Valuation Error for Customer Items in Work Order Submission

The valuation error that was coming for customer provided items while submitted work order in stock entry

Understood, but the item is provided by the customer. We receive it, perform some processes, and then return it to them. For this process, applying a rate is fine. However, it is asking for a valuation rate for the inward customer item. Since we are receiving this item from the customer, we don’t want to apply any rate. So, why is it asking for a valuation rate?

Valuation Rate in the Item Master shows how much each item is worth. This helps in keeping track of the total value of your stock. If you don’t enter a valuation rate, the system might show errors when you try to make a stock entry. It needs this value to properly calculate and manage your stock.

Thank you for the information. I need to clarify a small detail regarding the valuation error we discussed earlier. The issue occurs only for some entries, while other entries are processing correctly. We are not maintaining a valuation rate or checking ‘allow zero valuation rate.’ Could you please clarify this?

What if an item does not have fixed valuation rate as it changes every after purchase in case of resellable products.is it proper to set valuation rate from item master? Isn’t it better to use FIFO so that it auto-calculates valuation rate
