• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR089 - Material has no stock managed on value basis in valuation area & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WR089 - Material has no stock managed on value basis in valuation area &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to perform a transaction or process that requires the material to be managed on a value basis in a specific valuation area (usually a plant or storage location), but the material is not set up for value-based stock management in that valuation area.
  In SAP, stock can be managed either:
  
  Quantity-based (standard approach): Stock quantities are tracked.
  Value-based: Stock is managed based on the value of the stock rather than quantity.
  
  If a process (e.g., physical inventory, goods movement, or valuation) expects the material to be managed on a value basis but the material master or configuration does not reflect this, the system throws this error.
  
  When does this error typically occur?
  
  During physical inventory postings or adjustments.
  When performing goods movements or stock transfers that require value-based stock management.
  When valuation or inventory management settings are inconsistent with the material master data.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Go to transaction MM03 (Display Material).
  Navigate to the Accounting 1 view.
  Check the Stock Valuation indicator.
  Verify if the material is set for Value-Based Inventory Management in the relevant valuation area (plant).
  
  
  
  Check Configuration for Value-Based Inventory Management:
  
  Use transaction OMX1 or navigate via SPRO:
  
  Logistics ? Materials Management ? Inventory Management and Physical Inventory ? Value-Based Inventory Management ? Activate Value-Based Inventory Management
  
  
  Ensure that value-based inventory management is activated for the valuation area and material type.
  
  
  
  Adjust Material Master or Configuration:
  
  If the material should be managed on a value basis, update the material master accordingly.
  If the material should not be managed on a value basis, adjust the process or transaction to align with quantity-based management.
  
  
  
  Check Valuation Area Settings:
  
  Verify if the valuation area (plant) is configured for value-based inventory management.
  If not, either activate it or adjust the process to avoid value-based requirements.
  
  
  
  Stock Consistency:
  
  Sometimes, inconsistencies in stock data cause this error.
  Run stock reconciliation or physical inventory to correct stock data.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Value-Based Inventory Management is an older method and is not commonly used in newer SAP implementations. Most systems use quantity-based inventory management.
  This error often arises in legacy systems or when integrating with external systems that expect value-based stock.
  SAP Note references (if available) can provide system-specific corrections or patches.
  Always ensure that material master data and configuration are consistent to avoid such errors.
