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

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,

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.

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.

How to setup new valuation class and link it with gl a/c

hi
can some one help me setting up new valuation class and then how to link it with gl a/c
i m new so if some one can explain me in steps then that would b awsome.
thanx

Hi Iqbal,
Follow the below path for defining valuation class ;
SPRO>Materials Management>Valuation and Account Assignment>Account Determination>Account Determination Without Wizard--Define Valuation Classes
Note that Valuation class is linked to account category reference.
Account category ref is linked to Material Type.
Thus the system determines Valuation Class for a particular mat.type.
For detmining G/l accounts:
SPRO>Materials Management>Valuation and Account Assignment>Account Determination>Account Determination Without Wizard--Configure automatic postings
Click on account assignment. Double click on BSX , enter chart of accounts .
Against every valuation class you can find the G/L accounts.

Debit/Credit sign settings of item and movement type usage

Dear BCS Experts,
According to your experience, where are Debit/Credit sign settings of item and movement type used in BCS? As I know, they can be used during data collection. Any other thoughts?
Thanks.

Actually, Barry, I recognised that that was not a doubt regarding BCF. It was (and still is) a doubt about the MoveType sign for that values that are generated automatically during the CoI activities.
Since the decrease/increase for such activies is defined, there is a question if the sign of these MoveTypes may interfere with the amounts or the side to be placed in (debit or credit).
Do you have experience in this?

Relation between Inventory Process keys and movement types

Dear All,
Is there any way to find the relation between Inventory process keys (which is in SBIW-> Settings for Application specific data sources(PI) -->Logistics -->Settings for IBU Retail / CP --> Transaction key maintenance for SAP BW) and movement types .
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Raju

Hi,
Please read the note below.
Note 353042 - Howto: Activate transaction key (PROCESSKEY)
It has something for you ....
The process key (0PROCESSKEY and 0BWAPPLNM) of the InfoSources has not been filled. As a result, no key figures are updated because of the update routine of the participating InfoCube and along with it no records are inserted into the InfoCube. In each update routine, the system checks the content of the PROCESSKEY. If this field has no contents, then no data is written into the InfoCube because of the IF condition in the update rules.
Solution
So that you can work in the above mentioned InfoSources, you MUST activate the determination of the process key. This is done with the help of Transaction MCB_ which you can find in the OLTP IMG for BW (Transaction SBIW) in your attached R/3 source system.
Here you can choose your industry sector. 'Standard' and 'Consumer products' are for R/3 standard customers, whereas 'Retail' is intended for customers with R/3 Retail only.
You can display the characteristics of the process key (R/3 field BWVORG, BW field 0PROCESSKEY) by using Transaction MCB0.
If you have already set up historical data (for example for testing purposes) by using the setup transactions (Statistical Setup Programs) (for example: Purchasing: Tx OLI3BW, material movements: OLI1BW) into the provided setup tables (for example: MC02M_0SCLSETUP, MC03BF0SETUP), you unfortunately have to delete this data (Tx LBWG). After you have chosen the industry sector by using MCB_, perform the setup again, so that the system fills a valid transaction key for each data record generated. Then load this data into your connected BW by using 'Full update' or 'Initialization of the delta process'. Check, whether the system updates data into the involved InfoCubes now.
If all this is not successful, please see Note 315880, and set the application indicator 'BW' to active using Transaction 'BF11'.
Hope this helps.

Condition class and calculation type missing for conditions downloaded from

Hi All,
I have downloaded all the condition types from R/3 using dnl custcndall
I have even downloaded the following using r3as
dnl_cust_cnd
dnl_cust_prc
dnl_cust_price
But I have noticed that for the downloaded condition types, condition class and calculation types are missing. Please suggest.

I have faced the same issue recently.
The solution is in adapter object DNL_CUST_CNDALL for table T685 and other tables for T685 in that objet put the filters for condition type
for ex: KSCHL eq PR00
This sure will work.
But you have to set this filter for all tables T685*
Thanks

BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE with GM = 03 and Mov. type 961

Hello,
I keep running in to the same error message when test-running the BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE bapi with GM 03 and mov. type 961.
Although for my product MM03 says that I have 999 tones of stock for unrestricted use I keep getting the message:
"Deficit of SL Unrestr. prev. 1 T: 900253 DE01 D1CD"
can anyone understand the reason for this ?
The application consultants have no problems posting the goods movement but I keep getting the same error message no matter what quantity I try to move.
Grateful for any help on this matter !
Best regards
//Erik

Hello again,
After having changed the posting date I now have error message:
"Fld selectn for mvt type 961 / accnt 412505 differs for network (019)"
This is starting to feel like som form of customizing missing so my guess is the application cosnultants will have to look at this.
Ideas still welcome though !

How to default Valuation class from Item Type

Hi,
Is there a way to assign Valuation class to Item type, so that when a new material is created is created with a certain Item type, automatically the system pics the aluation class?

Hi,
Account can be defaulted from Account Assignment Category, not from Item category (if this is what you were asking?)
In the case of items with account assignment with a material master record, the valuation class from the accounting view is used.
In the case of items with account assignment without a material master record, the valuation class of the material group (see following graphic) or the valuation class ' ' is used.
Hope this helps!!
