  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/VALUATION004 - Fill in the moving price ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/VALUATION004 Fill in the moving price typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there is an issue with the valuation of stock items, particularly when the system expects a moving price to be filled in but it is missing.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Moving Price: The most common cause of this error is that the moving price for the material is not maintained in the system. This can happen if the material master data is incomplete or if the valuation type is not set up correctly.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the material valuation might not be set up properly, leading to the system not being able to determine the moving price.
    3. Stock Type Issues: The stock type (e.g., unrestricted, quality inspection, blocked) may not have a moving price defined.
    4. Data Transfer Issues: If data is being transferred from another system or module, there may be issues with the data integrity or completeness.

    Solution:

    1. Maintain Moving Price:

      • Go to the material master record (transaction code MM02).
      • Check the accounting view and ensure that the moving price is filled in for the relevant valuation area.

    2. Check Configuration:
