 Strategy Sequence for Goods Receipt Valuation

When goods are received in SAP Automotive, the price used to valuate the sales order stock is determined on the basis of the following strategy sequence:

  1. The system reads the price entered in the stock segment for the sales order.

  2. The system determines the price based on your enhancement COPCP002 ( Material Valuation of Valuated Sales Order Stock ).

  3. The system calculates a standard price based on a sales order cost estimate. If the system cannot find a valid sales order cost estimate, it creates a goods receipt cost estimate. Usually no sales order cost estimate is available, so a goods receipt cost estimate is created.

    If you have activated the enhancement GRCOST01 ( User Exit for Goods Receipt Sales Order Cost Estimate ), it will be called up after costing. You can use the enhancement to check the plausibility of the costing result. If the check does not yield an acceptable value, you can set the price according to your own logic or force an error message. In this case, you can save the itemization of a cost estimate with the status KA (no errors), even if this is normally not possible. If the cost estimate could not be executed or contained errors, the enhancement gives you the option of setting the price or of accepting the value of the cost estimate with errors. Alternatively, you can have the system issue an error message that terminates the valuation process.

  4. The system reads the standard price entered in the material master for the configurable material. If you want to prevent the system from using this price, you must ensure that no such price exists in the material master. In such cases, an error message is issued.

If no price can be determined during the evaluation of the goods receipt, an error occurs. The goods receipt is not posted with values and must be postprocessed.
