The valuation price of the material is zero

Message type: E = Error

Message class: M3 - Material Master

Message number: 158

Message text: The valuation price of the material is zero



What causes this issue?

You have changed the <DS:GLOS.price_control>price control</> from
<ZH>V</> (moving average price/periodic unit price) to <ZH>S</>
(standard price); that is, you want the standard price to be used as
the valuation price in future. However, the moving average
price/periodic unit price is zero.


System Response

This depends on how your system is configured:
If your system is configured such that a standard price of zero is
allowed, the system copies the moving average price/periodic unit price
to the standard price.
If your system is configured such that a standard price of zero is not
allowed, the system returns the price control to the moving average
price/periodic unit price.


How to fix this error?

If you want to allow a standard price of zero, contact your system
administrator.


Information for system administrators
You can allow/disallow a standard price of zero in Customizing for the
<LS>Material Master</> by changing the attribute of message M3 132
accordingly.
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUOLMSOMT4>Proceed</>
