Dear Santosh,

Valuation category is used if you want to have a split valuation i.e. you have an option of differentiating partial stocks of material according to particular criteria & handling them differently regarding valuation within a plant.

Why Required? : 1)Your valuation of in-house & external procurement may be different

2) Distinguish based on Quality so value

3)Different batches have different value

Valuation category could be In House/External , Indian / Imported

Following configuration reqd.

1)In global setting we have to define Valuation category( Say P-Procurement) & Valuation type( Int. / Ext)

2) Active split valuation in MM

3) Assign valuation type to category in customizing

5) In Material Master enter valuation category in accounting view & choose price control V

6) Extend Material Master view for both valuation type

7) valuation category to be active /assign for plant

😎 In local definition Define Valuation category to Valuation area.

Then for every transaction (Valuation relevant) may be GR, GI, and Phy. Inventory you must mention valuation type during transaction to get your material valuated separately.

This is all about valuation category & valuation type,
