Hi

For LIFO/FIFO valuation, you must make the following settings:

SPRO-> IMG- Materials Management-> Valuation and Account Assignment-> Balance Sheet Valuation Procedures-> Configure LIFO/FIFO Methods

1. In Customizing:

a) Set the control parameters.

b) Define the valuation levels.

c) Define LIFO/FIFO-relevant movements.

d) Define LIFO pools (ONLY with pool formation).

e) Set the automatic assignment of materials to LIFO pools (ONLY with pool formation).

2. In the material master record:

a) Define whether a material is to be valuated according to the LIFO/FIFO procedure.

b) Set the manual or automatic assignment of a material to a LIFO pool (ONLY with pool formation).

Depending on the setting for the FIFO valuation level, the FIFO valuation area is either the company code or the valuation area.

The base year is the fiscal year during which FIFO valuation is run for the first time.

Enter all FIFO valuation areas that FIFO valuation is to be performed in. Specify a suitable base year for each one.

Please go through the link for more details
