Interesting scenario with batches

Question

Hi friendss,
I have some plants ex. 2221, 2223. they will create PO and do GR .here vendor is also same plant.
for 2221 plant 2221 is the vendor
for 2223 plant 2223 is the vendor.
In both case material is same. but different batches .batch have different characteristics. and prices also different.
Is it possible to create a PO for same plant?
After that they will transfer the stocks to distribution center plant 3333. i have to capture the freight costs here .from this plant they may do sale or transfer to another plant.but material should carry the batch no created in the origin Plant(ex 2221 or 2223) and also create a lot no for 3333 plant for their traceability.
how to map this scenario in sap?? 
Thanks

Yes You can use split valuation. You need to activate split valuation if you requirement to valuate the various stocks separately. That is if your requirement is that stock plant say 2221 should be valuated seprately and 2222 should be valuated separately.
So,
If your requirement is that every batch should be valuated at different price you can use batch valuation that is in material master accounting view slect valuation category as X ( Automatic- Batch)
If your requirement is that from  every plant the material should be valuated at different price and you have seven plants then you can
create in SPRO ( SPRO-Materials Management-->valuation and account assignment --> split valuation)
Create  Category  as say P ( plant)
Define Types as say Plant1, plant2.....
You can go through following links which will guide you for the config if you want to create your own categories and the use.
