• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MG413 - Valuation is at plant level ?

  The SAP error message MG413 "Valuation is at plant level" typically occurs when there is an attempt to perform a transaction that is not compatible with the valuation level set in the system. In SAP, materials can be valued at either the company code level or the plant level. When the valuation is set at the plant level, certain operations that require company code-level valuation may trigger this error.
  Cause:
  
  Valuation Level Setting: The valuation level for the material is set to plant level in the material master data. This means that the material's valuation is managed at the plant level rather than at the company code level.
  Transaction Type: The transaction being performed (e.g., goods movement, inventory management) may require a company code-level valuation, which is incompatible with the plant-level valuation setting.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that are not aligned with the intended valuation strategy.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and check the valuation data for the material in question.
  Ensure that the valuation type is set correctly according to your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction:
  
  Verify the transaction you are trying to perform. If it requires company code-level valuation, consider whether you can adjust the transaction or if you need to change the valuation level.
  
  
  
  Change Valuation Level:
  
  If necessary, you can change the valuation level in the configuration settings (transaction code SPRO). However, this should be done with caution and typically requires a thorough understanding of the implications for your business processes.
  Navigate to: SPRO > IMG > Logistics - General > Material Master > Settings for Key Fields > Define Valuation Level.
