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.

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.

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,
Komal

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..

Valuation class for imports and domestic material

Hi,
We wanted to hit different GLs for domestic and Imported materials inventory and therefore we have defined two valuation classes for Domestic and Imported material and these valuation classes are attached to respective materials in account view 1.
But now our problem is , we have few materials which are procured from domestic market as well as Aboard market.
Therefore now we are facing problem how to hit correct GLs based on the nature of procurement.
Thx in advance...
Regards
Sandeep marwha

use split valuation , since materail details is a master record we cant dupoicate .
so use split valuation and give a diffrent valuation class which correcponds to a diff gl account .
so when ver u create a Po givethe valuation type also , so that at Gr doing time , the stock will hit that gl act only. other wise will create issue , it will be grayed out while doin Gr .

Split Valuation : Different procurement type and different origin

Hi ,
I have the following scenario :
The company has a plant in Dibrugarh and another in Plant Raipur .
It deals with product called SIG .
SIG is manufactured at Dibrugarh but sent to Raipur. So we have different valuation for the same material at two different plants . Now the second scenario is this product SIG is also procured from the domestic market as well as imported . This externally procured SIG either from domestic market or from foreign country is also sold to the customer. So what would be the valuation of this SIG . How many valuation types should it have . And what are the mandatory settings at two plants .

Hi,
Split Valuation process is useful when the materials have to be maintained with more than one value based on certain criteria like
The following are some reasons for which Split valuation is used
Different origins of the material
Different grades of quality for the material
Different statuses for the material
Differentiation between in-house production and external procurement
Differentiation between different deliveries
In your case;
Split Valuation process is useful when the materials have to be maintained with more than one value based on certain criteria like
Imported materials and local material based on the origin of purchase so that the valuation of the final product manufactured can be valuated accordingly
For Activating Split valuation certain settings have to be done in customization and in the Material Master record.
Activate split Valuation for the Valuation area (In SAP standard system the split valuation is set as active by default)
MENU: - IMG  Materials Management  Valuation and Account assignment  Split Valuation Activate Split valuation
Define Valuation Category and Valuation type for the material in the customization
MENU: - IMG  Materials Management  Valuation and Account assignment  Split Valuation Configure Split Valuation
Note : Valuation category specifies which criterion should be used as the basis for differentiating between the various partial stocks ( origin, quality, production etc)
*The valuation type specifies an individual characteristic of a partial stock ( Origin u2013 imported/local , Quality u2013 (high/low) Etc)*

Valuation category- material splitting

dear sirs,
i have one material code where valuation category is not activated(splitting is not done).
if i want to activate the same what oi have to do.
we are usuing the vaualtion category active mainly to valuate the domestic and import purpose.
but due to over sight for the same material activation of valuation category has not done.
bnow i am having X pc of domestic qty, and if i want to bifurcate the same with imported what can be the best solution without opening a new material code

this problem can be solved by activating valuatiion category, by doing this split valuation wil be activated, whatever the present material u have just mov ehtrm with movement type 309
thanking u
please assighn some points if u r suggestions are solved

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).

Csaba

Procured material - incorrect valuation class

We are version 4.7 with purchase accounting active in our company.
Following is the issue faced by us.
We have a single material code for both procured and manufactured item.
In the material master the valuation class entered is that of
manufactured.
When we create a GR with respective Purchase order (whenever it is
procured) the accounting entries generated are incorrect. They are
based on the valuation class entered in the material master (which is
manufactured) and GL codes are derived from OBYC assignment.
Kindly suggest how a single material can work for manufactured as well
as procurement and error in accounting entries generated can be
rectified.
Satish

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

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.

Activating split valuation for existing material code

All SAP Gurus,
We have certain material codes in ROH and HALB material types in a plant.
We are doing external procurement as well as inter-company stock transfer (STO) of the same materials.
We want to keep the separate accounting of the material which is procured from out side and which has been received through STO.
As the material codes are same, in my view only solution is to have split valuation for these materials.
Now, as the materials are already in use since very long, will it be possible to actvate split valuation for these materials?
If yes then how?
Is there any alternate way to tackle with the problem?
Regards,

Hi,
Better you go with Split Valuation. But Before u go to split valution u have u clear all Pending Documents for that material.
U must not have stock in for that particular material.
In Split valuation, use material Valutaion type STO or External procurements.
Donot make any of the Valuation Type as Default....it will create problem in Future.
Hope Help u !
REgards,
Pardeep Malik

Split valuation / material costing

Hi all
I am valuating a raw material twice since in-house production( 50 INR) and external procurement(100 INR). Material code is same as usual. This material is used to make a fert material and is to be included in costing. If then, which valuation type will the system take?
Yuvi.

costing depends on the usage of the material with split valuation
Eg . Material : AAA
Inhouse material cost -- Rs 50 -valuation type :XXX
External procurment - Rs 100-Valuation Type :YYY
you are assembling this material AAA and FERT is made
Fert Material : CCC
BBB :inhouse machining cost -Rs 25.00
costing of CCC:if you
inhouse material then -> 50+25.00-75.00
External procurement -100+25.00->125.00
Hope it is clear

Split valuation- material identification

Hi, letus say we maintained grade1 price and grade 2 price thru split valuation for material x, say shaft. here material number and description is same for both grade materials. How to know which grade should be manufactured when the order comes from sales/ customer? Basically how to identify the material incases of issue to shop floor, receiving from shop floor or from vendor or to customer?

When you activate spilt valuation for material then for posting inventory movement system will ask you to select the valuation type.
If material is going to be procured from outside(Vendor) then while creating Purchase order you need to select the valuation type. Same will be considered at GR posting.
At Issued stage also you need to select the stock from valuation type.
