Answer 1

Procedure If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows: a) Post the stocks of the material to an interim account. b) Change the valuation class in the material master record. c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account. If open purchase orders already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase order items for deletion. If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to Deleted.
