Together with Checking rule this checking group of availability check controls avaibility checks process that means availability checks is going to be controlled by checking groups of availability check + checking rule. Checking rule specifies the scope of the availability check that means during availability check system calculates(ATP-available to promise) quantities by following a formular called. ATP(available-to promose) = WH stock + planned receipts planned issues. That means through checking rule only system can undersatand what kind of MRP elements Ex:[PR,PO,Planned Order,Production Order,sales order,deliveries,different type of stock etc] whether system have to include or exclude as a planned receipts & planned issues in ATP quantity calculation. Checking Group of availability check is automatically determine in the material master depending upon the material type & delivery plant.

Ex:- 0001----paleHes 0002---In Liquid Form 0003---Container The value of this field use by the system as one of the factor to determine ROUTE for particular line item in one sales documents.

Plant Data/Storage/And Plant Data/Storage 2:Valuation Class:- Assign valuation EX:-7920---Finished products as one of the prerequisite to post stock account for relavent goods movement as a part of MM & FICO integration. Price Controls:Ex:- S-Standered Price VMoving Average Price. Depending Upon Material type system proposes this price controls. It represents Cost of the material & that is production cost,or procuremen cost. For internally procued materials standered price & for external procured materials moving average price is going to be maintained or used. So as to evaluate the stock this standered price or moving average price is going to be used. When production order or process order os going to be evaluated after releasing stabdered cost estimate run in co module,System automatically updates the standered price. When PGI system uses the standered price to calculate COGS(Cost Of Goods Sold) account. In SAP-SD te standered price or moving average price is going to be used as a cost(Condition VPRS) to calculate profit margin of the line item material. Moving average price is going to be used to calculate procurement cost if one material is being procured from number of vendors.. Maintain standered price---Ex:-1000 Save it & Note down material No
