Valuation for a single batch

[Former Member]

Hi

I need to use valuation for a single batch, as it is stated in help.sap.com i defined a split type as x (automatic batch) for the material type and i assingned it to the material.

when i try to post good receipt with 561 movement type, i enter material quantity and ext. Amount LC.

But when i check the accounting document, BSX account is not valuated,only PRD (price difference) account is valuated with the ext. Amount LC.

I tried the same steps with a material managed with batch but without x split type,everything works normal.

I will be pleased if you will be able to give me advice.

Regards.

if you want valuate single batches, then you have to make sure that your material is batch managed.

further if you dont want to use external amount then you should have a value in the valuation type view of your batch number.

you can create the batch and this valuation type view automatically, e.g. when doiing a goods receipt. Then SAP knows that it has to valuated the batch with the price from the purchase order.

But with 561 movement.....SAP cannot determine a price, so you either have to use the external amount field, or you have to create the batch with valuation before you post the inventory.

thanks for your answer

As you said,material is batch managed.

In 561 movement I use external amount field.Normally when i post the inventory,external amount must be transferred to the price difference account and after that, stock account must be valuated with the same amount and price difference account balance must be zero.

As i said price difference account is valuated, but after this stock account is not valuated and price difference account balance is not zero.

Why should the external amount go to a difference account?

Can only be the case if your material is valuated with a standard price different from external value.

if material is managed as v and initial value is zero, when a posting is made,external amount is posted to price difference and taken back from price difference and posted stock account later.

it was resolved,

price control of material type was "S", Even if i had created metarial with "V" price control, when i was posting the material,it was taking the "S" from material type as default and valuating the split as if it was managed "S". I changed the price control to "V" from material, and it worked.

Thanks for your answer.
