• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR095 - Partial revaluation at retail not possible for generic material ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WR095 - Partial revaluation at retail not possible for generic material
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to perform a partial revaluation at retail price for a generic material in SAP Retail. Generic materials are typically used as placeholders or groupings and do not have individual stock or price management at the retail level. Since partial revaluation implies adjusting the retail price for a portion of the stock, it is not applicable to generic materials, which do not have stock or price data maintained individually.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Generic materials in SAP Retail are used for grouping or reporting purposes and do not have their own stock or retail price.
  Partial revaluation at retail means adjusting the retail price for a subset of stock or a specific batch.
  Since generic materials do not have stock or retail price data, SAP does not allow partial revaluation on them.
  Attempting to do so triggers the WR095 error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Type:
  
  Verify if the material is marked as a generic material.
  Use transaction MM03 to check material master data.
  Generic materials usually have a specific material type or indicator.
  
  
  
  Avoid Partial Revaluation for Generic Materials:
  
  Do not perform partial revaluation at retail for generic materials.
  Instead, perform revaluation on the individual non-generic materials that make up the generic group.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Material for Revaluation:
  
  Identify the actual materials (non-generic) that require revaluation.
  Perform the partial revaluation on these materials.
  
  
  
  If Generic Material is Incorrectly Set:
  
  If the material should not be generic, correct the material master data accordingly.
  Change the material type or remove the generic indicator if applicable (note: changing material type can be complex and may require data migration or re-creation).
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Retail Pricing and Inventory Procedures:
  
  Follow SAP Retail guidelines for price revaluation.
  Use standard SAP transactions for revaluation such as MR21 (Price Change) or retail-specific revaluation transactions.

  SAP Note / Documentation:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to retail pricing and material master data for any updates or patches.
  
  
  Transactions:
  
  MM03 - Display Material Master
  MR21 - Price Change
  Retail-specific revaluation transactions (e.g., in IS-Retail module)
  
  
  
  Material Master Fields:
  
  Material Type (field MAST-MTART)
  Generic Material Indicator (custom fields or industry-specific indicators)
  
  
  
  SAP Retail Concepts:
  
  Generic materials are used for grouping and reporting, not for stock or price management.
  Retail price revaluation is done on actual stock-keeping units (SKUs).
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  WR095 error is triggered because partial retail price revaluation is not allowed on generic materials. The solution is to perform revaluation on actual materials with stock and retail price data, not on generic groupings.
  
  If you need further assistance, please provide details about the transaction you are using and the material master data involved.
