Hi,
Yes. it has to be in unchecked mode.i regret the same.
SAP Help wording 'Purchase order with account assignment (KBS)
You cannot assign this transaction/event key to an account. It means that the account assignment is adopted from the purchase order and is used for the purpose of determining the posting keys for the goods receipt.

4.what accounts are generated for Non-Valuated material & for Consignment m

4.what accounts are generated for Non-Valuated material & for Consignment material?
please explain me.

Dear Srinivas,
Please find below the explanation about both materials in a simple manner.
"Non valuated material".(UNBW):
For this material type in the basic settings only Qty. update is active & no value update.
No accounting data is maintained in Material master hence stock values are not updated.This material is procured only with account assignment.
Consumption statistic is updated only after Goods Issue.Whenever material will come its value will be always go to consumption account.
Consignment Material :
In this case material is still owned by vendor & only kept in your premises. Liability only starts when you withdraw material from consignment stock or post it to your own valuated stock.Liabilities are generally settled monthly.
At GR wrt PO material is directly put to consignment stock of vendor.It is possible to post another GR into consignment stock.No valuation takes place during GR.
Once the material is withdrawn from consignment stock( For prod) it is valuated with the price of vendor in as per INFO record.
If useful reward points,

Account determination for non-valuated material

hi,
I have configured account determination for non-valuated material when I try to post the Invoice then error come that GR/IR account required for posting. but my GR is Non valuated so GR/IR account would be ignore then why required GR/IR account by system at the time of Invoice.

You have to understand the difference between GR non valuated and non-valuated stock
Non- valuated stock has following attributes
1. Value update should not be flagged in the material type and valuation area combination (OMS2)
2. That means the stock will not have inventory values and further good movements after GR would not have accounting document
3. Non- valuated stock material can have GR valuated or GR non valuated ,depends on tick /untick of GR non valuated field in the purchase order under delivery tab.
4 . Material type does not have any control on GR non valuated .It is controlled by account assignment category or item category or manually in the purchasing documents.
Scenario 1:
in your case if you have created PO with non-valuated material and without GR -non valuated flag ,there must be an accounting document in GR as follows
GBB     - Consumption account - Debit
WRX - GR/IR account - credit
and if you do invoice ,you would have following accounting entries
WRX - GR/IR    - debit
vendor-           - credit
Scenario 2:
IF you have created PO with +non- valuated material + and flagged + GR non- valuated+ in PO, then GR will not have any accounting entries and MIRO will have following accounting entries
Vendor -     credit
GBB - consumption account - debit
let me know if you have any concern

Total Stock in Accounting View for Non valuated material

Hi,
There is one plant 1050 which is non valuated (only Qty updation ).I maintained accounting view with value 0. I will do 501 movement.
It is showing me in MMBE tcode.
But when I go to check in accounting view it is zero.If it is non valuated whether stock gets updated in Accounting view of material master or not.
This problem we are facing at client location.
Please help me in understanding.
Regards
Raghavendra Pai

Hi,
It is not a problem, this is standard SAP, since the material is non valuated, you could not see the stock in Accounting view.
Normally for non valuated material, no need to maintain accounting view. Even if you maintain stock will not be reflected in that view.

Stock Transport for Non Valuated Account Assigned Material

Hi Experts,
I have to satisfy some unique requirement from my demanding FICO team to make certain process work our way.
Following is the scenario...
1. Plant A and plant B belongs to the same company.
2. Plant A makes material X (non valuated, ind/coll indicator = 1).
3. X calls for sub-assembly Y (non valuated, ind/coll indicator = 1) which is a make item in plant B. X and Y belongs to different Profit Centers
4. Sales order placed at plant A for material X.
5. MRP runs and creates a stock transport order in plant A to buy the non valuated material Y from plant B. STO is account assigned to the sales order.
6. Plant B makes the material Y by creating a production order that is account assigned to the same sales order and does PGI to ships it out to plant A.
7. Plant A GRs the material Y and this puts it in sales order stock. No value move, just qty move. Also no FI document created.
8. Plant A issues component Y to the production order created for material X. Cost of Y doesn't show up in the production order as it is non valuated.
9. Upon settlement of the production order in Plant B, the ACTUAL cost gets settled to the sales order in plant A. So at the time of settlement the profit center switch happens for Y (i.e. the profit center for Y changes to match X's profit center)
This is a beautiful process from logistics point of view. BUT, my FICO has unique requirement for inter company sales for our organization. For them to consider a process as inter company sales, the following constraints has to be met...
1. Ownership of material remains with producing profit center until consumption by the receiving object. (with the above mentioned process the profit center switch happens during prod. order settlement)
2. Cost for the consuming profit center will be moving average, standard cost or planned cost. (we are dealing with non-valuated materials and the settlement happens at actual cost)
I need your expertise to help me define a work aroud. I am thinking about a lot of options to somehow make it work but can't seem to get solutions. Following are my thoughts...
1. Is it possible to possible to make the settlement with planned cost instead of actual cost?
2. Is it possible to make a profit center switch during consumption rather during settlement?
3. Is it somehow possible to create an underlying FI document during GR at plant A? (I know SAP does not create a FI doc. for non valuated materials).
4. Or can plant B send an invoice to plant A for the STO? (I believe this can be done for cross-company STO) I am thinking doing an Invoice Receipt at plant A instead of doing a settlement might show up the cost for Y in the production order for X.
An IR with the planned cost would be an awesome solution to get the buy-in from FICO. Can this be done?
I hope you don't mind my lengthy message... Waiting for some positive response.
Thanks.

Anyone??? This is kinda urgent?

Different GR/IR account for service entry and GRN for non-valuated material

Hi,
Our requirement is GR/IR account while doing service entry and GR/IR account while doing GRN for non-valuated material (UNBW) should be different.
Though we maintain valuation class for material group (Transaction OMQW), system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting. The system is ignoring the respective valuation class G/L account. Also if we maintain valuation class for service masters, then also while doing service entry sheet system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting
Had i missed out any other setting. Pls help.
Regards

Hi,
In OBYC, please maintain a GL for valuation class 3200 for services and a GL for val class 3300 for Non-valuated material in WRX.

Account assignment for Non valuated Material

Dear All,
Please guide how to create PR & PO for non valuated material.
Regards,
Manish Jain

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-valuated goods receipt
At the time of the goods receipt, postings to the consumption account do not take place. The posting to the GR/IR clearing account is therefore not applicable. With invoice receipt, the consumption account is debited with the invoice amount. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account.

When posting GI for Non valuated material in Delivery geting error (M8147)

Hi Experts
We have a problem that we are trying to send a material from one plant in one company code to another plant in another company code (Inter Company Stock Transfer Order). The material is of type Non Valuated (So it has no valuation class). The PO Order type used and the PO account assignment category is of type saying GR Non Valuated.
Problem is in the outbound delivery (movement type 645 determined) when posting GI do we get a account determination error (M8147 = Account determination for entry 1000 GBB Z001 not possible), saying that no account could be determined.
Our understanding is that the GI for the delivery demands a Valuation, which we can not do as the material is NON Valuated.
How to set the GI non valuated for the outbound delivery, so we can avoid this error? please help

I cant believe that the same error message is coming up after the maintenance.
you either maintained an entry at a wrong level within GBB or the message must have changed.
Make sure that you take any information of this message into account (even the spaces)
the message is certainly not like you posted here: Account determination for entry 1000 GBB Z001 not possible
the message carries 4 variables , not only 3

Intercompany STO process for non valuated material

Hi Experts,
Please advise is intercomany STO process possible for non valuated material?
Material where only quantity update is there & value costed to a cost object.
If intercompany process is possible then what are all the steps that complete
the full cycle?
Regards,
Partha

Hi,
Intra-company-code stock transfer orders to nonvaluated materials can be created in R/3 without specifying an account assignment.
Carry out the following steps for the advance correction:
1. Create the message '159' in the message class 'XC'. To do this, call transaction 'SE91' (message maintenance). Enter the message class 'XC' and create the message '159' with the following short text:
           Message              Message short text
           159          The account assignment category could not be determined
           Save the message.
Thanks

Storage Location for NON valuated material in MIGO

Hi friends ,
I have created a purchase order for NON-Valuated material (UNBW) with Account Assignment "K".I did check the material type UNBW configuration where only Value Update is checked for my Plant.
Now at the time of MIGO , system is asking for Storage lcoation (mandatory) and after MIGO system also updates quantity in Storage Location entered in MIGO.
while in normal cases (like ROH material type) , if we create Account Assigned PO ( like K) , system neither ask for Storage lcoation at the time of MIGO , nor system updates Qty at any storage location.
As per my understanding , if we create Purchase Order with account assignment K , system updates value in consumption and doesn't update Qty in stock (although material is stockable) .....which is simply like immediately issue of material to cost center.
Therefore wondering why system is updating Qty for NON-VALUATED material.
Does non valuated material means , POST value to Cost center (for account assignment K) and Update Qty in stock ?
Like in case of Account Assignment , value gets charged to WBS and qty gets updated as special stock "project"
All replies are welcome .....
Regards
Shrey

By definition UNBW's are ony qty updating and have no value assoicated with them. Since the system needs to stock this qty somewhere it by deafult asks for a Sloc.

PO with Account Assignment P and NON Valuated Material

Hi ,
As per my undersatnding if I create a PO with Account Assignment "P" , system consumes it immediately and stock doesn;t get updated in any storage location.
But
If I use Account Assignment "P" with "NON valuated" stock , system is asking for Slocation at the time of MIGO and also updates Qtys in Storage location , although cost is being booked to consumption account.
Could u pls help to understand the logic for this ?
Regards
Shrey

Hi,
PLease read this para from SAP help .. it is useful to undestand your scenarion
Goods Receipt of Non-Valuated Materials
Use
If the stock of a given material is only managed on a quantity basis, an account assignment must be defined in the purchase order. However, this account assignment does not result in the goods receipt being posted to consumption/usage. Instead, it results in the costs being debited to the account assignment object.
The goods receipt is posted to the warehouse stock, thus increasing the unrestricted-use stock of the material.
*It is not possible to post goods receipts of non-valuated materials directly into consumption/usage. You have to post the goods receipt into the warehouse first and then enter a goods issue.*

Moving Average Price for Non-Valuated Material

Hello Experts
The question may seem to be quirky but need your advice for the below.
My client is buying non-valuated material against a cost center, they do not want to keep the stocks valuated. No value update only quantity update. The accounting documents are the following when the GR is done by receiving folks
Qty of material XYZ goods receipted = 10
Debit     Consumption GL   12345678       10 USD          Cost Center ABC123 (This is a warehouse cost center)
Credit    GR/IR account                            10 USD
Qty of mateiral XYZ issued = 5
The goods are later on issued to Production cost center and the client was the below entries to be passed with MOVING AVERAGE PRICE.
Debit    Consumption GL 12345678           6 USD          Cost Center ABC456 (This is production Cost center)
Credit   Consumption GL 12345678           6 USD          Cost Center ABC123 (This is warehouse cost center)
I am aware that as this is a non valuated material the above entry is not possible. Maybe, I will use BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST for the generating the accounting document when the goods are issued from warehosue to production center.
My question is how can i get the moving average price.
Regards
Chokkalingam Pillai

you can have an accounting view for non-valuated materials, this helps for example with purchase requisitions as they could take the valuation price from the material master and the user does not need to enter a valuation manually.
But the material master moving average price cannot be calculated and updated automatically, as it is not foreseen in any standard program to do this for cost center procurement, since SAP only calculates a MAP for valuated stocks.
Further it is not logical to issue non-valuated stock valuated (even with a different price) from cost center to cost center.
It looks like you want to have a kind of internal billing for warehouse services, as you end up with a negative amount in the warehouse cost center which is then the profit.
Why don't you just create a report to run at the end of the month, listing all goods issue movements with their cost centers and taking the price from last PO (or from material master if you decide to maintain it manually) and use this for a manual cost center posting in CO module

Purchase Requisition for non valuated material

Hi,
We have defined a material as non valuated in ECC, we are doing planning vfor the material in APO and generating Purchase Requisition on vendor for the material. Now the issue is that we are not able to CIF the Purchase requisition to ECC and system is giving account assignment error.
For the same plant vendor locatio n combination Purchase requisition is getting CIFed for valuated material.
Canm anyone please help regarvding how to CIF purchase requistion for non valuated material from APO to ECC.
Thanks & Regards,
Sanjog Mi shrikotkar

Hi Sanjog
Agreed : the material is non valuated so we have not extended accounting view for the material, also we cannot allow financial posting for non valuated material.
But an accounting view is required for a material, no matter whether it is a valuated or a non valuated material
I am sorry about not being able to transmit any positive reply to you, i am not aware of other way of getting it

Stock Transport Order for non valuated material

Hello,
I am creating a Stock Transport Order for non-valuated material. I posted GI for STO mvt 351 and it decreases stock from issuing Storage Location, however when I am posting GR for STO mvt 101 the Storage Location field is not there in MIGO and after posting the quantity does not increase in receiving Storage Location which is not expected. Note that both issuing and receiving Plants are the same and the material type has quantity update in the Plant.
Also in the STO the system is asking for Account Assignment Category which I do not need because there are no transportation costs. Can i overcome that ?
Thanks,
Wael

Hi,
The quantity update is set for the material type in the plant as I mentioned. Also since both issuing and receiving plants are identical and there is stock in the issuing SLoc this means quantity update is active.
Thanks
