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.

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

Relations Between MLCD table and material movements type

Dear all,
I Have a question about relations between MLCD table and Material movements. For Example We have a movement type Z71 when we did a movevent with tis movement type from MB1C Transaction. System creates a record in Mlcd Table. in this table Category field is VN and PCat field is V. How system decides about VN and V
is there any table which contains these conversions or is there any custimization in MM or CO modules ?
Could you please help me if you have any information about subject.

2 Valuation Class - Same Material Type

Hi ,
I have 2 Valuation class 9001 & 9003 for ZPAC Materil Type .
9001 - Packaging & 9003 Casing .
Where i can find the difference between this Valuation class in Material Master.
I have 2 Material with different Valuation class with same Material type.
I Could nt able to find the difference in between this 2 material.
Like Packaging & Casing where i can find this,
Pl suggest.
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
Go to OMWC, there click on "Global Categories", here position cursor on the Valuation category (which is maintained for Material Master) and click on "Change" button, here check have you entered any Valuation type in field "Default: val.type ext.procure."
This defaults the Valuation Type in Purchasing Documents.
In MIGO, if you don't want to enter valuation types manually then use concept of Batch Determination if your materials are batch managed.
Procedure for Batch Determination: -
1. Go to OMCG and here put Batch Search Strategy "ME0001" against Movement Types 541 and 543 O
2. Now in MBC1 - Maintain condition record for Strategy Type "ME02" and here keep Selection Type as "O"
After doing the above settings, system will not determine the batch and valuation type during Subcontracting PO, but at the time of Transfer Posting (MB1B) and Consumption of Components (MIGO), system will determine batches and corresponding valuation type
If materials are not batch managed then go for "Stock Determination Procedure"
1. OSPX - Define Strategies for Stock Determination
Here take a copy of Stock Determination group "0001" and create a new and assign to your plant.
After maintaining Stock Determination group and rule go to "Stock Determination Item Table", here enter stock type as "F", Storage Location (if required, otherwise keep it blank), enter priority as 1, 2, 3 and valuation types against that in which sequence you want these to be determined.
Now in SPRO > MM > Inventory Management and Physical Inventory > Stock Determination > Assign Stock Determination Rule in the Applications > Inventory Management > Here assign Stock Determination Rule to 541 and 543
Now assign Stock determ. group in MM02, under "Plant data / stor.2" view of material master
Now in MIGO - Click on "Stock Determination" button to get the valuation types automatically.

Relation between MSEG table and movement types in 2lis_03_bf

Hi all,
May i know the relation between MSEG table and 2lis_03 _bf xtractor stock type/stockcategory where we see the informarion in r/3 side for this, you answers gets rewarded.
regards,
Dan.

Hi,
Most of the data for IM comes from the tables MSEG andd MKPF. You can go to MSEG contents and see the data there. You will find all the movement types, stock types and stock categories there. You can also use the transactions MB5B, MB51 etc.. to see the related info in R/3. As I said most of the data comes from these tables but not all the data. It uses some internal programming to get the data.
Hope it helps...

What is the relation between main class and inner classes

hi
i want to make a UML design and o want to know how to draw the relation betwwen the main public class and inner classes?
and what is the relation?

Please keep in mind that if you spell better you will get better answers and if you add duke stars you will get better answers and if you mark the thread as a question you will get better answers. That will make it look like you are paying attention and that you really want an answer.
My best answer based on your rather vague question:
A minimal public class in a file named "Minimal.java" in the directory named "minimal":
package minimal;
public class Minimal {
private int variable;
public Minimal(int var) {
variable = var;
public int getVariable() {
return variable;
}This would be an example of adding an inner class:
package minimal;
public class Minimal {
private int variable;
public Minimal(int var) {
variable = var;
public int getVariable() {
return variable;
public class Inner {
private int innerVariable;
public Inner(int var) {
innerVariable = var;
public int getInnerVariable() {
return innerVariable;
}The inner class is exactly like any other inner class except if you are accessing it from anything else other than Minimal then you would have to add Minimal. right before Inner for example, where the Minimal class could use
Inner inner = new Inner(5);other classes would have to use
Minimal.Inner inner = new Minimal.Inner(5);
See [Inner Class Example|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/javaOO/innerclasses.html] or [Nested Classes|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/javaOO/nested.html] for more information.
He is probably not asking what an inner class is or how to declare one in raw source code. To me he is asking how do I
explain this relationship in a UML diagram and as UML is not and exact science and expression can vary a lot
between UML design applications I didn't want to stab in the dark.
@OP I would say whatever seems most logical to you and your team, write something that reads.

Valuation Area and Material master

Dear All,
Can anyone explain the relation between Valuation Area and Material Master.
According to my knowledge,Plant has relation with Material master.
SAP recommends Plant to be Valuation Area.
Regards

Hi Venkat,
Valuation Area is the level at which u need ur Material to be valuated .
V have 2 options as :
1> Company Code
2> Plant
SAP recomends aat Plant level.
If u Company code is used then the Material is valuated at same price across whole company.
The decission of Valuation Area has to be done at configuration level.
And once done , it should not be changed ..............as SAP states
Thanks & Regards
Hope this helps

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.

Different material- same valuation class-same movement type - but should hi

dear all,
Different material- same valuation class-same movement type - but should hit different gl account.
the requirement is the materials are different but having same valuation class. Now during issue certain gl account are hitting because of val grp code, account modifier and account determination in mov type. Now my question is can i use same movement type and hit different gl account for materials having same val class???
It is possible??

Hi,
In OBYC, we maintain G/L account for the transaction key (for ex: GBB) for the combination of Val. grouping code, Valuation class & account modifier (ex: VBR - determined via mov.type).
As per your requirement, Materials have the same valuation class and you are using the same mov.type for Goods Issue, so only option is to use different val.grouping code (which is assigned to a valuation area).
So in short, you can trigger different G/L for the different materials with same val class, mov.type only if the Plant - valuation area is different.
If the Plant is same then system will always determine the same G/L even though materials are different.
Hope it is clear.
Thanks & Regards,

Not getting the Link between GEIL and material type: procured material not

Hi Friends,
Some material corresponding to certain G/L Account numbers are not appearing. From Fagll03 I can check the G/L Account number, but how shall be able to get the corresponding table field which holds the material or to check whether that G/L Account number has been properly linked to the material.
Please suggest what to do. Is this a problem of programming ? or ...
Thanks,
Saheli

Hi Saheli,
Link b/n GL accounts and Material is in this way.
Material is created based on material type and material type is connected to Valuation class via Account category reference.
Now that for each valuation class corresponding GL accounts are defined in customizing.
you can check the same in Tcode# OBYC.
To check the posting to Inventory account during GR, select BSX (Inventory posting) and check whether the corresponding valuation class has got the assignment with GL accounts or not.
Hope this help you out.

Define Valuation Class against Material Group through SPRO.

Hi,
Can we define Valuation Class against Material Group through SPRO.
Because we don't want to insert valuation class during material master creation. Reason, User can select easily wrong Valuation class during creation of material master and due to this, valuated in wrong GL accounts...
During material creation, valuation class should automatically show in Accounting View.
Pleas guide..

Hi,
For your requirement as you have 10 Material Types and you should have 10 new account category reference &10 new valuation class and link(OMSK)each Material Type with individual valuation class though respective account category reference. Also assign each account category reference in respective material type in OMS2. So when you create material (MM01) with a particular material type, then only assigned valuation class will be defaulted/allowed to enter in accounting -1 view.
In the standard we have some predefined material type, valuation class and account category reference and a link between them has already established by the system. If we are using these standard setting no additional efforts are required. But to meet any specific requirement, if we have to create a new material type or a new valuation classes or a new Account Category Reference (all the three), then we have to establish this links in bewteen.

Change the valuation class of material [Stock transport order scenario]

Dears,
Client would like to change the valuation class of material.
There is no open Purchase order/Process order/Purchase requistion and stock in plant.
Scenario- One Stock transport order is created.
For same goods issue (351-issuing plant) and goods receipt (101-receiving plant) is done.
When we are going to change the valuation class of said material, message is "purchase order is open
and it shows the no of STO [for which receipt and issue is done]"
To resolve this issue we had first delete the STO line item no(ME22N). Then change the valuation class.
(this allows). and then undelete the STO line item. Through this we can change the valuation class of material.
Please advise in such business process that this is right way or there may be other option.
Thanks & Regards
Rajan

rajanshah219,
Here's my take on how to fix:
*Manually change Config TCode OMT4 - change message MM 326 & 327 to type "W" (if open order exists...now you can enter through warning messages)
*If inventory exists, then issue out of stock to a cost center
*Change valuation class
*Put stock back into inventory (reverse to that same cost center) Note issue out and reverse back into inventory must happen in the same posting period.
**Valuation class should be changed as expected
**Manually change config TCode OMT4 - change message MM 326 & 327 back to type "E"
Thanks,
Jason
