Material Split Valuation Error

Hi,
We have recently implemented ECC 5.0 version of SAP. In case of certain
material we are tracking value based on split valuation. In case of one
material the code was opened without activating valuation category,
subsequently we tried to activate the same , but the system lists out
the POs and stock details in error message, in response we issued the
stock and made it nil and blocked all open POs still the system does
not allow to change valuation category in MM02.
Please guide to resolve problem.
Regards
Milind Nair

Hi,
Thanks for all your replies...
Only one PO was created earlier & GRN was also done against it for the entire qty. Later, the corresponding stock was consumed.
Then, valuation category of this material was set to blank. At that time, it was ensured that there wasnt any stock or any open PO's against it.
Still I am getting this error. Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,

Split Valuation Error during GRN Creation

Hi,
I am getting an error 'Material 2000750015 F419 not subject to split valuation' while posting GRN.
Actually, the Valuation Category was bymistakely updated in this material earlier. The same was later removed from the material & then a new line item was added in some existing PO for this material 2000750015 & plant F419.
But, still system had automatically saved a valuation type 'REG' in EKPO against the PO line item, although the valuation category was set to blank in the material prior to adding the line item in PO.
Due to this, I am getting above mentioned error while creating GRN.
Kindly help to resolve this issue at the earliest since the material has already arrived at the warehouse.
Thanks & Regards,
Komal

MM42 change material, split valuation at batch level, M301, locking table

Dear All,
I'm working on ECC 6.0 retail and I have activated split valuation at batch level. Now in MBEW for this specific material I have almost 14.400 entries.
If I try to change some material data (MM42) I receive an error message M3021 A system error has occurred while locking and then Lock table overflow.
I used SM12 to see the table (while MM42 is still running) and it seems that MBEW is the problem.
What should I do? For any material modification the system has to modify every entry in MBEW? Is there any possibility to skip this?
Thank you.

Hi,
Symptom
Key word: Enqueue
FM: A system error has occurred in the block handler
Message in the syslog: lock table overflowed
Other terms
M3021 MM02 F5 288 F5288 FBRA
Reason and Prerequisites
The lock table has overflowed.
Cause 1: Dimensions of the lock table are too small
Cause 2: The update lags far behind or has shut down completely, so that the lock entries of the update requests that are not yet updated cause the lock table to overflow.
Cause 3: Poor design of the application programs. A lock is issued for each object in an application program, for example a collective run with many objects.
Solution
Determine the cause:
SM12 -> Goto -> Diagnosis (old)
SM12 -> Extras -> Diagnosis (new)
checks the effectiveness of the lock management
SM12 -> Goto -> Diagnosis in update (old)
SM12 -> Extras -> Diagnosis in update (new)
checks the effectiveness of the lock management in conjunction with updates
SM12 -> OkCode TEST -> Error handling -> Statistics (old, only in the enqueue server)
SM12 -> Extras -> Statistics (new)
shows the statistics of the lock management, including the previous maximum fill levels (peak usage) of the partial tables in the lock table
If the owner table overflows, cause 2 generally applies.
In the alert monitor (RZ20), an overrunning of the (customizable) high-water marks is detected and displayed as an alert reason.
The size of the lock table can be set with the profile parameter u201Cenque/table_size =u201C. specifies the size of the lock table in kilobytes. The setting must be made in the profile of the enqueue server ( u2026_DVEBM.. ). The change only takes effect after the restart of the enqueue server.
The default size is 500 KB in the Rel 3.1x implementation of the enqueue table. The resulting sizes for the individual tables are:
Owner table: approx 560.
Name table: approx 560.
Entry table: approx 2240.
As of Rel 4.xx the new implementation of the lock table takes effect.
It can also be activated as described in note 75144 for the 3.1I kernel. The default size is 2000 KB. The resulting sizes for the individual tables are:
Owner table: approx 5400
Name table: approx 5400
Entry table: approx 5400
Example: with the
u201Cenque/table_size =32000u2033 profile parameter, the size of the enqueue table is set to 32000 KB. The tables can then have approx 40,000 entries.
Note that the above sizes and numbers depend on various factors such as the kernel release, patch number, platform, address length (32/64-bit), and character width (Ascii/Unicode). Use the statistics display in SM12 to check the actual capacity of the lock table.
If cause 2 applies, an enlargement of the lock table only delays the overflow of the lock table, but it cannot generally be avoided.
In this case you need to eliminate the update shutdown or accelerate the throughput of the update program using more update processes. Using CCMS (operation modes, see training BC120) the category of work processes can be switched at runtime, for example an interactive work process can be converted temporarily into an update process, to temporarily increase the throughput of the update.
For cause 3, you should consider a tuning of the task function. Instead of issuing a large number of individual locks, it may be better to use generic locks (wildcard) to block a complete subarea. This will also allow you to considerably improve the performance.

SPLIT Valuation Error!!!

Hi Gurus...
I am getting an Error in Split valuation.
I'm using ECC 6.0
I have cofigured all steps in Split valuation
While creating material ..initially after entering valuation category its asking for valuation class as mandatory field.
without entering valuation class i'm not able to save the material.( Buti what i feel is normally we shd'nt enter the valuation class,at the time of declaring valuation category initialy in Accounting tab) and leter on at the time of extending with valuation type only ..we should enter valuation class.
So can you friens fix up the problem ..pls..
Thanks and Regards..
R.B.K.Kannan

even in the 4.7 version system does not ask for the valuation category at the prompt screen of plant in MM01
RATHER system ask for the valuation type and we can only mention the valuation category in the accounting data view
r u taking about valuation type or category because at the prompt screen system ask for only valuation type in 4.7

Material Split Valuation : Procurement Domestic & Import

Dear CO Experts,
I m in a situation where my client has a Raw Material (RM), which is procured domestic & also imported. This RM is attached to a single FG in a BoM.
Do differentiate domestic & import procurement, they have used Split Valuation.
The reason behind such a decision is, since that RM is very sensitive and delay could not be affordable.
Clients are now requesting to have a seperate view of Standard Cost Estimate based on Slipt Valuation. We have observed that execution of Standard Cost Estimate picks only RM which is based on local currency.
Please help me to understand & few steps of missing config, how to have a dual view (based on Slipt Valuation) of Standard Cost Estimate.
Regards,
Hussein.

Hi Hussein
Two RMs are required - But its not a good option... It creates lot of probs in MRP if you have duplicate codes...
Two FGs are not required if you go for 2 RMs....
a. You can create 2 BOMs... The RM will be different in each BOM
b. Routing may be the same
c. Create 2 Prod versions i.e. BOM 1 + Routing = PV1 and BOM2 + Routing = PV2
d. Create 2 Proc Alternatives in CK91N using the Prod 2 Versions
e. Create a Mix ratio in CK94 i.e. weighing factor that you can assign to each PV
f. Calculate cost from CK11N... Costs will be calculated separately for each PV and at the end system would apply the mix ratio specified in CK94
Eg: Cost of PV1 = 100 and Cost of PV2 = 120... If mix ratio is 50:50 - Then Std cost would be 110 (100 * 0.5 + 120 * 0.5)
From my experience - I would advise you to drop your requirement and educate your client about the same... have one single raw material (you can use Split Valuatoin) and use the Average price for Std cost... While execution - The cost of consumption would be charged as per Domestic or Import... This would hence, reflect the price variance....

Material split valuation and costing

Hi All,
We are using ECC6.0.
We have activated split valuation for some matetrials and have
maintained valuation category {"E"} as per requirement of the customer.
Valuation Types that are maintained are : INH for Inhouse Production
and "SUB" for Sub Contracting.
We are facing following Problems:
(1) We are not able to activate the Costing Views at Valuation Type
Level and hence the requirements of the customer to do the valuation
based on Price Available at Valuation Type Level( i.e. at INH & SUB )
is not possible and so to meet the requirement we must activate costing
view at Valuation type level.
(2) As recomonded by SAP all Semi finished goods are maintained at
price control indicator "S". We have activated split valuation for some
of the semi finished goods also and hence we are not able to create the
Semi Finished Goods having Price control indicator as "S" at header
level. The system is throwing the message saying: Only price
control "V" is possible for split valuation;Message no. M3185. But the
customer wants to create all Semi Finished Goods having price control
indicator as "S" at header level.
<b>(3) While running standerd cost estimate(CK11N or CK40N) the system is
not picking the rate maintained at Valuation Type Level i. e.
either "INH" or "SUB". It is picking the price from the header level of
the material master which is basically average of all the prices
available at Valuation type Level (The price appearing at MAP field at
higher level) .</b>
Your Early reply is awaited.
Thanks & Regards,
Bijay Kumar Deo

(1) We are not able to activate the Costing Views at Valuation Type Level
True - Costing view will associate with the header level only. The ONLY material master views that will associate with valuation type is Accounting 1 and 2 - to allow inventory valuation at that level.
(2) As recommended by SAP all Semi finished goods are maintained at price control indicator "S".The system is throwing the message saying: Only price control "V" is possible for split valuation.
True - only moving average is available at the header level because inventory is value only at the Valuation Type Level. The header represents the "Total qty" of material on hand (for ALL valuation types) and the standard price you see is the average value of that quantity, it is for reference only, not use in inventory valuation.
3) While running standard cost estimate(CK11N or CK40N) the system is not picking the rate maintained at Valuation Type Level i. e. either "INH" or "SUB".
True - CK11 and CK40 work with "header data" You were unable to activate Costing 1 and 2 for Valuation types - therefore there is no "place" for cost estimates.
Cost estimate data is maintained it the tables KEKO and KEPH - these tables do not have the key field "valuation type" - there for you cannot create it.
In standard Costing - you must pick one method as the standard by which to procure and value the inventory and the other method of procuring inventory creates values at standard and generates variance.

Split Valuation For Material Having No Open PO & Stock

Hi Experts,
Will somebody throw light on split valuation where there is no any open PR, PO & Stock for that material but system does not allow to make material split valuated.
System shows error meassge giving old PO nos list.
(Logically all these POS whole business transcations/cycle is completed )
I want split valaution to be done to the material whose stock is nil also there is no any open PR,PO for that plant in the system.
But I dont prefer to delete line items of the old PO for doing the split valuation.
Please suggest solution
Thanks in advance.
Ramesh

Hi,
You can find severaé threads about this on this forum.
Some hints:
1. In MM02 try to set the split valuation > Save > SAP will give error message > Push the appearing 'Display errors' button > SAP will say what hinders you from being able to set the split valuation.
2. As I remember stock has to be zero in current and previous period. (You can set your stock to zero in the previous period using MB1A201posting date in the past; after having set split valuation you can reset your stock level via MB1A+202).
3. IMPORTANT: you have to archive all existing batch records.
4. etc

Inforecord for Split valuated materials

Hi all,
How can i maintain different prices for split valuated materials
For Eg. I have a material split valuated based on its Quality vendor supplies two diff quality materials with different prices
how to maintain the prices in inforecords or any alternative to maintain both the prices.
With regards,
Krishna

hi..
Split valuation is for Valuation Purpose only...
SAP does not support....Procuring same material with Diff. Split Valuation Type from Single Vendor is not allowed by SAP standard..
You cannot Maintain Purchase Info for Material which is having 2 Split Valuation type......with One Vendor......
Because For One vendor and One material combination, you can maintain One split valuation type only....
Hope it works..
Thanks..

To extend material master in condition that split valuation.

I want to valuate the material at two different valuation class
if the material is produced internally and procured externally.
So I use split valuation function.
I created accounting view using valuation category at plant level and
I extended accounting view using valuation type.
I tried to extend material master for other plant in condition that
I didnu2019t check batch management in purchasing view
but I mat error message u201CIndividual batch valuation not possible hereu201D(M3184).
To extend material master for other plant, Should I check batch management
in purchasing view ?

Hi,
Select the batch management indicator on purchasing view, press F1 button and check technical details. If the field is:
MARA-XCHPF --> batch management is active at client.
MARC-XCHPF --> batch management is active at plant level
Please check SAP online help on batch level:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/25/2838714f7811d18a150000e816ae6e/frameset.htm
Batch Levels
Plant level
The batch number is unique in connection with the plant and material.
The batch number is only known in the plant in which it was created if the stock is transferred to another plant, the batch is unknown in the recipient plant and the system does not adopt any data. You have to recreate and specify the batch in the receiving plant; that is, the same batch number may have different specifications in several plants.
Material level:
The batch number is unique in all plants in connection with the material.
The same batch number has the same meaning for the material in all plants. One batch number cannot have different specifications in different plants. During stock transfer to another plant, the specification of the batch is known in the destination plant even if the batch is placed into storage in that plant for the first time.
Client level:
The batch number is unique in the whole client. A batch number can only be assigned once in the client. You cannot assign the same batch number for different materials.
The batch number is only unique at the chosen level.
If your batch maagement is valid at client / material level you defined it once in table MARA and it is valid for all your plants - that's why you get it automatically (if this is the reason in real).

Error when doing two step transfer between Plants with split valuation

Hi expert,
I´ve activated split valuation for Material X , it has three Valuation types ( NEW, REPAIR and DAMAGE ) . The problem arose when i tried to do a two step transfer between plants ( mov 303 ) and i got the following error msg :
Use one-step procedure for transfer posting to mat. subj. to valuation
Message no. M7048
Diagnosis
In the receiving plant, the material is subject to split valuation. For this material, a stock transfer cannot be carried out using the two-step procedure.
Procedure
Use the one-step procedure (movement type 301) or a stock transfer order for the stock transfer.
The message is very clear itself , but... i just wonder if there`s actually any way to avoid this, I tried to change the error msg into a warning but couldn´t find it in customizing. Thanks for any comments on this !

Hi,
What do you mean with "inconcistent to my storage type definition?", is that mean i can process two step transfer without using PO/delivery process or one-step movement? coz according to business requirement, we must use two step transfer considering to the distance between plants is so far and we want to make it the simple way so that PO/Delivery process isn't better solution. I think, this is an standard procedure all company over the world can use but just the reason of split valuation the system can't execute the transaction.
Is there any config i miss to? is there any user exit i can use for this requirement? please help me..
thanks,
AJ

Split valuation for material

Dear all,
I'm facing issue when trying to assign "Valuation category" to Material in Material master Accounting view.
Purpose of doing this is to achieve split valuation. But system is blocking me to do that due to PO created for the material before.
Refer below that steps happen for the scenario:
1. Material 123 created without split valuation.
2. Create PO 999 for the material 123, follow by full GR of qty 10 and eventually "delivery completed" marked for the material.
3. Using MIGO movement 261 to perform GI qty 10 for production usage.
4. Now Production order has been finished, and wish to bring back the qty 10 to Non-valuated stock.
5. Goto MM02 change Material 123 to assign "Valuation category" in Accounting view. Error returned by system " Purchase order 999 item 00010 already exist".
For the case, do you know how to get rid of the error in order for me to assign "Valuation category" after PO has been created for the Material?
Please comment.

Hi,
Have you activated Split valuation ???? Before using valuation category.
the process you followed is correct. Now the stock is 0.
You need to configure Split Valuation :
1.To use split valuation, you have to activate it using TCode 'OMW0'.
2.To select split valuation ('OMWC'), proceed as follows:
2.1. 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"
2.2. 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.
2.3. 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 2.2.
Now you assign the Valuation Category in Material MAster Accouinting View.
Hope this is useful for you.

Smitha

Error Split Valuation

Hai...
When i processing PGI ....i get an error
saying that ..........Material - 12450871 9030 not subject to split valuation
12450871 is Material
9030 is Plant
regards
pathys

Hello Parthasarathy,
might be that, you have maintained the valuation category in the accounting view 1 of the material master record.
If you dont need the split valuation, remove that valuation category.
I hope this solves your problem.

How to deactivate Split valuation functinality for a Stock Material

Hi All,
I have one issue on Split valuation like by mistake user has extended the material with the Valuation category and he has extended to one Valuation type and received a stock with this valuation type.
Now they want to deactivate this split valuation functionality for this material, Can any one tell me the prerequisite process for this scenario?
Regards,
Nag

Hi Nag,
Maybe you can change it - I'm not 100% sure since I have never done such thing.
But:
- Please eliminate transactonal data (delete all of them)
- Remove the stock in current and previous period (possible via MB1A + 201 + posting date)
- Archive the views of your material master (records in MBEW) with valuation types
- After removing the views with valuation type, hopefully you can remove valuation category
Changing the field and trying to save SAP will give error message > click on appearing 'Display Errors' buton > you will get information about what hinders you from being able to execute the change > eliminate these problems
This is just my opinion.

Stock Out to Enable Split Valuation on Material

We need to activate split valuation on a particular material on one specific plant, in order to do so we must stock out from all st. locations and cancel all opened documents.
We did it !
In Stock report it shows zero stocks in the following plants and Storage locations.
we also checked MBEW and MARD Tables and the values are zero their.
However it still display errors:
Stocks already exist at plant level.
Material                Plnt   SLoc
236670030          D920 M920
236670030          D920 M921
We checked Plant stock and Storage Location in MM03:
There it shows the Following:
Plant Stock in previous Period:
Unrestr.-use stock              45,836
How can settle the above.
Please advise!
MASK

Hi There
Check in Stock in transit or Stock in transfer or Reservation for a material in a plant,,
Once you confirmed everything Zero, again check the Stock and try
Based on your below post, i am doubting of transfer or Transit or reservation open qty
236670030 D920 M920
236670030 D920 M921
Hope it helps
