In SAP MM, procurement process involves cost of goods and services that needs to be paid to
vendor by an organization. The cost being paid must be posted in an organization necessarily in a
correct general ledger G/L account. Every time during procurement to remember the correct G/L
account is an impossible thing. So, in SAP system some configuration for account determination is
done so that system will automatically determine the correct G/L account that needs to be posted.
G/L account is posted when goods receipt is done as well as during clearing invoice verification.
Account determination deals with the following terms which are as follows.
Define Valuation Control
Group together Valuation Areas
Define Valuation Classes
Configure Automatic Posting
Define Valuation Control

Valuation areas can be grouped together and can be assigned to one grouping code if they belong
to same G/L account. For example different plants under one company code can be assigned
same valuation grouping code and vice versa. Before this, valuation grouping code must be
activated and this can be done by following the below steps.
Path to Activate Valuation Grouping Code:

material will have different G/L account than the finished material as the cost will be different in
both the cases. Account reference is also maintained along with valuation class. Account
