Change of Valuation Class for the existing material

Hello,
I am facing the issue while trying to change the valuation class of the existing material.
The material type is 'NLAG' which is non stockable material. However, all the PO are account assigned to the G/L account & cost center. Hence there is no stock of the material exists to any plant/ SLOC.
There is no open PO/ schedule lines/ Production orders are exists for the material. Also there is no stock exists at any plant. Even then system is throwing the message as 'The valuation class cannot be changed' (Message no. M3 368).
After debugging could see that it fetch the PO that are logically closed (has GR, IR, vendor payment has been made).
We do not want to have the split valuation for that material.
The material is in existance for quite a long time, so could you please help me to change the valuation class?
Thanks in advance,
Samip Patil.

Hi Raju,
To resolve SAP error message M3 368 I would suggest that you refer to SAP note number 1967543. This note outlines the issue and a resolution to it:
Please have a look at the description of the error M3 368. This error may occur if one or more of the following already exist for the material:
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
Resolution:
If you have valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period, you will get message "Stocks already exist.". You have to clear all the stocks both in current period and previous period. Please have a look at SAP Note 30656, it shows an example on how to clear the stocks in
previous period. You can use transaction MIGO to execute this step.
If you have open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines, you will get message "Purchase orders already exist.". You can find related purchase orders after you click 'Display Error' button. Please delete them in transaction ME22N.
If you have production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place, you will get message "Production orders already exist.". Please archive these production orders. You need to set deletion flag for these orders firstly and go to SARA, use archiving object PP_ORDER to archive
these orders.
Kind regards,
James

Valuation class in the material master

hi all, we maintain split valuation materials, namely domestic & imported. we are working on project based scenarion planning strategy 21 : MTO/project.
in daily practice user convert unrestricted stock to project stock with 412 Q mvt type before MRP RUN.
but for some when user try to convert stock following error occurs. I check stock available, it is available. but i do not understand why this error comes.
Maintain the valuation class in the material master first
Message no. M7232
Diagnosis
The system found that you have defined your own valuation classes for sales order stock and project stock in Customizing. However, these valuation classes have not been maintained in the material master record for the materials concerned.
Procedure
So that the relevant accounts can be posted upon goods movements, you have to maintain the valuation classes for sales order and project stock in the accounting view of the material master record for the material concerned.
If you have authorization to do so, you can change the material master record.

Hi,
The normal valuation stock refer to relevant table valuation class field MBEW/MBEWH-BKLAS
Special Sales Stock refert to MBEW/MBEWH-EKLAS
Projeck Stock refer to MBEW/MBEWH-QKLAS

Valuation class for imports and domestic material

Hi,
We wanted to hit different GLs for domestic and Imported materials inventory and therefore we have defined two valuation classes for Domestic and Imported material and these valuation classes are attached to respective materials in account view 1.
But now our problem is , we have few materials which are procured from domestic market as well as Aboard market.
Therefore now we are facing problem how to hit correct GLs based on the nature of procurement.
Thx in advance...
Regards
Sandeep marwha

use split valuation , since materail details is a master record we cant dupoicate .
so use split valuation and give a diffrent valuation class which correcponds to a diff gl account .
so when ver u create a Po givethe valuation type also , so that at Gr doing time , the stock will hit that gl act only. other wise will create issue , it will be grayed out while doin Gr .

Change material group for an existing material

Hi all,
What is the steps to change a material group for an existing material?
Is there any impact on the reports if I were to change the material group of an existing material?
Thanks and regards,
JT

Yes, You can change in MM02 and also while changing you will get the folloeing Warning message..
You are changing material group, but material already used by purchasing
     Message no. M3531
Procedure
     When changing the material group of a material that is already being
     used by the purchasing department, you should note that:
     o   The purchasing statistics show how much of a material group has
         already been ordered. Unitl the change is made, the material is
         managed under the old material group and therefore the old material
         group statistics are updated. From the moment the change is made,
         the new material group's statistics are updated.
     o   Some purchase orders may derive from contracts with item categories
         referring to material groups. If this is the case, the material
         cannot be used after the change has been made.
     o   Every purchase requisition is allocated to a release strategy that
         can depend on the material group. A new release strategy may apply
         to a new material group. Purchase requisitions that were created
         before the change are subject to the old strategy; purchase
         requisitions that were created after the change are subject to the
         new strategy.

I have bought an used Iphone 5. I dont have the password for the existing login id of the old owner. How do i use the phone and change the log in id?

Unfortunatly the only way that you can get it off is to get the old user to input the password. You may need to contact that old user and see if he can put the old password in. hope this helps.

Mass change of valuation class

Hi Folks,
We need to change Valution class for almost 150 materials.
I'm referring SAP note:-160970 for this.
So,please guide me from where should I start?
I think I need to first check any open POs or stocks are there or not...right?Anything else?
But,if suppose I found a lot of POs and stocks for this material,then how would I clear this?
What are the transactions for Mass deletion od POs and production orders.
Please assist step by step as this will have huge impact on FI.
Thanks in advance....

Hi
You can change the valuation class of the material if
NO Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
No Open purchase orders or delivery schedule linesn
No Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
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.

Invalid Valuation Class for Plant

Hello,
I'm creating a material using t-code MM01, and when I enter a valuation class in the Accounting 1 view, I get error message ZA 038 "Invalid valuation class for this plant". This valuation class was working before, so I want to look into the configuration to see what may have been changed. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Cynthia

Hi,
the message u got is custom defined message.
The reason for the designing the message may be that the material that u want to create is not to be meant for the plant u used.
i hope this will solve the issue.
Thank You,

Different Valuation Class for Valuation category C1,C2,C3

Hi All,
I created a material with valuation category C. The material had valuation class 3042 which I created as per requirement of client. Now when I am extending the same material for valuation category C1, C2, C3 the system is only allowing me to choose valuation class 3040 which is standard sap valuation class for spare parts. Can anyone suggest if I need to create separate valuation class for C1, C2 & C3. I have split valuation also activated in the system.

Go to MMAM and then give the material and give the new valuation class and execute it. That material have change from old valuation class to new valuation class.
Example: You create material No: 678 under the Finished goods. Finished goods valuation class is 7920 is assigned in Accounting Tab 1. You want to change "678" material to Raw Material.
Go to T.Code : MMAM
Material                                : 678
New Valuation Class             : Raw Material ( Select from F4)
                                               Which Valuation area you want
Old Valuation Class              : Finished goods ( its under gray mode
                                                                          i.e can not change)

Change in valuation class

Hai Friends,
How can i change the valuation class in the material master for specific material types.

Hi,
Valuation classes are already defined by MM people in OMSK based on material types and this valuation classes post the stock value of the material into respective G/L accounts.If you want to change the valuation class go to MM02-->Accounting1 choose the respective valuation class and save.One thing you have to notedown is if you assign in correct valuation class then at the time of stock posting system throw error message that G/L account has not maintained.

Valuation Class not appearing in Material Master (Finished Goods)

Hi Friends,
I am facing problem with Valuation Class not appearing while creation of Material Master especially in Finished Products
when i give the Valuation class it showing the message like below
*Valuation class IBM2 not allowed for material type Finished product*
*Message no. M3180*
*Diagnosis*
*The combination of values you have entered is not defined in the system.*
*Procedure*
*Check your entries, and choose a valid value or combination of values with F4.*
*If you want the value(s) to be defined in the system, contact your systems administrator.*
and When i press F4 in Valuation Class area it is not appearing
Can any one give me the solution
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Go to Transaction Code OMSK. You will find three tabs there.
Go to the second tab i.e, valuation class, note the account category reference assigned to the valuation class "IBM2".
Come out of that screen and access the third tab ie., Material Type/Account Category reference.
Check whether Account category reference related to the valuation class "IBM2" is assigned to ther material type "Finished product" or not.
If not, assign the same. It should work.
Warm regards,

Multiple info records for the same material record in the catalog

Hi Guys,
I have got sort of a puzzle I can not solve at the moment, maybe some one can help me to solve it. The situation in our system landscape is as follows:
Systems:
SRM 5.0 (Classic implementation scenario)
ECC 6.0
SRM-MDM 2.0
PI 2005
Material master is maintained in R/3 and the materials are replicated to SRM. From SRM we replicate all materials to the catalog repository in SRM-MDM.
As the material master in R/3 is vendor independent, the materials replicated to SRM also have no vendor attached. For the first initial material replication from SRM to the catalog SRM-MDM this also means that the products in the main table of the repository, u2018catalog positionsu2019, will not have a vendor or vendor number attached (i.e. no reference to a source of supply).
To assign a source of supply in the repository to a product (record) we will use info records which are replicated from R/3 to SRM-MDM. The mapping for this in the Import Manager can only be based on the product number. As this is the only unique value available which can map a info record to a already existing (but vendor less) ptoduct item in the catalog.
As long as every item in the repository has only one unique info record, meaning one source of supply with a specific price, there is no issue in the above scenario. Based on the product-id, the info record data will be matched with the material item in the catalog.
The issue for me arises when multiple info records exists for the same material. The info records can heave different vendors and different prices. All possible vendors should be available in the catalog for the same material (at least this is the requirement ).
At this point the product-id will no longer be an unique value. Importing the info records will cause problems, as only one material record is available in the repository for the specific product-id (remember that when doing a initial replication of the material master to the catalog, no vendor data is replicated).
Does anyone had this issue before, and knows a solution? Is it for example possible during the import of the info records in the Import manager, to duplicate material records in the destination data, based on the number of info records available in the source data for the same product-id. Or is there an other solution that I am missing?
Your help would be appreciated!
Regards,
Skander
