You create a valuation variant that contains the parameters for the valuation of the costing items in detailed planning of the primary cost elements of a cost center.

You create valuation strategies for the materials that are used at the cost center. You define the sequence in which the system searches for prices in the accounting view and the costing view in the material master record to valuate the materials.

Strategy sequences

You define the individual valuation bases of the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of the material components, for example, you define 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 price that is not zero 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.

Standard settings

The standard system contains predefined valuation variants. You can modify these valuation variants to suit your requirements by changing the standard strategy sequences. Seventeen price strategies are currently available for material valuation. You can select up to five strategies for each valuation variant.

Actions

  1. Enter an alphanumeric key and a text for the new valuation variant.
  2. Define a valuation strategy for material components by entering up to five values as the search sequence.
  3. Assign the valuation variant to a costing variant.

Note on transport

To transport valuation variants manually, choose Table view -> Transport.
