Use

You use valuation for a single batch if you want to separate costs for externally processed batches from costs for internally processed batches, and if you want to keep the price and value of each individual batch in inventory management on a value basis.

Integration

Valuation for a single batch is carried out using separate values, just as partial stocks for a material are distinguished according to origin, for example. In valuation for a single batch, a separate characteristic category is created for each batch (batch number = characteristic category).

Valuation for a single batch is a special kind of valuation type for batches.
