In this step, you can define your valuation strategies and assign them to a point of valuation.
First, enter a three-character key and a description for the valuation strategy.
On the detail screen, you can then define which
methods you want to use in what order to perform valuation in your operating
concern.
You want to define a valuation strategy that
performs valuation using material costing, then a CO-PA costing sheet, then a
customer-defined valuation routine. To do so, make the following entries:
Sequence Appl. Costg sheet name Mat. CE Qty field Exit no.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
10 X VVIQT
20 KE ACT001 VVIQT
30 U01
If you want to use a material cost estimate for valuation, select the field under "Mat. CE". In this case you also need to specify the quantity field to be used (here "VVIQT").
If you want to use conditions, enter the key (here "ACT001") and the application from which to take the costing sheet (here "KE"). If the conditions are calculated depending on the quantity, enter the name of the quantity field you want to use (here "VVIQT").
If you want to use your own calculation routines to valuate fields, enter the name of the program exit (here "U01"). For programming your own routines, you can use the customer exit in SAP standard enhancement COPA0002, which you maintain by calling up SAP Project Management. For more details, see the documentation found there and in the F1 Help for the field Exit no.
If you want to valuate with a transfer price, you need to specify a variant for transfer pricing. In addition, you need to specify the CO-PA value field to which the transfer price should be mapped.
Once you have defined your valuation strategies, assign them to the desired combinations of point of valuation, record type, and plan version.
