Valuation Class in Service Master

Hi,
Can someone please tell how can I create a Valuation Class for Service Master and assign G/L Account to it, so that the G/L Account is automatically picked up while creating the Service PO for that Service No.
Also how can I check the FI Doc created after posting the Service Entry Sheet through ML81N? It did not show any FI Document when checked the FI Documents section after clicking on the Service Entry Sheet Doc # appearing in PO History tab.
Thanks,
Lucky

Hi,
System is right & posting to KBS Transaction Event key.
The accounting entry after SES released
Service Procurement(KBS): Dr
GR/IR Clearing-service( WRX): Cr
The accounting entry after MIRO posting:
GR/IR Clearing(service): Dr
Vendor Account: Cr
If GR No-valuated selected in PO, then no accounting entry in SES released but accounting document wil create during MIRO posting & Entry will be : Service Procurement: Dr & Vendor Account: Cr
NOTE: No assignment done in OBYC for KBS, its on OKB9 t.code & Control is on OMJJ & value string. Also check SAP Note: 364570

Hi Manish
I assigned valuation class in service master and using same service master for service PO creation, but while doing GR system picks WRX account without valuation class but not the GL account assigned to the valuation class in service master?
I tried with assigning service group/ material group at PO item over view to same valution class in OMQW but still not able to post to separate GL account in OBYC. Is there anything missing?
As far as my understanding service PO WRX entries will be posted to the GL account witout valuation class.
Thanks

Valuation class for service master

Hi Guys,
I am trying for automatic G/L account determination for Service PO's. My issue i have to enter g/l code for each line item in the PO. I am not sure how the g/l account determination based on valuation class works for Service PO's
I have assigned the account category reference to the service category and to the valuation class 3200 i have assigned a g/l account for the key FRL.
Please let me know what I am missing?
Thanks and regards,
Siddharth M

Hi Sidmi
The account assignment settings made for materials consumption will work for services also .
You do not need FRL for services (it's for sub-contracting)
Account category reference decides which all valuation classes can be used for a service category. It does not determine valuation class in a transaction (it's only checks with this setting).
If you want to determine GL account automatically in your txns, then you have following options:
1) Spro>Material management>Purchasing>material master->entry aids for items without material master
For all the material groups you want to use for services , assign a valuation class here.
2) If you maintain service masters, then you can assign valuation class in service master.

Valuation class of material master to be changed

Hello,
My master data team has insereted a wrong valuation class in the material master record. Purchase order has been raised and a GR has been done for the same. SAP gives following steps to change the valuation class:
The valuation class cannot be changed, choose 'Display error'
Message no. M3368
"Diagnosis
You wanted to change the valuation class. However, this is not possible because one or more of the following already exist for the material:
Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
System response
Your change is reset by the system.
Procedure
If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows:
a) Post the stocks of the material to an interim account.
b) Change the valuation class in the material master record.
c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account.
If open purchase orders already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase order items for deletion.
If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to Deleted."
My question is how do I post the stocks to an interim account since stock accounts are configured to post automatically?
If anyone knows how to manage the posting, please let me know.
Thanks

Hi,
Make the movement with a movement type in MIGO that posts to the same account in FI for all Valuation classes.
After changing the Val. CLass then reverse the above movement.
Kind regards

Different GL Account for WRX - based on Valuation Class (No Material Master

Hi Gurus,
My scenario is as given below.
1. We do not have any Material Master. We create short text PO's with account assignment category "P".
2. We are also using Material Group in our PO. We have one Material Group for Domestic Purchases (say M1) and another Material Group (say M2) for Import Purchases.
3. We have assigned valuation class say 3100 for Material Group M1 and valuation class 3101 for Material Group M2.
4. Our plant is say RBUP and our valuation grouping code is say 0001 which is assigned to the same plant.
Objective:
While doing MIGO we want to have different GR/IR Account for domestic purchases say 108 and different GR/IR account for import purchases say 109.
Issue:
1. In OBYC setting GR/IR account is picked from transaction key WRX.
2. Our entries in WRX are as given below for our Chart Of Accounts say DMN.
Valuation Modifier Valuation Class GL Account
0001 108
0001 3100 108
0001 3101 109
3. But even when i am creating the PO with Material Group M2, it is not picking the GR/IR account 109, based on the valuation class i.e. 3101 which is assigned to the Material Group M2.
Query:
1. How can I achieve my objective of selecting GR/IR Account 109 for Import PO's and GR/IR Account 108 for Domestic PO's.
Pl note we will not be maintain material master.
Will give full 10 points if anyone can help me reslove this issue.
Pl also do not waste any of your valuable time to address the account assignments for BSX or GBB-VBR. I am fully aware that in VBR this differentiation is possible.
Rgds,
Prasad.

I suggest you to create a Dummy Materials. Lets say,
material number: 1001
enter material description as Domestic
material number: 1002
enter material description as Imports
and in OBYC for GBB
make the following settings:
val grp      gen mod    val cla      gl a/c dr     gl a/c cr
0001     VBR     4000     74180040     74180040
0001     VBR     4001     78020091     78020091
so that when u create PO u can get default GL (consumption GL ) for the material (u can use the same for material group also) and u can maintain WRX acc determination as follows ..
val grp   val cla    gl a/c dr   gl a/c cr
0001      4000     123456     123456
0001      4001     456789     456789
Thus u need to create 2 different valuation class for these material group specific and in PO while entering the text u can add the text which is displayed along with material description
hope this helps

Wrong Material Valuation Class

Hi Guru's,
Created a material with the wrong valuation class. It seems that changing the valuation class requires quite an important procedure as per the message I get from SAP. This particular sku exists for a while and has lots of documents already created and stock of material has been posted.
Please can someone tell me what is the impact of keeping the wrong valuation class? Is that a field that we absolutely need to change or could we exceptionally keep it that way?
If we have to change the valuation class could you please tell me what are the steps I would need to go through in order to do so?? Do you recommend recreating a new sku with the correct valuation class ??
Please advice.
Best Regards,
Yasmeen

Hi,
If you want to change valuation class in material master, you should check the following:
1. First be sure that no stocks in actual period exist, if you want to
   change the valuation class in current period.
   There has to be no stock in previous period if you want to change
   valuation class in previous period.
2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all PO items of the related material.
   If you found items with LOEKZ <> 'L' you have to delete them in ME22
   (see note 102653).
[Chnge valtion clss in spite of open purchase orders|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/102653]
3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant.
   If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible.
   You have to these production order(s) ! (see note 146241)
[Change valuation class for open production orders|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/146241]
These hard restriction are necessary as inconsistencies in account
assignment will follow after change of val.cass, when proceeding follow up functions of a PO item before and after changing valuation class. Please take a look to note 160970 too, and read explanations carefully.
[Change valuation class: production order/purchase order|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/160970]
If you have the Material Ledger active, the change of the valuation class
has also impact on ML. The valuation class is used to allocate the plan costs to the related cost
element. Please see the notes
[Incorr cost comp split for price when changing valuation cl|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1388546]
I hope this information helps.

Service Master Record - Clarification

Hi All,
I am creating Service master record.In which I have entered the material group so that system has taken the valuation class on it own as we have configured material group and valuation class link.
After I entering I come to know i have entered the wrong material group so have go ahead and chnaged the material group, but still valuation class has not changed, though it is linked to material group.
If we continue with the same val class then posting will happen to wrong GL.
How to avoid this?
Any reason why valuation class is not refreshed when the material group changed?
Requirement - we want val class to be changed(refreshed) whenever the material group changed.
Please can you help me out how to get this done.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nagaraj S

Please refer below sap notes:-
SAP Note 305555 - MM-SRV:Valuation class f.service catgory not updatd for the same.
SAP Note 366741 - AC03: Valuation class not recognized as required entry field
Or check Screen Layout for Service Master from SPRO.Valuation class should be Input Field.

Assignment of Service master records

Hi,
Can I assign service master records to a company code or to a plant (just like Item s?), if so, how can I view the current service master records that are assigned to a specific company code or plant?

Hi,
Service master is a master data like material master, vendor master,G/L master & HR master.But in the case of service master creation, Service Category , service group/material group & valuation class play vital role which needed most.You can links material group for service to valuation class of service in t.code: OMQW & the account determination for service which is without material master are done where G/L accountu2019s are assigned with respected to material group basis of service.
Service master is at client level not assigned to any company code or any plant. You can check the service master created list in t.code: AC06.

Valuation Class

Hi,
Can you pls suggest me how to change the valuation class in material master.
All the three conditions
*No Open PO*
*No Open Production order*
*No stock for that material*
But transactions are being carried out for that material
So pls suggest me step by step procedure.
Thanks and Regards

Hi
It is always suggested that instead of changing valuation class create new material and block the old one after transfering balances to new one.
Still if you want to change, do the following.
Close all PO.
Complete all the pending issues.

Valuation class changess

hi sir,
i am changing Valuation class.but i have some open purchase orders,production orders.now i am doing delete for that orders then chage valuation class and remove delete flag for that orders.plz tell me these is right metod or not.

Prasad,
For changing valuatin class you have to delete all open PO,Reservation,PR ,Production order...etc.
But after changing Valuation class, you should not remove the deletion flag from the deleted items,because it will through error, when u will do the further transactions like GR for the open PO.
The best practice is to create new orders after changing the valuation class in Material master.

Cannot change Valuation Class although no Open-PO

Dear Gurus,
I try to change Valuation Class in Material Master but I cannot after I created PO and still after MIGO and MIRO.
We are using PS and Material Master is set as below;
Ind./Coll in MPR4 = 1
Since requirement comes from PS, PO is created with account assignment category Q.
Once we execute MIGO and MIRO for the PO, still we cannot change Valuation Class.
If you know the way to change Valuation Class, would you tell me how?
Best Regards,
AK

Hi,
The change of the valuation class will impact on ML (material ledger), if the ML
is active. Is ML active on your system?
The note 575632 explains partly the effects on CCS. The
valuation class is used to allocate the plan costs to the related cost
element. Therefore, it is advisable to create new materials instead of
changing the valuation class. This would be straight forward and easy to
follow-up. The CCS does not a change history. Consequently, the previous
periods can not be explained with current CCS. That may lead
inconsistencies under circumtances. It is up to your decision. You can
change, test the impact and decide on. The proposed solution of SAP
would be avoiding that change and creating new materials.
When you try to change the valuation class, what is the details of the
error?
In order to change valuation class in the material master, you have to
make sure that none of the following exist in you system:
1 Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
2 Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
3 Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
The system checks the stocks (storage loc. stocks and special
stocks) of the same period in which the valuation class will be changed.
If the valuation class of current period will changed, check in
transaction code MMBE for zero stocks, or in SE16: MARD/MBEW;
MCHB/MKOL/MSKA/MSKU/MSLB/MSPR.
The system checks all dependant purchase documents without delete flag
and error M3368 occurs when it finds at least one non deleted po item
(not only when stocks exist).
1. First be sure that no stocks exist in current AND previous period!
   see note 30656, with an example how to get zero stocks.
2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all po items of the related material.
   If you found items with LOEKZ <> 'L', you have to delete them in ME22
3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant.
   If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible.
   You have to these production order(s) !
These hard restrictions are necessary as inconsistencies in account
assignment will follow after change of val.class, when proceeding
follow up functions of a PO item before and after changing valuation
class. Also attached is 146241.
In customizing for the Material Master, you can switch the check for
open purchase orders and/or for production orders to a warning.
You do this in Define Attributes of System Messages by assigning
the message type Warning to message MM 326 and/or MM 327 respectively.
Please refer to note 160970 for more information.
I hope this will help you in resolving the reported issue.

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.

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.

Valuation class change

Hello Experts,
we have a crazy situation. When materials were loaded they were loaded as Raw materials and costed. Later they realized that it was a mistake. So user changed the valuation class to semi and recosted with different price. Because of the price difference we had accounting documents. When we run F.01 it shows semi finished values. In the MB5L report it shows raw materials. Is there any way to get these perpetual inventory reports back in synch?
Thanks in advance.

hi venkat,
Valuation class are based on MATERIAL TYPE A/c Cat Ref, not like user can assign directly any valuation class on material master
Please revisit your account determination and do more analysis on your issue.
thanks
