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.

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.

Hi,
Archiving the Material Master
Transaction SARA contains all the SAP archiving objects for all the SAP R/3 applications modules.
A D V E R T I S E M E N T
All the SAP archive functions are shown in SARA. Choose the corresponding SAP archive object, hit enter and the archive administration menu will be shown. Provided here will be an example on how to archive the SAP Material Master.
Archive a Material Master Record
When a material is no longer required in a company or plant, you can archive and delete the material master record.
You have to Flag the material master record for deletion. This is known as logical deletion.
Before a material master record can be archived and deleted, other objects (such as purchasing documents) that refer to this material must themselves be archived. You can see which objects these are and the dependencies between them in the network graphic.
If a material master record cannot be archived and deleted at a given organizational level, the reason is given in the log (for example, a purchase order exists for the material). The log also contains technical data such as the number of material master records read and the number deleted.
Some of the archive error log message :-
Costing data exists
Use in routing
Use in sales and distribution
Use in bill of material
Delivery exists
Costing data exists
Info record exists
Purchase order exists
The Archiving steps :-
Archiving object MM_MATNR for archiving material master records.
You can display the archived data, but not reload it.
To archive the material master, first goto transaction MM71.
Type in a variant name and click Maintain. (Tick the Test Mode for archive simulation).
Save the variant.
Maintain the Start date and Spool parameters and click execute.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the archive status.
To do a permanent delete, goto transaction SARA and click Delete button.
Maintain the Archive Selection, Start date and Spool parameters.
Click Test Session for testing or click execute to start the deletion program.
Click Goto Job Overview to check the delete status.
Now, if you goto MM02/MM03, you will not be able to find the record in the material master.
Thanks

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

Material Master-Valuation class

Dear Friends,
Depends upon the material type valuation class value is fetched by the system......Can any1 explain how this happens?......where it is assigned?.....whrs the link?.......Thanks in advance......

Hi saravana
Following the configuration path:
IMG>Materials Management>Valuation and Account Assignment-->Split Valuation without wizard
Here we will be assigning the valuation grp to the plant and give the G/L account also
Check the t.codes .OMWD, ,OMWB where assignment is done. Because of this only the valuation class will come in our MMR ->accounting tab 1

Material Master Tax Category information

OK, I'm not sure how to realy explain this but I am looking for the Material Tax categroy Data. I have found a table called TSKM with this information but it does not tie back to the MLAN table. How can I do a look up for each material and get the tax category data.
O I am using SBO as my data tool.

Hi John,
I believe that you are better off asking that question in one of the [SAP Solutions|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1#16] forums.
This forum is for a product called DataServices (or the old name Data Integrator) , an ETL tool that transfers data between databases. (Extract Transfer Load).
I'm sure that in the SAP Soltions forum there will be persons able to answer your question.

Valuation category absent

dear experts.
In My material Master valuation category is missing,i want to maintain this.
for this material stock and batches are already avaialble.
for stock ,i can be able to remove the stock,
But for the batches i can't ,system gives an error for batch already exist.
pls suggest as soon as possible.
thanks in advance.

archiving is a process rather than a transaction, it requires customizing and good process understanding.
Archiving means KEEPING date outside of SAP production tables, it is not jsut deleting, as the data may still be needed for internal and external audits. maybe for ten or more years.
Before you can archive a batch, you may have to archive other objects, where this batch was used.
This can be seen in SARA. Enter MM_SPSTOCK then click the network button.
If you still do not give up and create a new material, as this is certainly the quicker solution, then you need to define where you want store your archived data and then customize the logical and physical paths and file names. Best you do this step together with your basis team.
The customizing can be done via the customizing button in SARA transaction.
Further you have to define how big your archive shall be, and if you want delete immediatly after writing the archive automatically or if you want do that as extra step manually.
You have to define your test and production variants in customizing too.
Next is clicking the write button, give a variant name and continue to maintain your selection screen.
Then schedule the job and execute it.
Check the spool for messages, it tells you whether it could archive or not and if not why not.

Different Valuation Class for Valuation category C1,C2,C3

Hi All,
I created a material with valuation category C. The material had valuation class 3042 which I created as per requirement of client. Now when I am extending the same material for valuation category C1, C2, C3 the system is only allowing me to choose valuation class 3040 which is standard sap valuation class for spare parts. Can anyone suggest if I need to create separate valuation class for C1, C2 & C3. I have split valuation also activated in the system.

Go to MMAM and then give the material and give the new valuation class and execute it. That material have change from old valuation class to new valuation class.
Example: You create material No: 678 under the Finished goods. Finished goods valuation class is 7920 is assigned in Accounting Tab 1. You want to change "678" material to Raw Material.
Go to T.Code : MMAM
Material                                : 678
New Valuation Class             : Raw Material ( Select from F4)
                                               Which Valuation area you want
Old Valuation Class              : Finished goods ( its under gray mode
                                                                          i.e can not change)

Valuation Category for Split Valuation

Hi,
We are moving to Split Valuation and the necessary configuration like valuation category ('H') and valuation types are activated for the plant. But while creating a new material for this plant, i couldn't maintain the field 'Valuation Category' and system is giving a default 'blank' for this field.
Could you please let me know if i'm missing any config.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ganesh Perumalla

Hi,
Thanks for your advice.
I understand that while creating new material, the valuation category has to be entered. And then valuation types can be created with different prices.
But i couldn't enter the valuation category initially, as a result i cann't add any valuation types for the material. While creating material, the field 'valuation category' is blank and greyed, so i guess it is being defalulted from somewhere.
The field group (OMSR) defined for the material type can sometimes influence field values, but i'm not sure. Do you have any idea?
Best Regards, Ganesh Perumalla

*How to change the Valuation Category & Price control in material master*

Hello SAP Gurus,
I have a requirement to change the valuation category from 'X' to ' ' in accounting view of material master.
-> I have cancelled all the open PO's & SO's for the material
-> I have ensured that there is no stock for the material in that valuation area.
But still I get an error message that batch already exists for the material. When I check entries in MCHB I find that there are previous entires in MCHB with zero stock.
I have gone through the SAP note 155874 which recomends the archiving the effected objects.
Please let me know is there any work around to change the valuation category from 'X' to ' ' & price control 'V' to 'S'. I also need to change from ' ' to 'X' for a few materials.
Thanks for your advise.
Best Regards,
Narayan.

Note 155874 cleary describes what has to be done to be able to change.
There is no workaround, and if you change anything in the tables directly, then this will cause inconsitencies, as described in this note as well.

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 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..

*Valuation class IBM2 not allowed for material type Finished product*
*Message no. M3180*
*Diagnosis*

*If you want the value(s) to be defined in the system, contact your systems administrator.*
and When i press F4 in Valuation Class area it is not appearing
Can any one give me the solution
Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Go to Transaction Code OMSK. You will find three tabs there.
Go to the second tab i.e, valuation class, note the account category reference assigned to the valuation class "IBM2".
Come out of that screen and access the third tab ie., Material Type/Account Category reference.
Check whether Account category reference related to the valuation class "IBM2" is assigned to ther material type "Finished product" or not.
If not, assign the same. It should work.
Warm regards,
Murukan Arunachalam
