Hi,
1)In MB5L sales order stock not valuated,
Check it for Finished goods with special stock.
Don't give Valuation class.
2)You can analyse the material with respect to Valuation class in Mc.1,Mc.9 and with G/L account.

    Thank you

    The reasons are like this:
    a. Manual entries into the stock accounts
    b. there have been movements where the system has done only material documents and no corresponding accounting documents have been created.
    eg of a situation: You  have V price set for the material. But you never maintained any price in the Material master. Then the system will not throw an error, it just creates the materil document without creating the accounting document
    at the time of initial upload, there is high opportunity of such errors.
    rectification:
    a. develop a query linking the material document header and the BKPF reference field.
    b. develop a query to list down the accounting document header information posted in these accounts. the reference procedure should be MKBF (i do not remember exactly?) But it fills with a particular value if its from MM. Check for all the documents that have been posted to these accounts without this parameter in the header. Here you go..

  • MB5L Report Discrepacy for Material and Stock Account Currency

    I have found in the MB Report Discrepancy for Material and Stock Account Currency. Why is this happening? Why is there a variance between total price in materials and stock account? Anyone please help me. I'm abaper but now been pushed to do logistic. I need help for this issue.

    Hi,
    Here's some information from help. Variances can occur for the following reasons:
    You have entered postings to the stock account manually.
    The stock account includes not only stock postings, but also other postings. In this case, you should check the account determination in the Customizing for Valuation and Account Assignment. Make sure that the stock accounts are used solely for the transaction key BSX (stock postings).
    Check Account Determination - OMWB
    The account assignment for the stock accounts (transaction key BSX) was changed during productive operation; the respective stocks, however, were not deducted from the old account (movement type 562) and posted to the new one (movement type 561).
    Cheers !

  • G/L Account Determination - Variance - Expense and Stock Account

    Hi All,
    Under G/L Account Determination -> Purchasing tab -> General tab the last account is called "Expense and Stock Account", in some versions the same is called "Variance Account - Expense and Stock Account". In the help file and on the SAP Portal it is explained to be used as:
    "Define a variance G/L account for clearing journal entries created by A/P credit memos that were based on A/P invoices or created by goods return that were based on goods receipt POs, in which the freight charges or the price were changed."
    I'm trying to test this but recreating the scenarios described above the account will not be used. Can anyone help me what am I missing?
    Thanks and regards,
    Nat

    Hi ShriX,
    I understand but my problem is when I'm testing these scenarios, in my test system the account is not used at all. For example I have an AP Invoice and when I turn it to an AP Credit Memo I change the price of the item. I would expect a posting to this account as it is specified in the help file, but in my case it doesn't happen. Do you know why?
    Thanks and regards,
    Nat

    Malhoutra,
    Using a JE template is almost the same as using a document template (you will have to use service typre documents). The document will create a JE.
    The difference is that it allows you to create the actual document types which make up the BP balance, so the team will be able to see each open invoice and credit note separately. This helps when reconciling future payment receipts and providing good aging reports.
    You can achieve the same by creating a line for each document in your journal lines template.
    You will need to use documents for items as you are bringing in quantity and values which cannot be done with journals. If you are managing item cost by warehouse, you will need a document line with quantity and cost in each warehouse for each item. Using the inventory general entry template will set the item cost properly in the system in the Master data when processing new transactions.
    Gordon is correct, there are many ways to achieve what is required, each partner will use what they are used to and know will work for the customer - as each customer is different too.

  • Grc and stock account

    hi,
    i have 2 issue to seek advice.
    after invoice posted, following correction.
    1) if use credit memo/invoice with reference to PO. with qty change, the double entry will be dr vdr cr GRC. may i know how system treats the difference of GRC? the difference goes to which account?
    2) if use subsequent dr with reference to PO, no qty change, the double entry will be cr vdr dr stock. meaning GRC already netoff during invoice posted. now the changes is directly updating stock account (stock acc which associated to valuation class)?
    thanks

    Hi,
    For your questions:
    1. The difference of credit memo will be booked into the account of purchase price variance!
    2. Your understanding is correct!

  • Mismaching sale order balance and gl account balances

    Hi experts,
    we have made a 'z' report which is sales register. in sales register the base is sales orders. in sale register updates through condition type which assigned in pricing procedure.In sales register we can see the sales order amount,cst,vat,ed cess,higher ed cess and net sales. But the problem is when i comparing the sales register with sales account, it's mismatching the amounts.
    plz give me good advice to match both.
    thanks in advance
    regards
    sandhati

    Hi sandhani,
    VFX03 shows all invoices with accounting errors which have not been posted to the AR/GL.
    This transaction should be executed daily otherwise you will have inconsistencies between the sales ledger and the AR/GL.
    Hope this is a little help for you.

  • Differences between New GL balances and Asset accounting

    Hi
    We just went live at a customer with a new reporting solution in the New General ledger. We have activated document splitting on the business area (Without mandatory BA) together with the business area scenario. The customer was already live with New GL with document splitting on profit center accounting.
    After activation of the BA dimension we transfered all of our assets from the business area blank into their correponding business areas. This went fine for most of our assets except for 2 assets. When changing the business area Aquisition values and acc. depreciations where moved from blank to their target BA in the General ledger view of the documents and likewise in table FAGLFLEX. However for the 2 assets in question the same postings occured but the sending BA is equal to the target BA. The result is that the asset values are moved in AA but not in the general ledger. The asset master change log shows that the BA was changed from blank to 0099 on the conversion date.
    This brings out several questions:
    Why does these 2 assets behave like this while all the other 5000+ assets behave correctly?
    How do we correct it  if we can't find the cause? Is there a way to adjust values separately in the GL?
    We do expect this inconsistency to cause problems at year-end
    Thanks

    Hi
    How did you transfer the assets from Blank BA to BA 0099?? Was it just changing in AS02??
    I believe you would have taken SAP's SLo service for making changes in DOc Splitting..  So, contact SAP for the same
    In GL you can rectify using ABF1 i.e. you wil be able to post an entry directly in asset recon accounts... Refer note 69925 for more details

  • Does the stock account balance show the profit & loss amount?

    When the goods are received from the vendors the postings are as follows :-
    debit stock with the purchase price
    credit vendors with the purchase price
    However when a sales invoice is posted how will it decrease the stocks account? can someone tell me the postings for sales invoice? because if the postings for sales is going to be like this :-
    credit stock with the sales price
    debit customer with the sales price
    then how can we calculate profit in the above situation? does it mean the net balance of the stock account will be the profit figure? because if the purchase price of the stock is 100 and the sales price is 150, then the stocks account will have a balance of 50 in the credit side in the above example.
    does it mean the balance of stock account will be the profit amount?

    Every material has a price in its master data. When goods are received, the system reads the value from material master and makes the entry as follows
    Dr Stock Cr. GR/IR (later when invoice come, the vendor is credited, debiting GR/IR). (Any difference in PO price to the material master, will be posted to price difference account if you maintain Standard price)
    The sales process happens in two stages: 1st the goods issue and 2nd billing. When goods are issued,
    Dr.COGS
    Cr. Inventory (with the same Material master price.)
    At billing
    Dr. Customer
    Cr. Sales.
    Stock account will only keep track of goods movement, how much came in and how many have gone out. This should not be considered to ascertain P&L. Should you need to find the P&L, you need to find the difference between the sales account and the Cost of goods sold account.

  • Stock account currency field in MB5L report

    Hi!
    can any one tell me in MB5L report for field materials currency and stock account currency, from system will pick up the values?
    I think materials currency field will pick up from GL accounts?
    But stock account currency, from where it will pick up value?
    regs,
    ramesh b

    Hi!
    both are not GL account balances.
    I have studied the report and understood.
    the material currency field: just it will take total stock avialable * std price/MAV price ( it will be equal to value in material master, MB5B, MB51 )
    the stock account currency field: it will take GL account balance via valuation class ( OBYC setting BSX)
    Here for example if you select only one material in MB5L report , it won't show the GL balance pertaining to that material, it will simply show the total GL balances that means system won't check material number existed in line items ( BSEG table).
    any way thanks for your inputs.

  • Time Balance = First for account in HFM

    Hi All!
    Is it possible in HFM to get correct results in summary time periods for "Opening" account (like in Planning when you setup account Time Balance property as First).
    For example:
    I have such accounts: CFOpening (Balance type), CFFlow (Flow type), CFClosing (Balance type)
    and amounts
    for Jan:_
    CFOpening = 100
    CFFlow = 50
    CFClosing = 150
    for Feb:_
    CFOpening = 150
    CFFlow = 50
    CFClosing = 200
    for Mar:_
    CFOpening = 200
    CFFlow = 50
    CFClosing = 250
    for Q1_ I want see this results:
    CFOpening = 100 (amount from Jan)
    CFFlow = 150 (sum of Jan-Mar)
    CFClosing = 250 (CFOpening + CFFlow)
    but now I have:
    CFOpening = 200 (amount from Mar)
    CFFlow = 150 (sum of Jan-Mar)
    CFClosing = 350 (CFOpening + CFFlow)
    How can I get correct result for Q1 in such case?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    In HFM balance accounts behave as ending balances, so that the YTD value is always equal to Periodic value. Your CFOpening account is declared as balance, accordingly HFM understands that March value (200) behaves like ending balance of this account. Therefore Q1 ending balance of the account is 200, it cannot be 100 unless you redefine your rules to set your CFOpening account always to the year beginning value (or previous year's ending balance). That is for all months CFOpening will be 100 for all months. But then you would have a problem of adding up balance and flow accounts. Because flow accounts unlike balance accts have different YTD and Periodic values. Usually, we overcome this problem by declaring all accounts as balance, at the expense of losing the Periodic values of the CFFlow account.

  • Transfer opening balance for GL accounts and AR, AP accounts

    Ideally, One journal entry for all GL accounts is advisable. Open a clearing account. Debit all GL balances and credit the clearing account. For credit balances, debit the clearing account and credit the GL accounts.
    For open items in AR and AP use LSMW tool, this would take care of the postings to recon accounts also.
    For asset balances, depreciation balances use the LSMW tool. For any other balances, ensure credit or debit to the clearing account, like opening stocks etc.
    At the end of the process, ensure clearing account is zeroed

  • Deifference between GL balance and Vendor Subledger account

    Dear
    I have found the difference between GL A/C balance and vendor Balance report on the reconciliation account for the comapny code.
    What i haev observed is that every year , the balance carry forward amount if difference on General Ledger report (S_ALR_87012277) and Sub Ledger report (S_ALR_87012082)..
    Why the amount is different on these two report. Principally, when ever we post any amount to vendor account , the entry is passed on to Subledger account.
    Here when i do run Gl report and Subledger report for same account lets say 1610000 recon account, he balances are different.
    What can be the reason and how to correct it?
    Thanks

    Hi
    There could be many reasons:
    1. You have posted Special GL Transactions to vendor, which is a subledger A/c. In such a case, system would post to different reconciliation accounts.  Check for totals of all the reconciliation a/c
    2. There is a change in the reconciliation a/c  in the vendor master and you have not run F101 for the same
