Hi,

The business process may be different .So ,you are going for split valuation. Split Valuation is used to maintain to two different prices for same material.

Lets Example: You are procuring raw material u201CMu201D of price Rs.45/- per Kg and manufacturing final products u201CPu201D. In any situation your company may got order of double quantity of final products u201CPu201D and u need to order more raw material u201CMu201D to cater the requirement. So you need to order raw material u201CMu201D from different vendor( same vendor may not able to supply) and you may not get same price as earlier of raw material u201CMu201D, so the price is now of price Rs.50/- per Kg( As it is immediate requirement). In this situation , you may go for split valuation not with material maintaining 2 material master records to maintain 2 different prices.

Note:

The Split Valuation settings are as follow:

1.SPRO> MM>VALN AND ACC ASSIGNMENT> SPLIT VALUATION> Acitvate Split Valuation

2.SPRO> MM>VALN AND ACC ASSIGNMENT> SPLIT VALUATION> Configure Split Valuation

Click on Golbal type: create your own valuation types as Type 1, Type 2 etc

Click on Global categories:create your own Valuation Category as Type(T) and

Activate all valuation types(Type1, Type2 ) for your category(T)

Goto MM01, enter materialu2026u2026u2026u20261st enter valuation category and save & again enter MM01 enter the Valuation type as Type 1 and maintain price for it and repeat the same for all the Types.

When you create a PO for split valuated material it will ask for valuation type and you can enter your required valuation type and save.
