Hi,
we would like to change material type from ERSA to UNBW for some materials. SAP help says that "Quantities and values of the material of the new material type must be updated in exactly the same way in all plants as quantities and values of the material of the old material type."
Does this restriction need to be followed even if there have not been any inventory postings done in the past? We have maintained the moving average price for these materials with material type ERSA, but we have never had any inventory updates (no value or quantity updates) on these materials. I tested in test environment and changed a material type from ERSA to UNBW and although value update is different between these material types (ERSA: value update ticked, UNBW: value update not ticked), I could not see any issues, but maybe I missed something?
Has anybody experience on this?
Br,
Paul
