Physical inventory document creation for split valuated material

[Former Member]

Hi

We are doing stock count in our company. We are using split valuation for some of the materials. When I tried to create a PID for split valuated material which are not in stock, system issued a standard error message. What I understood from that error message, we can create a PID for split valuated materials which are in stock. Is it so? If so, then how can we count split valuated material?

Let me know if you need any info.

Thanks in advance..

error message :

Item 001: No batches that can be included in phys. inv. exist for 20000055059

Message no. M7701

Diagnosis

The system has read all batches for this material but did not find any that could be included in the physical inventory.

Possible reasons for this are:

Al batches of the material have already been included in this or another physical inventory document. The physical inventory is already active for these batches.

There are no batches of this material in stock.

Hi Any answer for my query

Please refer to SAP note 30254 and it should help.

Symptom

If you create a physical inventory document for a material in a storage

location without existing storage location segment, error message M7006

is displayed: 'Material & (material number) & (plant) & (storage

location) does not exist'. Thus, a storage location segment is not

created automatically for this material.

The same also applies to the batch segment. The batch segment is also

not created automatically but, if a batch is specified for a material

when creating a physical inventory document, that is not yet created for

this material, error message M7042 is generated: 'Batch & & & & does not

exist'.

The same applies to the special stock segments which are also not

created automatically. Different error messages are generated here

depending on the special stock (see also Note 64448).

Cause and prerequisites

If no storage location segment or batch segment or special stock segment

exists to a material, this then means that a goods movement did never

occur before in the system to this material (batch) to this storage

location (special stock), that is that the material (batch) never had a

stock to this storage location (special stock) in the system before and

that it was never posted before on this segment. It is therefore not

possible to carry out a physical inventory for such a material (batch).

It is different, if a goods movement has already occurred to a material

(batch) to this segment and if only the present stock is zero. A

physical inventory is then necessary and also feasible for this material

(batch) since the different segments are not deleted automatically in

the moment in which the stock becomes zero.

Solution

For a material for that no storage location segment, batch segment or

special stock segment exists, it is not necessary, to carry out a

physical inventory on this storage location or for this batch or this

special stock. If, however, a quantity is physically found to such a

material, the corresponding segment must be created before the physical

inventory.

There are 3 options to create storage location data:

- maintain the 'Storage' view in the material master for the

material and storage location or

Page 2

- use the 'Enter storage locations' function in the material

master or

- post the first goods receipt (providing, the automatic

creation of storage location data is permitted in the plant

and for the movement type).

There are 2 options to create batch data}:

- create the batches in the material master manually via

function 'Create batch'.

- post the first goods receipt for the batches to the respective

material.

You can only post the various special stock segments via posting a goods

receipt. An exception is special stock 'K' (vendor consignment). You

must define a consignment price in the material master for this special

stock using the 'Create vendor consignment' function before a goods

receipt can be posted for this special stock.
