Hi
For a Particular material, Material Ledger is active or not? Can be checked in Accountig view of Material Master.
Why we need Material Ledger?
A fundamental task of the material ledger is carrying inventories in multiple currencies and/or
valuations.
Material inventory values are normally carried by the SAP system in one currency. The material
ledger component enables the R/3 System to carry inventory values in two additional
currencies/valuations. Therefore, all goods movements in the material ledger are performed in up
to 3 currencies or valuations. Currency amounts are translated into foreign currencies at
historical exchange rates directly at the time of posting. Businesses such as those in highinflation
countries can therefore carry their inventories in a more stable currency (such as US
dollars). This reveals inflationary effects on inventory values.
If you use transfer prices to represent value flows in your company in different
valuation views, you must use the material ledger. This allows you to carry your
inventories in three different valuations (legal valuation, valuation for reporting
purposes, and profit center valuation).
Before activating the material ledger, make sure you know which currencies and valuations
you want to use, because you cannot go back and change the setting.
Activating the material ledger is a prerequisite for using multiple valuations.
Thanks

Material ledger is not active in valuation area S001

Dear All,
I have created a Scheduling Agreement & did the GR. When I am doing invoice posting system is throwing error as Material ledger is not active in valuation area S001
What might be wrong here ? For same material if I create PO then everything is working fine. Problem is only with SA.

Hi,
Please check your Material Ledger Activation setting for the Valuation AreaC002 in T-code OMX1. The Check box for the ML activation against the Valuation Area-S001 may be ticked. After activation/ticking this box, T-code CKMSTART was not executed to complete the ML activation. If you want the activation of Material Ledger, you have to run T-code CKMSTART to complete this ML activation or Otherwise uncheck this box. I hope this step will resolve your issue.

Hi Sabera,
The Valuation Area is not activated for your material ledger. Go to SAP Access>>Accounting>>Controlling>>product cost controlling>>Actual Costing>>environment>>Production Start up>>Set Valuation area as productive.
If you already activated Valution area in to Productive Statge.
Then go to T.Code OMX1 and for your valuation area XXX2 tick the ML activation box.

The valuation area defined for the plant is not defined in table T001K.

when i creating the PO for plant ,s/m is giving the following meassage
The valuation area defined for the plant is not defined in table T001K.

Hi,
You have two options to check:
Option---1: You defined your plant ( in t.code:OX10) and if then copy from existing plant(ex. 0001 0r 1000),check the plant not assigned to company code properly .Now assign in t.code OX18 and also check the table T001K after this configuration.
Option---2: Use t-code: OMWD, check whether your new plant ( valuation area) is assigned to valuation grouping code . If not assign the same .
Now try creating PO.

OKB9 valuation area specific CC assignment not picked up

We have the following scenario: Valuation area is active and we use OKB9 for valuation area specific cost center assignment for certain company code/cost element combinations.
When we try to settle a rework order that has the respective cost element in the settlement profile the OKB9 default cost center (on the valuation area level) does not get picked up and thus, Error: Cost element xyc needs an assignment to a cost object.
Has anybody run into that?

Hi,
First you should check receiver category in settlement profile, which is mentioned in the work order. If settlement receiver is material, then system will derive the cost center based on the valuation area . we have to give direct cost object assignment for receiver category in the settlement profile..
which receiver category you assigned in the settlement profile..

Hi, I need to get the availability of a material by Valuation area BEFORE save a order sales.
The configuration of MM is by Valuation area. In te tables MBEW and EBEW don't appears the avaibality, appears the stock and
the avaibality and the stock dont' is the same.
Example
MANDT MATNR                BWKEY BWTAR
200   000000000002000060   5000
200   000000000002000060   5000   PRODUCIDO
200   000000000002000060   5000   REVENTA
The sales order STANDAR verify the availability by Valuation area, I DONT UNDERSTAND "a valuation area is not relevant for availability check                                        ".

Hi,
a) where can i find the setting for the "Negative Stock - valuation area", I beleive this is different from the plant storage location setting for negative stock and needs to be activated first.
b) I am doing a goods issue 201 aginst the cost center.Is there a way of finding the correct cost center.
Thanks
Rajiv

Hi
where can i find the setting for the "Negative Stock - valuation area", I beleive this is different from the plant storage location setting for negative stock and needs to be activated first.
You can find this in OMJ1 Transaction, apart from this in the Plant parameters also you can flag the Negative stokcs for Special stocks.
b) I am doing a goods issue 201 aginst the cost center.Is there a way of finding the correct cost center.
In OKB9 maintain the defulat cost center for the G/L account used for posting the Goods issue to cost center.
You can find the G/L account attached in OBYC, GBB transaction & genaral modifier VBR, valuation class of the material
Thanks & Regards

Valuation grouping Code and Group together valuation area

Hi,
I wan tto know what is mean by Valuation grouping code in our system for all valuation area it is 0001 can we create seperate account determination for different plant to same company code or for one company we can create only one account determination process.

Hi,
The account determination can be done at sprommvaluation and account assignment ---account dtermination ---with out wizard.
The valuation grouping code makes it easier to set automatic account determination. Within the chart of accounts, you assign the same valuation grouping code to the valuation areas you want to assign to the same account.
Valuation grouping codes either reflect a fine distinction within a chart of accounts or they correspond to a chart of accounts.
Within a chart of accounts, you can use the valuation grouping code
Example:
The valuation areas 0001 and 0002 are assigned to company codes which use the same chart of accounts. For both valuation areas, however, you would like to define a different account determination.
You must assign different valuation grouping codes (for example, 0011 and 0022) to both valuation areas
Example:
Valuation areas 0003 and 0004 are assigned to company codes which use the same chart of accounts. Account assignment for both valuation areas should be similar.
You assign the same valuation grouping code (for example, 0033) to both valuation areas. Thus, you only have to define account assignment for both valuation areas once.

Valuation Area at Company Code level

Hi,
In what ideal business case/industry one should set valuation area at company code level when SAP recommends valuation area must be set at Plant level ? in other words..what is the practical purpose of Valuation area at company Code level?

Hi
Think that valuation area link with records in table MBEW. So, if you have a company with 3 plants, and you have a single valuation for all company, in 3 plants the valuation of materials are the same, with their implications in valuation of stock and valuation of margin in sales (remember that this value can flow -really, use to flow- to condition VPRS in SD, well see SAP Note 1365939 - VPRS logic and Customizing settings in SD and SAP Note 547570 - FAQ: VPRS in pricing for more details). If you do a valuation different by plant, stock and margin calculations are different.
What are the elements that you must considerer?
1. If the materials is purchased, think if the same material have different conditions (different conditions in MM, for instance, indirect costs as shipment costs, different vendor with meaningful differences in prices or discounts). It's indiferent that it is a raw material or a material that you can sell. The raw material will work in product costing as an item in BOM. First of all, considerer the impact in stock value, second think how is delivered the materials to customer from plants and their impact in profitability analysis. If there are meaningful differences for the same material between different plants and you give the same value in all company, depending of the mix perhaps your customer is fooling himself about this issue.
2. If the material is manufactured, talk with your CO consultant and what kind of impact could have different routings, BOM and prices of raw materials between plants. Same considerations for valuation of stocks and margin.
Finally, in the page 10 of the document you can read
Valuation must be at Plant level in the following cases:
u2022If you want to use the application component Production Planning (PP) or Costing
u2022If your system is a SAP Retail system
I hope this helps you
Regards
Eduardo
PD: I forgot, talk this with the CFO of the company, taking in account the restrictions (when it must be plant level).
