Answer / prashant rathore

Material Type is Copied from Existing Material Types
Available in Standard System.
This is the Most important thing one should remember.
Material types are Created/Copied by using Transaction Code
OMS2, and there we maintain various parameters for the
same, like Account category reference, price-Standard or
Moving Average etc.
secondly assignment of G/L Accounts all these settings
related to G/L account determination is done by FI
generally but to have knowledge of it go to transaction
code OBYC. there we can have an idea how automatic account
determination is configured in system.

there we have various transaction event keys there we
define various G/L Accounts for various Valuation Classes.
I hope this gives the answer, for any more doubts please
revert.
