Using a Non-valuated, non-stock material in an STO

Created a planning material with UNBW material type in ECC 6 to use to help manage shipping capacity at the mill. Added to a sales order and it decremented the plan as expected.
Half of the mill's deliveries are STO's so now trying to get this to work on an STO.
Does anybody have advice on how to get a non-valuated, non-stock material (ideally, a planning material, but we could work around this) that we don't plan to deliver, to work on an STO?

Thx for replying. I need the material to be accepted by the STO but also to work with planning so it decrements a planned shipping capacity for the mill. So I am trying to figure out how to get it on the STO and be differentiated from other, normal materials that have $ value, inventory, and account assignment, This material will only have a planned quantity that can be decremented by demand coming from either sales orders or STO's.

Material type non valuated affected stock update?

Hi expert,
i created PO by using account assignment "A" and material number with material type non valuated (just qty update). At the same time i processed GR, the result wasn't as like as i expected. The asset value was raised and the qty was updated in the warehouse.
Surprisingly, this result (qty update in warehouse) is also affected by using account assingment "K" & "F".
As i know, the business process by using account assignment means consumption and stock mustn't be updated in warehouse. So how could the material type non valuated's stock can be updated at the time i m doing consumption purchase? is there any config i miss in order to make it doesn't update the stock?
thanks & Regards,

Non-Valuated Project Stock Report

Dear Sir,
I am assigning some valuated and non-valuated materials to the Project. So I have selected Project Stock in Project Defination. So I can see Valuated Project Stock in MBBS but I can't see non-valuated project stock . So where should I come to know these stock also ?

Hi,
If you check your project definition control tab you can find which type of stock you are using, whether it is valuated project stock or non-valuated project stock. Since SAP is giving a radio button to select this, it means you can not maintain both valuated and non-valuated project stock.
In your case may be some of the material code you created as non-valuated material for the particular plant, not for project. Please check it again.
You can also refer sap help under project system > material to know better.
Tnx.

Non Valuated & Non Stock Materials

Hi Freinds,
I have a query. Give me few examples for non valuated & non stock materials.
Thanks & Regards
Saeed Arif

hi,
Non-stock : Materials ready for use/Consumption and available anytime Ex: Electricity,Water etc..,.
Non-valuated : Nonvaluated materials are managed on a quantity basis, but not by value.
Ex: Plastic bags in retail malls
hope this gives you a clear view of difference between Non-stock and Non-valuated

Valuated and Non-valuated project stock in same SAP system

Dear All,
Can we operate with the system where projects are with valuated and non-valuated project stock at the same time. If yes, are there any precautions we need to take before doing this.
Currently we are changing to 'valuated project stock' from 'non-valuated project stock' due to advantages of 'valuated project stock'. But since we are implementing this change in already stable system where projects are running with 'non-valuated project stock'. Please suggest of there are any complication with this.
Thanks in advance !

Hi Muralidhar Lanka,
Thanks for your time and efforts to share your thoughts with all of us. Hope you will not mind, did you done this kind of changes to profiles midst of the project in the past? or its your guess.
Because, many times these kind of questions comes from business to change, but we are not sure how it will affect the existing as well new projects. In such circumstances, normally we politely propose to go with two profiles rather changing the existing one since we are not sure of how it will affect.
It would be great help to all of us if you can share your experiences how the goods movement and value flows have taken in system for old projects and new projects. What kind of changes you could notice after changing profile in terms of .. a few of them
1. Goods movement
2. Consumption of production orders and internal order.
3. Settlement and RA (customer projects/ investment projects)
4. POC calcualtion of projects
I am sorry if you find my questions are silly and not worth to answer, please disregard.
Looking forward to hear from you at your convenient time.
Thanks,

"Taxes for SEZ" and "Opg Stock of Material for Non Valuated Project Stock"

Hi Guru's,
Need two clarifications specific to SEZ:
a. When an SEZ unit buys any materials from a DTA unit, and if the supplier issues ARE1 form then there is no Excise duty charged on such purchase. Similarly VAT is also exempt and CST is exempt if the SEZ unit issues Form I. However in case the SEZ unit is not NEF +ve after 5 years, then all these benifits taken on ED, CST, VAT etc needs to be paid back to the Govt.
Hence how is it possible in SAP to capture all these benfits (ED,CST,VAT) in the MIRO Invoice posting stage, so that the details are available when needed?
b. We are using Project Systems and the project is non-valuated. So in our case all material which we buy for Project is consumed at the GRN stage and there is no valuated inventory.
However for "Annual Performance Report" it is mandatory to give the Opening stock of material.
Can anyone throw some light how this can be calculated when we the Project is non valuated?
Regards,
Prasad

Hi,
This is little difficult to manage a material as valuated and non valuated. To make it non valuated you have to use a material type which is managed only on quantity basis and not on value basis like non valuated stock. Then you can do a material to material transfer posting. I haven't checked this scenario. For more info on this please refer these links:

Non Valuated Project stock for valuated material

Hello MM experts,
We have a valuated stock material in a plant.
We want to maintain project stock (Special stock Q) for the same material, in a dedicated storage location within the same plant as non valuated stock.
Can you please tell how this can be achieved?

Stock Transport for Non Valuated Account Assigned Material

Hi Experts,
I have to satisfy some unique requirement from my demanding FICO team to make certain process work our way.
Following is the scenario...
1. Plant A and plant B belongs to the same company.
2. Plant A makes material X (non valuated, ind/coll indicator = 1).
3. X calls for sub-assembly Y (non valuated, ind/coll indicator = 1) which is a make item in plant B. X and Y belongs to different Profit Centers
4. Sales order placed at plant A for material X.
5. MRP runs and creates a stock transport order in plant A to buy the non valuated material Y from plant B. STO is account assigned to the sales order.
6. Plant B makes the material Y by creating a production order that is account assigned to the same sales order and does PGI to ships it out to plant A.
7. Plant A GRs the material Y and this puts it in sales order stock. No value move, just qty move. Also no FI document created.
8. Plant A issues component Y to the production order created for material X. Cost of Y doesn't show up in the production order as it is non valuated.
9. Upon settlement of the production order in Plant B, the ACTUAL cost gets settled to the sales order in plant A. So at the time of settlement the profit center switch happens for Y (i.e. the profit center for Y changes to match X's profit center)
This is a beautiful process from logistics point of view. BUT, my FICO has unique requirement for inter company sales for our organization. For them to consider a process as inter company sales, the following constraints has to be met...
1. Ownership of material remains with producing profit center until consumption by the receiving object. (with the above mentioned process the profit center switch happens during prod. order settlement)
2. Cost for the consuming profit center will be moving average, standard cost or planned cost. (we are dealing with non-valuated materials and the settlement happens at actual cost)
I need your expertise to help me define a work aroud. I am thinking about a lot of options to somehow make it work but can't seem to get solutions. Following are my thoughts...
1. Is it possible to possible to make the settlement with planned cost instead of actual cost?
2. Is it possible to make a profit center switch during consumption rather during settlement?
3. Is it somehow possible to create an underlying FI document during GR at plant A? (I know SAP does not create a FI doc. for non valuated materials).
4. Or can plant B send an invoice to plant A for the STO? (I believe this can be done for cross-company STO) I am thinking doing an Invoice Receipt at plant A instead of doing a settlement might show up the cost for Y in the production order for X.
An IR with the planned cost would be an awesome solution to get the buy-in from FICO. Can this be done?
I hope you don't mind my lengthy message... Waiting for some positive response.
Thanks.

Make-to-order: COPS for KMAT materials (Non-valuated sales stock)

Hello,
We are working with KMAT configurable material (i.e. non valuated sales order stock).
The client is requiring that inventory of these KMAT material should be shown in the financial accounting;however as we work with KMAT, this seems not possible.
The whole process is:
- taking of the sales order with the configuration
- MRP and Production order Execution
- Settlement of the PO to the sales order
- Settlement of the Sales orden to a given account in FI (just like "stock for customer order") - inventory.
The problem we are facing now is how to make the compensation of this account once the product is delivered.
It seems the sales order's default settlement receiver is only the PSG. can we have to use the result analysis key to calculate the cost of sales, and which valuation method can we use if I only want to settle the actual cost that settled from the production order.
By the way, I have search for the notes:Note 26459 it seems we have to run the sales cost estimate first for the KMAT.
Summary
Symptom
It is not possible to perform results analysis on sales order items with materials of material type KMAT.
Additional key words
Transactions KKA3, KKAK
Cause and prerequisites
In make-to-order production, the inventory and the cost of sales are not posted through goods movements because the materials are managed in a non-valuated sales order stock. The only way to create postings in FI is to use results analysis (see Note 26456). If the sales order item consists of a material of material type KMAT, results analysis is not possible because no cost estimate exists for this material.
Solution
Results analysis must be performed with a valuation method that uses profit basis C. With this profit basis, the system uses the planned costs of the production orders for the sales order instead of a cost estimate for the KMAT material.
In Release 2.2 a modification is needed for this which is described in Note 25772. In Release 3.0 this function is provided as standard.
From 3.0C onwards the planned costs of the sales order can also be calculated in a product cost estimate for the sales order. You should use profit basis E in this case.
However, if you are using assembly processing with production orders, you can only use profit basis C.
Hope the scenario is clear. Perhaps you have a different approach to work with KMAT materials.

Non valuated project stock

Can I use one material with valuated stock in a project and same material with non valuated stock in another project ?
How to do this ?

Hi,
Valuated stock is controlled at project level and not at material level so you can achieve that. The radio button for stock is set in Project profile (Tcode: OPSA) control tab.

Transfer non-valuated project stock

The project is set for "non-valuated" stock. Can stock that has been received into the project be transferred or goods issued to unrestricted plant stock? If so , how?

Hi,
As for Account assignment N there is no stock ( at the time of GR the consumption is booked for that material) so while at the time of reversal of that consumption as well you can not have the stock of material, as it will be a reversal of GR. So there won't entry of that material then after( I mean stock entry).
If you want to have that then create the purchase order of the material without any account assignment as a part of general stock and then transfer stock as per the requirement.

Stock value - some has value, some is non-valuated in same material number

Hi,
I have a condition here where in our company certain material (same material number) total qty is 1000 ea.
The MAP is 10 USD. May be after a few months, the cost of 600 ea will be absorb by certain cost center(department).
So, user request to zero up the 600 ea of the stock, but the qty still have to be maintain there.
In the report they would like to see the value stock is USD 10(MAP) * 400(the balance = 1000-600) = 4000 USD instead of 1000*10= 10,000.
Is there any idea how to do this in SAP? Is there a way to do that?
Thanks.

yes you are right. once good issue occur the qty stock will decrease which we don't want it to happen. In fact the 600 quantity still remain in store, but the value is bought by other cost center, the value should not owned by store. But the quantity still can be use when there order that need to use the 600 quantity.
This is requested by the management, they would like to calculate the cost of the department I guess. From the perspective from store department, they should have bear less cost of the stock (for e,g. they should bear only 400 qty of the stock but not 1000 qty of stock, another 600 qty of stock value should bear by other department which has bought by that particular department). --> this is the purpose why we need to do that.
Also, we can not create another material number, as the planning still need to be done for the same material.

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.

Prabu
