Material Groups and assocaited valuation class and cost element.

Hi Gurus
Please help
I can see in the config the material group and associated valuation class is for Items without a materisl master, however where is the cost element derived, as I cannot see this data anywhere.
Regards

Hi
For some POs on cost center, (account assignment category K for example), you should have to enter a material group.
In configuration, you will assign a valuation class to these material groups (in spro, tcode OMQW). SAP will derive the cost element by reading table T030 (tcode OBYC) for the given valuation class.

Material type with Different valuation class and gl assignment

Hi Experts
I have several division in Material Type Spare Parts ( like Generator, Electrical, Mechanical). I have to assign different gl account for each material type. We know one material type is assigned only one account category reference. So how we can assign different gl account for same material type using valuation class.

You can assign different G/Ls to different materials by creating valuation classes and assigning different G/Ls to those valuation classes and then assigning those valuation classes to materials.
You cannot assign G/Ls to material type.
Now if you want different G/Ls to be assigned to same material, you need to use split valuation.

Go to transacition OMSF to define the material group
Go to transaciotn OMSK to define the valuation class
here you can define or use existing A/C ategory reference than create valuation calss and assign the A/C category to that valution class and next step you can assign the material type
G/L account you can define in FS00 transaciotn and you can assign them to the valution class in OBYC transcation.

Valuation class and movement type

Hi sirs,
What exactly mean by valuation class and is there any sublink to valuation class and movement type.
BSR

Hi BSR,
Regarding the meaning of valuation class and link between valuation class and movement type, you just have to understand this.
valuation class + movement type = transaction key --> GL account
explanation :
Valuation class
It is a field maintained in the accounting view 1 of Material master. This is nothing but the classification of material like Raw material, Finished goods, WP, stores & spares etc. It is indicated as numerical number.
Movement type
This is a 3 digit numerical code which is used for all material movement in MM module. Say for example movement type 101 is used for Goods receipt from vendor or from production.
Transaction Key
The combination of valuation class and the movement type translates into a transaction key which indicates the type of transaction.
remember:
The combination of Valuation Class + the Movement Type helps in determining the GL accounts automatic updates.
hope it helps and don't forget to assign points.
regards,
Lily

How to setup new valuation class and link it with gl a/c

hi
can some one help me setting up new valuation class and then how to link it with gl a/c
i m new so if some one can explain me in steps then that would b awsome.
thanx

Hi Iqbal,
Follow the below path for defining valuation class ;
SPRO>Materials Management>Valuation and Account Assignment>Account Determination>Account Determination Without Wizard--Define Valuation Classes
Note that Valuation class is linked to account category reference.
Account category ref is linked to Material Type.
Thus the system determines Valuation Class for a particular mat.type.
For detmining G/l accounts:
SPRO>Materials Management>Valuation and Account Assignment>Account Determination>Account Determination Without Wizard--Configure automatic postings
Click on account assignment. Double click on BSX , enter chart of accounts .
Against every valuation class you can find the G/L accounts.

Valuation Class and G/L account

Hi.,
If i am trying to view the G/L accounts assigned to each valuation class, which Table should i be looking under. Or should it be under a T-Code??
Tx
Mahesh

Manish.,
OMWB gives me a list segregated as per the Valuation area , of the Valuation classes which are displayed after configuration.
Now as i browse ,say in BSX, when i need to add a valuation modifier and a valuation class to a GL account, how can i see the GL account assigned to that valuation class.
I understand that the assignment are done in OBYC.
When i go to assign the valaution modifier and valuation class to a GL account, i see the whole list of GL accounts which are there in the system.
But if i need to see the default settings for a valuation class vs GL account, where do i look?
Or do i have to ask the FI team for the G/L account which has been assigned to that particular Valuation class.???

Relation between Valuation Classes and material type

Dear all,
How i can keep relationship between valuation class & material type.
Can i put many valuation classes & single material type and vice versa.
Regards,
Nitin PAtil

Nitin,
Valuation class is used for automatic account determination .Valuation class is depend on material type.
Valuation class is key used to group together material with same account determination.
Valuation class is assigned to Material type via account category reference.
Same valuation class can be assigned to differnt material type if they belong to same account category reference.
However only one account category reference is assigned to one material type.
For Ex.
Mat Type         Act Cat Ref             Valuation class(only example)
ROH                0001                          3001,3002,3000
HALB               0001                          3001,3002,3003
FERT                0002                          7900 , 7902
I hope this will clear your concept.

[FSCM] add parallel valuation area and new valuation classes

Hi, everyone
I have a plan to add parallel valuation area and new (general) valuation class for International Financial Reporting Standards. But I have no experience adding another valuation area. Basically, SAP says new valuation area could be added any time. The concept of parallel valuation area also support that. But I am concerning that there could be a problem technically. Even though there would be a problem when I try to transfer valuation class of new valuation area.
If someone has an experience with these problems, please let me know and prepare that.
Thanks.
Best regards.

OX14 - Define Valuation Area (Tick one only- Once your system go live, no more changes)
             Most company take the SAP recommended choice - Value Material Stock at Plant level
             Value Material Stock at Plant or Company Level
          o If you valuate material stocks at plant level, the plant is the valuation area.
          o If you valuate material stocks at company code level, the company code is the valuation area.
          o The decision you make applies to the whole client.

Material Group in the Info Record and PO

We have the scenario of an info record that is "standard" and "sub-contracting". When you display the info record for either category using ME13, it has the value for material group in the general data screen. Technical Assistance tells me this value is found in EINA-MATKL. However, when I do an extract for the info record from EINA, the field is blank.
My two info records (standard and sub-contracting) in EINE were created differently. The standard one was created using ME11 and a plant was entered. Because a plant was entered, the material group value was not required. The sub-contracting info record was automatically created when the PO was created (InfoUpdate button is on). In the PO, the material group was also entered; however, a plant was not added to the info record because we do not have EVO set up to include the plant when the info record is automatically created. (This is something I can change).
This is very confusing when we are looking at these info records and it appears data should be there but it is not. This most noticeably happens with the ones that are getting created automatically and then a different category is created using ME11. Are we are missing some addl requirements in configuration when these records are being created automatically????
Can someone please explain???? I need to come up with a solution to this problem.

If you want to enter diff ordre unit than in the PIR
In this case in the material master purchasing screen you have to activate the var order unit
enter 2 here
now go to your info record and on general data screen you will see the field var ordre unit
here enter 2
than click on conditon from menu
system will popup the order unit screen
here keep cursor on box and click choose
now it will allow you to maintain the box price also
once you do this than it will automatically defult in the Po upon selection.

Material Group Difference MM03 (Table MARA) and Reservation (Table RESB)

Why material group at T-code MM03 (MARA-MATKL) difference at Table RESB ?
Table MARA-MATKL = 04
Table RESB-MATKL = 02
I checking MM03 not change about material group. I don't know some T-code can change material group link to table RESB.

Dear Mr.Jutamas,
As per to my understanding,initially when the reservation was made for the
particular material ,material group - 02 in Basic Data 1 view would have been
present or maintained in the material master.
After that a change might have occured,i.e someone must have changed the
material group from 02 to 04.
So in MARA table the value is showing as 04 and in RESB its showing as 04.
Once after creating reservation ,if such changes are made,as far as i know that
will not get updated or reflected in RESB.
Better confirm the same,in MM03 - Display mode of the material and after going
into any one of the view,in the top menu check Environment - Display Changes -
you may get one or a list of changes that were made,along with the user,date &
time details.
If useful reward points

Valuation Grouping Code same- Valuation Class different for each plant

Hi All,
We have 5 plants assigned to the company code. We have same Chart of Accounts (1000) and all the plants are grouped together to one valuation grouping code(001).
Now if i extend the material codes to different plants, i am able to give each valuation class to each plant. So what is the use of giving same valuation grouping code for all plants?
I expected some error message when i changed valuation class for another plant since all plant were grouped together to one valuation grouping code. Please explain.
Regards,
Rosh

Hi Rosh,
There is a meaning of grouping valuation areas using valuation grouping code
e.g.   Plant 1000 valuation grouping code - 0001
         Plant 2000 valuation grouping code - 0002
Lets say you have 3010 valuation class for material A in both plants
So while determining GL account for BSX key following will be combination
VGC / Valuation         modifierValuation class         GL
0001                                       3010                        2000
0002                                       3010                        3000
Means using VGC u can Differenciate account determination for plants under same Company code
