In this step, you activate the material ledger for one or more valuation areas.

If the material ledger is active for a particular valuation area, all materials in the valuation area are valuated using the material ledger.

Standard settings

In the standard system, the material ledger is not activated for any valuation area.

Recommendation

If you activate the material ledger for a plant, you should also activate it for all the other plants in the company code. This ensures that the accounts in Financial Accounting and Materials Management are reconciled.

Damage caused to data by errors

It is currently only possible to deactivate the material ledger if no material movement data exists in the valuation area.

Activities

You can transfer settings between systems (for example, from a test client to a target client). If you wish to do this, the system must check the data that exists there, to determine whether the material ledger can be activated. This check does not take place in Customizing, you have to trigger it in the application menu when you convert data for the material ledger as part of production start-up.

If you want to activate the material ledger, proceed as follows:

1. Decide on the valuation areas in which the material ledger is to be activated.
2. Set the Material ledger active indicator for the relevant valuation areas.
3. Set the indicator Material ledger settlement: control in the material master and, if necessary, the indicator Settlement control mandatory in valuation area
4. Save your entries.
5. If you use the parallel currency valuation functions, check that the settings are consistent in Customizing:
   Check settings
6. Transport the settings to the target client.
7. Check the settings in the target client by choosing Accounting -> Controlling -> Actual costing/material ledger, then Tools -> Check Customizing.
8. Convert the data in the target client for all active valuation areas by choosing Accounting -> Controlling -> Actual cost/material ledger, then Tools -> Production Startup -> Production Startup.

Further notes

For further information on the material ledger and production startup, see Actual costing/material ledger.
