Variance between GL inventory account balance and OPM inventory value

Hi everyone,
I am using OPM actual costing method (PPAC), I have set profile option GMF: Book Allocations using current period basis to YES.
Assume that we have a product x with openning balance Quantity = 20 TONs and Vale = 100$ (Unit cost = 5$).
Assume that the production quantity in that period was 50 Tons and GL expense was 200 $ (material cost = 0), OPM will generate the following journal as GL Allocation subevent:
Cr. ALC 200
Dr. INV 200
Assume that the usage quantity in that period was 30 TONs at 7$ as average unit cost.
Cr. INV 210
Dr. WIP 210
Which means the closing balance in GL will be 100$ + 200$ - 210$ = 90$.
But in OPM the inventroy value will be 40 TONs(Closing invntory QTY) * 7$(Average unit cost) = 280$.
I have faced this problem in all products, Can anybody explain to me how can I resolve this varainces.
Thanks

I haven't worked on PPAC but I assume its only a cost method to build the cost. Once costs are build GL entry happens in the same way.
You said that you first freeze the cost and then run subledger update report.
Once you freeze the cost, what cost do you see for product x?
Once you produce 20 TONS output; subledger update should generate entry as follows:
Cr WIP: cost*20
Dr INV: cost*20
Now you mentioned about title ALC (GL Allocation). I haven't seen that title.
Also at the period end we need to run revaluation of inventory for STND method, I am not sure if the same is required for PPAC. Try performing that in test instance to see accounting entries generated.
I am sorry if I confused you or didn't understand your question. I have used mostly worked with STND method and just trying to extend my experience with PPAC.

  • Difference between G/L Account Balance and PCA Balance

    Friends,
    After executing KE5T for the period 6 we are seeing a difference in the G/L a/c balance figures and the profit center figures for 2 balance sheet accounts. In one case the PCA balance figures are greater than the G/L a/c balance figures and vice versa in the 2nd case.
    What is the procedure to be followed in such cases? Is there any standard program that can identify the postings that are causing the differences?
    Please confirm at your earliest.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sameer S. Gupte

    Eli,
    Thanks for the reply.
    However, the note 126910 specifically mentions that it is not to be used for balance sheet account balances transferred to PCA using 1KEK.
    Can you please advise about reconciling differences between PCA and balance sheet accounts.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Account Balance Sheet x Inventory Cube BW

    Hi Gurus,
    Need a cube o extractor with  account Balance Sheet x inventory(materials).
    I have 0FIGL_C10 0figl_c10 has all the accounts but not for material balance and 0ic_c03 have all the materials but not the balance sheet accounts, expense accounts only
    Need your help
    Regards

    HI,
    balance sheet is always combination of GL accounts. but you need the functional help for which GL accounts you can use in balcance sheet line items. ex: input material cost, utility cost these all are combination of GL accounts so functional guy will give you the list of GL accounts.
    easy way is creating the heirarchy, since you have the heirarchy copy it and do the changes as per your requirement finaly in your report you just have the heirarchy and key figures are credit and debit etc
    roconsilation alway with the combination of GL accounts. (take some GLA ccounts month wise or fiscal period wise and check in R3 and your BI data target)

  • Reconciliation between Account balance and Deliveries in BP MasterData

    Hi.
    Version 2007A
    We create a A\R Invoice for Customer. Customer pays it. Then he want to return items after and want some money back. How we can do this? (Not by A\R Credit Memo). When I do it by Return it affects Deliveries and return of money affects Account balance. How can I reconciliate this accounts?
    In previous version (2004C) I partIy solved this problem by adding Return based on A|\R Invoice. Now I can't see Invoices in Returns maybe this is caused by some settings in the system.
    With regards,
    Maxim Groonis

    Hi Maxim,
    if the customer only returns some of the items previously sold, could you not use correction invoice?
    Are the items actually returned or do you just need to create an accounting transaction?
    To receive goods back into stock you can use either a goods return or a goods receipt, it depends on how you want the stock booked back into the warehouse, the item cost it had gone out with or a new item cost. Also, do you need to re-deliver the stock to the customer? If not, deliveries may be closed/cancelled manually as desired.
    What I do not understand is the VAT aspect, if you issue a sales invoice with VAT, then that amount has to be given to the tax authority. If you issue a credit memo, the VAT amount on that can be claimed back. Does your localisation work differently?
    If you just need to credit the customer, you can do that using manual journal entries, you need to be careful however with the tax reporting. It would be best to check with the company accountant  what postings s/he wishes to achieve.
    All the best,
    kerstin

  • House bank account balances and turnovers

    Hello,
    at our customer company we have configured few G/L accounts for multiple bank accounts - e.g. one for each house bank ID per local/foreign currency - so for each bank we have two G/L accounts configured. This works very well until we need to see the turnovers and opening and closing balances per each house bank account. Are there any alternative possibilities to see that in SAP apart from customizing a report from FEBKO and FEBEP tables?
    Thanks in advance,
    Joaniuka

    Hi,
    When you enter the transaction and select a statement or group of statements you can click on u201Cother displayu201D. Then you can see an ALV with all the entries in the statements you have selected. Opening Balance, closing balance and posting date are available in the ALV among many other fields.

  • HT2589 We had an account that was housed on our old computer but it didn't make it onto the new one...how can I get the account balance and start using it?

    We had an account that was housed on our old computer but it didn't make it to the  new one.  How can we find the balance and start using it again?

    iTunes accounts are not located on your computer.  They are simply tied to a specific AppleID.  Just log in to iTunes with the correct AppleID and Password and you will be back in that account.

    My main problem is getting periodic data. When we run MCBZ Current Requirements/Stocks: Basic List, we get the data for a particular time period, But the report that needs to be developed needs this in a matrix for all the time periods between two days.
    MVER has a yearly indicator, but there is there a way for me to know periodic values smaller than that - like monthly.
    MARD is much better. There is the year and the month in consideration in the fields Year current period, and current period.
    MARC, with this table, I have the same problem as MVER. I dont even have the year in the table.
    EKBE, I have no idea now a purchase order is related to determining Stock and OnHand inventory, although I know that goods delivered as a result of purchase order are the stock/inventory. There is the Year, Posting Date, Document Date entries here. I dont know how these will tie into the periodic stock determination.
    MSEG, There is the fiscal year here. MKPF has the document date, posting date, and entry date. I can use this as  a starting point by putting the material posting date in "buckets" each representing one periodic summary.
    Any more hints on how I can tie it all together.
    Thanks

  • Fiscal Year Variance Change affected AA Balance and Recalculation of Values

    Hi Experts,
    I have a scenario where we change the Fiscal Year Variance on certain Company Codes. The Fiscal Year Changes were on Period 12 from Nov 26th to Dec 31st (last Fiscal Year Var was until Dec 25th), and Period 1 of next Year will already start at 1st of Jan (Last Fiscal Year Variance was from Dec 26th) until 26th of Jan.
    We encountered a discrepancy on some reports especially on the FI-AA Balance Report, where as some posted entries for the Assets were not included.
    Then I investigated. I found out that the Recalcualtion of Values is always based on the entries of table ANEP where the fiscal period 2011 did not include some postings done on th 30th of Dec because of fiscal year variance change.
    In the Asset Values of the asset, it shows no discrepancy there although the info-dialogue box is appearing to recalculate the values of the asset. They already posted in Period 11 of this year after the changed fiscal year variance without recalculating and currently the planned values are different. The users are okay with the posted depreciation run since the asset balance per year is still correct. But if we recalculate the posted entries for asset acquisition on Dec 30th, the acq amount/asset balance will already be incorrect.
    My Current solution is to enhance the function module FIRST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET to show that if the values of Fiscal Year = 2011 and Period = 1, then it will get the date 26th of December 2010. I know that this Function Module is widely used for all modules but since we already changed Fiscal Variances maybe this will also correct some reports or functions that includes Fiscal Starting Dates.
    Or are there any solution for this scenario? Is this solution advisable?
    Edited by: Cecilio Cruz II on Dec 6, 2011 8:32 AM

    Have you done the impact analysis of changing the fiscal year variant directly? I would suggest you may need to raise an OSS note with SAP. The change must have affected different areas.
