English abstract We calculate Warfield p-invariants W ,p(V (RG)) of the group of nor- malized units V (RG) in a commutative group ring RG of prime char(RG) = p in each of the following cases: (1) G0/Gp is finite and R is an arbitrary direct product of indecomposable rings; (2) G0/Gp is bounded and R is a finite direct product of fields; (3) id(R) is finite (in particular, R is finitely generated). Moreover, we give a general strategy for the computation of the above Warfield p-invariants under some restrictions on R and G. We also point out an essential incorrectness in a recent paper due to Mollov and Nachev in Commun. Algebra (2011)
