  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WR130 - Material &1 can only be revaluated in collective processing ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WR130 - Material &1 can only be revaluated in collective processing


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you attempt to revalue a material individually (i.e., one by one) in the SAP system, but the material is configured or restricted to be revaluated only through collective (mass) processing.

    In SAP, certain materials—especially those managed under specific valuation methods or inventory management settings—require revaluation to be done in batch mode to ensure consistency and integrity of valuation data. The system prevents individual revaluation to avoid partial or inconsistent updates.


    Explanation:

    • The message indicates that the material you are trying to revalue cannot be processed individually.
    • This is often the case for materials that are subject to collective revaluation processes, such as those using periodic revaluation or group revaluation methods.
    • The system enforces this to maintain data consistency and to comply with valuation rules.

    Solution:

    1. Use Collective Processing:

      • Instead of revaluating the material individually, use the collective revaluation transaction.
      • For example, use transaction MR21 (Price Change) in collective mode or the appropriate mass revaluation program.
      • In some cases, you may need to use transaction MR22 (Material Price Change) or run a batch job/program designed for mass revaluation.
    2. Check Material Settings:

      • Verify the material master data, especially valuation and price control settings.
      • Check if the material is flagged for collective revaluation or if it uses a valuation method that requires mass processing.
    3. Consult Configuration:

      • Review the configuration in MM-IV (Inventory Management and Physical Inventory) and MM-IM (Inventory Management) to understand valuation control.
      • Check if the valuation class or price control settings enforce collective revaluation.
    4. Coordinate with Finance/Controlling:

      • Since revaluation impacts financial valuation, coordinate with the controlling or finance team to ensure the correct revaluation process is followed.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • MR21 - Individual Price Change (may be restricted for some materials)
      • MR22 - Collective Price Change
      • MRBR - Release Blocked Invoices (sometimes related to price changes)
      • MRRL - Revaluation of Inventory
    • SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Check SAP Notes related to material revaluation and valuation methods.
      • Review SAP Help Portal documentation on material price changes and inventory valuation.
    • Valuation Methods:

      • Standard Price (S)
      • Moving Average Price (V)
      • Periodic Revaluation methods may require collective processing.

    Summary:

    • Cause: Material is restricted to revaluation only via collective processing.
    • Solution: Perform revaluation using collective processing transactions or batch jobs.
    • Check: Material master valuation settings and coordinate with finance.

    If you need specific steps for your SAP version or additional help with the transaction, please provide more details about the material type, valuation method, and SAP module/version.
