Sales - Dummy Plant for Non-Valuated Material

Dear Gurus,
I have a requirement for SD implementation where the business involves non-valuated material.
The sales scenario does not required data on stock to be captured in the system.
There are 5 sites to where the same material is supplied from.
Hence, the sales documents to be configured are sales order and order-related billing.
However, the following requirements are also included in the sales scenario:
1. Generate a sales report, with sales order data extracted by sites where the material is supplied from.
2. Product price for the same material differs, because it depends on the site that the material is supplied from.
I have thought of using a dummy plant to cater for this scenario.
Seeking your advice whether this is a good practise for this case.
Batch management has also been suggested to me.
However, per my reading, batch management is closely related to goods issue (which is not in scope).
I would appreciate your advice on this matter.
TQ,
HJMY

Hai,
To involve Non valuated material in SAP, instead of creating Dummy plant, create a Non valuated material type NV0102003. Through material master it can be easily achieved by creating a material type without Accounting tab.
So in SAP system the stock will be shown but without any financial impact, and stock also can be monitored thro system.
In MM01 every thing is common between the finished goods and Non valuated goods.
Automatic batch management will be determined in Delivery order creation.
Since you created the material you can maintain the rate with the plant combination.
and sales report can be generated with the delivery plant combination

Sales order MTO for non-valuated Material type

Hi Friends,
I need to create MTO sales order for non-valued material type, and at the time of save, I am getting an error that, Material "JOBFINISH" cannot be costed
Message no. CK113.

In accordance with material type UNBW for material JOBFINISH, the material is not relevant for costing.
System Response
Material JOBFINISH is not costed.

Display material master record
2. If you have authorization for Customizing, check whether the material type is correctly set for this material. A material can only be costed if the Costing indicator in the material type is set.
Can you please suggest to handel this kind of error.
Rgds, Krishan Raheja.

First in MM03 ,check the Material Type & Costing View whether any cost is there.If it is not there ,then ask FI consultant to provide the Costing.
Then Go to OMS2 > Select Details against your Material Type > Can activate the Costing View ( if it is not there in MM03).

Storage Location for NON valuated material in MIGO

Hi friends ,
I have created a purchase order for NON-Valuated material (UNBW) with Account Assignment "K".I did check the material type UNBW configuration where only Value Update is checked for my Plant.
Now at the time of MIGO , system is asking for Storage lcoation (mandatory) and after MIGO system also updates quantity in Storage Location entered in MIGO.
while in normal cases (like ROH material type) , if we create Account Assigned PO ( like K) , system neither ask for Storage lcoation at the time of MIGO , nor system updates Qty at any storage location.
As per my understanding , if we create Purchase Order with account assignment K , system updates value in consumption and doesn't update Qty in stock (although material is stockable) .....which is simply like immediately issue of material to cost center.
Therefore wondering why system is updating Qty for NON-VALUATED material.
Does non valuated material means , POST value to Cost center (for account assignment K) and Update Qty in stock ?
Like in case of Account Assignment , value gets charged to WBS and qty gets updated as special stock "project"
All replies are welcome .....
Regards
Shrey

By definition UNBW's are ony qty updating and have no value assoicated with them. Since the system needs to stock this qty somewhere it by deafult asks for a Sloc.

When posting GI for Non valuated material in Delivery geting error (M8147)

Hi Experts
We have a problem that we are trying to send a material from one plant in one company code to another plant in another company code (Inter Company Stock Transfer Order). The material is of type Non Valuated (So it has no valuation class). The PO Order type used and the PO account assignment category is of type saying GR Non Valuated.
Problem is in the outbound delivery (movement type 645 determined) when posting GI do we get a account determination error (M8147 = Account determination for entry 1000 GBB Z001 not possible), saying that no account could be determined.
Our understanding is that the GI for the delivery demands a Valuation, which we can not do as the material is NON Valuated.
How to set the GI non valuated for the outbound delivery, so we can avoid this error? please help

I cant believe that the same error message is coming up after the maintenance.
you either maintained an entry at a wrong level within GBB or the message must have changed.
Make sure that you take any information of this message into account (even the spaces)
the message is certainly not like you posted here: Account determination for entry 1000 GBB Z001 not possible
the message carries 4 variables , not only 3

Purchase Requisition for non valuated material

Hi,
We have defined a material as non valuated in ECC, we are doing planning vfor the material in APO and generating Purchase Requisition on vendor for the material. Now the issue is that we are not able to CIF the Purchase requisition to ECC and system is giving account assignment error.
For the same plant vendor locatio n combination Purchase requisition is getting CIFed for valuated material.
Canm anyone please help regarvding how to CIF purchase requistion for non valuated material from APO to ECC.
Thanks & Regards,
Sanjog Mi shrikotkar

Hi Sanjog
Agreed : the material is non valuated so we have not extended accounting view for the material, also we cannot allow financial posting for non valuated material.
But an accounting view is required for a material, no matter whether it is a valuated or a non valuated material
I am sorry about not being able to transmit any positive reply to you, i am not aware of other way of getting it

Stock Transport Order for non valuated material

Hello,
I am creating a Stock Transport Order for non-valuated material. I posted GI for STO mvt 351 and it decreases stock from issuing Storage Location, however when I am posting GR for STO mvt 101 the Storage Location field is not there in MIGO and after posting the quantity does not increase in receiving Storage Location which is not expected. Note that both issuing and receiving Plants are the same and the material type has quantity update in the Plant.
Also in the STO the system is asking for Account Assignment Category which I do not need because there are no transportation costs. Can i overcome that ?
Thanks,
Wael

Hi,
The quantity update is set for the material type in the plant as I mentioned. Also since both issuing and receiving plants are identical and there is stock in the issuing SLoc this means quantity update is active.
Thanks

Total Stock in Accounting View for Non valuated material

Hi,
There is one plant 1050 which is non valuated (only Qty updation ).I maintained accounting view with value 0. I will do 501 movement.
It is showing me in MMBE tcode.
But when I go to check in accounting view it is zero.If it is non valuated whether stock gets updated in Accounting view of material master or not.
This problem we are facing at client location.
Please help me in understanding.
Regards
Raghavendra Pai

Hi,
It is not a problem, this is standard SAP, since the material is non valuated, you could not see the stock in Accounting view.
Normally for non valuated material, no need to maintain accounting view. Even if you maintain stock will not be reflected in that view.

Different GR/IR account for service entry and GRN for non-valuated material

Hi,
Our requirement is GR/IR account while doing service entry and GR/IR account while doing GRN for non-valuated material (UNBW) should be different.
Though we maintain valuation class for material group (Transaction OMQW), system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting. The system is ignoring the respective valuation class G/L account. Also if we maintain valuation class for service masters, then also while doing service entry sheet system is picking only the valuation class maintained for blank entry in transaction WRX under OBYC setting
Had i missed out any other setting. Pls help.
Regards

Hi,
In OBYC, please maintain a GL for valuation class 3200 for services and a GL for val class 3300 for Non-valuated material in WRX.

Initial entry stock (561) is valuated for non-valuated material

Hi Gurus,
I am doing initial entry of stock balance (MvT 561) for several non-valuated material. But when I check the table MSEG, I got status of "X" in the field MSEG-WERTU, which mean the material is valuated. The consequence is the value is updated, so I get inconsistency in stock (stock value is updated, table MBEW)
So how can I can get valuated when I done my first initial entry of stock balance for non-valuated material?
How can I trace, where did I go wrong?
I have checked these:
- I checked the material type, and it is properly configured (quantity update only).
- No changes have been made in the material type.
- No changes have been made in the material master data.
Please help, and thanks!

Hi,
Please refer the below links....

Importance of Profit centre filed for non valuated material

Importance of Profit centre filed for non valuated material material master

Hi
Profit center field in case of non valuated material is useful, only if your consumption a/c is not a cost element. In this case, it takes PC from mat master
Else, if takes PC from the CO object in which the GR is accounted.
However, your screen layout in MM might have defined PC as a mandatory field in MM01.. For this, you need to contact your MM consultant

4.what accounts are generated for Non-Valuated material & for Consignment m

4.what accounts are generated for Non-Valuated material & for Consignment material?
please explain me.

Dear Srinivas,
Please find below the explanation about both materials in a simple manner.
"Non valuated material".(UNBW):
For this material type in the basic settings only Qty. update is active & no value update.
No accounting data is maintained in Material master hence stock values are not updated.This material is procured only with account assignment.
Consumption statistic is updated only after Goods Issue.Whenever material will come its value will be always go to consumption account.
Consignment Material :
In this case material is still owned by vendor & only kept in your premises. Liability only starts when you withdraw material from consignment stock or post it to your own valuated stock.Liabilities are generally settled monthly.
At GR wrt PO material is directly put to consignment stock of vendor.It is possible to post another GR into consignment stock.No valuation takes place during GR.
Once the material is withdrawn from consignment stock( For prod) it is valuated with the price of vendor in as per INFO record.
If useful reward points,

Account assignment for Non valuated Material

Dear All,
Please guide how to create PR & PO for non valuated material.
Regards,
Manish Jain

HI,
Non-valuated material (Material Type UNBW):
This type of material is managed on a quantity basis, but not on a value basis. This makes sense for materials of low value, stocks of which nevertheless have to be monitored (for example, operating manuals).
Non-valuated goods receipt
At the time of the goods receipt, postings to the consumption account do not take place. The posting to the GR/IR clearing account is therefore not applicable. With invoice receipt, the consumption account is debited with the invoice amount. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account.

Splitt valuation for non valuated material

Hi all,
Is it possible to make splitt valuation for non valuated material? if yes how?
Our business scenerio
Large no of spare parts (ERSA).Divide spare parts material type into 2,
1 for valuated and another for non valuated,
For non valuated spares,copy from ERSA make it ZBLB for non val spares
now
How to make the split valuation for ZBLB material type material's ??
Do u have any idea ??
Regards,
Hareesha

Hi
Split valuation is the concept used for individual valuating of different lots of same material.
Here you have created a new material type ZBLB from ERSA for maintaining non-valuated materials. There are several significant points in your actions.
1) When u are able to maintain materials seperately with different material types, what way u want to use split valuation concept?
2) As the non-valuated material implies for no value updating, the material type does not provided with accountign view. So no valuation class and obviously no valuation type. The prpcurement of non valuated material will be account assigned.
3) For non-valuated materials, either u have to use standard material type UNBW or copy from UNBW. donot copy from ERSA.
I hope your doubts are cleared. Please come out with your comments if any specific.
warm regards

Account determination for non-valuated material

hi,
I have configured account determination for non-valuated material when I try to post the Invoice then error come that GR/IR account required for posting. but my GR is Non valuated so GR/IR account would be ignore then why required GR/IR account by system at the time of Invoice.

You have to understand the difference between GR non valuated and non-valuated stock
Non- valuated stock has following attributes
1. Value update should not be flagged in the material type and valuation area combination (OMS2)
2. That means the stock will not have inventory values and further good movements after GR would not have accounting document
3. Non- valuated stock material can have GR valuated or GR non valuated ,depends on tick /untick of GR non valuated field in the purchase order under delivery tab.
4 . Material type does not have any control on GR non valuated .It is controlled by account assignment category or item category or manually in the purchasing documents.
Scenario 1:
in your case if you have created PO with non-valuated material and without GR -non valuated flag ,there must be an accounting document in GR as follows
GBB     - Consumption account - Debit
WRX - GR/IR account - credit
and if you do invoice ,you would have following accounting entries
WRX - GR/IR    - debit
vendor-           - credit
Scenario 2:
IF you have created PO with +non- valuated material + and flagged + GR non- valuated+ in PO, then GR will not have any accounting entries and MIRO will have following accounting entries
Vendor -     credit
GBB - consumption account - debit
let me know if you have any concern
