Error M7 311 "No Special stock defined for value only material"

[Former Member]

I had this in the SD forum however someone suggested to go to the MM forum. Here is my issue

I am receiving an error when trying to receive our demo unit in as an inbound receipt off of an RMA (this is our normal process when we send a demo unit to customer).

The error message is "No special stock defined for value only material" I noticed that the MRP views were not extended so i tried to extend those and it still gives the same error message in our testing client and also created a new RMA to see if same error exists and it does, please advise

NOTE: In our Accounting 1 tab we are not utilizing the valuation category in the Accounting 1 tab of the material master. RMA is a Return of a material for service. Our Demo units after issued to customer for a demo come back using this method to check and service if needed before putting into stock. Material does not have a procurement tab as this is considered as an asset. No split valuation.

Hi Kimberly,

It seems like the systems objects placing on stock a "value only material". Why have you defined your material as "value only"? This definition is in the configuration of the material types, pushbutton "value/quantity update". I have never tried to have stock of materials which are only marked for "value update" but not "quantity update".

If you ant to have the material on stock in MM, but don't want to see it in accounting then your setting shall normally be "quantity update" and no "value update". In standard SAP there's material type UNBW which has this setting for all the plants. You can however define your other material type to have this setting on the chosen plants.

This problem is solved by going to OMS2 and selecting "value update" with"quantity update...this solved my issue

Dear Kimberly

Issue:No special stock defined for value only material

This mesaage will come up when you have active the valuation category for the material in Accounting 1 view

but not extend the valuation type for that material, due to this reason syestem is not able to find out the exact valuation for the material, You can opt for 2 suggestion

1 Extend the material in t. code. MM01 for the right valuation type

2 If you dont want to use Valuation category ( if you dont want the split valuation for the material) you fst settle the all Open PO and quantity for that material and then archieve the material and recreate again

Please let me know if u have any query
