Dear all,
Our customer is petroleum trading company.
They want to manage the valuation by shipment.
We propose to use valuation type for each shipment (We will implement
Material Ledger for revaluation the actual cost of each shipment)
E.g:
For Vessel X, at 04-Jan-11, valuation type = X04Jan11
The customer will have too many shipment every year (around 500
shipments), so they should create a lot of valuation types.
I have some questions:
1) How many valuation type (maximum) can be managed by SAP system?
2) How can we manage with too many valuation type? Users maybe confuse
with the system?
3) Have some customers implemented like it before?
Thank you very much for your support!
Regards,
CH
Hi Cao,
Have you activated the split valuation, if yes then go to global catagories and set automatic valuation type. by doing this you can create multiple valuation type as per your requirement for each consignment.

Valuation type per batch is a standard feature in SAP split valuation setup.
And this is nothing else than creating an additional accounting view in material master per batch number (SAP does this automatically for you if it is set to batch)
Of course the performance of programs that have to read all these accounting view data will go down.
But I had more performance issues with the number of batches and using the automatic batch determination in a delivery. Here the number of 1000 batches per material is a kind of borderline were the user really realizes that the performance is worse.
But if you enter the batch manually you will not see any difference.
If you consider to archive the batches and along the valuation records , then you should not face much problems.
