Hi Md sadiq

The transaction TPM3 you normally do not need as you can do all the settings for the settings of the account assignment reference in the customizing. There are derivation rules allowing yoiu different treatment of the accounting according to your valuation area and and valuation class. If these settings have not been made you can use TPM3 but this is not recommended.

The account assignment reference definies to what accounts you post while the position management procedure defines how the valuation is done e.g. lowest value principle or mark to market.
