Activation Material Ledger with material working in price control "V"

Hi experts!
I have activated Material Ledger and I have a question about this..
1) Before the activation, I have for example a material with the next values in the "Accounting 1" tab:
Total stock = 7 UNI
Price Control = V
Moving price = 166 USD
Standard price = 166 USD
Total value = 1.162 USD (7 UNI*166 USD)
2) And after the Material Ledger activation, In the same material appears the next values in the "Accounting 1" tab.
Total stock = 7 UNI
Price Control = V
Standar price = 166 USD
Per.Unit price = 23,71 USD
Inventory value = 166 USD
I don´t understand if my total value before activation was 1.162 USD, when I have activated ML, the new value is 166 USD.
I dont´t understand why the value for the "Per.Unit price" is 23,71USD and not is 166 USD because this is the original value before ML activation..
I think that my inventory value must be the same before Material Ledger activation, (1.162 USD)???
Best Regards
Manuel

Hi Shaubhikg:
At first, thanks for your response.
I have founded another material wich has the next information before the material ledger activation:
In the Accounting 1 tab:
Price control: V
Moving price: 1.265,80 USD
Total stock: 5 UNI
Standard price: 553,00 USD
Total value: 6.329,00 USD
After the material Ledger production start up, the same material has the next information in USD:
Standard price: 553,00 USD
Per.unit price: 1.265,80 USD
Price control: V
Inventory value: 6.329,00 USD
In this case the total value of the stock is the same after and before to do the activation of ML. I think that this is good..
And can,t understand the example wich I saw you before.. In that case the Total value of the stock after activation Material Ledger is not the same that before activation..
The material doesn´t have any modification in his unit of measure..
Could you tell me someting about this issue??
Best regards!!
Manuel

Material Ledger with Split Valuation Type 'X' with FIFO

Hi,
The requirement from the customer is to have Raw Material, Intermediary and Finished Products valued at Actuals and on a FIFO basis. According to me, this is possible only if we activate Material Ledger, have batch split valuation u2018Xu2019 as the valuation type and have a batch search strategy which does a FIFO. Are there any technical issues with this solution? Or is there a better solution? Is any organisation ever using this solution for a similar requirement? As an extension of this requirement, how does commodity trading companies running in SAP handle their inventory and COGS valuation?
Thanks and Regards
Shivram.

Hi,
Using Material Ledger with batch management and split valuation of each batch ("X") leads to most aaccurate FIFO valuation result, however, depending on how many material and batch the customer has, huge number of materials will be processed and it will affect the performance issues. You should check the number and expected period-end time frame scheduling at least.
Financial responsible tell you to need this kind of solution (detailed FIFO calculation)?
They usualy needs to get simple FIFO valuation, meaning they don't care each individual logistic material movement as FIFO, but only care of periodic FIFO. I know, it depends on Finacial responsibes or their auditors, so it's also not general.
Please double-check the new FIFO valuation function for Material Ledger with using Periodic Closing and AVR. Some information is in SAP Note 1431829 and 1247053. Related transactions are there, CKLMBB_xxxx under Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Balance Sheet Valuation Procedures. I couldn't find any official documents for Material Ledger + FIFO valuation (like Release Notes).
Hope this will be an additional option to yours.
Best regards, Takashi

Mandatory in material master with material type wise

Dear all
Is it possible to make a field mandatory in material master with material type wise?
kindly help

Hi
See the below config
Check in OMS2 for your material type for "field reference". then
Spro>logistics general>Material master-->field selection.
Here you need to group required fields under one field selection group. then in Maintain field slection for data screen, you can make Field group madatory for the field reference (material type)
If required take help from MM consultant

Pending Routing or BOM material list with material in MARA table

I want to tally the material codes in MARA table with the materials without routing and BOM . i.e. pending Routing or BOM material list with material in MARA table.
Before MRP run How we will get this list ?
Pl' give reply.
Thanks .
Regards.

Hi Kishore,
SAP does not have any standard reports to suite your requirement. What i would suggest is to take couple of data extract from table to validate.
1. First dowload all materials which should have "BOM" and "Routing". This you can do by extracting "MARC" table data where field "BESKZ = 'E' or 'X' ".
2. Now you can extract the data from "MAST" for BOM and "MAPL" for Routing details.
Now do VLOOK up in excel to find the mismatch data.
This can also be done by a customised program, which i dont think it is required since it is going to be used only once.
You could also try SQVI with table joins
Hope this helps...Reward your points if so,

Material ledger:Dynamic Release of Planned Prices

Dear all,
Would anyone tell me how to test the 'Dynamic Release of Planned Prices ' in material ledger step by step? SAP said that system can change the price during the first goods movment in next period, but I did not know how to test it.
rgds,
Ben

If the 'dynamic price release' is active for the corresponding plant
in Material Ledger (you may check that in transaction CKM9), the system
releases planed future price at first goods movement at beginning of the
period (materials movements transactions).
The standard price can be released by different ways. It can be changed
with transactions CK24, CK40N, CKME and with a dynamic price release
with the first posting in the new period.
There are the following prerequisites for the successful release of
standard prices:
1. The current MM period has to correspond to the current FI period. If
    the MM period is already moved before attaining the FI period, no
    prices can be released for the new period until the first date of
    the new FI period is reached. However, Modification note 551956
    permits a dynamic price release in such cases.
*According to the fiscal year variant from the system or user date
2. The period for which the cost estimate was created and flagged has
    to correspond to the current MM period or the valid-from date of
    future prices from the accounting must have been reached.
3. In the release period, a release of a running cost estimate cannot
    yet occur.
4. Provided that a future price is supposed to be released from the
    accounting, but a flagged, released or passed cost estimate is
    anchored on the cost estimate view of the material master, you
    either have to undo these anchors (REDO or delete in Transaction
    CKR1) or you have to override message CKPRCH025 or M8155. When you
    override the message the program might issue incorrect values in the
    variance calculation and in the CO-PA since the standard price may
    no longer correspond to the current planned price.
5. Provided that the Material Ledger (ML) is active, the period status
    has to permit the release. In this case, note that a release cannot
    occur after the end of the prior period (Exception: Late release by
    means of MR21).
6.   Provided that you want to use the dynamic release, note     that it
    is only possible in connection with goods movements, but NOT with
    invoice receipts (Error message M8394) or by means of direct posting
    to the material or by means of the CLOSING ENTRY of the Material
    Ledger (no message).

Material Ledger - Extraction of stock data (price & quantity)

Hi experts,
I'm trying to extract stock quantities & prices from CO-Material Ledger. The R/3 team passed me the following fields as required in BI to be able to calculate the exact figures:
CKMLCR-SALK3 - Value of total valuated stock
CKMLCR-STPRS - Standard price
MLCD-LBKUM - Total valuated stock
I don´t see that standard extractor 0CO_PC_ACT_1 includes any of these fields. Should they all be obtained thru "z" extraction?
Thanks & regards from Madrid,
Alvaro

Material ledger in material master

hello friends
how to remove the check from check box of material ledger in accounting view of material master it is shown in gray field. also price determination field is mandatory how to optional it.

Hi,
In the configuration the material ledger might be active in the valuation area.If it is active in the valuation area then the check box in the material master is automatically checked.
If the material ledger is active for a particular valuation area, all materials in the valuation area are valuated using the material ledger.
If you activate the material ledger for a plant, you should also activate it for all the other plants in the company code. This ensures that the accounts in Financial Accounting and Materials Management are reconciled.
You can deactivate this in SPRO-Controlling -General controlling--Multiple valuation approaches-Basic settings-Check material ledger settings.
But be careful about the controlling settings while changing this.

Find material document with Material, Material document number

Hi,
    i need to find the Material document (MSEG).
I have the following details available
a) Material number MATNR
b) Plant
c) Material document number. MBLNR
To uniquely find the material document the following is required:
MBLNR     Number of Material Document
MJAHR     Material Document Year
ZEILE     Item in Material Document
Thanks
AKG

Hi Amit
MSEG and MKPF are the tables where all material document numbers are stored and you can see the details using Tcode SE16.
Since u have the material number and plant ..... hopefully movement type also ...... then u can see the material document number(field name MBLNR) in MB51.

Integration of material ledger with FM

Hi everybody.
We have activated FM and ML. When executed CKMLCP ,we got message FI640 Funds center _/_ does not exist, we correct it creating a funds center hierarchy, however, I was reviewing the FI documents and I found that ML documents only use the first fund center of the hierarchy, I thought that automatically it will use the same fund center of original post, but I saw that it does not happend.
We have to chage customizing in FMDERIVE or we have to do something else in FM customizing?
Thanks.

Hi Oscar. Im afraid i could t fully help,I also don't know to much abut FM, just analyze the derivation process (if you plan to work with FM, its a good idea cos FM sometimes is a headache). If you want to analyze a specific case you can do the following
1. Activate the trace (666322 - Derivation tool in the FM: Trace function)
2. do the close for just 1 material in CKMI. Here, you see the trace and can identify the rule that trigger this stuff. I guess this give you an Idea.
Additional ideas:
+ I think COGS accounts and ML Accounts (pry, prv, prd, COC, kdm, UMB, ) must not be relevant to FM (you dont control budget for this stuff, its not logical). Maybe one of our friends could give us un Idea:
Ajay Maheshwari SAP Trainer I want to know if we can define a specific account be not relevant to FM? In resume, ML close trigger some account post that must not control budget, but if they are asking for a Fund or doing derivations, is because there is a config that trigger this stuff. I really appreciate if you clarify this idea.
Also, Oscar say this stuff looks related with CO-PA, i mean the FM post is trigger if the account post to PA.
+ Oscar, if you don't want to worry create a derivation for this accounts and set a dummy fund center (i dont like this solution)
Wish someone clarify your question Oscar, Im also interested!

Listed Material errors with "Material is not listed therefore not allowed"

Hi Gurus,
When trying to key an order for a customer with a listed material it is being reported as not listed. Other materials listed against the customer are working and have been keyed in via VB01 with a valid date range.
I have been debugging PRICE_LIST_EXCLUSION function which is called during listing validation without success.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Will

Discovered the issue. A user had keyed in listing incorrectly for the sold to instead of exclusively at the payer level. Deleted these sold to listing entries and resolved the issue.

Limit Material PO with Material code at the time of Invoice

Hi Experts,
We have ECC 6.04...We have below requierment :
Service Person goes on customer site and see the Problem....before going he creates some Limit PO with with approx amount Limit PO ( for Materials and Not Service).... with Free Text...with Mat Group....because he don't know initialy exactly how much Material will code and exact which material will requiered ...
Then while sending Invoice Supplier send Itemized Material which is in our as well as in his Master data...while posting Invoice system should able to specify me the Material codes......
I checked Item catagory B....but it don;t allow it..
Can some please suggest me....whether any how it is possible is Std SAP ? if Not by doing some enhancement or using some user exit...is it possible ?
Thanks in advance !

Edited by: NarendraPatil on Jan 23, 2012 8:42 PM

Can elaborate more the process? Your customer will request some service and hence it will create a CS order (or sales order) in your system.
What is the use of PO in that case? why do you need to create PO before even visiting the customer site?
And these itemised bill is not just required to be entered in PO, but I guess also on your sales order.
Let us know the entire process.

MATERIAL LEDGER AND PRICE CONTROL V

Hi Gurus.
In a Plant I've activated material ledger and some materials have price control V. how does price control V works with material ledger? the average price is uptated at the end of the month or is updated with every receipt?
Kind Regards.

Hi Andres,
What is the price determination indicator in material master? is it 3 or 2?
Materail ledger during the Actaul Costing Run consider only the price determination indicator 3 material masters.
Generally all BOM component material masters, we should maintain price determination indicator 3 and price control S.
All other materials you can have price determination indicator 2 and price control V.

FIFO Valuation with Material Ledger !

Hi,
How do we accomplish FIFO Valuation using Material Ledger ?
We have activated the Material Ledger, with Single - Level Determination; Standard Price S. On execution of Single-Level Price Determination, we get the Periodic Unit Price -- which is the Weighted Average Price for the Receipts for the period involved.
I came across SAP Forums, which claim that Material Ledger is the FIFO Valuation on real-time basis. However, this doesn't seem to be true. The Goods Issued are assigned the Periodic Unit Price (calculated above -- i.e the Weighted Average Price ).
In addition, we have Configured the FIFO Balance Sheet Valuation Procedure, through the MM menu. The FIFO Value for the Material is giving weird results. Adding the total Inventory for all the Receipts till date and over-riding the period selection for Single Receipts. For monthly receipts, the system just gives the Weighted Average Price again.
The Business is expecting the FIFO valution for the Inventory Balance on Monthly Basis. ( We are using Material Ledger, so that we can roll-up this FIFO Valuation of the Raw Material ito Gross up into the Finished Product
-- Thanks

Hi Kenny ,
BASIC STEPS THAT CAN BE FOLLOWED FOR ENDING INVENTORY VALUATION :
Ending Inventory is valued as per FIFO calculated through following steps:
     Run the price calculation (Txn: KSII) u2013 check that all      auxiliary Cost centers are zero
     Run Txn:MRF3 (summarization of documents for the      FIFO calculation.)
     Run MRF1 (calculation of FIFO)
     Check if the FIFO calc. is correct via MR35
After ML run the ending inventory value should be equal to the value in MR35 and so balance amount not yet loaded to ending inventory through FIFO valuation is posted to consumption
Exception: If total receipts for a period is less than ending inventory quantity .In this case the EI is valued at weighted average
Please check wether the steps have been properly followed and the execption doesnot exists..
Also, hope your Price Determination is "3" and price control is "S" in Material Master..
Regards
Sarada
