A/cing entry for price diff in Material master & PO when GR & IR

Hi Experts,
Need to know the accounting entries while goods receipt as well as invoice receipt when there is a difference in the price of Material master and the PO.
with regards
Ramesh Y

HI,
When goods is received then stock account gets debited, and GR/IR account gets credited, If there is a price difference then depending on price control maintained in material master i.e. if it is standard, then difference will go to Price difference account and if it is moving average price then it will be distributed to available provided there is sufficient stock.
When invoice is posted, then vendor gets credited and GR/IR account gets debited.
Hope it clarifies
Regards

Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master - usage

Hi
Can anyone tell me what's usage of "Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master" (spro-mm-purchasing-mat master-entry aids..)
and what it controls???

Hi,
In this step, you can assign a purchasing value key and a valuation class to a material group.
The assignment of a purchasing value key provides you with default values for reminder levels etc. in purchase order items without a material master record and without an info record.
The assignment of a valuation class to a material group enables the system to determine different accounts for the individual material groups.
This is usally useful for creation of PO and account posting for materials without an MMR.
When you create a PO you mention only the material group, based on which the purchase info like the Deadline monitorying, over/under delivery tolerances, Vendor evaluation etc gets incorporated into the PO. The account posting will get captured against the Valuation class maintained to the Material Group for which the GL account mapping will be done against the V.Class in the OBYC.

Price updation in Material Master after confirmation

Dear Gurus,
When we create a production order for Semi finished which is maintained with Moving Average Price(MAP) in material master and we do confirmation of the order with "CO15'.
My client wants after goods receipts against 101 movement type the price should be up date in Material; Master immediately.
Regards
RAM

Hi,
I think this cant be done.
> My client wants after goods receipts against 101 movement type the price should be up date in Material; Master immediately.
How much MAP should be after GR? From where this value will come?
The accounting entries are passed on the basis of price maintained in the material master. The MAP is the input to the business activity. So as per my understanding the MAP cant be updated with GR against a production order.
Also, the costing run would update the standard price, and wont be helpful as the indicator would be 'V' in material master.
Hope it clears.

Reg. price maintenance in material master and Costing

Dear Experts
I have maintained price for material in material master and costing,but when I create PO price didn't come from anywhere. Pls help me.
Thanks
Rajakumar.k

Dear Rajakumar,
The values that are maintained in the material master in costing view is considered only for costing
purpose.
Say while doing the cost estimate for a material using CK40N,a costing variant will be used and say For
Eg,PPC1,for this a valuation variant will be linked ,as per this valuation variant for costing purpose the
first priority would have been given to the planned price in the material master in costing 2 view.
So this value will be considered only for costing purpose.
For procurement related things you have to maintain a purchase info record for a material + vendor
combination in ME11 and a source list in ME01.
In the purchase info record you can maintain a price for buying the material from that vendor.
I hope this will clear your doubts.
Check and revert back.

No delivery expediter for PO item without material master

Hello gurus,
when I create a PO with an item without material master (just user-defined text), my system does not create a delivery expediter in ME91F, although the delivery is overdue. When I use a material master in the item, the expediter is created just fine.
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong here?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi,
Check in ME22N, under "Delivery" Tab whether following is maintained
Reminder 1
Reminder 2
Reminder 3
If not then maintain ad if you want it to come automatically in PO then check in SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Material Master > Entry Aids for Items Without a Material Master > Here assign the Purchasing Value Key to the material group
It will start picking it for this material group for Text PO also.

Price zero in material master:MM01

When I create a material , system is asking moving avg price, std price (Accounting 1 view). It is mandatory. In some cases I want to maintain price as zero which system is not allowing. How to make system to accept proce as zero for a material.

Dear,
With a standard price S in Material master you can enter price as Zero but as soon as you enter Zero goes & SAP treat is as a blank field & issues a message "Enter a price" .However even if you don't enter price, you can save the material.
Or You can manually maintain the price for Material in t-code MR21 as zero.

Purchasing info records for PO-items without material master

Hi gurus,
I would like to have the system automatically determine certain settings (e.g. reminder/urging data).
For PO-items with material master there is no problem, because all information can be stored in the purchasing info record, and are automatically found when I enter the material number.
For items without material number/master I tried to generate a info record for the material group. When I enter the no. of the info record, everything works fine. But the info record is not automatically found, if I only enter the material group no.
Is there any way to make the system find the info record by itself?
Thanks
Alicia

Thanks to both of you!
Priyanka:
How can you create a source list for a material group? I thought this was possible for materials only!?
Of course, you cannot have more than one info record at a time for a material group. But one would be enough for me...
Dhruba:
Thanks for the advice, but I know how to manually select a info record. The point is, I'd like to have the system determine it according to the material group I enter.
Any other ideas?
Alicia

For Price Diff

Hello
We have created a PO and with the std conditions, and maintained the V as price control
if the condition and the MAP of the material is very less, like 2 or 5 rs, its not considering the condition value and posting at MAP 101 GR form vendor
and taking the remaining amount in the price diff in MIRO.
what could be the possible reasons for the same.
Regards
Niti narayan

Hi
Thanks for the replay
The entry that is going to the stock account is going after converting the MAP (present stock + fresh stock)
and the another entry that is going to GR/IR is going fine as per Condition value (to the vendor)
And I think that is normal
Thanks

Moving average price as price control in material master: Erroneous entries

Dear All,
Recently we did a price control change from standard price to moving average price for one of our clients and scenario testing was done. We came across the following issue at the IR point and this error occur time to time ( not for all POs )Following steps were followed
Scenario
1. Create a PO for 1000 Kg of material A @ 1USD
2.GR the purchase order- at this point correct values are passed to stock account
3.consumed 250 Kg from the above material and from the same batch- correct values are passed to the accounts correctly
4.invoice verification is done for the above PO with a price variance of 100 USD. The error occur at this time ( some times )
Correct entry:
Dr GR/IR account 1000
Dr Stock account 75 (Price variance is charged proportionately charge to the balance stock)
Dr price variance 25 (Price variance is charged proportionately on the consumed stock)
Cr Vendor 1100
But sometimes the value does not pass accurately for the same PO. Accounting entries are as follows.
( this is same scenario with new purchase order with different master records )
Dr GR/IR account 1000
Dr Stock account 100 (Total price variance is charged to the stock account and its incorrect this should be only 75 as explain above )
Cr Vendor 1100
This error occurs sometimes even though the vendor master record and purchase orders are sand same as the time of pass correct entries . All these time GR based invoice verification tick has activated in PO as well as vendor master .
Appreciate your advice.
Tks

Thank you for the information. But this is not the system behavior , system proportionately add the price variance to the stock qty which is remaining in the stock also it proportionately charge the price variance to the price variance account which is consumed before the invoice verification.But time to time it passes the incorrect entries.
eg , Create a PO for 100KG @ 1USD
       GR                     100KG
       Consumed           25
      IR , here we IR at higher value than the PO price
     PO value is USD 100
    IR    value    USD 100 + 12 = 112
Correct IR entry : Vendor              CR    112
                             GR/IR                 Dr    100
                             Stock                 DR      8 ( 75% of the stk is reaming in stk so relevant variance is USD 8 )
                             Price variance   DR      4 ( 25% of the consumed , so relevant variance is USD 4 )
And this is accurate with accounting principles and standards .
Actually system correctly calculate the above entries . but some times it pass the incorrect entry , this is my issue.
In the erroneous entry it does not segregate the price variance , If we consider the same scenario as above at the time of erroneous entry the system pass entries as below:
                            Vendor              CR    112
                             GR/IR                 Dr    100
                             Stock                 DR     12 ( add 100% which is incorrect )
This is incorrect .

Prasad

Hello,
In your case follwing condition value goes in to price difference account
1) When there is no sufficient stock coverage.
If there is stock coverage value is loading on material but if there is no material where we can load the value?????.......This value is loaded on price difference account.
Pls check the stock on posting date from MB5B and check what was stock for two clients.

Moving avergae price updation in material master for project stock

Dear All,
My query is pertaining to updation of MAP( moving average price) for project specific procurement ( as project stock) for valuated project stock.
As definelty the cost of procurement gets consumed by project .but i want to know does the project stock procurement still updates the moving avergae price or not.
Ex:-Suppose MAP in material master is 10 USD ( with qty 1)and i procure the same material ( qty 1)for project with account assignment Q for 9 USD . now will the MAP in material master becomes 9.5 USD or it remains 10 usd.?
Please reply urgently
Regards
Amit

Hi Amit,
If your Project Stock is valuated, then, the valuation data for it is stored in a different table: QBEW.
The normal, anonymus warehouse stock (the unrestricted use stock which is not assigned to any project or to any sales order) has its valuation data stored in MBEW.
The "Accounting 1" view in the Material Master MM03 ONLY displays the data of MBEW.
In the material master you will never see the valuation data of the valuated project stock (table QBEW) or the valuated sales order stock (valuation indicator "M" - table EBEW).
The valuation data for the tables QBEW and EBEW can be seen in SE16 or in the transaction MBBS.
Also note that these valuated special stocks are managed independently of the normal stock. If, for example, you change the Moving Average Price of your normal stock in MBEW, this will not have any influence on your project stock, as the data is under a totally diferent table QBEW.
I hope this helps you,
Esther.

*How to change the Valuation Category & Price control in material master*

Hello SAP Gurus,
I have a requirement to change the valuation category from 'X' to ' ' in accounting view of material master.
-> I have cancelled all the open PO's & SO's for the material
-> I have ensured that there is no stock for the material in that valuation area.
But still I get an error message that batch already exists for the material. When I check entries in MCHB I find that there are previous entires in MCHB with zero stock.
I have gone through the SAP note 155874 which recomends the archiving the effected objects.
Please let me know is there any work around to change the valuation category from 'X' to ' ' & price control 'V' to 'S'. I also need to change from ' ' to 'X' for a few materials.
Thanks for your advise.
Best Regards,
Narayan.

Note 155874 cleary describes what has to be done to be able to change.
There is no workaround, and if you change anything in the tables directly, then this will cause inconsitencies, as described in this note as well.

Price control in material master.

Dear all,
How can i change the Price control key(V to S) in material master.
and what are the implication after change the price control.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Vishal Garg

Hello
In the SAP System, there are two types of price control:
Standard price & Moving average price.
These two types of price control differ in how they handle price variances resulting from goods receipts or invoice receipts.
Changing the Type of Price Control
Under certain conditions, you can change the type of price control:
From standard price to moving average price
You can make this change at any time. The moving average price (which until now has been updated for informational purposes only) replaces the standard price and is used for valuation from now on.
From moving average price to standard price
You cannot make this change in the following two cases:
If the material master record is set up as a valuation header record for a material subject to split valuation
If the standard price comes from costing and is not equal to the moving average price
If the change is possible, the moving average price becomes the standard price, which is then used for valuation.
You change the type of price control by overwriting the price control indicator in the material master record with the new indicator.
Changing the type of price control for a material does not change the value of the material stock, since in both cases the current price becomes the new price.
An example is given below:
Standard price to Moving average price
Material A
Price control: S
Moving average Price: 8
Standard Price: 10
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 1000
Now we change the material price control to 'V'. Then
Material A
Price control: M
Moving average price:10
Standard price: 10
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 1000
Moving average to standard price
Material B
Price control: V
Moving average Price: 8
Standard Price: 0
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 800
Now we change the material price control to 'S'. Then
Material B
Price control: S
Moving average price:8
Standard price: 8
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 800
Hope this will clear your doubts.

Price change in material master

Hi,
When does the moving average price change, if the PO price or the invoice price is different from the one in material master. Is it after the creation of PO, GR or invoice?
Thanks and regards
Aparna

Hi,
Moving Average price = Total Value
Total Stock
Moving average price updates once you make GR and IV
If you are making GR & IV for new po , then new moving average price of that material will be :
Total stock = stock already present in plant + GR made stock of that new po
Total Value = Total Value of the material in plant + Invoice amount for that new po
Thanks & Regards
