Use

Generally not all stock keeping units (grid values and category values) of an AFS material have identical procurement costs or production costs. Different procurement prices, raw material consumption and production costs can require different inventory valuation of the stock keeping units of an AFS material (see AFS Quantity Structure).

Features

With the R/3 function split valuation, partial quantities of a material can be valuated separately. There could be several reasons for this, such as the difference between in-house production or external procurement as well as distinction by status, quality or batches.

The AFS system uses the standard functions of the split valuation and thus the automatic split valuation for AFS materials is possible at the stock keeping unit (SKU) level. This way you can manage split material valuation prices for the stock keeping units of an AFS material.

Caution

Please note that you cannot split valuate AFS materials according to additional criteria (such as origin) if they already have split valuated stock keeping units.
