• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M7051 - Material & & not subject to split valuation ?

  The SAP error message M7051, which states "Material & & not subject to split valuation," typically occurs when you are trying to perform a transaction that involves split valuation for a material that is not configured to allow it. Split valuation in SAP allows you to manage different valuations for the same material based on various criteria, such as quality, origin, or procurement type.
  Cause:
  
  Material Configuration: The material in question is not set up for split valuation in the material master record. This means that the system does not recognize it as a material that can have multiple valuations.
  Valuation Type: The valuation type for the material is not defined, or the material is not assigned to a valuation category that supports split valuation.
  Transaction Type: The transaction you are trying to perform (e.g., goods receipt, invoice verification) requires split valuation, but the material is not configured to support it.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Record:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03).
  Check the "Accounting" view and look for the "Valuation" section.
  Ensure that the material is assigned to a valuation category that allows split valuation (e.g., "X" for split valuation).
  
  
  
  Configure Split Valuation:
  
  If the material should support split valuation, you may need to change its configuration.
  Use transaction code OMWB to configure split valuation settings.
  Ensure that the valuation types and categories are correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Change Valuation Category:
  
  If the material is not intended to have split valuation, you may need to change the valuation category to one that does not require split valuation.
  This can be done in the material master record by changing the valuation category.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific guidelines on configuring split valuation for materials.
