In this step, you assign costing keys to material types for each point of valuation, record type, and plan version (for plan data).

This assignment determines when and for which record type and plan version which product cost estimates are to be read for a specific material type.

You can assign up to three costing keys to each material type for a given "Valid to" date. This means that you can valuate the data using up to three different cost estimates at the same time. The system processes these cost estimates in the order in which the corresponding costing keys are entered on the screen.

Example

PV  RecT   Plan ver.   Mat.type  Valid to    C.key 1 C.key 2 C.key 3
01   F                   MT01   31.12.2002       001     002
02   F                   MT01   31.12.2002       001

Further notes

In order to valuate CO-PA line items using material cost estimates in Product Cost Planning, you must define your valuation strategy so that the system accesses product costing for the desired point of valuation.

If you are valuating using more than one costing key, note that a value field can only be filled by valuation if it is empty. In other words, each value field can only be filled once, and is never overwritten.

The system follows certain rules for determining which costing keys to use:

  1. First it checks whether one or more costing keys has been assigned to the product being valuated. If so, it valuates the data using only those costing keys.
  2. If no costing key is assigned to the product, the system checks whether any costing keys have been assigned to the material type of the product. If so, the data is valuated only using those costing keys.
  3. If no costing keys have been assigned to the material type, the system then checks whether any costing keys have been assigned to other characteristics using the flexible assignment function. If no costing keys are found in this manner, the transaction cannot be valuated using a material cost estimate.
    Likewise, no valuation is carried out if an entry exists in one of these assignment tables but does not contain a costing key.

Activities

Define which costing keys should be used for which material types. If you want to specify costing keys according to another characteristic instead of material types, proceed to the next step.
