Configure Price Change in Previous Period/Previous

In costomization, Configure Price Change in Previous Period/Previous Year if we tick on price carried over to next year, then what will be the consequences?

Hi,
If the check box is ticked than when you change the price of a material in MR21 with the posting date of previous period this price change will be carried over to next period .simialrly posting a price change in current period will have effect on the current period as well as the next period. Unchecking this box means it is relavant for the period on which the price change document is posted.

MM:Price Change did not Carry forward from previous to current period

Hi Gurus,
Client has Reported that the Weighted Average Cost (WAC) was automatically reset to Zero in a particular Period and didn’t carry over from the previous period , The initial analysis was done and it was found that there is a configuration for “Price Change in Previous Period and not in current Period” which has to be maintained for the company code
The question is whether this configuration (“Price Change in Previous Period and not in current Period”) impacts both the Standard Price and
WAC or does this impacts only Standard price
Any pointers will be helpful, Will also Award Points

Closing material for previous period (CKM3)

Hi Guys,
I have a problem, which im going to close a material for current period with status "quantities and values entered".
But system wont allowed it, because the previous period hasnt close yet, and the status also "quantites and values entered"
Logically i need to close the previous period first. But if i do that, does it comes with an inventory journal impact?
How if i just want to close for the current period only..
Regards,
Beto

Hi,
First of all go to t code MMRV and check what period it shows there. If its a previous period then go to MMPV and close all the periods one by one.
Secondly check if your system has been Configured for Price Change in Previous Period/Previous Year in the IMG settings under MATERIAL MANAGEMENT - VALUATION AND ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT.
Thanks,

Two accounting docs in previous period MR21

Hi Friends,
I am doing price change and the "Configure Price Change in Previous Period" is active for company code means whatever price changes are made in previous period will get activated in current period.
Now I did the MR21 for one material in previous period and current period and in both cases one accounting document is created.
Now I did the MR21 for another material but this time two accounting document got created in previous period and one accounting document in current period.
So why two accounting document got created for second material in previous period?
Any pointers
Regards
Ashu

Hi Jurgen,
Thanks!
i)Material for which two accounting docs created in previous period:
In plant stock view: plant stock in current period is showing as 50- and in previous period is 30-
ii)And material for which one accounting docs created in previous period:
In plant stock view: plant stock in current period is showing as 1000- and in previous period is 0
Do I need to do GR against PO for 30 quantity in previous period ( say 3/2010) for case 1 to make the stock in previous to 0 from 30-.
Regards
Ashu

Getting a material Price change in a certain period

Hi everyone,
I would like to seek your help regarding a problem I have in MM module. I am not an MM person but I need something that came from MM module.
What I need is the price change of a material in a certain period. Is there any FM that I can use to do this? I need it to compute the ratio how a component material affects the price change of the header BOM material. So if we check the FI document posted for the header BOM material price change, explodes it and check if the components of that material had also undergone a price change in that period. So how will I check the price change done on that component material?
Thank you.

Hi,
I need to compute ratio so I need the price change. In the report, you need to drilldown first to see the document.
thank you.

Peculiar peoblem regarding the Material Price Change Posting MR21

Dear Experts,
I have got a peculiar peoblem regarding the Material Price Change Posting.
The transaction Used is MR21.
When the document was posted then the system has generated 2 Accounting documents one in Fiscal Yr 2007 and the other in 2008.
In 2007 document posting date 31.03.2008 the a/c entry was RM Inventory A/c Debit to Consumption A/c Credit. This entry is ok . But the system has simultainously generated another document with posting date 01.04.08 and here the document has the reverse entry ..... RM Inventory A/c Credit to Consumption A/c Debit.
Both the document was generated against a single Price Change Document. Both of then (A/c Docs) have the same number.
I am unable to find any justification or any solution to this issue .....
This issue has a high priority as ma client has to prepair their quaterly Balance Sheet.
So Please help me out ..... save me.......
Thnx

Hi,
Go to SPRO > MM > Valuation and Account Assignment > Configure Price Change in Previous Period/Previous Year > here check whether "Price carr.over" field is active for your Company Code.
It has following implications;
Price change: carried over from previous to current period: - Indicates whether price changes in the previous period or previous year are to affect the prices in the current period.
Use: - When you select this field, the price change is also valid for the current period.
If you do not select this field, the price changes in the previous period or previous year have no effect on the prices in the current period.
Note: - Please note that if you select this field, thus changing the price for the current period, it is not possible to reverse this change later.

Peculiar problem with Material price change in previous period

Hi All,
We have changed the material price in previous period using MR21. Ideally it should update MBEWH table only but it had updated MBEW table as well. The posting had been done on 4th Sep for the month of August.
Price carry over check box is not checked in the configuration for this company code.
Please help me out why it is happening for current period.

Dear,
Not to answer and solve your issue, but what I get information wish to inform you as:
MBWEH shows data only in those periods where there are material movements for this material.
And there is no automatic copy of all the MBEW data to MBEWH while performing MM period opening.
There is no program available to populate data in MBEWH, nor is it required.
You can searh for the last relevant data available in MBEWH if the period you search is not available. Hope this solves your problem.
Also check out the documentation for field MBEW-VMKUM (ie. data element VMKUM) in SE11 - it contains a decent description with examples.
Please let us know the solution other than this you get.

Syed Hussain.

Updating Price in previous period - Material master

Experts,
I create a new material and want to update the price in previous period. I update successfully through MR21. when i check material master price is shown only in previous period(May) and its howing current period price is ZERO.
Is it possible to bring the previous price to current price tab automatically?
R.S

Hi,
You may check in OMRN and set column price carried over.
In the case of a price change in the previous period or in the previous year, you must define whether the change also applies to the current period. You have two options:
The price change applies only in the previous period or previous year and does not affect the current period.
The price change also applies to the current period; the price in the current period is thus also changed automatically.
Activities
If you want price changes in the previous period or previous year to also change the price in the current period, select column
Price carried over.
Thanks and regards,
Polly

Can we change the company code posting periods to previous periods?

Hello folks,
I wated to change company code posting periods to previous posting periods.Right now the posting period for company code is 04/2008, and I want to make it to 10/2007. Is it possible.
I am doing this in Dev Sand box.
Thanks
Ravi

Path: SPRO->Logistics-General->Material master->Basic Settings->Maintain Company Codes for Materials Management.
In this configuration, you can change the posting periods. As mentioned earlier in one of the replies, this change is done with utmost caution as this could result in to data inconsistencies, if left open for a longer period of time.. It is advised to change this setting when no other document postings are allowed by other users...

GR IR clearance for previous periods

HI,
Our client is trying to clear GR IR Account via F.13. The OB74 settings was configured as WAERS (Currency )as Criteria 1 and PRCTR (Profit Center) as Criteria 2 for the Account Type u201CSu201D. Because of this setting the GR IR account got wrongly cleared from the year 2007. Now we are changing the setting in OB74 to ZUONR (Assignment ) as Criteria 1 and VBUND (Trading Partner) as Criteria 2 for the Account type u201CSu201D. I have also ensured that the GR IR GL account has u201C014u201D Sort Key in FS00.
Now the solution for the issue is to reverse all the cleared documents which got cleared wrongly in the previous periods and to run F.13 in the current period. My query is - is it possible to reverse the cleared documents as there might be PO and GRs archived. Will the archived documents/POs/Grs effect the clearing in the current year. Please suggest.
Regards,
S.Sumana.

Hi,
I do not think you really need to reverse any documents. You just need to reset the clearing between GR and IR document using t-code FBRA.
Th system will give you errors if you try to reset archived documents. In that case you can talkk to the basis person and check if he can selectively reload the archived tables. However I think it is not advisable to change anything on closed Financial Years as the accounts are already audited and resetting even the clearing will have impact on provisons made for pending GRs.
Or the other option would be to post new entries for the Opening GRs and IRs in current year. The business and auditors will have to take a decision how they want to offset these new postings.
In any case if GRIR clearing took place incorrectly in previous year, the provisioning would have gone wrong, so the offset can be given to the same provisioning account.
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,
Uma

Revaluation of Material for Previous Period

Dear All,
My client wants to do the revaluation of Material (finished goods & semi finished goods) of previous period with standard price. Is it possible to re valuate the material of third quarter (oct, nov, dec)? Below is the given example for the same.
Current Month FEB 2011
Avail Current stock = 100 qty
Current price = 40 inr
Total Valuation = 100 *40 = 4000/-
Previous Period October 2010
Oct Stock 60 qty.
Client has changed the price for October through MR21
New Price = 100
After changing the price system displays below doc.
Price Diff (100-40) = 60
Current Stock of Feb (100 * 60) = 6000/- (Valuation)
But our Client requirement is as given below for October Valuation
Price Diff = 60
Oct Stock = 60 qty
Valuation = (100 - 40 ) * 60 qty = 3600/-
Can you tell me why system is considering the stock of Current (Feb) Month instead of October month though we are doing the revaluation of October month.
Awaits valuable input.
Regards,
Nazia

hi
standard price only will revaluate the stock in the current month. that to the stock which is available in the inventory. how can the sytem know whether the stock is oct or nov.

Backposting is disallowed still we are able to post in previous period

Dear All,
We have disallowed backposting for one company code (MMRV)& it is also disallowed in OMSY transaction for that company code.Still we are able to post MR21 document in previous period.
Can you please let me know why this is happening & how we can prevent this from happening.
Thanks,

OSS Note 1134322 - MMRV and return postings to the previous period
clearly explains that MR21 is not possible :
Transaction MMRV closes the previous period for general goods movements, invoices, and so on. The following postings are still possible in the previous period after you close the previous period.
Goods movements for the physical inventory
Closing entry for actual costing in the material ledger
For the following operations, you can set whether postings in the previous periods are possible even after the previous periods have been closed:
Price changes (after you implement Note 1238496)
How did you check that this note is note in your system?
it comes with a support package.
use SE38 and display the source of RCKM_MR21F01
search with CTRL+F for the value 1238496
if you find it, then the note is certainly in your system.

"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,
Zbynek

Allow Posting to Previous Period - MMRV

Dear Friends,
We can open / close MM periods thru MMPV & see the currently open periods thru MMRV.
Now when we check current Period in MMRV, we see three periods:
Current period 07 2009 (October 2009)
Previous period 06 2008 (Septermber 2009)
Last period in prev.year 12 2008 (March 2009)
Here we have also Allowed posting to Previous Periods.
Thus current open period is 07 2009 (October 2009) & we can also post in Septermber 2009 (06 2009).
But the real problem is can we post some MM Documents in March 2009 (i.e. 12 2008)? Currently when we try system gives error - Posting only possible in 07 2009 & 06 2009.
I know it is SAP standard to allow only two MM months to be open at a given point of time.
Then what is the use of "Last period in prev.year 12 2008" in MMRV screen?
Waiting for early replies...
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta

In SAP system, you can only post stocks to one back period only by checking the Check Box in MMRV Transaction.
The entries you mentioned (Current Period, Previous Period, etc. are just information purpose only.
In certain cases, for ex: changing valuation Class etc., you have to check the stocks in Current, previous period and last period in previous year.
So you can get information of periods in MMRV Transactions.
For back posting to other periods (other than previous period), you should use Transaction MMPI.
