to post the goods issue for import valuation type at a different price and domestic valuation type at different price.
Thanks,
Vairavan.

How system will pick the info record price for movement type 201 K ?
As of my knowledge, system will create accounting entry as per the material price (MM03 - Accounting 1 view for the valuation type)
It may create problem for 411 K movement type, but not for movement type 201 K.
If you need to pick different price as per valuation type, then you can do this via condition table.
Have a look into the discussion Info record Price on the basis of Valuation type
