Inventory problem for material with valuation category X

Hi!
During annual inventory, I found material in a storage location that doesn't exist in SAP as material master.
I have created the material, managed in batches and valuation category X.
I have created a batch with MSC1N and now I am trying to create an inventory document to put this material on stock; but when I am trying to create the inventory document with MI01 or MI31, the system is telling me :
"Batch 0000043183 does not contain a valuation type
Message no. M7045
Diagnosis
The material is subject to split valuation, but the batch entered has not been assigned to a valuation type.
System Response
Any transaction/event that has the effect of changing the stock balance will be rejected for this batch.
Procedure
Contact your system administrator.
If you are authorized to do so, do you wish to check the valuation category in the material master record?
Do you want to display the batch?"
Now, I don't know exactly what can I do to be able to create the inventory document.
Any ideas.....
Thanks

Since you have created a material master with valuation category that means the system is taking that material either as split valuated or to-be split valuated...the reason of this error you will find out if you go to MSC2N with material-batch & plant you will find in the Basic data 1 tab that Valuation type field is mandatory...so either you have to split valuate the item further and then enter the same valuation type in MSC2N or otherwise if you not still done any transaction with the material master then remove the valuation category from the material master

Intercompany transfer for material with item category Erla

Hi,
I have a typical requirement.
I am creating a value pack(finish good) with item category mainatined as ERLA(while mat master creation) which consistes of 2 items.
I have maintained a BOM for this value pack(finished material).
Since ERLA is maintained,I can explode BOM in Sales Order creation(correct me if I am wrong)
This is okay for sales cycle.
I have following requirement
I want to do a Intecompany stock transfer of this value pack(i.e. finish good) with doc type NB.
The problem in this is that it gives error while creating outbound delivery stating some entries missing in table (do not exactly remember)for NLCC/DOGN.. something like that.
If anyone has done this type of scenario earlier then request you to send me the configuration settings required to be done in terms of Item category/Delievry combination etc etc .
This is quite urgent for me.
If there is any different way to map this Intecompany Stock Transfer of Material (with Item category maintained as ERLA) then please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
You maintain "Item category group" NORM in the Sales org 2 tab, this is used for sales organisation and distribution channel for Outboumd delivery.
The "General Item category group" does not refer to the Sales organisation and distribution channel, this is used for Inbound delivery.
In can create the material master in MM01, specify the "Material type" and "Industry sector" .
For, Item category determination in VOV4, you need to assign like this as below,
Sales doc type + Item category group + usage + Item category of higher level item = Item category.
Item category determination for free item,
OR + NORM + FREE + TAN = TANN.
As beacuse you are giving the normal material as free, therefore you must give the indication to the system to use it as free material by specifying the usage as "FREE".

Material master table for finding out valuation category and valuation type

Hi,
I have a material XYZ for which a valuation category 'H' is assigned. Now I need to create a valuation type for that.
Question - I want to find out for the same plant & st location which are the other materials with valuation category H, and what are the valuation types used.
I checked in mara, mard, mbew etc but of no use.
Which table can i get the data ?

hi,
As the valuation details are saved and are based on the material, you can see the details of valuation type in MBEW table...and field as BWTAR
For valuation catagory, you can see the table MARC...field as BWTTY...
If want the valuation type details for both plant and storage location, you shd check the GR table ie. MSEG where you will get the valuation type ....
hope its enough to retrieve the data..

Split valuation for material with two different price indicator S and V

Hello Gurus,
Is it possible to maintain split valuation for same material with two different price indicator S and V.
For Ex. Material A is manufactured can be manufactured in house , procured from outside vendor and can be purchased from subcontracting vendor by providing raw material.
We want to keep Price control V for same material " A" which is procured from outside vendor.
And price control S for inhouse produced same material " A".
Besically this material is semifinished and having BOM for subcontracting.
Please advice.

Hi
When the material is split valuated, you maintain the accounting view for the material 1st with valuation category, here the price control should be V.
When you will extend the material to valuation type "Inhouse mfgd" maintain the price control as S, for valuation type "Procured form outside vendor" maintain it as V.

Extend Material to another plant with Valuation CAtegory X

Hi All,
I have a Material in Plant 1, with Valuation Category H.
I want to extend this material to Plant 2 with Valuation Category 'X' (Auto Batch)
Its not accepting X, any other entry would be possible
It says "With Single batch valuation, batch management must be defined. The following plants have no batch management requirement: Plant 1"
If i activate batch management in Plant 2, it is working.....but i dont want Batch management for this material.
How do i solve this.
Pls help.
Thanks

Hi,
We can not remove Batch management thru MM02, once it is set in MM01. Its a gray field.
can any one let me know whats the reason for not accepting valuation category x while extending the material?

Error:storage location for material's valuation type does not exit

create physical inventory document for material , it has a error message "Storage location X105 for material 0004AA00 plant 1151 valuation type **** does not exist", MMSC is ok, so i don't know what question?

Hi Yan,
If no previous goods movements have been posted yet for the combination of the relevant material, plant, storage location and valuation type the physical inventory cannot be done.
The table MCHB is used for both batch managed materials and materials with split valuation. You can only create a physical inventory document for a material with   split valuation when both, a MARD and a MCHB segment are available.
When you create a valuation type in the material master, only the table MBEW is updated - an entry is not created in the table MCHB. This is needed however to perform a physical inventory for this material.
This MCHB segment is created when you perform a goods receipt for the material, but (like with batches) a physical inventory posting cannot   create this entry in the table.
You will need to create a material posting for these materials if you wish to create a physical inventory for them. On the other hand, please,    consider that it is not necessary to create a physical inventory for those materials which have not suffered any goods movement at all.
If you want to make a physical inventory for a material valuated separately, you have to proceed as follows:
- make a goods receipt (561)==> then the stock segment will be created
- make the reversal of the goods receipt
- make the inventory.
Hope this can help

Split valuation-Price control with valuation category

Hi,
While creating halb material with valuation catergory Y,System select price control V,
I wish,it should be S, as after cost run value updated with standard price.

Hi,
I am not sure about moving thread to other forum since I don't find any such option in our purview. You can check the option to contact moderator who has right to do the same.
Also you can try with creating new thread in MM forum and close this thread here in PP forum thereby you can avoid duplication.

Error with Valuation Category in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master

Dear All,
I have created plant and also activated the "Split Activation" for that plant through SPRO-MM-Valuation & A/c Assignment ---Split valuation.
But when i Extend the material form another plant the "Valuation Category" field in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master becomes INACTIVE (i.e. it becomes gray). Where as for the plant (from which i am copying the material) the same field is ACTIVE.
Please suggest me what might be the error.
I have checked the setting for both the plants i.e. in which it is working and the other where it is not working. The settings are same.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shailendra
If this is for a single material.
I hope u r using MM01 only by giving reference of existing mat., in this case, at this stage only you have to maintain Valuation Category.
Once the material is created, the field will become gray.
This is what I know. If still, there is any way to make this field active, if u come to know, please let me know too.

Material Master - Valuation Category

Dear Expert,
How to activate valuation category field in material master - tabs accounting1- so we can chose any value which propused by SAP ?
Thxs.
Rgds,
Ely

Hi,
Check no stock and PO were created for that material. It is only possible to change a material (valuation category) if no stock and PO were created. So it is not something that get changed at will. It needs to be decided on creation of material in MM01 t.code
Check this Link for details for details:
http://www.sap123.com/showthread.php?t=29
Note:
The Split Valuation settings are as follow:
1.SPRO> MM>VALN AND ACC ASSIGNMENT> SPLIT VALUATION> Acitvate Split Valuation
2.SPRO> MM>VALN AND ACC ASSIGNMENT> SPLIT VALUATION> Configure Split Valuation
Click on Golbal type: create your own valuation types as Type 1, Type 2 etc
Click on Global categories:create your own Valuation Category as Type(T) and
Activate all valuation types(Type1, Type2 ) for your category(T)
Goto MM01, enter materialu2026u2026u2026u20261st enter valuation category and save & again enter MM01 enter the Valuation type as Type 1 and maintain price for it and repeat the same for all the Types.
Follow following process to maintain the material master.
Step_>1:
Create material with T.Code. MM01 and enter all the required data in respective field. in particular go to "Accounting" view and Enter valuation category and save the material.
With this step you have maintained the Valuation category
Step_>2:
Now to maintain Valuation type go to change material T. Code MM02
Once again here you while entering Plant and storage location "Valuation type" field will come, here you enter first valuation type and go to Accounting view and Maintain relevant Valuation class. Save this data.
Once again you repeat the Step two and here you enter another valuation type and respective valuation class. With this step you have maintained the valuation type.
When you create a PO for split valuated material it will ask for valuation type and you can enter your required valuation type and save.

Production costs for material with price control V

Dear all,
Can anyone pls tell me, how will the costing occur for a material produced in-house and having price control 'V' ? I am not able to see the target costs.
Also kindly tell me the settings to be done in CO, like target cost version, valuation variant, costing variant, etc.
Thank you,
Shrenik

Rather than giving my own versions I have compiled here SAP inputs. Pl let me know if you require any clarifications:
Costing variant has the following components:
<b>Define Costing Types
Define Valuation Variants
Define Date Control
Define Quantity Structure Control
Define Transfer Strategy
Define Reference Variants</b>
<u>Costing type:</u>
In the costing type, you define the purpose of a material cost estimate by specifying, for example, which field in the material master record the costing results can be transferred to:
Update Cost Estimate
Standard price Standard cost estimate (01)
Tax-based price Inventory cost estimate
Commercial price Inventory cost estimate
Price other than std price Modified standard cost estimate or
current cost estimate
No update Any cost estimate
Define Valuation Variants:
Define Valuation Variants
Here you create a valuation variant containing the parameters required for valuation of a cost estimate.
You also specify which costing sheet should be used to calculate overhead.
Valuation Strategies
Material valuation
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices from the accounting view or costing view of the material master record to valuate materials. You can also access prices from purchasing info records and condition types.
For material cost estimates, you also specify whether additive costs can be added to the selected price.
With configurable/configured material components and with procurement alternatives, the sequence defined here is ignored if the strategy "price from purchasing info record" was selected, in which case that strategy is always executed first. For more information, refer to the SAP Library in the component Product Cost Planning under Raw Material Costing or Mixed Costing.
Activity Types / Processes
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in activity type planning or actual activity price calculation in Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to valuate the utilized activity types and business processes.
You also specify which plan/actual version is used.
Subcontracting
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record. In purchasing, quota arrangements are used to create a mixed price for materials that are manufactured with external vendors with parts provided by the customer. You can specify whether the quota of the individual vendors that are entered in the source list for the material to be processed should be determined through the planned quota arrangement or the actual quota arrangement.
External processing
Here you define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the purchasing info record or routing operation for valuation of the external activities.
Strategy Sequence
You define the individual valuation methods for the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of the material components you define a strategy sequence that reads the fields of the material master record in a particular sequence such as:
1. Planned price 1
2. Standard price
3. Moving price
The first price that is not zero is used to valuate the material component.
Target versions:
Target cost versions are used in the following ways:
In variance calculation:
To control which variance (total variance, production variances or planning variance) is calculated
To valuate unplanned scrap( scrap variance)
Unplanned scrap is valuated in the period-end closing activities when the variances are calculated. You can specify in a valuation variant for WIP and scrap which cost estimate you want to use to calculate the target costs for the valuation of unplanned scrap. You assign the valuation variant to target cost version 0 if you want to include it in the valuation of scrap.
When you are using a cost object hierarchy with active distribution, you use the target cost version to control which cost estimate the system uses to calculate the target costs, which are used as the basis for determining equivalences for actual cost distribution.
The actual costs collected at the level of the hierarchy are distributed across the orders in accordance with these equivalences. This distribution is proportional to the target costs for the cost element under which the actual costs are written. Actual costs for material costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for the origin group, such as for the material, if you have entered an origin group in the costing view of the material master record and have set the indicator Material origin, for example.
If no target costs were calculated under this cost element, enter a cost element group in the target cost version. The actual costs are distributed in proportion to the target costs for this cost element group. This cost element group should be complete. If costs were updated under a cost element that is not in this cost element group, no distribution is possible.
You can calculate equivalences on the basis of SAP standard target cost versions 0, 1 and 3.
The standard system supplies the following target cost versions:
Target cost version 0 ( total variance)
The amount of the total variance generates a posting in Financial Accounting during settlement.
For this version, select actual costs as the control costs and standard cost estimate as the target costs.
Target cost version 1 ( production variance)
For this version you choose actual costs as the control costs and planned costs as the target costs.
Target cost version 2( planning variance)
With target cost version 2, the costs from the preliminary order cost estimate are interpreted as control costs.
For this version, select planned costs as the control costs and current cost estimate as the target costs. You cannot calculate planning variances for the product cost collector.
Target cost version 3 (production variance of the period)
You compare the planned costs of the period calculated on the basis of an alternative material cost estimate (such as a modified standard cost estimate) with the actual costs of the period on the basis of the yield delivered to stock in the period.
The base quantity for variance calculation is the yield.
For this version, you choose the actual costs as the control costs and the alternative material cost estimate as the target costs. To determine the alternative material cost estimate, enter a costing variant and choose a costing version.
The target cost version specifies which data is to be compared. The target cost version also specifies which variance variant is used and therefore which variance catagories are calculated. You can define a different target cost version for each controlling area

CK40N - Update for material with price control 'V'

i Experts,
When im running standard cost estimate in CK40N, say for material types semi finished. The components that is raw materials of the SFG is also updated with the price, meaning for a raw material with price control 'V' has a price of 10, after
releasing the cost estimate for the SFG, when i look into the material master of raw material, the price of 10 is also updated
in the standard price.
I am not sure why this is happening, i believe it should not happen. Because in the valuation variant, if i give the strategy as standard price, this price is easily picked up. And more over with price control 'V', i can change the standard price. Can anybody throw some light on this.
Best regards
gj

Hi Rakesh,
Thanks for the information. But i do agree even during release there is no impact on the inventory. But in my cost variant, say in PPC1, if i give the strategy say 1. standard price 2. moving average price, during cost estimate run, its going to take the standard price for the material irrespective of the price derived automatically for moving average price. For eg in our case for raw material with price control 'V' after sce run if the standard price is 10 and moving average price is 14, as per strategy of PPC1 above its going to take 10 and not 14.
Is there any other way to avoid this. Please correct me if i had went wrong somewhere.
Best regards
gj

Error while creating sales order for material with another DIVISION

Hello Friends,
I have a problem with my sales order creation.
I have defined a new sales area 0010 / 10 / 01. I have the sales order type assigned to this sales area. (in VOV8 for the sales order type, in the 'General Control' the 'item division' is flagged.
Now, I have created the sold to party XYZ with all the partner functions defaulted same as the sold to party for the sales area 0010 / 10 / 01.
NOW, I have the material ABC with the DIVISION 10 in the basic data. I have extended the material to my sales org & dist. channel & plant.
Now, while creating the sales order for my sales area 0010 / 10 / 01 , I enter the sold to party XYZ - it is OK. But when I enter the material ABC, I get the error - "SHIP TO PARTY IS NOT DEFINED FOR SALES AREA 0010 / 10 / 10"
Please help to resolve the issue.
Edited by: Vivek on Aug 13, 2009 9:04 AM

Hi
Common division for Material Master data will not work
Because in the material master Division is a field not an organizational unit
Means when you create MMR you will give sales org, DC, Plant as organizational units and then enter but not division
Division is a field maintained in basic data and sales org data 1
This is the reason in t code you will find in t code VOR2 Common division only customer and conditions but not materials
But in t code VOR1 Common DC ,customer conditions and materials all there are available (you can check these t codes)
Coming to your issue Item div is clecked in your order type
This means the division in MMR has the priority or control for that order type
Your header division is 01 ( taken from customers sales area) and item division is 10 (taken from MMR as per your post)
So it differs
To process this order with Item div is clecked in your order type you need to extend your Sold to party ABC to the sales area 0010/10/10 (the sales area where the division of the material falls)
or alternatively
There should be a customer say DEF created in sales area 0010/10/10 who will be a ship to party ( your error is also the same)
for your ABC that is sold to party in sales area 0010/10/01 where the order is registered
Hope yopu are getting it
ABC in sales area 0010/10/01 will have or should have ship to paty DEF in sales area 0010/10/10
or
ABC should operate in in sales area 0010/10/10 too
If item division is not ticked then these are not necessary as the header division 01 will be valid for all items and syatem will not look MMR at all for division

CRM material master valuation category

hi,
I replicated material master data from ERP to CRM. 10000016 Material has 3 valuation category in ERP. But valuation category in the financial 1 tab doesn't replicate to CRM. While I create service order with 10000016 material , how can I know which valuation category is used?
i would appreciate you help.
thanking you
Regards

Hi,
It's solved.
Unfortunately you will have to add the field in CRM as it is not
contained in standard system.
Also you add the field in CRM and then do the mapping to the same field
in R/3. You can use the data exchange BADI to do this CRM_DATAEXCHG_BADIThis is your own responsibility
however.
