BDC - Create Material for Split Valuation

Hi,
Does anyone have BDC for Material Master creation with reference material from another plant.
Regards
Gokul

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)

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

    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).

  • Different price for split valuation

    hai
    for split valuation material shal we define different pricing?
    for ex :
    materail - Pen
    we split the category is "colour "
    the valuation type is red , blue ,black (with different prices)
    red - 12 Rs
    blue -15 Rs
    black -10 Rs
    i know that we can maintain in material master record .
    But we need while doing THE P.O for red colour pen the price must be Automatically taken from the system as 12 Rs,
    and same as blue colour pen as 15 Rs , and for black colour pen as 10 Rs.
    i searched in "INFO RECORD" .we can only define the "valuation type " .we cant able to dife different pricing for split valuation material in info record
    where we have to maintain the different pricing for valuation material .kindly explain.

  • 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.

  • Valuation Category for Split Valuation

    Hi,
    We are moving to Split Valuation and the necessary configuration like valuation category ('H') and valuation types are activated for the plant. But while creating a new material for this plant, i couldn't maintain the field 'Valuation Category' and system is giving a default 'blank' for this field.
    Could you please let me know if i'm missing any config.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Ganesh Perumalla

    Hi,
    Thanks for your advice.
    I understand that while creating new material, the valuation category has to be entered. And then valuation types can be created with different prices.
    But i couldn't enter the valuation category initially, as a result i cann't add any valuation types for the material. While creating material, the field 'valuation category' is blank and greyed, so i guess it is being defalulted from somewhere.
    The field group (OMSR) defined for the material type can sometimes influence field values, but i'm not sure. Do you have any idea?

    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..

  • 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.

    Hi,
    I am not sure what you mean exactly.
    But you would need to have the valuation category and all of the valuation types created in config in advance.
    Then you can allocate the appropriate valuation category to the material (accounting view) (as long as no stock or open POs etc. exist).
    then you can create your additional accounting views (one for each valuation type that you want to use).

  • Valuation strategy for Split Valuation.

    Dear SAP Experts,
    We have split valuation for some of the raw materials.
    Whaile running Std Cost estimate system gives following errors even if we have maintained the price under valuation type.
    CK465: No price could be determined
    CK240: Cost component split costed with value of zero
    CK168: Cost estimate for material is Incorrect.
    In Valuation varriant we have strategy 7 & 4 (ie price control as per material master & as per planned price). We dont want maintain any planned price.
    I would like to know is there any Standard Valuation strategy exist in the valuation variant.
    Best Regards
    Nikhil

    If you have maintained price at valuation type level then to consider them you will have to activate mixed costing for costing type and valuation variant you are using in configuration. You will also need to create a qty structure type for this. Once this is done, you will have to maintain procurement alternatives ( T code CK91N - process category BBV) and maintain mixing ratio (CK94). This will ensure correct costing.
    Assign points, if useful.

    HI
    I have changed the material price for the material whcih are maintained with split valuation ie. in MR21 i could able to change the price for valuation types only.. i'm not able to change the main material price , its asking to enter the val type?? how to change the the price ? 
    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"

    Hi
    The price control at the plant level will always be V,where at the valuation type level either V or S can be maintianed.It is not recommeneded to ignore the valuation class at the plalnt level in case of split valuation because if you are going for costing run then this needs to be maintained.becoz cost of a material procured needs to be determined at plant level
