Stock but non-valuated material with FOC flag in PO but system asking for..

273 Views

Dear all,

We have create a new material type which is stock but non-valuated material masters which measn in the "Qty Updating" checkbox is checked, while the "value updating" checkbox is unchecked.

Our process is when we create PO of this item, we will flag the "FOC" checkbox in the PO line item in ME21N.

However, when I perform the above step, i hits the following error message:

Account assignment mandatory for material 40000010 (enter acc. ass. cat.)

Message no. ME062

Diagnosis

There is no provision for value-based inventory management for this material type in this plant. Account assignment is thus necessary.

Procedure

Please enter an account assignment category.

Question, why system still want me to key in an account assignment category and with GL and cost center? this is suppose to be a Free of Charge item with the above setup and procedure?

Please advise.

Thanks.

Tuffy
