Summary :
When costing, SAP users can determine product valuation using various pricing strategies in the valuation variant Customizing. Current documentation gaps exist for strategies involving purchasing info records, particularly affecting material valuation, subcontracting, and external processing strategies as of Release 4.5A. The system prioritizes 'Normal' or 'Subcontracting' info record categories based on the valuation context, and follows a designated strategy sequence for price determination. Vendor determination precedes pricing, aligning with conditions within the purchasing info record or related documents. Rectifying documentation deficiencies is critical to ensuring clarity and appropriate strategy application. Additional details can be accessed on SAP's official help portal.
