    SAP Error Message WR187

    Message Text:
    Revaluation at retail is only possible for &1 or &2


    Cause

    This error occurs during the revaluation at retail process in SAP Retail (IS-Retail) when the system detects that the revaluation is being attempted for a valuation type or condition that is not allowed for revaluation at retail.

    In SAP Retail, revaluation at retail is typically restricted to certain valuation types or price types, such as:

    • Standard price (e.g., 'S')
    • Moving average price (e.g., 'V')

    If you try to perform revaluation at retail for a valuation type other than these allowed types, the system throws this error.

    The placeholders &1 and &2 in the message are dynamically replaced by the allowed valuation types or price types during runtime.


    When does this happen?

    • During revaluation at retail (transaction or program) when updating prices or costs.
    • When the valuation type of the material or condition record is not one of the allowed types for revaluation at retail.
    • Possibly during periodic price updates, cost updates, or inventory revaluation processes in IS-Retail.

    Solution

    1. Check the valuation type or price type you are trying to revalue.

      • Identify the valuation type of the material or condition involved in the revaluation.
      • Compare it with the allowed valuation types shown in the error message.
    2. Use allowed valuation types for revaluation at retail.

      • Only perform revaluation for the valuation types indicated in the message (e.g., 'S' or 'V').
      • If you need to revalue other valuation types, consider alternative processes or consult your business process owner.
    3. Adjust your revaluation process or parameters.

      • Review the configuration in Retail Pricing or Material Valuation to ensure that the revaluation is targeted at the correct valuation types.
      • Check the customizing settings in IMG under:
        • Logistics ? Retail ? Merchandise Management ? Pricing ? Revaluation at Retail
        • Or Material Management ? Valuation and Account Assignment
    4. Consult SAP Notes or documentation if the issue persists or if you need to extend allowed valuation types.
