Hi

1. First be sure that no stocks in actual AND previous period exist ! see note 30656, with an example how to get zero stocks.

2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all po items of the related material. If you find items with LOEKZ <> 'L' you have to delete them in

ME22.

3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant. If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible. You have to archive these production order(s) (see note 146241).

This hard restriction is necessary as inconsistencies in account assignment will follow after change of val.cass, when proceeding follow up functions of a po item before and after changing valuation class.

1.Close the all Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines.

2.Deleted the Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place.

3. Down the stock using MoT 562.

After this change the valuation class and again upload the same stock using 561.

This may help you.
