ORGANISATION STRUCTURE

DEFINITION OF MM ORGANIZATIONAL ELEMENTS

PLANTS

The plant is an operating area or branch within a company.

The plant is embedded in the organizational structure as follows:

 The plant is assigned to a single company code. A company code can have several
plants.

 Several storage locations in which material stocks are managed can belong to a
plant.

 A single business area is assigned to a plant and to a division.

 A plant can be assigned to several combinations of sales organization and


distribution channel.

 A plant can have several shipping points. A shipping point can be assigned to several
plants.

 A plant can be defined as a maintenance planning plant.

A plant has the following attributes:

 A plant has an address.

 A plant has a language.

 A plant belongs to a country.

 A plant has its own material master data. You can maintain data at plant level for the
following views on a material master record in particular: MRP, Purchasing, Storage,
Work scheduling, Production resources/tools, Forecasting, Quality management,
Sales, Costing.

The plant plays an important role in the following areas:

 material valuation

If the valuation level is the plant, the material stocks are valuated at plant level. If
the valuation level is the plant, you can define the material prices for each plant.
Each plant can have its own account determination.

 inventory management
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

The material stocks are managed within a plant.

 MRP

Material requirements are planned for each plant. Each plant has its own MRP data.
Analyses for materials planning can be made across plants.

 production

 costing

In costing, valuation prices are defined only within a plant.

Material Block for Goods Movements

When material master data is read for the first time during a goods movement, this
indicator specifies that tables MARC (plant data) and MBEW (accounting data) are locked
exclusively until the goods movement has been fully posted.

Another user cannot maintain the material during this time. This ensures that the goods
movement is valuated correctly and that the stock quantities and values are updated
correctly. The disadvantage is the long period of time for which the lock is set (from the time
the material master data is first read when the goods movement is entered through to
completion of the update posting).

RELEASE PROCEDURE

EDIT CHARACTERISTIC

IMG Path: Material Management  Purchasing  RFQ / Quotation  Release


Procedure for RFQ  Edit Characteristic

In this step, you create characteristics for a release procedure for requests for quotations
(RFQs).

Classification characteristics are the criteria for a release Condition. If the criteria of a
release condition are satisfied, the associated release strategy is assigned to the purchasing
document (e.g. purchase order or RFQ).

In communication structure CEKKO you will find all the fields that can be used as
characteristics for a release condition (e.g. BSART for the order type and GNETW for the
total order value).

1. Create a characteristic for each field from communication structure CEKKO that is to be a
criterion for your release strategy. You have a free choice of names for the characteristic.

2. Enter the table name and the field name on the tab page Additional data (for example,
table CEKKO for field GNETW).

3.Check the data for the chosen field on the tab page Basic data.

If you want to enter several values or a value interval for a characteristic, set the multiple
values indicator in the area Value assignment.
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

Note

Value intervals can only be specified for numerical values (e.g. an interval of 10,000 to
15,000 for the value of the purchase order.

4. Check the texts for the field on the tab page Descriptions.

Procedure for RFQ  Edit Classes

In this step, you create classes for a release procedure for requests for quotations (RFQs).

You use a class to group together characteristics that are to constitute a release condition
for a release strategy. In the step we assign this class to the release strategy.

ACTIVITIES

1. Create a class with the class type 032. You have a free choice of names for the new
class (e.g. REL_RFQ for the release of RFQs).

2. Assign a name for the new class on the tab page Basic data.

3. You can view an error message if different characteristics with identical values have
been assigned to a class. To be able to do so, select the Check with error message
indicator in the Same classification area.

4. If appropriate, select terms to be used as search criteria in searches for your class on
the Keywords tab page.

5. Assign your characteristics to the class via the tab page Characteristics.

RELEASE INDICATOR

A release indicator shows the release status of an RFQ.

Via the following settings, you can define the release indicators you need for your release
procedure:
The Released indicator is used to specify whether messages (RFQ documents in output
format) may be transmitted for an RFQ with this indicator. The Changeability indicator
shows the effect of changes to the RFQ (a change to an RFQ may require a new release
strategy to be determined, for instance). By means of the Value change field, you can
specify that the release strategy is to be re-started if an RFQ is changed and the value of an
RFQ item thereby increases by a certain percentage (e.g. 10%). Set the Changeability
indicator to "4 - Changeable, new release in case of new strategy or value change" or "6 -
Changeable, new release in case of new strategy or value change/outputted" and enter a
percentage in the Value change field.

The following release indicators are necessary for every release procedure:
Release indicator for initial status. If the RFQ is subject to a release strategy, it must
normally be released before it can be transmitted to the vendor. Therefore, when an RFQ is
created, it is assigned a release indicator that blocks it from being outputted in message
form. The Released indicator must not be selected for this indicator. Release indicator for
released status
This indicator is assigned to the RFQ when it is released. The Released indicator must be
selected for this indicator.

Material Management Step by Step Configuration

RELEASE STRATEGY

With the release prerequisites, you specify the order in which the individual release points
(individuals or departments) represented by the release codes may release the document.

Example

The following table shows release prerequisites for a strategy with four release codes.
Code/Release prerequisite

01 02 03 04
01 - [] [] []
02 [x] - [] []
03 [x] [x] - []
04 [x] [x] [x] -

In this release strategy, the codes 01, 02, 03, and 04 must successively release the RFQ.
Read the table from left to right. For instance, the third line for release code 03: For code
03, release via code 01 and code 02 is a prerequisite. That is to say, the RFQ must be
released via codes 01 and 02 before it can be released via code 03.

Release statuses
Here you specify the status an RFQ has after certain release points have affected release.
Specify which release indicator/status an RFQ is to have after having been released via a
certain release code.
Classification
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

In classification, you maintain the values assigned to the characteristics. Via the
characteristics and their values, you specify the RFQs to which your release strategy is
assigned.
Maintain values (individual values or intervals) for your characteristics.

Example

Two characteristics and their values have been maintained in classification for release
strategy 'EA':
- Document type - 'NB - standard purchase order'
- Total value - above 10,000
All POs with the document type 'NB' and a total value in excess of $10 ,000 are thus subject
to a release procedure with the release strategy 'EA'.

Release simulation

The release simulation function enables you to check which status an RFQ will achieve with
your release strategy if release is effected by a certain release point.

Choose "Simulate release" and release the document with the desired release code by
double-clicking. The system shows you which status the RFQ now has as a result of this
release.

Limit for Price Variance

When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO
item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master
record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.

Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a
tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.

In the SAP System, the types of variance are represented by the tolerance keys. For each
tolerance key, we can define percentage and value-dependent upper and lower limits per

CONDITION

DEFINE CONDITION TYPE

IMG Path: Material Management  Purchasing  Condition  Define Price


Determination Process  Define Condition Type

The condition types are used to represent pricing elements such as prices, discounts,
surcharges, taxes, or delivery costs in the SAP System. These are stored in the system in
condition records.

In a price calculation schema (which may also be termed a "pricing procedure"), we collect
together all the condition types that are automatically to be taken into account by the SAP
System in the process of price determination with regard to a business transaction.

Note that we can only also enter manually the condition types that are contained in the
calculation schema.

We can alter the result of the price determination process in the purchasing document
manually. We can limit the change options for a condition type in this step.

If we define our own condition types, the key should begin with the letter Z, as SAP keeps
these name slots free in the standard system.

We should not change the condition types that are included in the standard SAP System
supplied.

Actions

1. Check the extent to which you can use the condition types those are included in the
standard SAP system supplied.
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

2. Create new access sequences by copying and changing similar existing ones.
In doing so, you must specify the following:
Enter an alphanumeric key (which can have a maximum of 4 characters) for the condition
type, together with a descriptive text.
Specify an access sequence for the condition types. (For header conditions, you need not
specify an access sequence.)
3. Maintain the detail screen for the condition type.

Following Condition types are defined as per ABC Requirement.

DEFINE CALCULATION SCHEMA

IMG Path: Material Management  Purchasing  Condition  Define Price


Determination Process  Define Calculation Schema

In this step, you define the calculation schemas. In the MM area, a calculation schema - a
framework of steps used to calculate or determine something - is used among other things
to calculate costs, prices, period-end rebates, and taxes.

Note
In the calculation schema (pricing procedure), we specify which condition types are to be
taken into account in which sequence. In the price (or cost) determination process, the SAP
System automatically determines which calculation schema is valid for a business
transaction and takes into account, one after another, the condition types it contains.
The following calculation schemas are predefined in the standard system. You should not
change these schemas.

ZJRM00 ABC-IN: Purchasing


ZJIMP1ABC-IN: Import Purchasing

Control the price determination process in POs, quotations, and scheduling agreements.
Both calculation schemas require 2 condition types for the gross price: one for automatic
price determination (standard: PB00) and one for manual maintenance (standard: PBXX).

RM0001 and RM1001 Determine which condition types you can enter in purchasing
document headers with Time-Dependent Conditions (e.g. contracts).

RM0002, RM1002 determines which additional condition types you can enter in purchasing
document items with time-dependent conditions or in the Purchasing Info Record.

RMMP00 defines the condition type for determining the market price which can be entered
for each material.
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

ZRM200, ABC-Stock Transfer Document Controls the delivery cost determination process in
stock transport orders and stock transport scheduling agreements.

Enter a key (length max. six characters) for the schema you wish to create, and a descriptive
text.
For each schema, specify the condition types in the order of their usage, and maintain the
relevant data

specify whether the scores for the sub criteria are computed manually, semi-automatically,
or automatically.

Recommendation:
You can define up to 99 main criteria. Make sure you limit the main criteria to the most
important ones, so that lists do not become too crowded. We recommend a maximum of
eight main criteria.
Activities
1. Enter all further criteria you need and maintain a description/name (this appears
on screens and in dialog boxes) and a short text (appears as column heading in
ranking lists).

2. specify the sub criteria for each main criterion via Goto -> Sub criteria.
For each sub criterion, enter the scoring method. If you have created a user exit for
the sub criterion, enter it.

On the detail screen for the purchasing organization, define:

 General parameters

o The best score that a vendor can achieve (applies to all subcriteria).

o The maximum number of days data may exist in the system and still be taken
into account in the vendor evaluation (applies to all subcriteria).

o The calendar used for the computation of on-time delivery performance and
adherence to the confirmation date.

o The form (layout set) used to generate the vendor evaluation sheet. If you
make no entry, the standard form MELDRUCK is used.

 Price level

o Indicator showing whether or not the vendor is the only source of a material.

 Complaints level
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

o Percentage that indicates the maximum percentage of the total volume of


business done with a certain vendor that the costs associated with
complaints regarding materials supplied (and/or rejection thereof) may
reach. If this percentage is exceeded, the vendor is awarded the lowest score.

 Quality audit

o Indicator showing whether the average score of all quality audits is to be


taken, or whether the result of the most recent audit is to be used in
computing scores.

 On-time delivery performance

o The delivery time variance that counts as 100%.

o The minimum delivery quantity.

o The indicator showing whether or not the minimum delivery percentage is


adopted from the material master record.

 Smoothing factors
The smoothing factors for:

o The delivery date variance and the quality and timeliness of an externally
performed service.

o The quantity variance.

o Compliance with shipping instructions.

Note
The parameters for the subcriterion "on-time delivery performance" are also applied to the
subcriterion "quantity reliability".

DEFINE NUMBER ASSIGNMENT FOR ACCOUNT DOCUMENTS

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Number Assignment  Define Number Assignment for Accounting
Documents

In this step, you set the number ranges for the accounting documents which are created
when goods movements or inventory differences are posted.

 Accounting documents in inventory management

For accounting-relevant goods movements, the system creates two different


documents:

o Material Document

o Accounting Document

Both the material documents and the accounting documents have their own
document numbers. When inventory differences are posted, the system also creates
an accounting document for the physical inventory document. In this step, you only
maintain the number assignment for accounting documents.

 Document types

Accounting documents are split into document types to allow differentiated


document number assignment, which is the basis for distinguishing between the
various accounting operations. A number range is assigned to each document type.
In a company code, you have to define number intervals for each number range and
fiscal year.
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

In inventory management, the transaction determines which document type is used.

Activities

We have to add new document types to satisfy your requirements:


A. Define a new document type under Financial accounting document.
B. Types.
C. Assign a number range to the document type.
D. Under Financial accounting number ranges, define the year-related number intervals
for the given number range in your company code. If you do not want to use the
year-related number assignment method, enter 9999 in the Year field.

GOODS ISSUE / TRANSFER POSTING

In this section, we make the system settings for the following Goods Movements:

 Goods issues

 Transfer postings

 Other movements excluding goods receipts (for example, Inventory Difference


Postings)
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

CREATE STORAGE LOCATION AUTOMATICALLY

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Goods Issue / Transfer Posting  Create Storage Location Automatically

In this step, you specify whether the automatic creation of storage location data is allowed
for goods issues and transfer postings. This is advisable if you work with negative stocks and
a material's first movement may be an outward movement.

Note that the reversal movement for a goods issue, for example, movement type 202 or
262, is not considered as an issue but as a receipt. If you only use the automatic creation of
storage location data for reversals of goods issues, you do not have to allow negative stocks.

You have to allow automatic creation per plant first of all. You then have to explicitly allow
the creation of storage location data for each movement type. The storage location data is
only created if the quantity is posted to 'standard' storage location stock. It is not created
for receipts into a special stock (for example, into sales order stock).

Activities

1. Enter for each plant whether the automatic creation of storage location data is
generally allowed.
2. Specify the movement types for which storage location data is created
automatically.

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Goods Issue / Transfer Posting  Create Storage Location Automatically

In this step, you specify whether negative stocks are allowed for unrestricted-use stock in
the valuation area, in the plant, and in the storage location.

Negative stocks are necessary, for example, when goods issues are entered for
organizational reasons prior to the corresponding goods receipts and the material is already
physically located in the warehouse.

Once the goods receipts have been posted, the book inventory balance must again
correspond to the physical stock, that is, the book inventory balance may no longer be
negative.

Negative stocks are always a sign that physical movements must be be entered in the
system at a later stage.

ACTIVITIES
Remove Tik against all the ABC Plant & its respective storage location as No Negative
Stock Allowed in ABC, as per their requirement.

GOODS RECEIPT

In this section, you complete the system settings for the following goods movements:

 goods receipt with reference to a purchase order or production order

 goods receipt without reference

 other receipts (initial entry of stock balances, stock transfer)


Material Management Step by Step Configuration

SET TOLERANCE LIMIT

In this step, you set the tolerance limits for goods receipts.

When processing a goods receipt, the system checks each item to determine whether the
goods receipt varies from the purchase order or the material master data. The different
types of variances are defined by tolerance keys. For each tolerance key, tolerance limits
can be set per company code.

The following variances are checked in Inventory Management:

 Variance in the purchase order price quantity

For this variance, two tolerance keys are provided:

o Tolerance key B1 (error message)

You use tolerance key B1 to define the maximum percentage variance. If the
variance is greater than the maximum variance, the system creates an error
message. The user cannot post the goods receipt.

o Tolerance key B2 (warning message)

Tolerance key B2 defines the percentage variance from which a warning


message is to be issued. It is possible to post the goods receipt.

 Variance for the moving average price of the material

You use tolerance key VP to define the percentage variance from which a warning
message is issued. This warning message indicates a price change.

CREATE PURCHASE ORDER AUTOMATICALLY

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Goods Receipt  Create Purchase Order Automatically

In this step, you define for each movement type whether a purchase order is automatically
created when a goods receipt is posted. When it is, the user can enter a goods movement
without entering the purchase order number, using the Goods receipt for purchase order
function. The system valuates the goods receipt at the price defined in the purchasing info
record.

Requirements

In Customizing for organizational structure, the plant must be assigned a purchasing


organization in the step Standard purchasing organization - assign plant so that the system
can determine the purchasing info records.

Activities

Maintain the indicator for the required movement types. You can only use the movement
types that are used for entering goods receipts for purchase orders: Movement types 101
and 161). Movements to GR blocked stock are not possible using this function.

In this step, you can define that the SAP System automatically suggests the delivery-
completed indicator for goods receipts if the delivered quantity lies within the under/over
delivery tolerance.

The "Delivery Completed" indicator has the following effects:

 The item is regarded as closed, even if the total quantity was not delivered.

 A further delivery is not expected, may, however, arrive.

 In the next goods receipt, the item appears on the selection list but has no selection
indicator.

 The item can be reorganized even if the total quantity has not been delivered.

In this step, you specify for each movement type whether, with GR-based invoice
verification, a reversal with reference to the purchase order or a return delivery can be
entered, even if the invoice relating to the goods receipt document has already been
posted. If reversals are not allowed, you must cancel the invoice before you enter the
reversal of the goods receipt or the return delivery. If reversals are allowed, you can post
the material document and enter cancel the invoice at a later time. If you do not wish to
cancel the invoice, you can enter the goods receipt with reference to the reversal document
or the return delivery, so that the reference to the invoice continues to exist.

PRICE DIFFERENCES FOR SUB CONTRACT AT GOODS RECEIPT

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Goods Receipt  Price Differences for Sub Contract at Goods Receipt

In this step, you configure for each valuation area whether price differences are generated
for a subcontract order at the time of a goods receipt if the manufactured material is
managed at standard price and the standard price varies from the receipt value (externally
performed service + value of components + delivery costs).

Example

Finished product: 400 (value at standard price)

Reservation  Define Default Value

In this step, you specify the default values for the following functions for each plant:

 Allow goods movements for reservations


 Delete reservations
 Create storage-location stock data automatically for reservations
 Allow movements for reservations

You can only post a goods movement with reference to a reservation if the Movement
allowed indicator is set in the reservation item. You set this indicator as described below:

o When Creating the Reservation


Material Management Step by Step Configuration

In so doing, goods movements involving this reservation are immediately


allowed. In this step, you can define whether the indicator is to appear as a
default value or not.

o When making a manual change to the reservation


o Through the reservations management program

In this step, you can define a limit specifying for how long movements are
allowed. The management program sets the Movement allowed indicator for
all reservation items whose requirements date lies within this limit.

 Delete reservations

The management program sets the deletion indicator for reservation items whose
requirements date is earlier than the number of days specified here.

 Create storage-location stock data automatically for reservations

When this indicator is set, the storage-location stock data is automatically created
when a reservation is posted. This applies both to planned outward movements and
planned receipts.

ALLOW FREEZING OF BOOK INVENTORY BALANCE IN STORAGE LOCATION

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Physical Inventory  Allow Freezing of Book Inventory Balance in Storage
Location

In this step, you determine whether the book inventory balances of items in a physical
inventory document, which have not yet been counted, can be frozen in the storage
location. The frozen inventory balance is recorded in the physical inventory document. It is
relevant to calculating inventory differences.

Example

You have physically counted all items in a physical inventory document, but have not yet
entered the count results in the system for all items. For one of these items, the book
inventory balance is 100 pieces. 90 pieces were counted, corresponding to a difference of 10
pieces. You freeze the book inventory balance of 100 pieces in the physical inventory
document. Before you enter the count, a goods receipt of 20 pieces is posted. The current
book inventory balance is now 120 pieces. For the physical inventory document, however,
the book inventory balance of 100 pieces continues to be relevant. If the inventory balance
had not been frozen, there would have been a difference of 30 pieces for the item.

DEFINE TOLERANCES FOR PHYSICAL INVENTORY DIFFERENCES

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Physical Inventory  Define Tolerance for Physical Inventory Differences

In this step, you create user groups and define value tolerances for these user groups for the
posting of inventory differences.

You can specify two tolerances:

 Maximum amount per physical inventory document


 Maximum amount per document item

If a document exceeds the document tolerance defined for the user group, the user is not
allowed to post any inventory differences for this document. If the total value of the
document lies below the document tolerance but some items exceed the maximum amount
per item, the user may not post the differences for these items. He or she can process the
other items.

Activities

 Under Physical inventory tolerance group, you define the individual user groups with
the corresponding value tolerances per company code and currency.
 Under User name, you assign the individual users to a group. If you want to assign an
inventory tolerance group to all existing users, you can enter * instead of having to
enter the users individually.

CYCLE COUNTING

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Physical Inventory  Cycle Counting

In this step, you complete the system settings for the physical inventory method of cycle
counting by defining the individual cycle counting indicators for the given plant. The cycle
counting indicators are used to group the materials together into individual categories.
Normally, the cycle counting indicators are assigned when an ABC analysis is run. However,
different indicators can be defined, if necessary.

Activities

1. Define the allowed cycle counting indicators in the plant.


2. Make the required settings for each indicator.
Remember that the total of the percentages must be 100 if you want to assign the
indicator to the individual materials as part of an ABC analysis.

No. of phys. inventories per fiscal year for cycle counting


Specifies how often during the fiscal year a physical inventory is to be carried out for a
material subject to cycle counting. The system uses this specification to convert the count
interval into workdays.

Physical inventory interval (in workdays) for cycle counting

Specifies after how many workdays following the last inventory count another physical
inventory has to be carried out for a given material. The count interval is determined
automatically on the basis of the number of physical inventories specified for the fiscal year

Float time (in workdays) for cycle counting

Indicates the number of workdays by which the planned count date may vary from the
current date.
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

Examples
For the plant, the float time is five days. A physical inventory has been planned for a
material belonging to category C for June, 1. On expiration of the float time (after June, 6),
the physical inventory has not yet been carried out. Irrespective of the category, the
material is parked for the next cycle counting run.

Percentage of performance measure for cycle counting ind.

Specifies the percentage allocation of the materials to the individual cycle counting
categories.
The percentage value is used for automatic assignment of the cycle counting indicator.

IMG Path: Material Management  Inventory Management and Physical Inventory 


Movement Type  Copy Change Movement Type

 Change the setting of existing movement types


 Define new movement types

When you enter a goods Movement, you must always enter the movement type. The
movement type has important control functions in Inventory Management. It is essential for

 Updating the quantity fields


 Updating the stock and consumption accounts
 Selection of the fields used for entering documents
 Printing goods receipt/issue slips

Movement types have an important control function. In particular, they play a major role in
updating the stock quantity and stock value in the material master record. Changing some of
the indicators (such as the quantity string or value string) is considered a modification.
Please note that update errors resulting from incorrect settings for a movement type are
modification-based errors and as such cannot be corrected by the SAP Hotline.

SPLIT VALUATION

Split valuation enables us to valuate sub stocks of a material in different ways (for example,
according to external procurement or in-house production or by batches or imported or
local ect).

ACTIVATE SPLIT VALUATION

IMG Path: Material Management  Valuation and Account Assignment  Split


Valuation  Activate Split Valuation

In this step, you configure whether split valuation is allowed at your company. If you
generally allow split valuation, this does not mean that you must valuate each material on
this basis. You decide whether to do so or not for a particular material when creating the
material master record.

A lot of effort is required to change this setting once it has been made.

Actions for changing split material valuation

To change split material valuation once it has been set, you must

1. First post out all stocks (for example, to a cost center or with movement type 562)
2. Then change the control parameters
3. If necessary, change the automatic account determination
4. Finally post the stocks back in again
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

CONFIGURE SPLIT VALUATION

IMG Path: Material Management  Valuation and Account Assignment  Split


Valuation  Configure Split Valuation

In split valuation, you can distinguish between partial stocks of a material according to
certain criteria and valuate them separately. The material stock is divided according to
valuation category and valuation type:

 The valuation category determines how the partial stocks are divided, that is,
according to which criteria.
 The valuation type describes the characteristics of the individual stocks.

With the function "Setting" you can determine:

 Which valuation categories exist in your company (global categories)


 Which valuation types exist in your company (global types)
 Which valuation types belong to which valuation category
 Which valuation categories exist in a valuation area (local categories)

GLOBAL TYPE

ACCOUNT DETERMINATION

In this section, you make the configurations relevant to transactions in Inventory


Management (for example, goods movements ) and in Invoice Verification (for example,
invoice receipt for automatic postings to G/L accounts in Financial Accounting and Cost
Accounting).

You must make these configurations only in conjunction with your Financial Accounting
department.

Determination  Account Determination without wizard  Define Price
Control

For account determination, you can group together valuation areas by activating the
valuation grouping code. This makes the configuration of automatic postings much easier.

GROUP TOGETHER VALUATION AREA

IMG Path: Material Management  Valuation and Account Assignment  Account


Determination  Account Determination without wizard  Group
together Valuation Area

In this step, you assign valuation areas to a valuation grouping code. The valuation grouping
code makes it easier to set automatic account determination. Within the chart of accounts,
you assign the same valuation grouping code to the valuation areas you want to assign to
the same account. Valuation grouping codes either reflect a fine distinction within a chart of
accounts or they correspond to a chart of accounts.

Within a chart of accounts, you can use the valuation grouping code

DEFINE VALUATION CLASS

IMG Path: Material Management  Valuation and Account Assignment  Account


Determination  Account Determination without wizard  Define
Valuation Class

In this step, you define which valuation classes are allowed for a material type. If a user
creates a material, he must enter the material's valuation class in the accounting data. The
System uses default settings to check whether the valuation class is allowed for the material
type.
The valuation class is a group of materials with the same account determination. If a
transaction is to be posted to different accounts depending on the valuation class, create an
account determination for each valuation class in the step Create automatic postings. The
valuation classes allowed depend on the material type. Several valuation classes are
generally allowed for one material type. A valuation class can also be allowed for several
material types. The link between the valuation classes and the material types is set up via
the account category reference. The account category reference is a combination of
valuation classes. Precisely one account category reference is assigned to a material type.

Automatic Posting

In this step, you enter the system settings for Inventory Management and Invoice
Verification transactions for automatic postings to G/L accounts. Postings are made to G/L
accounts automatically in the case of Invoice Verification and Inventory Management
transactions relevant to Financial and Cost Accounting

TRANSACTION = AUM Expense/revenue from stock transfer

This transaction is used for transfer postings from one material to another if the complete
value of the issuing material cannot be posted to the value of the receiving material. This
applies both to materials with standard price control and to materials with moving average
price control. Price differences can arise for materials with moving average price if stock
levels are negative and the stock value becomes unrealistic as a result of the posting.
Transaction AUM can be used irrespective of whether the transfer posting involves a
transfer between plants. The expenditure/income is added to the receiving material.

Following G/L Accounts are Assign as per ABC Requirement.

DEBIT CREDIT

TRANSACTION = BSV Change in stock account

Changes in stocks are posted in Inventory Management at the time goods receipts are
recorded or subsequent adjustments made with regard to subcontract orders. If the account
assigned here is defined as a cost element, you must specify a preliminary account
assignment for the account in the table of automatic account assignment specification
(Customizing for Controlling) in order to be able to post goods receipts against subcontract
orders. In the standard system, cost center SC-1 is defined for this purpose.

TRANSACTION = BSX Inventory posting

This transaction is used for all postings to stock accounts. Such postings are effected, for
example:
In inventory management in the case of goods receipts to own stock and goods issues from
own stock
In invoice verification, if price differences occur in connection with incoming invoices for
materials valuated at moving average price and there is adequate stock coverage. In order
settlement, if the order is assigned to a material with moving average price and the actual
costs at the time of settlement vary from the actual costs at the time of goods receipt
Because this transaction is dependent on the valuation class, it is possible to manage
materials with different valuation classes in separate stock accounts.

Caution
Take care to ensure that:
A stock account is not used for any transaction other than BSX
Postings are not made to the account manually.
The account is not changed in the productive system before all stock has been booked out
of it
Otherwise differences would arise between the total stock value of the material master
records and the balance on the stock account.

TRANSACTION = KBS Account-assigned purchase order

You cannot assign this transaction/event key to an account. It means that the account
assignment is adopted from the purchase order and is used for the purpose of determining
the posting keys for the goods receipt.

TRANSACTION = KDM Materials management exchange rate difference

Exchange rate differences in the case of open items arise when an invoice relating to a
purchase order is posted with a different exchange rate to that of the goods receipt and the
material cannot be debited or credited due to standard price control or stock under
coverage/shortage

Material Management Step by Step Configuration

An exchange rate rounding difference can arise in the case of an invoice made out in a
foreign currency. If a difference arises when the posting lines are translated into local
currency (as a result of rounding), the system automatically generates a posting line for this
rounding difference.

Consignment liabilities arise in the case of withdrawals from consignment stock or from a
pipeline or when consignment stock is transferred to own stock. Depending on the settings
for the posting rules for the transaction/event key KON, it is possible to work with or
without account modification. If you work with account modification, the following
modifications are available in the standard system:

TRANSACTION = PRD Cost (price) differences

Price differences arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements
and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples: goods receipts
against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the standard priced), goods issues in
respect of which an external amount is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the
PO price and the standard price).
Material Management Step by Step Configuration

Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is
not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the
negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences
arising are posted to a price difference account.

TRANSACTION = UPF Unplanned delivery costs

Unplanned delivery costs are delivery costs (incidental procurement costs) that were not
planned in a purchase order (e.g. freight, customs duty). In the SAP posting transaction in
Logistics Invoice Verification, instead of distributing these unplanned delivery costs among
all invoice items as hitherto, you have the option of posting them to a special account. A
separate tax code can be used for this account.

TRANSACTION = WRX GR/IR clearing account

Postings to the GR/IR clearing account occur in the case of goods and invoice receipts
against purchase orders. You must set the Balances in local currency only indicator for the
GR/IR clearing account to enable the open items to be cleared.

MAINTAIN DEFAULT VALUE FOR TAX CODES

IMG Path: Material Management  Logistic Invoice Verification  Incoming Invoice


 Maintain Default Value for Tax Codes

In this step, you define for each company code which tax code(s) the SAP System suggests
when you enter incoming invoices.

 Domestic invoices

You can define tax codes for invoices that you receive from within your own country.

 Invoices with unplanned expenses

You can define tax codes for invoices with unplanned expenses. These are used if
you post to a separate account in Logistics Invoice Verification

Make Entry for Company Code 1000 ABC Limited

CONFIGURE HOW EXCHANGE RATE DIFFERENCES ARE TREATED


Material Management Step by Step Configuration

IMG Path: Material Management  Logistic Invoice Verification  Incoming Invoice


 Configure How Exchange Rate Differences are treated

In this activity, you set how exchange rate differences should be calculated for invoices in
foreign currencies.

 The exchange rate differences are calculated from the exchange rate at the time of
the goods receipt and the exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt.
 The exchange rate differences are calculated from the exchange rate at the time of
the invoice receipt and the assumed exchange rate, which is valid for a specific
period of time, such as a year or a season.
 No exchange rate differences will be calculated. Instead, the differences from
exchange rate fluctuations will be considered price differences and posted to a price
difference account.

CONFIGURE HOW UNPLANNED DELIVERY COST ARE POSTED

IMG Path: Material Management  Logistic Invoice Verification  Incoming Invoice


 Configure How Exchange Rate Differences are treated

In this step, you specify how the system posts unplanned delivery costs in Logistics Invoice
Verification.

There are two options:

 Unplanned delivery costs are distributed among the individual items in proportion to
the item amounts invoiced so far and the item amounts in the current invoice.

o The amounts determined are added to the respective item amounts.


o The amounts determined are posted in a separate line for each item.

 Unplanned delivery costs are posted in a separate line. You must enter a specific tax
code for the posting. You can define a default value for this in Maintain Default
Values for Tax Codes.

 Configure Vendor Specific Tolerances

In this step, you define tolerance groups for each company code. You can assign these
tolerance groups to each vendor in the vendor master record. If the difference is within the
tolerance range, the system automatically generates a difference line on a neutral
income/expense account for small differences for invoices with debit/credit differences
when posting the invoice.

When processing an invoice, the System checks each item for variances between the invoice
and the purchase order or goods receipt. The different types of variances are defined in
tolerance keys.

The system uses the following tolerance keys to check for variances:

1000 ABC Limited AN Amount for item without order reference
1000 ABC Limited AP Amount for item with order reference
1000 ABC Limited BD Form small differences automatically
