Calculating previous period inventory

Hi All
Is it possible to find out the inventory in a particular period. Like if I want to find out what was the inventory available in 2nd period of 2009.
I know from MBEW we can pick up the inventory in current period, previous period and previous year's inventory.But is it possible to find out for a particular period.
Thanks.

Hi
Try in MB5B or S_P00_07000139 reports, and also MBEWH table.
Thanks

"Previous Period" Calculation

I'm building a 12 monthl trend reports in Deski and need to call a previous period value (which i halve already retrieved in the query) into a current period calculation. The example would be "Installation Revenue divided by Previous Period Installations". Is there an easy way to do this?

You try to create a variable using the "Previous" function in Deski and use this variable in your calcualtion.

R12 - FSG: Calculation Using Previous Period Balance

My client has the following requirement for an FSG:
Period 1 Period 2 Period 3, etc.
Row 1 PTD Actual/Account
Row 2 PTD Actual/Account
Row 3 PTD Actual/Current period -less- PTD Actual/Previous period
In other words, for 1 row of the report, we need to display the period's activity instead of the ending balance.
What would be the best way to do this?

Periodic Inventory System

Hi All,
I am new here so please can you explain Periodic Inventory in SAP Business one. I am using SAP Business One 8.8.
Thanks

Hi Sameer,
Just copy below text and paste it in notepad.....
Perpetual vs. Periodic Inventory System Journal Entries
A. The Sale and Purchase of Products
Perpetual inventory systems show all changes in inventory in the "Inventory" account. Purchase accounts are not used in a perpetual inventory system.
Periodic inventory systems keep the inventory balance at the same value that it was at the beginning of the year. At year end, the inventory balance is adjusted to a physical count. To account for inventory purchases in a periodic inventory system, an account called "Purchases" is used rather than debiting "Inventory".
    Example: (Unit cost is held constant to avoid the necessity of a using
               a cost flow assumption)
                   Beginning inventory      100 units @ $6 = $ 600
                   Purchases                900 units @ $6 = $5,400
                   Sales                    600 units @ $12 = $7,200
                   Ending inventory         400 units @ $6 = $2,400
         Perpetual Inventory System       |    Periodic Inventory System
      1. Beginning inventory 100 units at $600
          Inventory account shows         | Inventory account shows
          $600 in inventory.              | $600 in inventory.
      2. Purchase of 900 units at $6 per unit
          Inventory            5,400      | Purchases           5,400
             Acc. Payable            5,400|     Acc. Payable           5,400
      3. Sale of 600 units at a selling price of $12 per unit
          Acc. Receivable      7,200      | Acc. Receivable     7,200
             Sales                   7,200|     Sales                  7,200
          Cost of Goods Sold   3,600
No entry
             Inventory               3,600
      4. End-of-period entry for inventory adjustment
          No entry needed.                | Inventory            1,800
          The ending balance of inventory |    Cost of Goods Sold 3,600
          shows $2,400.                   |    Purchases               5,400
      Note: The periodic inventory adjustment in transaction 4 adjusts
            inventory to the physical count, closes out any purchase accounts,
            and runs any difference through cost of goods sold.
B. Cost of Goods Sold in a Periodic Inventory System
Perpetual inventory systems record cost of goods sold and keep inventory at its current balance throughout the year. Therefore, there is no need to do a year-end inventory adjustment unless the perpetual records disagree with the inventory count. In addition, a separate cost of goods sold calculation is unnecessary since cost of goods sold is recorded whenever inventory is sold.
The inventory account in a periodic inventory system keeps its beginning balance until the end of period adjustment to the physical inventory count. Therefore, a separate cost of goods sold calculation is necessary. The following calculation shows the calculation for the preceding example.
                   Beginning Inventory                  600
                   Net Purchases                      5,400
                   Goods Available for Sale           6,000
                   Ending Inventory                   2,400
                   Cost of Goods Sold                 3,600
                                                     =======
C. Purchase Returns and Allowances and Purchase Discounts
"Purchases" has a normal debit balance since it replaces the debit to "Inventory". It has two contra accounts known as "Purchase Discounts" (Purch. Disc.) and "Purchase Returns and Allowances" (Purch. R&A) that reduce it to determine "Net Purchases". The balance of these two contra accounts is a credit because "Purchases" is a debit. Remember that contra accounts always have a normal balance that is opposite to what they are contra to. Purchase-type accounts are temporary accounts (i.e., they are closed at year end) and only appear in a periodic inventory system. They simply serve to replace the corresponding inventory portion of an entry that exists in a perpetual inventory system. The following entries illustrate purchase returns and discounts in perpetual and periodic inventory systems:
           Perpetual Inventory System    |    Periodic Inventory System
      1. Ace Company returned $600 of damaged merchandise and received a
          price reduction allowance of $100 on the portion of the merchandise
          they retained.
          Acc. Payable      700          |    Acc. Payable      700
             Inventory          700      |      Purch. R&A            700
      2. In a previous transaction, Ace purchased merchandise on account at
          a cost of $1,000. The credit terms were 2/10, n/30. Ace paid for
          the merchandise within the discount period.
          Acc. Payable    1,000          |    Acc. Payable    1,000
             Inventory              20   |       Purch. Disc.          20
             Cash                  980   |       Cash                 980
D. Sales Returns and Allowances and Sales Discounts
Sales has two contra accounts known as "Sales Discounts" (Sales Disc.) and "Sales Returns and Allowances" (Sales R&A) that reduce it. The normal balance for these two contra accounts is a debit. Sales and its contra accounts may appear with either a perpetual or periodic inventory system. The following entries illustrate the accounts in perpetual and periodic inventory systems. The entries assume the gross method.
           Perpetual Inventory System    |    Periodic Inventory System
      1. Sam Company received $600 of damaged merchandise from their customer
          Ace. They also gave Ace a $100 allowance for some of the damaged
          merchandise that Ace retained. The original cost of the merchandise
          returned to Sam was $400.
          Sales R&A             700      |    Sales R&A           700
             Acc. Receivable         700 |       Acc. Receivable       700
          Inventory             400
No entry
             Cost of Goods Sold      400
      2. Sam received a customer payment for a prior sale on account of $1,000
         subject to credit terms of 2/10, n/30. The customer made payment
         within the discount period.
          Cash                  980      |    Cash                980
          Sales Disc.            20      |    Sales Disc.          20
             Acc. Receivable        1,000|       Acc. Receivable      1,000
Sales on the income statement should be shown net of its contra accounts. For example, if a company has $980,000 in sales, $3,400 in sales returns and allowances, and $2,200 in sales discounts; net sales would be $974,400.

"lock" values of tax depreciation for previous periods

Hi all,
is it possible to lock calculated values of depreciation for previous periods? We need it for the case when e.g. depreciation key is changed. Then we want preserve the values for previous periods and change only the future values. But please note that we want this for depreciation area, which does not post values to GL.
thanks
Zbynek

Hi,
It did not work for me. I changed the useful life from 30 to 20 yrs and then used menu path Edit/Recalculate values. Then I used the Tx S_ALR_87012936 to display the depreciation values for individual months. But all the values were the same, i.e. the values for previous periods were not kept.
So is there a way to keep these values?
thanks,

Vendor evaluation report to be run for previous period

Hi,
Is the possible to run the Vendor evaluation report for back date.
i.e. if the period of evaluation is 30 days, can we run the report for previous periods
Regds,
Ritesh

Depending on the library you are using, can you verify whether you can use one of the following variables?
1PERIK
1PERW
5ACPERI
6-PERIK
8WPERIO
All these variables use fiscal periods and not calendar periods, that way you don't have to bother about number of weeks in a period, unless you really need to do the calculation based on number of days in a period.
If your library does not support these variables, then pl copy one of these variables (GS11) with appropriate details into a custom variable and use it in your report.
Let me know.

Calculating Total Ending Inventory

Hello BW Gurus,
I have a reporting question for you. Please reply back as soon as possible as I am nearing the deadline.
The scenario is as below:
I need to calculate the Total Ending Inventory and the formula is as below:
Total Ending Inventory = A B C + D + Last Period Total Ending Inventory
How would I calculate the Last Period Total Ending Inventory? Total Ending Inventory is just a Calculation and is stored no where in BW. Since I am running the report for the first time this month, Last period 'Total Ending Inventory' would be Zero for the current month. But current month's Total Ending Inventory would become next month's Last Period Total Ending Inventory. To acheive this, I need to store the Calculated Total Ending Inventory somewhere in BW so that I can pull this information when I am calculating next month's Total Ending Inventory.
Please let me know the solution and the steps involved as soon as possible.
Thank you very much in advance.
Best Regards,
Rajiv.

Hi Anil,
Thanks for your reply. The problem here is Total Ending Inventory is not a KF that is stored in a Cube. It is a calculated Key Figure. When I am calculating Total Ending Inventory I need to add last period's Total Ending Inventory to the calculation. Any idea on how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Best REgards,
Rajiv.

How to move stock to previous period

Hello MM Experts,
We need to make an inventory adjustment for period 31/12/2008, however it is now 03/01/2009. Our Controller has not closed out 12/2008. How can we post it to the previous period/year of 31/12/2008??
That I want to move the stock from 03/01/2009 to 31/12/2008.
Regards
Bhavesh

What Fiscal Year you are Using K4 or V3?
If ur using K4 then Reverse all the Posting and Repost again for Period 12.
If ur using V3 then Reverse all the Posting and Repost again for Period 10.

Table for previous period stock

Please provide me the table name or report from which I can get only quality stock in previous monht
I just need the quality stock in previous month
need a table

xxxxH tables certainly have correct data, just not in good readable form.
you need to use a function module to retrieve the previous period stock:
A calculation of previous period data for table MARD could have the following form.
select * from mard into table mard_tab where werks = 'ABCD'.
call function 'MARD_EXTEND'
    exporting
      xvper = 'X'
    tables
      mard_tab = mard_tab.
table MARD_TAB is filled with the previous period information.

Adding asset in the previous period and depreciation run

Hi Experts,
I want to know whether we can add an asset for the previous period and run the depreciation.
I will try explaining with an example.
Let us say,I forgot to add an asset and i want to add an asset now with date as 1st July 2008. Is it possible? If it is possible will the system calculate the depreciation from July or will it calculate from the date the asset has been added?
Please explain.
Thanks,
Sasidhar

Hi
It will allow you to add a new asset in the closed period with few conditions
Since you have given in your example as july 2008, check whether your FI year is open. Then check the asset period whether its opened are closed
If all the periods are not resticting you, you can go a head with adding an asset
Your depreciation will be calculated from the date of purchasing, that means only the calculationg will happen from that period and not the accounting entry
You will have only one planned depreciation from july to current period as per your example. So when your running the planned depreciation run for the current period, the entire depreciation will get posted now
You can do repeat run only for one period prior to the current planned period and not at any prior period
So with your example of july 2008, if your running AFAB monthly, repeat run may not work
Warm Regards
Bala

Query for Previous Period Accumulated Dep

Can someone suggest me the best way to query the previous period accumulated depreciation for an asset.
I am facing with every way I have tried.
1st Way = Current Accumulated - Current Month Deprn (FA_DEPRN_SUMMARY). But in case of retired assets, the Current Accumulated becomes 0. So, this wudnt be a correct value to display.
2nd Way = Going back one period and taking the Accumulated Depreciation value. This is very problematic in queries. I got error for some dumb scenario I didnt test in the query. Apparently if there are more than 2 rows in FA_DEPRN_DETAIL, then 2 records will return instead of one.
Can someone help me out.
Regards

Hi,
Check why the amounts in accum dep is calculating less amounts?
If your dep key and dep rates are correct, then there is no problem with the dep calculations.
Still if you feel that, a particular asset is to be depreciated more than the planned dep, you must perform a unplanned dep postings with Tcode ABAA
Before doing this you must have been done the config for the unplanned dep via the below tcodes.
OABU, and AO95.
Then try to post run planned dep with ABAA now, since this will only create an internal asset accounting document for the date 31.03.2009.
So if you run the dep run for the 12 period (if you follow apr-mar) with repeat option and by selecting list assets and execute it.
Here you see an separate dep doc will be generated for unplanned dep for your asset.
hope this might help you.
Thanks,
Srinu

How to zero previous period stocks?

Hi MM gurus,
I want to activate batch management tick for existing materials which are not activated a batch management tick. To activate batch management tick it is needed to maintain zero stocks in current period and previous period.
Current period is not a problem. But how to zero previous period stocks?
Is there any way by posting a physical inventory adjustment to previous period? If so how to post a PI doc to previous period.
Please reply me ASAP.
thanks
Sandun

You can do it with movement type 201.
Make sure that it is allowed to post to previous periods (MMRV transaction for MM- but as well in finnace needed)
if previous period stock is 50
and current stock is 100
then you just need to do a 201 with a date from previous period for 50 and a 201 for 50 in the current period.
but
if previous period stock is 50
and current stock is 20
then you need to do a 202 movement in current period for 30 followed by a 201 movement for 50 previous period
