Hi,

Service category is used for diversifying the Service masters usage.The service category is like a material type only, but does not carry that much importance & no control functions available for
service category.If needed-you can assign different number ranges to the service master using service category such as Transportation,Furnace maintenance,Building maintenance etc..... (for internal numbering )

In general - For material master, the valuation class is linked to an account category reference and account category reference linked to material type. In other word - account category reference is used to simplify the assignment of permitted valuation class/valuation classes to the material type/ material types where while creating material,you will get valuation class in Accounting -1 view for specified material type in MM01 t.code.

Hi Just one thought - I see that we have account category reference assigned to service category reference. Does it mean that while defining service master based on my service category I will have choices of allowed valuation classes?

Also is service group the only option for OBYC determination of GL for service master, Pls elaborate.

Yes. ACR assign to VC, ACR assign to service category. With this combination,  service master will fetch the valuation class.

Thanks Dev Sir. This means I have two alternative ways - either through service group or else through service category.

Hi,

   As of my knowledge, there is no standard configuration settings to default the valuation class based on service category. You can define the allowed valuation classes in the account category reference assigned to the service category.

   If you want to default it, either you create the service master with reference to a similar service master or go for development.

I hope it can't be defaulted like as material master...

As in material master if we assign one valuation class to ACR and this ACR assign to material type, then Valuation class is defaulted at the time material creation..

But I have checked, if one valuation class is assigned to ACR and this ACR is assigned to Service category, we can see the one valuation class when we press F4. but it not in the field as default valuation class.

You can control the valuation class to view in F4, but you have choose the valuation class from F4 option...
