  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR076 - No valuation area exists for plant & ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WR076 - No valuation area exists for plant &:


    Error Message

    WR076: No valuation area exists for plant &


    Cause

    This error occurs when the system tries to perform a valuation-related transaction (such as goods movement, invoice verification, or material valuation) for a plant, but no valuation area has been defined or assigned for that plant in the system.

    In SAP, valuation areas determine the level at which material valuation is carried out. The valuation area can be either:

    • Plant level (most common)
    • Company code level

    If the system expects a valuation area for the plant but none is maintained, it throws this error.


    When does it occur?

    • During goods receipt or invoice verification for a material in a plant.
    • When posting material documents or accounting documents related to inventory.
    • When running material valuation or price determination processes.

    Solution

    1. Check Valuation Area Configuration:

      • Go to transaction OMX1 (or SPRO path:
        SPRO -> Materials Management -> Valuation and Account Assignment -> Account Determination -> Define Valuation Areas).

      • Verify if the plant in question is assigned a valuation area.

      • If not assigned, create or assign a valuation area for the plant.

    2. Assign Valuation Area to Plant:

      • In the configuration, assign the valuation area to the plant.

      • Usually, the valuation area is the same as the plant code, but it can differ if valuation is done at company code level.

    3. Check Material Master Data:

      • Ensure that the material master record is maintained correctly for the plant.

      • Use transaction MM02 to check the accounting view and valuation data.

    4. Check Company Code and Plant Assignment:

      • Verify that the plant is assigned to the correct company code.

      • Use transaction OX18 to check plant-company code assignment.

    5. If Valuation at Company Code Level:

      • Make sure the valuation area is set to company code level in configuration.

      • Assign the company code as valuation area.


    Additional Information

    • Valuation Area is a key organizational unit in SAP MM that controls how material valuation is carried out.
    • The valuation area determines the level at which inventory values are maintained.
    • If valuation is done at plant level, each plant has its own valuation area.
    • If valuation is done at company code level, all plants under the company code share the same valuation area.
