In this step you create a valuation variant that contains all parameters for the valuation of the items in the unit cost estimate for the sales order, inquiry, or quotation.

You create valuation strategies for the following objects:

  • Material components

    Here you specify the sequence in which the system is to look for prices in the accounting view and the costing details screen of the material master record to valuate the material.

  • Activity types and processes

    Here you specify the sequence in which the system is to look for prices in Cost Center Accounting or Activity-Based Costing to valuate the activity types or business processes.

    You also specify from what plan version the prices are derived. You can, however, also use the actual prices of the previous period for valuation. Irrespective of how you valuate the activities and processes of the period, you can revaluate the activity types and processes at actual prices during period-end closing.

Strategy sequences

You define the individual valuation rates of the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of the material components you define, for example, a strategy sequence that reads the fields of the material master record in the following sequence:

  1. Planned price 1
  2. Standard price
  3. Moving average price

The first nonzero price is used to valuate the material component.

To be able to use the valuation variant in costing, you must assign the valuation variant to a costing variant.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

  • The standard system contains a number of predefined price strategies.
    • Seventeen price strategies are currently available for material valuation. You can select up to five strategies for each valuation variant.
    • Five price strategies are available for internal activities. You can select up to three activity prices for each valuation variant.
  • The standard system contains predefined valuation variants. If necessary, you can adapt these valuation variants to your requirements by changing the standard strategy sequences.

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Enter an alphanumerical key and a name for the new valuation variant.
  2. Define a valuation strategy for material components by entering up to five values as the search sequence.
  3. Define a valuation strategy for internal activities by entering up to three values as the search sequence and assigning a plan version from from Cost Center Accounting to this valuation variant.
  4. Assign the valuation variant to a costing variant.

Further notes

The overhead for the sales order item is calculated in a costing sheet that is proposed through the requirements class.

Note

If you want to use different valuation strategies or different overhead rates in plants that belong to the same company code, you can define plant-specific valuation variants by assigning a valuation variant to a plant. Choose the push button Valuation variant/plant. If you don't do this, the valuation variants apply to all your plants.
