Cost price differences in subcontracting PO's invoicing

Hello,
Which transaction key (of automatic postings) will be used by the system if I create an invoice for a subcontacting PO for a bigger value (in price) than the receipted?
Is it allways the PRD (Cost (Price) differences)? If not, on what does it depend?
Thanks!

Hello,
Thanks for all your replies (even if they were not 100% helpfull).
My problem is exactly the following:
For subcontrating PO's we have a price condition which imputates a % of the total cost to an account which will be payed to the carrier (this works perfectly) for the freight.
The problem is that if we try to invoice this document (which is not against the vendor of the PO but against a vendor which is the carrier) for more value than the expected then the Price Difference is not charged against any account! (the warning of the price tollerance is showed but the system doesn't know were to charge this difference).
Please help!
Thanks!!

Price difference between sales order and invoice

Dear all,
I have a problem about prices. For example;
In VA01 net price of items: 2.954.241,93
while; in VF01, net price of items 2.954.241,92
Difference occurs because of batches in VF01.
In VA01 screen;
Material:100000939 ;                quantity:     1.000,000kg Unit price:146,62 total:146.620,00
But;
VF01 screen;
Material:100000939 ;               quantity:432     (Batch1)
                                                 quantity:366                 (Batch2)
                                                 quantity:162                 (Batch3)
So a small difference occurs.
What should I do to fix this issue?
Kind regards,

Hi
As per your given example :-
In VA01 screen;
Material:100000939 ; quantity: 1.000,000kg Unit price:146,62 total:146.620,00
But;
VF01 screen;
Material:100000939 ; quantity:432 (Batch1)
quantity:366 (Batch2)
quantity:162 (Batch3)
If you check you will find that system is calcultaing correctly.
In above case total material delivered is 960 Kg (432366162) and reate is 1000 per Kg. so total value is 140755.20. and if you calculate the price separately for each batches separately it will be 63339.84, 53662.92, and 23752.44 for the batches with quantity 432, 366, and 162 respectively. If you add these value it will be same as the value for 960Kg.
Now in any case if you are getting some difference in paise then you may use Price Condition Type DIFF or round off the Price Condition.

Price difference in the latest invoice document and the last change to

Hi gurus,
This is regarding the price difference of the latest invoice document price with respect to the price of last time the document was invoiced.Without using the customer exit or back-end developement. need info if this can be done on the front-end using the front-end tool bex designer using the CKF, RKF , Variables or conditions etc
say for instance the user wants to get the price differences with respect to the invoices for a certain period that is from 01/01/2008 to 06/30/2008( dynamic entry can be any range).
Once the user enters the range for the billing document date as 01/01/2008 to 06/30/2008 the query should return the report as
Sold-to(customer) Material, Bill doc date and the price difference. these are the four columns the users needs in the report.
now the bill-doc date will the latest invoice date for the sold-to & material, but the price difference will be the price of the last invoice date(for the sold-to , material) - the latest invoice date price.
Example. between 01/101/2008 - 06/30/2008
customer : 2765 , material : XAWE33636FD this particular customer-product had 3 invoices on 02/15/2008 , 04/18/2008 and 06/03/2008.
price on 02/15/2008 : $1.09
price on 04/18/2008: $1.87
price on 06/03/2008: $3.84
so the report should look like
customer material bill doc date price diff
2765 XAWE33636FD 06/03/2008 3.84- 1.87( latest invoice price - last invoice price)
Thanks
appreciate responses

Hi,
I think you will need at least some backend devlopment for this first and foremost being mapping the invoice date from souce to the Bill date.
Getting price difference is not an issue as much as tracking dates. I think you will need a counter to track the last invoice date which really needs ABAP coding
An exit would be much easier to have this functionality rather than to create RKF's and CKF's
I will update you in case any better idea strikes.
Good luck

PRD-Auto Post price differences to different price difference accounts

Dear all,
As I know, in Account Automatic Posting, the transaction key PRD is for Cost price Difference.
If I want to post price differences to different price difference accounts in the case of goods receipts for different cost in purchase orders, How can I configure it?
Example, in PO, there is 2 costs: Freight (F) and Insurance(I) are key in as Condition Type.
I would like to post price difference from F to account XXX, and price difference from I to account YYY.
Can I configure like this?
Thank you very much for your support!

Hello,
What is price difference.
Price differences arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples: goods receipts against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the standard pricedardpreis), goods issues in respect of which an external amount is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the PO price and the standard price).
Price difference in genereal will not trigger for the materials with price control V ( Moving average price) but however
Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference account
For you example, you have you are having PO with Freight (F) and Insurance(I), these are called pallned delivery costs, not Price difference,
so create two different condition type for Freight and insurance and assign two different G/L accounts for these condition types in account determination.
While posting system will hit perticular G/L acconut.

Price difference in PO-invoice to different Consumer Account

Hello,
I have the following situation:
Purchase Order: 10 units x 1000 USD = 10000     (Account assigned : u201CKu201D)
Goods Receipt: 10 units (x 1000 USD) = 10000    (valuated GR against consumer account)
PO u2013 invoice:     10 unitos x 1100 USD = 11000     (Invoice with price difference)
1) Upon GR u2013 Accounting document shows:
420021 (consumer account)     10000
220021 (GR/IR)          -10000
2) Upon entering the invoice, SAP standard makes the following account movements:
123456 (Vendor Account)       -11000
220021 (GR/IR) =             10000
420021 (Consumer Account)         1000       (Price difference) - Goes to the same consumer account !
I would like to know if I can configure in the invoice account determination a diferent consumer account for the price difference so that the acounting document will show:
123456 (Vendor Account)                           -11000
220021 (GR/IR) =             10000
420055 (Consumer Account)         1000       (Price difference) - a different consumer account !
Anyone did this before? How, is it standard config of OBYC or does one need a user-exit to accomplish this?
Thanks for any reply,
Aart

Hi guys,
Thanks for your replies.
I customized in the OBYC the price difference account PRD (for the Valuation Category of the material) even changed for the particular material the Price control in the Material Master from "V" to "S", but still, the difference upon receiving the invoice (MIRO) goes to the same Consumer Account!
Maybe the PRD account only works in Stock Postings. Im using POs account assigned (Cost Center).
Any clues?
Thanks,
Aart

Landed costs and price differences

I'm trying to figure out what PS does to adjust for total value discrepancies between an invoice voucher and associated PO. Say on my PO I have a line item with quantity of 2 and unit price of $10. Therefore total value is $20. When I create a voucher, that same line item is now 2x$11 = $22. I approve that voucher for $22. Now I run the Extract Landed Cost batch process. What does this process do to "compensate" for the difference between voucher and PO? Does it change the unit price of that item in inventory from $10 to $11?

Hi, yes you are right: Using this approach ML would use price differences for other batches and increase their value instead of posting them as loss like the initial cost.
The way around that would be to post some unplanned material good receipt for the loss production order, e.g. a material called scrap. In account determination you might make sure that these materials have own stock and price difference accounts that you could treat special in your balance sheet.
This would be shown in ML like a joint production between the planned product and the scrap material and multi-level variances would be distributed using following an apportionment structure from material master.
If it is difficult to maintain a reasonable apportionment structure you might implement BADI cost_split described in note 997264.
Also a good possibility would be to use a quantity-proportional split that can be derived from the ML quantity structure.
I could provide an example implementation of that.

PO Invoice price difference handling - accounting issues

Hi,
I am working for a distribution company that is selling right away the goods it bought. Therefore we first receive the goods before creating a PO and then receive the invoices from our suppliers later on.
Very often, there are differences between the PO and Invoices and as per SAP standard configuration, any price differences between PO and invoice are booked straight into cost of sales while quantity differences are kept on balance sheet level. However, we would like to be able to treat the price and quantity differences the same way (i.e. on balance sheet level and so not directly in Cost of Goods Sold).
Do you know if there is a way to do so?
Also, we would like to be able to distinguish the different type of errors that resulted into differences between the PO and invoice, and create different type of errors in order later to make different reports and analyses the causes. Can we do that with the SAP MM and FI/CO functions? How?
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Vic

Proceed with posting Invoice, System blocks the Invoice. You need to manually remove the block for further processing.

Any suggestions

Hi Mahendar,
Could you just update what is the message it is giving when you try to save the new invoice. (is it saying problem in accounting interface).
if not goto VF02 and release the billing document to accounting. Then let us know what is the message it is updating. based on the same we can analyse. or in the same VF02 look for the accounting message.
Best Regards

Invoice verification price difference

Hi,
During the point of invoice verification, we'd like to capture the
price difference of some items related to certain item category to a different account (Provision or Price Difference account) instead of posting to the Cost of Sales. Currently under the transaction OBYC, there seemed to be no such functionality. Does anyone know how to configure this? Must it be made through CMOD?
Cheers,
Gimmo

Dear Gimmo,
Following is my thought on this.
1) Since you want to post price diffrence is Price diffrence account , basic requirement is that in Material Master record price control to be standard i.e "S".
2) If you want to post this amount to seperate GL account , you can achieve this through automatic account determination using account modifier group for this transaction event key.
For ex.
Client C acct Trans Val Gp " AG " V class G/L a/c
400 INT GBB 001 " BSA" 3000 400000
Please check is it useful to you?

Price difference in Invoice

Hello Gurus,
Can anyone please suggest on the systems unknown behaviour given below.
We have scheduling agreement in currency GBP and Local currency EUR, when we post GR, it is getting posted perfectly to Inventory account to GR IR account. But when we post the Invoice system is crediting the same GRIR amount to vendor account which is right and debiting a huge unknown figure to Price difference account and the difference between these is getting credited to GRIR account. This is completely out of logic.
Exchange rates are perfectly ok. when we create a scheduling agreement with the same data it is working fine. now I am now able to find out where the problem is can anyone suggest on this.
Thank you,
Srinivas

Check the standard cost of the material, looks like something is terribly wrong like it is per 1 instead of per 1000 or something like that which might explain the huge posting you see to the price difference account during invoicing. I am sure it will be there in the GR accounting document too..

Transaction Key for freight price differences while invoicing?

Hi all,
Which is the transaction key (of the OBYC) in case of freight price differences while invoicing?
I mean, in case of price differences of the below entry, which is the transaction key for those differences?
Purchasing freight account     FRE
Thanks!

Hi,
I will explain how accounts will hit for the Freight.
1)
At the time of MIGO Inventory account debit
                              Freight Inward account Credit.
At the time of Invoice Vendor account Credit
                                  Freight Inward account Debit.
2)
If u r not done MIGO for Freight(Means u r not included Freight cost at the time MIGO in PO) so at the time of Invoice
                           Vendor account Credit
                           Inventory account debit
2A)If at the time of Invoice verification Material not available in the stock that time it will hit
Vendor account Credit
Price difference Account debit
Thanks,

Sales invoice Price difference

Hi gurus,
Please help me to solve this scenario.
I sale 10 units material for 100 each price to my customer.
But due to some problem if he returns my material. When we Replace the material there is a Price Difference.
Now we are using Moving Average Price.
now I want to sale that material again for 90 each price that will be less than price 100.
The main issue is: I can not change the (financial postings)invoice price when I replace the goods, this is legal requirement here
How would I handle this price difference.
Please help.
Regards,
George

Hi George,
You can maintain different pricing procedure for returns and assign that Pricing procedure in the transaction OVKK with the combination of Sales Area + return Document pricing procedure+Custpmer pricing procedure.
Maintain condition records for the condition types through VK11
I hope It will solve your problem.

Distribution of Price difference value to Other Cost Objects in Hierarchy

Hi,
I have a unique scenario for one of my client.
Here we are using Cost Object Hierarchy for Cost Object Controlling. We have Two COH for Billets and Wire Rods.
The Input for Billets production are Raw Materials and Input for Wire Rod Production are the Billets.
Each Billet grade is consumed for the Specific Wire Rod Grade.
At the end of the Month we do the settlement and we get the Price difference value of the Billets. We can also know the Per unit Price difference value.
Now we want to send this Price difference per unit value of the Billets to the Wire Rod Production orders according to the quanity of Billets consumed.
We are not using ML.
I am not getting any idea how to Proceed for thsi scenario.
Any suggestion please.
Regards
Kami

Hi
W/o ML, you cant achieve this...
if your Prod process is farily stable and qty variances are not much i.e. the only major reason for variances are the prices - Then you can adopt this workaround
