Changeing Valuation class-what happens to deleted open docs.

Hello,
we are planning to change the valuation class for material. In order to change the class we would have to delete all open items that trace back to the material (PO, GR, IR). I run me2m to identify the open documents for that material.
My issue is when I reverse or delete the IR, GR, and PO what happens to the those documents.? We have documents that go back to 2007.
Do we have to recreate the PO, GR, IR after we change the class.?What are the long term effects when doing this change (Audit)?
Please advise.
Thanks.

You don't need to worry about old documents as long as they are not open.
You just need to invoice out all the open GRs or cancel all those GRs. In case of POs, you have to ensure the GR qty is equal to IR qty for each PO line, then you can mark the line as deleted so that the system will allow you to change the val. class. You also need to make the stock to zero.
Once val. Class is changed, you can undo all the above.

Cannot change Valuation Class although no Open-PO

Dear Gurus,
I try to change Valuation Class in Material Master but I cannot after I created PO and still after MIGO and MIRO.
We are using PS and Material Master is set as below;
Ind./Coll in MPR4 = 1
Since requirement comes from PS, PO is created with account assignment category Q.
Once we execute MIGO and MIRO for the PO, still we cannot change Valuation Class.
If you know the way to change Valuation Class, would you tell me how?
Best Regards,

Hi,
The change of the valuation class will impact on ML (material ledger), if the ML
is active. Is ML active on your system?
The note 575632 explains partly the effects on CCS. The
valuation class is used to allocate the plan costs to the related cost
element. Therefore, it is advisable to create new materials instead of
changing the valuation class. This would be straight forward and easy to
follow-up. The CCS does not a change history. Consequently, the previous
periods can not be explained with current CCS. That may lead
inconsistencies under circumtances. It is up to your decision. You can
change, test the impact and decide on. The proposed solution of SAP
would be avoiding that change and creating new materials.
When you try to change the valuation class, what is the details of the
error?
In order to change valuation class in the material master, you have to
make sure that none of the following exist in you system:
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
The system checks the stocks (storage loc. stocks and special
stocks) of the same period in which the valuation class will be changed.
If the valuation class of current period will changed, check in
transaction code MMBE for zero stocks, or in SE16: MARD/MBEW;
MCHB/MKOL/MSKA/MSKU/MSLB/MSPR.
The system checks all dependant purchase documents without delete flag
and error M3368 occurs when it finds at least one non deleted po item
(not only when stocks exist).
1. First be sure that no stocks exist in current AND previous period!
   see note 30656, with an example how to get zero stocks.
2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all po items of the related material.
   If you found items with LOEKZ <> 'L', you have to delete them in ME22
3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant.
   If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible.
   You have to these production order(s) !
These hard restrictions are necessary as inconsistencies in account
assignment will follow after change of val.class, when proceeding
follow up functions of a PO item before and after changing valuation
class. Also attached is 146241.
In customizing for the Material Master, you can switch the check for
open purchase orders and/or for production orders to a warning.
You do this in Define Attributes of System Messages by assigning
the message type Warning to message MM 326 and/or MM 327 respectively.
Please refer to note 160970 for more information.
I hope this will help you in resolving the reported issue.

HT4722 What happens if you opened FCP 7 before Motion 4? What should I do if I did it this way?

What happens if you opened FCP 7 before Motion 4? What should I do if I did it this way?

Hi Nick, thanks for responding. Sorry I wasn't clear.
What I want to figure out is regarding FCP X and FCP Studio in the same machine.
I installed FCP X. Moved the FCP X's applications into a folder. I moved the FCP Studio Apps out to the root directory of my applications folder.
But what I didn't do, is open Motion 4, before opening any other application form FCP Studio. (This is what Apple recommends to do)
Now every time I want to open a motion 4 file directly from FCP 7, the new motion 5 opens. I'd have to modify files individually to "open with" motion 4.
I am working in a school setting, (public computer) so I want to leave it easy for users...
Thanks!!

Change of Material Valuation Class - What Approach to Consider?

Dear SAP Expert ...
In OSS notes # 160970, it mentions that starting from release 4.6B we
can use Customizing Transaction OMT4 (Change System Message) to change
corresponding check from error to warning. With this function, the
system won't check if there are existing document (e.g. = PO, SO,
etc.) for respective materials (which we want to change the valuation
class from), thus we only deals with stock on-hand.
However, the same notes also recommend the customer need to ensure that from
organizational point of view there are no inconsistency occured after the change of valuation class.
We're doing investigation of the automatic account determination which
is driven by some valuation class and ensure that it won't introduce
any inconsistency in Financial Statement (Balance Sheet and Income
Statement).
Basically there are 2 (two) aspects we need to adjust:
(1) Make sure there are no stock available for respective materials during the change
(2) Adjust the error to warning message for system message using OMT4, thus the system won't check any existing document (so we don't have to delete thousands of existing document)
We'd like to clarify with you (if similar experience available before) if the following approach we take has been according to the standard practise and NO
inconsistency will ever occur in the future.
The approach we take is as follows:
(1) Identify the FROM valuation class and TO valuation class
(2) Identify automatic account determination from each FROM an TO
valuation class (IMG path = OMWB)
(3) Determine the G/L account used when the changes happen, e.g. :
    Consignment Expense/Revenu (AKO)
    Expense/Revenue from Stock Transfer (AUM)
    Change in Inventory Account (BSV)
    Materials Management Small Difference (DIF)
    External Activities (FRL)
    Incidental Cost of External Activities (FRN)
    Purchase Offsetting Account (FKG)
    Purchasing Freight Account (FRE)
    Materials Management Exchange Rate Diff (KDM)
    MM exchange rate rounding differences (KDR)
    Gain/Loss from Revaluation (UMB)
(4) Determine the implication of (different) G/L account posting to the Balance
Sheet & Income Statement reporting
We'd like to say huge thanks in advance for any input or advise.

Alvon Sibarani

Gopala ...
That's an interesting approach you provided below. Really appreciate for the input.
Just for your background:
1. Our company is also using global instance system (located in US), where all business unit around the globe connects to.
2. With global instance, we have to standardize majority of the system setting & configuration into a common design.
3. The common design includes the valuation grouping code, which we use single code (e.g. = ABCD)
4. I supposed the single valuation grouping code is introduced for ease in corporate reporting tree.
5. The issues we experience on the valuation class is basically happen for only 1 business unit (in China)
6. Adjusting the valuation grouping code might solve the 1 business unit issue, while on the other hand we must also consult with the global finance group on the implication to the corporate reporting tree with introduction of the new valuation grouping code (e.g. = WZYX)
Again that's a valueable input we have here and we'd like to discuss it first with the finance group on the implication. I personnaly doubt the global finance will agree with such approach, not to mention it approaching the year end thus no "major" modification be introduce.

Change Valuation class

We have a need to change the valuation class of the material master with tcode MM02, and the material has a lot of open Purchase Orders and Sales orders, and many batches created for this material. This material use by many countries, and we cannot replace it with a new material number for my plant.
System issue message Valaution class cannot be changed because of a lot of open doc and batches exists, in this situation how to change the Valuaiton class, it will be quite impossible to delete all those open doc and batches. ?? What can we do in order to change the valuaiton class of the material master MM02.??

Hi,
You have to eliminate those problems that is reported by SAP.
E.g.:
- no stock in current and previous period has to exist (eliminate stock: MB1A201posting date in the past; reset stock level: MB1A+202)
- transactional data has to be deleted
- if there are goods movement in current period you have to cancel all of them or you have to wait till the first day of the next period
If you want to change valuation category as well, you have to archive batch master records.
This is not an easy thing to do, you may face several difficulties...
Mass transaction can be used if you have several transactional data to delete (check transaction MASS)
You can search for threads on this forum or for OSS notes too.

Changing Valuation Class of Material

I want to change the valuation class of a material, if i do, what effect will it have on open PO's and schedule agreements. How do I change it if there are open PO's for this material.
Thank you.

You can chage the valuation class if no stock or no document exist for that material. Actually valuation class is assigned with the GL with the help of material type. So if at all you want to change the valuation class make sure that no document or stock exist for the PO moreover you have to follow the following steps for that
go to MM02 -- enter material --- select the view accounting 1 then click on previous per/year and their make the necessary change to change the valuation class for the material
Hope this will help you

Changing Valuation Class

Hi,
we have a material which we need to change the valuation class ASAP. when trying to change it shows a created STO (Stock transport Order) and have transferred materials against that STO using Mvt.type 351.
When trying to cancel this transfer document, it cannot be done because it is posted for last period which is already closed(using MMPV).
Is there a way to change the val. Class of the material.
Pls advice .
Cheers
Anushka

Hi,
To Change the Valuation class of the material, first of all you need to do following-
1. GR for full open quantity is done.
2. LIV is done for planned delivery cost as well as goods and services.
3. Full Vendor settlement is done both for Goods as well as delivery cost vendors.
4. All stocks are consumed and there is no stock balance.
Once the valuation class is changed, during G/L account determination it will determine the new G/L account instead of the old one.
In case you still want to have some posting on the basis of the previous G/L account, you need to do the same based on manual Journal Vouchers.
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. For more see note 30656 & 146241
[Set your stock to u20180u2019 both in previous and in current period. (use MB1A201 with posting date in the previous period to eliminate your stock; via MB1A202 you can reset your stock level after the material master change) .If you've had material movements in this period for your material it may be very difficult to set the stock to u20180u2019 because you should cancel all goods movements. In this case you'd better wait till the end of the month: set the stock to u20180u2019 on the last day of May > change on first day of June > reset stock level on the first day of June]

What happens to the open item in bsid table when it is cleared

hi experts,
i have a doubt about open and cleared items of accounting documents. as we know open items of customers are stored in bsid and cleared ones in bsad. For suupose, an open item is closed ina particular period then what happened to the entry in bsid and bsad table. an entry regarding is stored in bsad (cleared),and what happens to the entry in bsid, still it will be there or removed from it.

Hi,
When ever we clear the document(Complete payment) that document will be moved to BSAD table. Other wise it will remain in BSID.
If u are making partial payment then all the partial payment documents along with original document will be stored in BSID till u made the complete payment for that invoice.
Assumption is u have to give all partial payment documents made for particular invoice item while u are making complete payment in F-28 transaction. So that these partail payment documents will also be cleared while making complete payment and moved to BSAD table.
This trasaction can be used for both partial and complete payments.
Irrespective of complete or partial payments made all the documents will remain stored in BKPF and BSEG tables.
BSID and BSAD are index tables to address performance issues with BKPF and BSEG tables.
So all open and cleared documents will be there in BKPF and BSEG tables.
All cleared documents will be there in BSAD table.
Alll open documents will be there in BSID table.
Hope it is clear.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Camera profiles. /what happens when deleted

Hello.
if you use the camera profiles (beta) that can be downloaded. What happens to photos that used such a profile in develop, if the profile where to be removed.
Like if you need to re-install LR, buy a new computer, an updated profile (non beta. etc etc.
i find the D2X mode3 (set down brightness a little and change green hue a bit) give good match to Capture NX style from my Nikon D50.
/Walker

In the absence of your requested profile for an image, LR will use the first available profile. It's a current UI glitch that causes LR to show the blank Profile popup menu, but in fact it is using a profile specific to your camera (you'd know for sure if it wasn't: colors wouldn't be remotely close).
We plan to provide a smooth migration path for those who want to upgrade from beta profiles to final profiles once they're ready.

What happens to deleted junk mail?

I've a few rules set up to delete junk mail - such as, "if body contains V1agra - delete message", and the junk mail filter is in training mode. Somehow at times I've found that it's deleted messages that it shouldn't have - especially if there's PDFs attached.
I only just now picked up my mail and saw an incoming message with a subject header that would NOT be junk mail, however the email didn't appear in my inbox, nor the junk folder - nor the trash but has been deleted. Oh yeah - my email is set to delete messages from the server…
So question is - what happens to these emails. Are they stored somewhere temporarily that they can be retrieved from? Or is this lost for good? (I've not and WILL not shut down mail yet!)
I know it's a hard task for any piece of software - but mails junk mail filtering is a pointless joke.
Message was edited by: Steven Reid

Rather than deleting it in rules, move the message to the trash, or, better, the junk mailbox. That way you still have whatever time lapse you have specified Mailbox Behaviours for the account to check on incorrect interpretation.
Why bother with your own rules? You will find it hard to do better than the automatic junk filtering.

Changing Apple ID - what happens to apps?

We want to change our Apple ID on one of our devices - my boss is passing one of his iPads to his kids - to ensure that the apps are not synced between the bosses main device and the children's device.
What happens to the apps currently on the device? He bought some apps specifically for the kids using the shared ID, and he's wondering if he'll have to make another purchase.

Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them. If you change Apple ID's, you will have to purchase them again with the new ID.
The apps will remain on the iPad and you can continue to use them, but if you want to update them, you will have to use the old ID for that.
I don't know of that answers your question, because I don't get the correlation between what "we are changing an Apple ID on one of our devices" and "the boss is giving one of the iPads to his kids". I must be missing something in your explanation.

If I change Apple ID what happens

My wife and I both have iPhones; hers is a 4 and mine is a 4s and we both have our own Apple IDs. If we change her ID to match mine
1. What happens to the apps she has purchased under her current ID?
2. Will her screens automatically show just her cuurent aps or will they be cluttered (her words) with my dozens of apps?

1. will be lost
2.will be your apps
3. you will never be able to imessage or facetime eachother and she will get your imessages
