Acc. ref category - Valuation class - material type relation

One material type can have only one account reference category.
One valuation class can have only one account refernce category.
One account reference category can be assigned to more than one valuation category.
Therefore we may conclude that one material type can have only one valuation type allowed.
We may  also conclude that one valuation class is allowed for more than one material type.
Is it correct.

One material type can have only one account reference category.
Yes, check  OMS2 Trxn code
One valuation class can have only one account refernce category.
Yes,  check OMSK Trxn code
One account reference category can be assigned to more than one valuation category.
+Yes,  check OMSK Trxn code, it is combination of Mat Type & account refernce category +
Therefore we may conclude that one material type can have only one valuation type allowed.
No it is not valuation Type , for one mat type one account refernce category is allowed.
But the Same account refernce category can be used for many mat Types
We may also conclude that one valuation class is allowed for more than one material type.
Yes, Bcz one account reference category can have many valuation classes

  • Valuation class & material type

    Hi all ,
    Can anyone plz tell me the answer on following
    What establishes the relationship between a valuation class and material type
    A.     Valuation grouping code
    B.     G/L account
    C.     Valuation category
    D.     Valuation grouping code.
    E.     Account category reference
    Thanks in advance
    Shreek

    i think more than one answer should be correct for this question. The valuation class makes it possible to:
    Post the stock values of materials of the same material type to different G/L accounts
    Post the stock values of materials of different material types to the same G/L account
    On the other hand, a account category reference is Group of valuation classes that the system uses to check whether the valuation class you have entered is allowed when you maintain accounting data in a material master record.
    So i think the answer should be G/L account, Account category reference and Valuation category.
    Please refer to the site:

  • Exact Difference between Non Stock NLAG and Non Valuated  UNBW Materia type

    Dear All
    What is the Exact Difference between Non Stock NLAG and Non Valuated  UNBW Materia type?
    I tried creating Purchase Order and found that accouting doc got created at both times and stock was not updated in MMBE for both material types.
    Regards

    Hi,
    non-valuated material (Material Type UNBW):
    This type of material is managed on a quantity basis, but not on a value basis. This makes sense for materials of low value, stocks of which nevertheless have to be monitored (for example, operating manuals).
    Non-stock material (NLAG) (Material Type NLAG):
    Inventory management is not possible for these materials either on a quantity or value basis. For frequently required consumables, the use of this material type nevertheless enables you to store the information required to create
    purchasing documents (such as texts and units of measure).
    When a material is procured directly for consumption, no material master record is necessary. In connection with consumable materials, you can distinguish between the following cases:
    • Consumable material without material master record
    • Consumable material with material master record that is not subject to
    inventory management (on either a quantity or value basis)
    • Consumable material with material master record that is subject to inventory management on a quantity, but not a value, basis

  • Valuation Class - Movement Type - Account

    Hi,
    I´m not yet that experienced in SAP but I´ll try to explain as good as I can.
    Is there any easy way to display all accounts that are used within a specific valuation class?
    The specific accounts per valuation class I have found using se16 in table t030.
    But this table is not telling me which movement type are using the accounts.
    So I currently go to spro -> MM -> Valuation and Account Asignment -> Account Determination -> Account Determination without Wizard -> Purchase Account Management -> Configure Automatic Postings -> Simulation
    - first problem: I do not know how to find a material for a specific valuation class (no filter criteria?)
    - second problem: no complete list I have to click through each movement type to see where a specific account is used -> a complete list over all movement types within a  selected/used valuation class would help a lot!
    Best regards,
    F.

    Hi,
    You can get the material list per valuation class through table MBEW (Valuation).You can use MB51 t.code to get the document list based on movement type.
    The movement type and valuation class relation is through transaction event key. Movement type will determine the transaction event key through value string (the same you can find in OMJJ t.code, here select movement type and enter any movement type and click on account groupign > You can find the relation).
    Transaction event key is assigned with G/L accounts based on Chart of accounts/Valuation grouping code/valuation class/account gouping(only for GBB,PRD & KON).

  • Diifferent Accounts based on Valuation Class /Material group  Shorttext -PO

    Hello Sapient
    We need to differentiate the Posting for short text PO . we want  the Asset  / Office supplies / Services to post in to a separate G/L Account .We seperate it by Material group , but the posting cannot be done by valuation class assigned to the material group . How can  we handle  the WRX using valuation class or by any method. what i am referring is all for PO without material master. .
    Thanks
    Jeevan

    Hi Jeevan,
    You are absolutely right. I am also facing the same problem. In our case also we do not have a material master. We have created a PO with short text and with a material group. We have assigned a valuation class to this material group.
    We have used account assignmed category "P" for the PO.
    For the debit posting i.e. for GBB-VBR its taking the GL account based on the valuation class, but for WRX its not taking the GL account with the valuation class.
    We want to have different GR/IR account (say 108) for domestic PO's and different GR/IR account (say 109) for Import PO's. We are not able to do this diffrentiation because in OBYC in WRX, while doing MIGO the system is picking only that GL account for which the Valuation class is blank.
    I don't think there is a solution to this. If you find any then pl
    pease let me know.
    But if you don't want to segregate the GL Accounts in WRX then the simple thing for you to do is in OBYC WRX maintain the GL account without Valuation class. Your problem will be resolved.

  • Relation between Valuation Classes and material type

    Dear all,
    How i can keep relationship between valuation class & material type.
    Can i put many valuation classes & single material type and vice versa.
    Regards,
    Nitin PAtil

    Nitin,
    Valuation class is used for automatic account determination .Valuation class is depend on material type.
    Valuation class is key used to group together material with same account determination.
    Valuation class is assigned to Material type via account category reference.
    Same valuation class can be assigned to differnt material type if they belong to same account category reference.
    However only one account category reference is assigned to one material type.
    For Ex.
    Mat Type         Act Cat Ref             Valuation class(only example)
    ROH                0001                          3001,3002,3000
    HALB               0001                          3001,3002,3003
    FERT                0002                          7900 , 7902
    I hope this will clear your concept.

  • Valuation class / valuation group

    Hi guys,
    What do we mean by valuation class in Materials
    And what do we mean by valuation group.
    Thanks
    Srikanth

    Dear,
    Unless u maintain valuation area with valuation grp code, you can not do automatic posting either issue or Recive of the material.
    as Automatic Posting as Fundamental is as
    Material Type
    I
    A/c ref Category <-> Valuation Class <-> G/L acct
    one thing more, Different Valuation class with Similar General Modifier must be attach to Valuation Gr Modifier for Automatic Posting.
    Details as
    Valuation grouping code for the valuation area
    If the automatic account determination within a chart of accounts is to run differently for certain company codes or plants (valuation areas), assign different valuation grouping codes to these valuation areas.
    You must define the automatic account determination individually for every valuation grouping code within a chart of accounts. It applies to all valuation areas which are assigned to this valuation grouping code.
    If the user enters a company code or a plant when entering a transaction, the system determines the valuation area and the valuation grouping code.
    Before you maintain automatic postings, you must obtain the following information:
    1. Valuation level (plant or company code)
    Establish whether the materials are valuated at plant or at company code level
    When valuation is at plant level, the valuation area corresponds to a plant. When
    valuation is at company code level, the valuation area corresponds to a company
    code.
    2. Chart of accounts and valuation grouping code per valuation area
    Find out whether the valuation grouping code is active.
    Activate split valuation
    If it is not active, determine the chart of accounts assigned to each valuation area
    (via the company code). If it is active, determine the chart of accounts and the
    valuation grouping code assigned to each valuation area. Group valuation areas
    You must define a separate account determination process for chart of accounts
    and each valuation grouping code.
    3 Valuation class per material type
    If you wish to differentiate the account determination process for specific
    transactions according to valuation classes, find out which valuation classes are
    possible for each material type Define valuation class
    4. Account grouping for offsetting entries to stock accounts
    Under Define account grouping for movement types, determine for which
    movement types an account grouping is defined for the transaction/event keys
    GGB (offsetting entry to stock posting), KON (consignment liabilities) and PRD
    (price differences).
    this may help u

  • MM Valuation Class

    Dear Experts,
    My requirement is to valuate each plant stock within the same company code separately:
    Plant 1000 --  GL Acc Stock1000
    Plant 2000 -- GL Acc  Stock2000
    Plant 3000 -- GL Acc Stock3000
    this valuation is regardless the material type trading , Raw ,etc.  please can you advice how to map this requirement in most proper approach with respect Account category reference, valuation class, Material type/ Account category reference, My initial idea is to create three valuation class 1000,2000,3000 and assign ARef material types to these classes, Is this the approach or is there other ideas?
    APPRECIATED

    HI,
    The stock postings (BSX) is based on valuation class and Valuation grouping code. so, either you can have new valuation class defined or have altogether a new valuation grouping codes for the 3 plants. Then later you can assign the individual G/L accounts in OBYC.
    In case of material movement between the plants there might be  a conflict in account determination based on valuation class ( If  a same material exists in the receiving plant with a different valuation class)
    Need more clarifications on the Business process to help further.

    For example, for good movement 101related to a purchase order.

  • Link Material Type Item Category

    Hi,
    How can i make the link between the material type and the item category when the material has NO BOM ? Otherwise each time a PM order si created the item category has to be filled (stock or no stock). I know it is there i just can't find it.
    Thanks,
    Olivier

    Hello,
    Can you brief me on how it works?
    When i checked the setting of link item category with the material type then it shows me that the item category is to be defined based on the material type and maintenance plant. But what is the relation in term of the order type i.e. whenever i create any order with a specifica order type, the default item category should get reflected on the componenets tab of the order?
    Can you guide me how to do this setting.

  • Valuation class and movement type

    Hi sirs,
    What exactly mean by valuation class and is there any sublink to valuation class and movement type.
    BSR

    Hi BSR,
    Regarding the meaning of valuation class and link between valuation class and movement type, you just have to understand this.
    <b>valuation class + movement type = transaction key --> GL account</b>
    explanation :
    <b>Valuation class</b>
    It is a field maintained in the accounting view 1 of Material master. This is nothing but the classification of material like Raw material, Finished goods, WP, stores & spares etc. It is indicated as numerical number.
    <b>Movement type</b>
    This is a 3 digit numerical code which is used for all material movement in MM module. Say for example movement type 101 is used for Goods receipt from vendor or from production.
    <b>Transaction Key</b>
    The combination of valuation class and the movement type translates into a transaction key which indicates the type of transaction.
    remember:
    The combination of Valuation Class + the Movement Type helps in determining the GL accounts automatic updates.
    hope it helps and don't forget to assign points.
    regards,
    Lily
