Preparation of LIFO Valuation

When you implement LIFO valuation in the system, you generally want to create layers for earlier settlement periods. You have the following options:

  • If you have previously carried out LIFO valuation in another system, your system administrators can copy the layers from that system to the system.

    See Adopting External Data

  • If you use LIFO valuation for the first time with the system, you can derive the so-called base layer from old stock data in the material master record.
