How to check the Valuation level?

[Vijayendra · Accepted solution]

Hello hemylong,

Usually in earlier ERP solution, SAP provided the option to choose either Plant or Company Code to valuate your material stocks. Once it is set, it is not possible to switch the valuation level from plant to company code or vice-versa unless data conversion (material master's accounting data) is carried out again. Also SAP recommends to set material valuation at Plant level because you can have separation set of account determination and stock type at each plant and it is important that stocks must be valuated at Plant level,

But in S/4 Cloud valuation happens at the Plant level which is maintained in backend transaction OX14 where as the same is not available for customer to maintain as there is no SSCUI.

ERP transaction OMSK reference is available in cloud in form of below SSCUIs;

- Account Category Reference/Material Type (SSCUI: 102423)

- Valuation Classes (SSCUI: 102424)

- Account category Reference (SSCUI: 102425)

- Automatic account determination (SSCUI: 100297)

--> So you can use them in maintaining the valuation classes and can extend the same material for different plants having different valuation class, but if the current data is existing then you cannot change the valuation class of existing data as this is not possible because one or more of the following already exist for the material:

- Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period

- Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines

- Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place

Additionally refer to the note 2897035 for Automatic Account Determination in S/4 HANA Cloud.

Best Regards,
