Multiple Valuation Approaches: Check Deactivation / Perform Deactivation

In this activity, you deactivate the currency and valuation profile in the controlling area. You can do this provided that no transaction data has yet been posted with parallel valuation approaches.

Example

It might be necessary to deactivate parallel valuation approaches if

Requirements

The system only allows you to deactivate parallel valuation approaches under the conditions detailed below:

CO

No transaction data can be posted in any actual version other than Version 0. It is possible to set the operative version back to version 0.

CO-PA

The operating concern to which the controlling area in question is assigned may not contain data from the profit center valuation view (2).

Material Ledger

You must not yet have gone productive with the material ledger.

In urgent cases, you can reverse the production startup for the material ledger and then deactivate the parallel valuation approaches (if no reconciliation postings have been made to FI). Note, however, that you must reverse the production startup in its entirety. If you do this, certain Customizing settings in Material Ledger will be lost. You will have to make these settings again before going productive once more.

FI

No data from the group valuation view (1) or the profit center valuation view (2 ) must have been posted to any general ledger account.

Recommendation

Due to the scale of the checks which the program makes, it is recommended that you execute the program in the background (Program -> Execute in background).

Activities

Deactivate the currency and valuation profile in the controlling area.

If necessary, you can set back your operative version to version 0. You do this in the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Customizing Create versions for valuations (transaction OKEQ), Settings in the controlling area.

If you only want to deactivate the parallel valuation approaches/transfer prices temporarilly, for example to insert minor corrections, it is not normally necessary to set back the version. However, if you want to deactivate the parallel valuation approaches/transfer prices permanently, use version 0 as the operative version.

Now start transaction 8KEQ and delete the corresponding assignment of the currency and valuation profile to the controlling area in question.

Now delete the corresponding currency and valuation profile using transaction 8KEM.

Now deactivate the material ledger in the valuation areas in question using transaction OMX1.

If profit center valuation updating is active in the component CO-PA, deactivate this uding transaction KEKG.
