No field for valuation type in MFBF in final backflushing

Hi PP Gurus,
I am doing final backflushing through MFBF in ECC 6.00, unfortunately there is no option for filling the valuation type for the header material. The header is batch managed and split valuated.
SAP note 759916 and 925464 appliedfor this. Still we are getting error message M7 044(Choose a valuation type).
Can you tell me the solution for this?
Thanks in advance.

Ashok,
Batch Number field represents "Valuation type" incase the material is not batch managed. Incase it is batch managed and batch valuated, both are same.
So in MFBF you enter the valuation type in the Batch field and perform backflush.

Valuation Type in MFBF

Dear Experts,
We have split valuation activated for a material. This material is not batch managed.
When i try to backflush this material in MFBF Make-To-Stock screen, system asks " Valuation Type" and there is no field in MFBF to enter valuation type.
Please advise,
Thanks, Ashok

Hi below you can see the whole topic of split valuation,
there you can find definition and use of Val type, Category, and Class.
Hope you have gathered lot more information on this topic.
Please can you close the thread?
SAP Split Valuation for Materials
The SAP R/3 System allows you to valuate stocks of a material either together or separately, that is, according to different valuation criteria. Split valuation is necessary if, for example:
1. Stock from in-house production has a different valuation price than externally procured stock.
2. Stock obtained from one manufacturer is valuated at a different price than stock obtained from another manufacturer.
3. Different batch stocks of a material have different valuation prices.
4. Value damaged and repair part differently from a new part.
To used split valuation, you have to activate it using 'OMW0'.
To change split material valuation once it has been set, you must
1. first post out all stocks (for example, to a cost center or with movement type 562)
2. then change the control parameters
3. if necessary, change the automatic account determination
4. finally post the stocks back in again
In split valuation, you can distinguish between partial stocks of a material according to certain criteria and valuate them separately.
The material stock is divided according to valuation category and valuation type.
The valuation category determines how the partial stocks are divided, that is, according to which criteria.
The valuation type describes the characteristics of the individual stocks.
With the function "Setting" you can determine:
which valuation categories exist in your company (global categories)
which valuation types exist in your company (global types)
which valuation types belong to which valuation category
which valuation categories exist in a valuation area (local categories)
Your entries are only relevant if you set split valuation as active in the function "Global settings".
In the standard SAP R/3 System, the following valuation categories are default settings :
B procurement type
with the valuation types:
"EIGEN" for in-house production
"FREMD" for external procurement
H Origin
X automatic valuation (only for batch)
To select split valuation ('OMWC'), proceed as follows:
1. Determine the valuation categories and valuation types that are allowed for all valuation areas:
    global valuation categories via menu "Goto --> Global Categories"
    global valuation types via menu "Goto --> Global Types"
2. Allocate the valuation types to the valuation categories.
     a) Select "Goto --> Global Categories".
     b) Position the cursor on a valuation category and select
        "Goto --> Global Categories --> Assignments --> 'Types->Category'".
     c) Activate the valuation types you want.
3. Determine the local valuation categories for each valuation area.
     a) Select "Goto --> Local definitions".
     b) Position the cursor on a valuation area and select
         "Goto --> Local Definitions --> Allocate Categoires->Org.units (button Cats->(OU)".
         You obtain a list of the global valuation categories.
     c) Activate the categories to be used in this valuation area.
         The system creates the local valuation types based on the allocations under point 2.
         Only now can you create a master record with split valuation.
Specifying Split Valuation by creating Material Subject to Split Valuation
1. Create a material master record, selecting the Accounting View 1.
2. Enter your data as required on the Accounting data screen, specifying a valuation category.
     (If you can't find the valuation category field, it might be hidden, use OMSR to define the Field Groups.
      Look for the field MBEW-BWTTY for Valuation category).
3.   Be sure that the price control indicator is V for moving average price and enter a moving average price.
4.   In the case of split valuation, you can create only one valuation header record with price control V because the
      individual stock values are cumulated, and this total value is written to the valuation header record. 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.
5.   Save your data and the system creates the valuation header record.
6.   The initial screen appears.
7.   Extend the material by creating new material master records from the Accounting view 1. For the first material, specify a
      valuation type in the Organizational Levels dialog box and enter the respective accounting data on the data screen.
      Proceed likewise for the other materials, distinguishing between them by 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.
8.   Repeat step seven for every valuation type planned.
You want to valuate the stock of material XYZ that you obtain from manufacturer A in Los Angeles at a different price than the stock you obtain from manufacturer B in Detroit. In this case, the valuation category is H for origin. Your valuation types can be LOS ANGELES and DETROIT.
If a material is subject to split valuation, every quantity (sub-stock) of this material must be assigned to a valuation type (for example, country of origin).
For every valuation type, there are two types of data in the system, as follows:
Valuation data (for example, valuation price, total stock quantity, total stock value), which is defined for every valuation type at valuation-area level and applies to all dependent storage locations.
Stock data, which, like batch data, is managed separately for each storage location. If a material that is subject to split valuation is also subject to management in batches, its stock data is not managed by valuation type, but rather by batch. Every batch is assigned to a valuation type.
The stock quantity, stock value, and valuation price for all valuation types are managed cumulatively at valuation-area level.
Must the Valuation Type Exist Before the First Goods Receipt?
You can post the goods receipt of material of a certain valuation type only if the valuation data for this valuation type already exists, because the system valuates the goods receipt at the price defined in the valuation data. On the other hand, the stock data for the valuation type is created automatically during the first goods receipt into the storage location, if this is defined in Customizing for Inventory Management.
Goods Movements with Materials Subject to Split Valuation
If you want to enter goods movements for materials subject to split valuation, you must enter the valuation type in addition to the material number.
Enter the valuation type in the Batch field for MB01.
In MIGO, there is a valuation type field in Detail data -> Material.

Fields in MIGO - BATCH and Valuation Type

Hi all,
I would like to know the meaning of the following fields in MIGO.
BATCH - Charg
Valuation Type - Bwtar
Which is the impact of each field?
Should they have the same value in TRA MIGO?
Which means that only the BATCH field is entered and the Valuation Type empty?
Thanks you very much!!

valuation type comes into the game If a material is subject to split valuation.
you can for example split the valuation based on origin, e.g. internal produced and external procured.
this is more a financial thing.
the batch is the level to segragate the stock of a material. e.g. each GR can be a new batch. so you can manage the stock by FIFO rules and by shelf life. this is a logistics thing.
Both can be used on their own, or together.
if you want manage your materials by batches, but dont need split valuation, then you only have to take care about batch number, and the valuation type field in the batch record stays empty.
if you manage material by batch and you use split valuation, then the split valuation type is a mandatory field in the batch record and you may have to enter batch and valuation type, but usually the valution type is defaulted from customizing.
The tricky part is if you only use split valuation, because then the valuation type becomes the batch number. this is sometimes a bit confusing.

Valuation type with batch management.

Dear all:
We have created our self valuation category D, without automatic valuation type.
From what we have checked, it is mandatory to enter a valuation type during batch creation with MSC1N. This link between batch master and valuation type is impossible to change.
Our plan was to employ 2 valuation types, independently of the batch used, so that with a STO we could be able to post and outbound movement from valuation type A and a subsequent inbound goods receipt of valuation type B.
That's a problem for us as we use batch numbers to refer to certain material features, and those shouldn't change given the valuation type, so that it is mandatory for us to use the same batch number for both valuation types. Given that the link between batch master and valuation type is unbreakable, this looks not possible.
We already tried to de-activate the valuation type as a required field during the batch creation, but it didn't work as the field still needed an entry during the saving. There are also several error messages that would need to be de-activated (M7043, 06649...)
If we cannot use two valuation types with the same batch, is there any solution we can manage, besides of the duplication of batch numbers?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Jürgen, thanks for your comments.
We have as well the batch management at plant level, but our idea was to use split valuation in order to avoid the use of plant as the minimum valuation level, as this would have further issues regarding the logistic side (we can use the stock determination group to solve this when using split valuation).
So we face the problem that with a given batch number we cannot post movements with two different valuation types.
I'll take a look at the note anyway, thanks for your help.

Batch no. as Valuation type at the time of GR

Hi Friends,
When we are doing GR how to bring Valuation type as batch no. Batch no. will be automatic sequential no.
We activated Split valuation & Batch management.
Shall I know where I need to do customization for this ?
Regards,
Sai Krishna

Hi All,
Thanks for all inputs. I got the answer.
As I told already We did customization for getting continous sequential no. as batch when we are doing GR.
We want to have this batch no. to be automatically entered as valuation type at the time of GR.
This can be done in the following way:
1.Go to OMWC Split valuation customization.
2. While defining Valuation category , pls. select cehck box of "Determine val. type automat."
3. Assign the same to the plant by clicking Click on local definition, select plant & click on (Cat. - OU)

Automatic deletion batch valuation type from PO after cancellation GR

Hi, colleagues
I need your guidance.
The problem is:
We have batch management with different valuation types.(valuation type is connected to batch) In mm03 valuation category is "X".
Process:We make standart Purchase order, then MIGO where we put batch(with automatic valuation type for this batch) then we make cancellation of GR and try to make GR with another batch and valuation type. System gives mistake: m7043.
As I understand, when we made GR firstly, system have written this valuation type into PO and the following GR for this PO can be only with this valuation type.
Have you any ideas how to make automatic! deletion of valuation type from PO after cancellation? Fields batch and valuation type in PO are hidden and users must not change it in PO.
Mabe there are some notes or you can provide some other ideas?
Thanks in advance
Regards

No. In standard, if you will do GR for batch number XXX, then system will not update the same batch number in PO (neither batch field nor valuation type field).
At the time of making PO leave the batch and valuation type field as blank.
Then check. I've checked the scenario. System is allowing to do GR with other batch number.

Batch vs Valuation Type

Hi all,
Can anybody please explain me clear difference between BATCH and VALUATION TYPE in PO? What is the link between them ?
And
what is this Package number in ESLL(Lines of Service Package) table ??
Helpful answers will be certainly rewarded
Thanks & Regards,
V.Raghavendra

as batch is the smallest unit to segregate one material for various reasons, such as quality grade of a production. it can have its own shelf life.
valuation type is a subdivision of a valuation of a material.
this can be by quality:
High quality
Average quality
Inferior quality
or by origin:
domestic
foreign
internal vendor
external vendor
If a material is split valuated but not batch management, then SAP shows the valuation type in the batch number field in the stock overview (that is what is driving many people crazy) SAP even creates a batch record for this valuation type in back ground (can then be seen in tables MCHA/MCH1)
If your material is batch managed and split valuated, then the valuation type is stored within the batch record in an extra field.

Change Valuation Type for Batch (Split valuation)

We have a batch record created automatically during a goods receipt for PO. The Valuation type on the batch record is "New".
I'm trying to change the valuation type to "Trial" having retrieved the record (MSC2N) entering the material number, batch number, plant and storage location.
Having changed the valuation type theres a warning "Change of valuation type - check open process"
After entering through the warning then saving, I hit an error - "please enter stor. location". I already entered the storage location to retrieve the record so it's displayed, and can't see where else to enter it? Can anyone help please?
Thanks in advance

I managed to overcome this error aided by OSS note 215850, by entries i've made in table T156. However theres a new error
"Error 3 in posting for status change" M7 661. OSS note 958105 refers to it, but my settings mirror the note. So stumped as to a resolution
Help anyone?

Error: Batch does not contain a valuation type

Hi,
When I'm trying to do MB1B for the below parameters, I'm getting the error:
Transaction       MB1B

'Batch 'material no' 'plant' 'batch no' does not contain a valuation type. Message no. M7 045
But the batch has a valuation type and the material is assigned a valuation type too.
Can you please giude me to find out why is this behaviour?
Regards
Jag

HI, I've encounter the same problem. But I used the movement type 323 E.
I input the data as below:
material 2000000564
plant S010
storage location 2001
batch 0903011208,
and got the message M7045 saying that Batch 2000000564 S010 0903011208 does not contain a valuation type, but the batch 0903011208 do have a valuation type in it!
When I use movement type 323, there isnt' any error message returned!
so, I guess there is a bug in the program!

I would like to keep price as moving or standard price as amount that I've input when good receipt.
Please kinldy guide me
Thank you

Hi ,
The header material which has valuation category -X must have price control - V .
All other valuation type can have V or S . Since the valuation type is a batch ,system will use the price control from material type .
1. maintain the price control in the materil type in OMS2
2. In the header material along with moving average price maintain standard price also .because if the material type has -V ,it will pick PO price while creating batch/valution type on GR.
if the mateil type has - S ,then it will take the standard price from the materila .So you have to maintain std price in the header material eventhough the material is having price control - V
hope it helps

Valuation Type Check in STOs

In STO creation in ME27 Transaction, the field Valuation Type is mandatory.In availability check, we could able to find the available stock at issuing plant at quantity level. But our requirement is how to find the issuing plant stock at each Valuation type level? Is there any setting in aAvailability Check? or any Standard System message available?
Thanks & Regards.

Hi...
dear frnd the valuation type field is mandatory because the material for which you are creating a STO is split valuated, means in accounting view of the material you have maintained something in the field "Valuation category".
If this is the case, when you received the goods in supplying plant you should have entered valuation type as your batch.
And if the material is batch managed you have to check the valuation type for the batch in which the material stock exist.
Batch can be displayed in T-Code - MSC3N (Tables - MCHA and MCHB) Kindly check the data in both tables.
Hpe this will solve the problem.
