Change price control V to S

Hi there:
We wanted to change price control type from V to S and also need to input 20 usd as standard price, so I went ot mm02 to change price control V to S, after that,I used mr21 to update standard price, then I saw price change document posted, do I need to change other area? Please advise.

Hi,
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 For more information, see 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.

  • Changing price control indicator and posting difference to sperate account

    Dear Guru's
    Need your advice on how to handle the following scenario. Company wants to change the Price ontrol indicator in a material from V(moving price average) to S(Standard cost).However there is stock in the inventory for this item.Additionally they also want to change the price of the item with the difference posted to a seperate balence sheet account.

    Hello
    While changing the price control, 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.
    For changing the material price, use revaluation MR21.
    At the time of price change, for a material subject to standard price control, the material debit or credit is posted to a price difference account. The offsetting entry is made to an income or expense account. Consequently, a material debit or credit for a material subject to standard price control does not lead to a revaluation.

  • Change price control indicator from standard price to moving avg price.

    Hi All,
    There is a material which has a negative stock for the previous period and the previous period is already closed.
    When i want to change the price control indicator from S to V for that material in the current period, it shows an error that "negative stock is there, unable to change price indicator".
    Kindly help me to solve this issue.
    Thanks,
    AK

    the price control indicator can be changed  from standard price to moving avg price at any time .......with some restrictions.
    And one of these restriction is the one you see.
    You must not have negative stock.
    Hence you have to make the negative stock zero
    Since your negative stock is in the previous period, you either have to allow posting into previous periods (trx MMRV , of course Finance has to allow this as well)  first. Then you can post e.g. a 202 movement with previous period date  which has a quantity that equals your negative quantity. then you change your price control, then you do a 201 movement (again with previous period date), finally you can restrict posting into previous periods again in MMRV.
    or you just wait a few days, then with the month end closure your curent period becomes previous period and hopefully you will not have negative stocks again. then you can change the price control without any problem (I usually take care that moving average and standard price are equal befor I change the price control)

  • Price control for material

    Hi,
    i want to configure such that while making the material master it allows me the option either taken as V or S.
    Now i face the prob.that it not allow me  to change price control coming bydefault from OMS2 setting.

    Hi,
    In OMS2 setting if you set price control mandatory checked then you cannot change price control in material master.

  • Batch valuation with different price control

    Hi experts,
    Our requirement is to combine batch valuation and split valuation for the same material. We want to have valuation by batch (1 price for each batch). However, we need to classify the material into 2 types because of price control.
    Example:
    We classify batches into 2 types.
    - in-house production (Price control S)
    - purchasing (Price control V)
    Make use of user exit, we may have batches starting with:
    - PRD000001, PRD000002, PRD000003...
    - PUR000001, PUR000002, PUR000003...
    Our question is:
    How can we achieve the requirement where sometimes we want S and sometimes we want V at batch level?
    We understand that we can change the price control in material master after the batch is generated. But is it possible to change price control at the same time when batch is generated?
    Please feel free to give any idea. Thanks a lot.

    It is possible to have batch specific valuation by using valuation category X. This way, you will have a valuation type for each batch.
    If the batches are created in advance (and not during material movements), then it is possible to have a separate price control and valuation class depending on batch number.
    In your case, since the batch nomenclature for inhouse produced and purchased are different, it can be done without confusion.

  • Change of price control in material master

    Hi, SAP experts,
    We have  business scenario where the procurement type in MRP-2 view of material master gets changed from F to  E that is an externally procured item will be manufactured inhouse.
    In such case in costing view the price control needs to be changed from V to S. If both MAP & std. price  are not identical, system is not allowing to change. Secondly since the item will be manufactured inhouse from now onwards, I have to run the cost estimate & update the master.
    How do I deal with the situation.
    Valuable advice is awaited.

    T.S.Shankar

    Hi Shankar,
    When the price control indicator is "V", system will allow changing the Standard price manually through Transaction code MM02.
    Similarly when the price control indicator is "M", system will allow changing the Moving average price manually through Transaction code MM02.
    Hope this clarifies

  • Change of price control from "s" to "v" in the material master

    Dear All,
    Due to business requirement, we would like to change the price control for FERT items in the material master from "S-Standard Cost" to "V-Moving Average Price". This change we would like to do only at sales plants (Non-Manufacturing Locations). Very few materilas are having the stock on the date of the price control change
    I would like to know is there any SAP Note / Any of you are having such experience? Please arrange the same.
    Regards
    Anilkumar

    Hi,
       i am not sure about any program but through MR21 you can change tthe Price in material master.
    If stock is available system will hit to closing stock of the material for price change in case stock is not available it will hit price difference gl account.

  • *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 change

    Hi Experts,
    How to change the price control for a Raw material from Standard to Moving Avg Price (Material Ledger Active Status).
    This Raw materials having last year in Standard, now wants to change as per the requirement to MAP. Please advice.
    Regards,
    Raghav

    Hi Experts,
    My scenario is our company using ECC6.0, and the material ledger is activated.
    Wrongly last fiscal year for one plant nearly 50+ materials created under standard price with price determination as 2.
    (ROH - with Price control 'S' + Price Deterimination = 2) and all the materials having stock and values, transactions is going on.
    Now we realized that the raw materials created wrongly in standard price and want to change the price control and price determination. If we change the materials determination and control in CKMM what is the next impact for calculating next prices through cost estimates (CKMLCP or CK40N) and is it suggestable to do?
    We need your valuable inputs / advices....
    Thanks and Regards,
    Raghav.

  • Change of Price Control indicator.

    Hi,
    Under what conditions a maerial price control indicator can be changed from 'S' to 'V" and vice versa.
    Regards,
    R. Dillibabu.

    Hi,.
    If the material is split valuated you can ONLY change the V to an S on the accounting views that have a valuation type specified.
    You CANNOT under ANY circumstances change the V to an S on the "higher level" accounting view of a split valuation managed material (the higher level accounting view is the one where you do not specify a valuation type.).
    The reason you cannot is due to the fact that each valuation type below this higher level can have a different price and different stock quantities and so the higher level HAS to be an AVERAGE of the lower levels, managed by the system.
    There is no reason why you would ever want to change the higher level view from a V to an S because this view is not used for anything. It simply stores the average price and total value of stock across all valuation types. It is not used in any business transactions.
    Why do you want to change it from a V to an S?

  • Price control cannot be changed (cost control split exist)

    Hi FI Experts,
    When changing the  price control field in material master through MM02 from "V" to "S" , the following message is displayed.
    "Price control cannot be changed (cost control split exist)".
    What should i do to avoid this?
    Regards,

    Hi Sudharshan,
    Before changeing the Price Control from V to S please check the Moving Price and Std.Price is equal or not.
    This is one of the reason for that.

  • To change the price control of a material from "V" to "S"

    Dear all,
    I am facing an issue regarding Master's change.Actually ,In Material master i have to change the price control of a material from "V" to "S"& the standard price too. But when i am trying to do the same ,system is showing me an error as "Standard cost estimate exists in period 03 2007 "
    Plz suggest sol !!

    Hi,
    To clarify one point,
    You do not make the change via material types. As long as you are not using standard costing you can change the S to a V or the V to an S at any time even if stock and Open POs exist.
    The material type config merely controls which is defaulted (an S or a V) and can be set to block changes if you don't want it to be chnaged.
    But in most material types it is open for imput.
    If the material is subject to split valuation then you cannot change it to an S, it MUST be a V if the material has a valuation category (i.e. is split-valuated).
    Cheers

  • 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.

    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 .

  • Price control at the time of GR

    Hi
    There is a requirement to control the price based on the document date entered at the time of GR.
    The document date is nothing but the delivery challan date of the supplier.
    The requirement is due to frequent change in prices and retrospective price changes are to be addressed.
    Is there any userexit or note which can help achieve the above requirement.
    Thanks
    Rahul

    Hi Merwyn
    The example you have provided is the issue why i am unable to use the price control category 5 in the infor record or PO.
    Here the requirement is  as below:
    Price valid from 01.08.2008 to 31.08.2008--- Rs 25
    Price valid from 01.09.2008 to 30.09.2008--- Rs 28
    The vendor delivery challan is dated 30.08.2008
    The material reaches the customer on 02.09.2008
    The GR is prepared in the system with
    Document date - 30.08.2008
    Posting Date  -- 02.09.2008
    The GR value taken is Rs 28...but this will create problem in IR.
    Hence the requirement is to determine the basic price on the document date i.e the delivery challan date of the vendor.
    Thanks
    Rahul
