Hi,

I have a small querry relating to Valuation Class

I have 6 valuation classes and configured 1 GL codes to 6 VC's under WRX tr. key. When i am doing IR system is showing error message like there is no a/c determination in WRX. Then again i configured blank valuation class and assigned 1 GL code. this time i am not getting any error.

Why blank VC needs to be configured?

Thanks

Hi

In normal business, every material which is being procured, stocked or consumed needs to be valuated and all the records of such valuation needs to me maintained.

In SAP all such records are being captured in stock account of respective material. Since all most every business deals with a high number of materials and it is not possible for them to maintain separate stock account for every material. Hence there was a strong need of grouping the materials based on the properties they have. Hence in simple words, valuation class is a grouping of materials having similar properties and assignment of these materials to a group of G/L accounts.

Since we are grouping materials based on some properties/attributes known as material type, hence which valuation class a material can be assigned to depend on the material type it belongs. An assignment with the following combination is possible in Customizing:

u2022 All materials with the same material type are assigned to just one valuation class.

u2022 Different materials with the same material type are assigned to different valuation classes.

u2022 Materials with different material types are assigned to a single valuation class.

When we create a material master records, based on the above setting the systems checks whether it can be assigned to the valuation class specified. If not system will not permit to save the records. Once the records are saved, the system refers to the valuation class of a material to determine which stock account to be posted in case of any transactions in IM or LIV.

Valuation Class along with following components forms the valuation structure of a material. During valuation process each of these components is being taken into consideration by the system.

u2022 Valuation area

u2022 Valuation category

u2022 Valuation type

u2022 Material type

Now can you explain me what is exact problem you have faced? Check out your material of that PO against which you post the invoice verification. Have you done the GR.

Hi Roobel,

Thanks for your explanation. But, i have just a querry saying that as follows

I was trying to post material ex rate diff to GL code 123456 under tr. key KDM. I have a mterial ABC and assigned VC 3100. Now i have configured in OBYC like this

GR has been done and the entry is Inventory(GL 100000) Dr to GR/IR (500000)

BSX: Valuation Class: 3100

GL :100000

WRX: Valuation Class: 3100

GL: 500000

KDM: Valuation Class: blank

Valuation Class: Z123 (newly config for KDM)

GL: 123456

Here, m question is why this blank valuation class needs to be maintained? If i cannt maintain here system threws error message like uder KDM tr key VC is not maintained

hi

Enter and review the process with next configuration:

- Path: Materials Management --> Logistics Invoice verificaction --> Incoming Invoice --> Configure How Exchenge Rate Differences are treated

ERD setting = Blank (Exchange rate differences between GR and IR)

CCCurr = Active

With this configuration you'll receive the exchange difference in KDM account instead of BSX or PO account, no matter the price control of the material or service

Insert the flag and check, If you set this flag the system will calculate and posts exchange rate differences between GR and IR usign KDM account instead of BSX, not just for materials with standard price, also for materials with MAP control, account-assigned transactions and planned delivery costs
