Canceling Material Ledger

Hi all,
I need to understand better which are the consequences in material ledger canceling procedure described in the following SAP notes:
SAP Note 108374 - Canceling material ledger production startup
SAP Note 425487 - Deactivating the material ledger in production systems
In particular I'm intrerested in which are the tables anda data involved by the deleting procedure.
My goal is the subsiquent reactivation  of the material ledger in a multiple valuation scenario as described in the SAP note:
SAP Note 120380 - Subsequent activation of multiple valuation approaches
Thanks in advance  for your cooperation.
Best regards, ALDO26X1

The following tables contain data that can appear in the material ledger documents:
· MLHD Material Ledger Document: Header
· MLIT Material Ledger Document: Items
· MLPP Material Ledger Document: Posting Periods and Quantities
· MLPPF Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Posting Periods and Quantities)
· MLCR Material Ledger Document: Currencies and Values
· MLCRF Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Currencies and Values)
· MLCRP Material Ledger Document: Price Change (Currencies, Prices)
· MLMST Material Ledger Document: Costing Run Header Data
The following types of material ledger documents are available, differing by transaction type:
· CL Material Ledger Closing Entries
· UP Material Ledger Update
· PC Price Changes
· ST Single-Level Price Determination
· MS Multilevel Price Determination
· RE Material Ledger Data Repairs
USE :
Material ledger documents are data that is recorded during each business transaction that is relevant to valuation. You can archive documents for closed periods when they are no longer needed for material price determination or reporting purposes. Archiving the documents deletes them from the database.

  • How to reverse material ledger closing entries beyond  previous period?

    In a test system, the system does not permit reverse material ledger closing entries. The current period is 04/2008.
    Getting a message C+716 message
    You want to cancel closing entries in valuation area XXXX for period 008 in fiscal year 2007.
    You are allowed to cancel closing entries only in the previous period. Reversing closing entries for periods before the previous period is not possible.
    There are provision to run closing entries like  MUST_SETTLE in the ok code features, Are there,any such for reversal? Could there be any work-around?

    Hi David
    If you dont need to perform the close itself but would just like to get the periods in the correct status you can use the process outlined in note 645083.
    In the material ledger, it may be necessary for different reasons to manually set the period status of materials in former periods to 70 ("Closing Entry Completed") without actually carrying out the closing entry.
    It provides program Z_ML_SET_PP_STATUS_70 that will allow a manual update to the prior period status.
    There is a pre-requisite regarding revaluation amounts, but this is all described in the notes.

  • Material was not bound to the material ledger

    Hello,
    When I run the entry markers (TCODE MIGO) the error message appears C+470 - Lack of connection material 16243 to 16243 at the center material ledger.
    Diagnosis:
    An error occurred when creating or modifying the view of evaluating the material. The material was not bound to the material ledger.
    System activity:
    The update operation is canceled.
    Procedure:
    Contact SAP support.

    I checked that note, I changed the type of material in MMAM ROH to Hawaii, but the LM still active disabled.
    Then I went in again and ran for MMAM HAWA to ROH, and the asset continues LM disabled.
    I need to activate the LM active for this material.
    I'm working with version 6.0.

  • Material ledger is not active in valuation area C002

    Dear All,
    I have a Scheduling Agreement for a material 'A' with Vendor 'V' with diff prices with validity dates, I did the GR & when i am posting the invoice thro' miro, system is throwing error as above Material ledger is not active in valuation area C002 Why should I activate the material ledger here ? Pls suggest how can i solve this ?

    Hi
    For a Particular material, Material Ledger is active or not? Can be checked in Accountig view of Material Master.
    Why we need Material Ledger?
    A fundamental task of the material ledger is carrying inventories in multiple currencies and/or
    valuations.
    Material inventory values are normally carried by the SAP system in one currency. The material
    ledger component enables the R/3 System to carry inventory values in two additional
    currencies/valuations. Therefore, all goods movements in the material ledger are performed in up
    to 3 currencies or valuations. Currency amounts are translated into foreign currencies at
    historical exchange rates directly at the time of posting. Businesses such as those in highinflation
    countries can therefore carry their inventories in a more stable currency (such as US
    dollars). This reveals inflationary effects on inventory values.
    If you use transfer prices to represent value flows in your company in different
    valuation views, you must use the material ledger. This allows you to carry your
    inventories in three different valuations (legal valuation, valuation for reporting
    purposes, and profit center valuation).
    Before activating the material ledger, make sure you know which currencies and valuations
    you want to use, because you cannot go back and change the setting.
    Activating the material ledger is a prerequisite for using multiple valuations.
    Thanks

  • Material ledger is not active in valuation area S001

    Dear All,
    I have created a Scheduling Agreement & did the GR. When I am doing invoice posting system is throwing error as Material ledger is not active in valuation area S001
    What might be wrong here ? For same material if I create PO then everything is working fine. Problem is only with SA.
    regds,

    Hi,
    Please check your Material Ledger Activation  setting for the Valuation AreaC002 in T-code OMX1. The Check box for the ML activation against the Valuation Area-S001 may be ticked.  After activation/ticking this box, T-code CKMSTART was not executed to complete the ML activation.  If you want the activation of Material Ledger, you have to run T-code CKMSTART to complete this ML activation or Otherwise uncheck this box.  I hope this step will resolve your issue.

  • General  Ledger Special Ledger out of balance *URGENT* Material Ledger???

    We've activated Material Ledger in a company code in Jan'07.
    Accounting document created because of 102 Movement type FI document looks fine but in Special Ledger document dollars against Group currency are posted to Price Difference account? This is not happening for all 102movement type documents but i couldn't establish the pattern! Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Some background: 
    Company code and Controlling Area both got USD as main currency.
    This problem is sporadic and with 102 movement type only.
    Materials causing issue got Price control 'S' and Price determination '2"

    Hi Raghu,
    Probably I am mistaken; I was talking about SPL field movements and user exits used there. you can check that through transaction GCB2 where ledger is assigned to a company code and then u can drill down to activity and field movement assigned to the activity and can find if a user exit is used to post to a price difference account.
    Let me know if I am talking about relevant stuff here. If it is with SPL then I can help u more.
    Thanks,

  • GR/IR account problem with material ledger

    Hi,
    I just found an issue as effect of material ledger implementation.
    after the material ledger is active, when we post a transaction in foreign currency (invoice receipt), the LC 2 amount of GR/IR account is somehow different from the document amount, and the difference is transferred into Material price difference account that we maintain in OBYC - PRD transaction.
    because of this, the LC2 amount of  GR/IR account can't be cleared.
    any suggestion, please?
    thanks,
    Nasikhin

    hi,
    It will affect your valuation for the document, which are still open..
    You shd run this only after closing all documents and completing whole MM cycle..
    Once this is run, you can't go back and make settlements...
    So, beware...

  • Error While cancelling material document

    Hi ,
    I Want to cancel a material document which was posted some five months back in current period because already the period is closed and mean time the price of the material also has changed ,now while I am trying to cancel the document system throughs an error that document cannot be posted error in price determination what may be the cause and how to rectify.
    Regards

    Hi Vijikantha,
       If you are trying to cancel material documents created related to delivery, you can reverse the delivery through VL09. Any material documents for goods receipt can  be cancelled through MBST. If there is a problem with the posting period, please take the help of Finance guy to open the previous period and try to post the document.

  • Material Ledger Unit Of Measurement different from Material Master

    Dear Team,
    In my client, there is a difference between unit visible in CKM3N and MM03. The base unit of measurement in MM03 is MT. Other than that, there are some other units maintained (not M3) in additional data tab in material master. In CKM3N, the visible unit is M3. M3 is not present anywhere in MM03.
    Why would such unit flow in material ledger table? (CKMLPP has unit M3). Please advise.
    One more observation is that when there is some price change document in Material Ledger, the proper UoM (MT) is being captured. Only in the basic price determination structure visible unit for each head is M3. Please check the attached screen shot.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Material Ledger - confirmation in different months

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a problem as follows:
    We are using material ledger for actual costing. When we post partial confirmation for a production order in period t, goods receipt and goods issue is posted for period t. However, in some cases, confirmation is posted although one material has not arrived at the factory yet and that material is not assembled on the finished product in period t, but it is assembled in period t+1. In this case, when we close material ledger, we receive an error as "there are nondistributed rows" in transaction CKM3. How can I solve this problem either in logistics side or financial side?
    Thanks and cheers,
    Fatih Zenginer

    Hi Faith,
    Are you familiar with transaction CKMVFM - Value Flow Monitor? You can analyze Not Distributed differences with this transaction. The price limiter is the key.
    Thanks,

  • Valuation area not yet productive with material ledger

    While doing goods receipt at MB1C,i got the below error:
    The description of the error is given below
    Valuation area XXX2 not yet productive with material ledger
    Message no. C+020
    Diagnosis
    The material ledger has been activated for the valuation area but material data has not yet been converted in this valuation area.
    Procedure for System Administration
    If you want to work with the material ledger, choose Accounting -> Controlling -> Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Utilities -> Production Startup.
    There you can convert the data for the material ledger by following the instructions in the online documentation.
    Note
    Setting the material ledger to productive cannot be undone.
    See also:
    Actual Costing/Material Ledger in the SAP Library.
    The implementation guide for Actual Costing/Material Ledger.
    Can you kindly suggest me how to fix this error.
    Regards
    Sabera

    Hi Sabera,
    The Valuation Area is not activated for your material ledger. Go to SAP Access>>Accounting>>Controlling>>product cost controlling>>Actual Costing>>environment>>Production Start up>>Set Valuation area as productive.
    If you already activated Valution area in to Productive Statge.
    Then go to T.Code OMX1 and for your valuation area XXX2 tick the ML activation box.
    the error wont come

  • Material ledger Tables

    Dear All,
    Issue: Not able to post Good receipt due to the error that material does not exit.
    Background:  we have activated user exit in material master for material type ZROH and assigned a internal number range to it in MMNR. this user exit will append the material group mentioned during master creation in the internal code generated by system.
    example PPMM is the material group and the internal code generated by system is 122222 so when we save the material in mm01 our material code is PPMM122222.
    we are trying to do GR by 501 and now the material ledger function module is truncating PPMM from the material code and its trying to post document with 1222222. which then goes into error that material does not exist.
    Analysis: I have checked in the MARA/MARC the material code is PPMM1222222.  but i guess in some table whcih is relevant for material ledger system has stored internal material number 1222222.
    So I am looking for tables or solution for this isssue

    Hi Expert,
    Please refer the SAP Standard Material Ledger Tables:

  • Issue with Standard Cost estimates / Material Ledger

    Background:
    We have been using SAP for the last 5 years with Material Ledger active. Due to a number of reasons, we have not revised its standard cost estimates from 2001 till now. This means that at month end, we do not mark and release prices as recommended, nor do we mark prices and use dynamic release.
    What Happened:
    A new material called PFSW3 was made. This is a FERT. Before production
    could start my team released the standard cost estimate for this material. Production was now able to proceed without problem. Then, when the time came to sell the material (VF02), SAP again raised the error 'cost estimate not found'. On checking the standard price in MM03, we discovered that the future cost estimate was missing. So we created and marked a new cost estimate in the middle of February 2007.
    Problem:
    When the first sale took place, SAP released the marked cost estimate and posted a Price Change document to adjust for the new standard cost. I understand this was due to dynamic release. Now, when month end came, the system settled all the production orders of material PFSW3 but did not do multi level costing on it.
    Internal Investigation:
    My team has determined that the material PFSW3 has price determination 2 set by mistake. All our other production materials (HALB and FERT) are
    set to price determination 3 in the material master (accounting view).
    Questions:
    To sum this situation up,
    we need to know why the material PFSW3 was not marked closed in its period status (CKM3) at the time of closing through CKMLCP?
    What are the implications of not closing this material in Feb 2007 (current period status is showing 'Quantities and values entered')?
    How can we close this material this month?
    The future cost estimate is again missing for PFSW3 in March 2007 and I
    fear we are going to face more problems as this material is sold to customers.
    Please respond this is an urgent issue.

    Dear Shumyl,
    Please, have a look at Note 645083 - Material period status set to "Closing Entry Completed" that might help to closing your material in previous period.
    Hope it will be useful.

    Flaviano.

  • VPRS Cost in Material Ledger

    hi all,
    i have some problem here.
    we use 2 local currency. first local currency is IDR, and second local currency is USD.
    our client use material ledger, so in material master accounting 1, we maintain 2 value of inventory (in IDR and USD)
    let say we create material XXX (using standard price)  in 01 jan 2011 , with IDR value 1,000,000. the system will convert to USD with exchange rate in 01 jan 2011 (which is 10,000). so the USD value will be 1,000,000/10,000  = 100 USD.
    then in 10 january 2011, Sales order is created for material XXX with document currency USD .
    cond type VPRS get 1,000,000 IDR and covert to doc Curr (USD) with exchange rate in 10 jan 2011 (which is 9,000).
    so the VPRS value in USD will be 1,000,000/9,000 = 111,11 USD.
    by this case, the VPRS value in sales order is DIFFERENT with value in Material Master. it also become a problem when we want to see PROFIT MARGIN.
    can  cond type VPRS get the correct USD value according to Material Master?
    thanks.
    Best Regard,
    Hendry

  • Cost of goods manufactured vs COGS+ Material ledger

    Hi Experts,
    My company is implenting Material Ledger. They want to see the actual cost of goods manufactured. We are able to develop the actual cost of goods sold in COPA. The required report is to show:
    1- Direct material used at standard + variances (price + usage) to give the actual.
    2- Direct labor (standard + variances = Actual)
    3- Manufacturing overhead ( standard + variances = Actual)
    Attached excel file is showing the requirement.
    Your guidance to develop this report by any means (Report painter, BI, other).
    Regards
    Ahmed Zain Hassan

    Hi Ahmed / Ajay.
    1. In order reports KKO0, you dont see the revaluation of ML, as you said Consumption and Activities are revaluated at  Material level, and as far as i know, theres no way to add  records that represent the revaluation.
    2. The easy way to have a Order Report revaluated at actual cost is with LIS(Logistic InfoSys), creating a Z infostructure (eg copy lis S027) that store consumption and activity QTY, and a user exit  that read the actual cost of consumed materials (depending if this is V, S2, S3) and activities and revaluate. In LIS, there are standard way to "re-post" or repopulate the infostructures. This LIS can be reported with the standard functions (ReportPainter, quers on SQ01), or create a Z tcode that show the info stored in the way you want. Problem: Not all know how to customize LIS, and also you need code in the exit.
    3.  In my country (Peru), there are lots of companies that develop a Z Kardex valuated at actual cost (because, is a legal requirement), and also create Zprograms that calculate the order at actual cost (indeed, i create this reports twice). Its a bit complex, but not impossible and depends on custo EG if you have multiple valuations, you need to write code in order to get the infor for this specific valuations.
    4. About COPA, you can post to copa the Actual Cost Component Split calculated by ML. In this CCS, you can identify the Labor, Direct Materials, and overheads.  You have 2 options, You can post the delta to the original field or have an aditional field that store the difference. This stuff is done in KE27, i see 1 example in the SCN (i guess i bookmarked). Its important to understand you dont have the detail of the delta per consumed material, just an agregated value.
    Here is the link
    http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPFI/KE27+Periodic+Valuation
    5. There is a new ML DrillDown report functionality. Indeed, i couldnt spend time analizing the solution (my test system is with EHP5 and dont plant to upload the OSS), but i guess this is the future. You can look for info with tcode KKML0 in the marketplace, also check this oss 1639462 - ERP accelerators: enhancements in ML drilldown reporting
    My questions:
    What you want?
    + Order Report, i mean Cost detaild per Order? The Actual CCS por order?
    + Material Report? I mean, the monthly average of a Fert, and its CCS ?
    + a PA Report, that show Sales (Incomes), and Costs per matiral , split by Direct, Labor and OverHead?
