  Error Message
  W7002: Material &1 still has valuated stock in plant &2
  
  &1 = Material number
  &2 = Plant
  
  
  Cause
  This warning message occurs when you try to perform an operation on a material that requires the material to have no valuated stock in the specified plant, but the system finds that there is still valuated stock available.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Attempting to delete or flag a material for deletion in a plant where stock still exists.
  Trying to change the material type or certain material master data that requires zero stock.
  Attempting to block or discontinue a material that still has stock.
  Trying to perform a plant deletion or material-plant deletion when stock is still present.
  
  
  Explanation
  
  Valuated stock means stock that has a value in the inventory accounting (i.e., stock that is accounted for in the financial books).
  The system prevents certain changes or deletions to avoid inconsistencies in inventory valuation and accounting.
  The presence of valuated stock means the material is still active in inventory and financial processes.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve this warning, you need to ensure that the material has no valuated stock in the specified plant. Steps include:
  
  
  Check Stock Levels:
  
  Use transaction MMBE (Stock Overview) or MB52 (List Warehouse Stocks on Hand) to check the stock of the material in the plant.
  Verify if there is any stock in unrestricted, quality inspection, blocked stock, or stock in transit.
  
  
  
  Clear Stock:
  
  If stock exists, you need to clear it by:
  
  Transferring stock to another plant or material.
  Consuming the stock through production or sales.
  Scrapping the stock using transaction MB1A (Goods Withdrawal) or MIGO (Goods Movement).
  Returning stock to vendor if applicable.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Stock in Special Stocks:
  
  Sometimes stock is held in special stock categories (e.g., consignment, project stock). Check these stocks as well.
  
  
  
  Check Stock in Quality Inspection:
  
  Stock under quality inspection is also valuated stock. You may need to move or clear this stock.
  
  
  
  After Stock is Zero:
  
  Once the stock is zero, retry the operation (e.g., deletion, flagging for deletion, material type change).
