Costing Issue-Previous Price changes in Accounting 1 tab in Material Master

Hi SAP Experts,
Our Client has an issue with "previous price" field under the "Accounting 1" tab in Mateial master .The issue is that client never did costing to this material XXXXXXwith plant XXXX. But system is showing value in the "previous price" field. We have checked whether previious cost estimate exists. There was no previous cost estimate and still the system updated "previous price" field.
Can anyone let me know in which cases the system updates "Previous Price" field in Material Master ?
Your help is highly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
K.S.K

Hi
May be this material was created with reference to the same material in other plant or with ref to some other material or may be costing run was deleted from CKR1

Error with Valuation Category in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master

Dear All,
I have created plant and also activated the "Split Activation" for that plant through SPRO-MM-Valuation & A/c Assignment ---Split valuation.
But when i Extend the material form another plant the "Valuation Category" field in Accounting 1 Tab of Material Master becomes INACTIVE (i.e. it becomes gray). Where as for the plant (from which i am copying the material) the same field is ACTIVE.
Please suggest me what might be the error.
I have checked the setting for both the plants i.e. in which it is working and the other where it is not working. The settings are same.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Shailendra
If this is for a single material.
I hope u r using MM01 only by giving reference of existing mat., in this case, at this stage only you have to maintain Valuation Category.
Once the material is created, the field will become gray.
This is what I know. If still, there is any way to make this field active, if u come to know, please let me know too.

Price S and prive V in material master

Hi,
most customers ask why moving average price and standard price must be set in material master and why I cannot take as V or S price the price my vendor apply when he sells me products and why are necessary the above price ?
Regards

Hi
In the standard price procedure (price control u201CSu201D), the system carries out all stock postings at a price defined in the material master. Variances are posted to price difference accounts.
In the moving average price procedure (price control u201CVu201D), the system valuates goods receipts with the purchase order price and goods issues with the current moving average price. The system automatically calculates the latter upon every goods movement by dividing the total value by the total stock quantity. Differences between the purchase order price and the invoice are posted directly to the relevant stock account if there is sufficient stock coverage.
Characteristic of Price Control u201CSu201D:
u2022     All stock postings are made at a standard price.
u2022     The system posts all differences from the standard price to an account u201CExpense/Revenue from price differenceu201D.
u2022     Exact values are available for cost accounting / controlling purposes (All goods issues, such as issues to a production order, are valuated at the same standard price. This allows better analysis of the costs of production orders).
u2022     In the accounting view, we can display differences between the delivered price and the standard price.
u2022     We can change material prices if required (generally at the end of period). This causes the system to revaluate the total stock for a valuation area.
Posting at Standard Price.
A receipt posted to a stock account is generally posted at the standard price. Differences between the order price and the standard price are posted to an u201CExpenses/revenue from price differencesu201D account (2).
Differences between the invoice price and the order price are posted to an u201CExpenses/revenue from price differencesu201D account (3).
The moving average price is also recorded in the material master when the material is valuated at a standard price. It indicates the extent to which the standard price differs from the delivered price.
Characteristic of Price Control u201CVu201D.
u2022     Receipts are valuated at their actual price (as per purchase order, invoices,...)
u2022     The system modifies the price in the material in the material master according to the delivered price.
u2022     Issues are generally valuated at the current material price.
u2022     The data used for cost accounting / controlling purposes therefore contains price fluctuations.
u2022     Only in exceptional circumstances does the system post at a difference to the u201CExpenses/Revenues from price differencesu201D account (The system makes a posting to an u201CExpenses/revenue from price differencesu201D account for a material valuated at a moving average price only in the case of a debit or credit when the stock coverage in the company code is smaller than the quantity to be debited or credited, e.g.: When we reverse an invoice, the account movements made when the invoice was posted cannot always simply be reversed. For example, if there was sufficient stock coverage when we posted an invoice with a price variance for a material with moving average price, but when we reverse the invoice, there is insufficient stock coverage, the R/3 System posts the price difference in the credit memo to a price difference account, although the price variance was debited to the stock account when we posted the invoice)
u2022     We can change material prices if required (generally at the end of period). This causes the system to revaluate the total stock for a valuation area.
Postings at Moving Average Price.
Receipts to the stock account are posted with the value Quantity x Order price. The moving average price is recalculated after every transaction and is therefore adjusted in line with delivered prices (2)/(4).
Differences between the order price and the invoice price are debited to the stock account, as the invoiced quantity is in stock (3).
The difference between the order price and the invoice price is only posted for the 50 pieces in stock. For the remaining 50 pieces that are not in stock, the difference between the order price and the invoice price is posted to an u201CExpenses/revenue from price differencesu201D account (6).

Update info record when changing units of measure in material master

Hello,
is there any possibility for an automatic change of info record when changing conversion factors in the material master ?
We have 3 units of measure in our material master: the base unit and 2 alternative units. The first alternative unit is the order unit and the second alternative unit is the order price unit. So in our purchase info records we maintain an order unit, which differs from the base unit and we also maintain an order price unit, which differs from the base unit and the order unit.
If we now change the conversion factors between the units in the material master, we would like to get an automatic change of the converions in the info record (to order unit and order price unit), which have the same previous conversions.
For IS R it seems to be implemented (see OSS-Note 975954).
Is there any solution for a "normal" industry system ?
Thanks for answering
Edited by: Britta Heinsen on Jul 23, 2009 1:52 PM

I don't think such an auto update is available. Infact I came to know that such an update is available in IS-R after reading your query.
Obviously you an always create a workflow based enhancement that can synchronize the Info-records and material master changes or sort of enhancement which regularly reads the material master change history for such changes and trigger a synchronization by executing change Info-record automatically.

Foreign Trade Import/Export Tab in Material Master of SAP R/3

Hi
What is the use of Foreign Trade Import/Export Tab in material master of SAP R/3

Hi Akhil ..
Sounds like you need to enrol for the SAP Foreign Trade training course!
The tab holds various attributes for determining Foreign Trade data - for example the Customs classification and Country of Origin. Those data are used to determine and/or populate fields in the Foreign Trade data when processing MM and SD documents.
Some, but not all, of the fields in that tab become redundant if GTS is in use.
If you have more specific questions in this area, it might be easier to give better explanations.

Dave

Hi,
How can I change Special Procurement in the material master? Right now Special procurement field is greyed out and would not allow me to change it?
Sincerely,

Have you used any MRP profile.
If so in transaction MMD2 for MRP profile, choose the special procurement type field & change the selection from display mode.
Now in transaction mm02 the spl procurement field can be entered/changed.

I have already checked all the open items.....
No sale order. No entry in table MSEG.
Only one PO without GR.....So that should not make any difference.

Period change is not appearing in accounting view of material master

Hello SAP lovers
As we know once we close the period with MMPV, Latest perion appeared in material master --> Accounting view.
Now period open is March 2007 for a company code. It is expected that material created in all the plants assigned to same company code should display latest period in accounting view. This is happening for all thousands of material in system but i found 1 material which is displaying the period as Nov 2006.
I have doubled check that this material is created for the same plant which is assgned to the company code for which Mar2007 is open....
Anybody ......Any clue......

Changing Base Unit Of Measure (Material Master)

Hi
1. How to check this? (Any successful changes in material master only took place when there is no open document from SD, PP, MM & FI for that material. )
2. Base unit of measurement cannot be changed. The reason being material movement history is there in table - MSEG mainly which otherwise create inconsistency in reporting. -
Is this line applicable for current period or previous period in current year or previous period previous year???
3. There are no existing purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material. -
is this means open / pending purchase orders or the the PO's created in system with respect to material where the GR and IR is already done
4. You can change the base unit of measure if there is no stock of the material during current and previous period----
is this means the term " previous preiod" is previous period in the current finacial year   or its applicable for the previous preiod in previous financial year
5. Post the stock in the previous period to the current period - -
how can we do this???
Vijay

See this OSS note : especially the last sentence:
From OSS note 138767
Within the material master record maintenance, you want to change the base unit of measure (base unit). During the change, the system performs extensive checks in order to avoid inconsistencies in the applications which use the material master.
In particular, the following checks are performed:
The base unit must not be defined as an alternative unit of measure for the material
No International Article Number must be assigned to the base unit
No proportion/product units must be defined for the material
No configurable material must be assigned
The material must not be used as a configurable material
Stock must neither exist for the previous period nor for the current period
No physical inventory must be active
No reservations or dependent requirements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
No planned orders must exist
No purchase requisitions, purchase orders or scheduling agreements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
No WM transfer requirements, no WM quants or no WM posting change notices must exist
The material must not be a bill of material
The material must not be contained in a bill of material
The material must not be used as a production resource/tool
The material must not be used in task lists
No standard cost estimate must exist for the current or future period
No production orders must exist
No planned independent requirements must exist
No run schedule headers must exist
If the base unit has dimensions, no serial number profile must be assigned
No sales and distribution documents must exist which have status Not processed or Partially processed.
Solution
If necessary, all reasons mentioned above must be eliminated by archiving the objects listed
1) SAP checks this for you. A new button will appear in MM02 and after you click this button to check the error log, you will see which documents exist.
2) I have not seen that an existing movement will restrict the change of a BUoM.
3) No purchase requisitions, purchase orders or scheduling agreements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
       it is not caring about GR done or IR done. it telling you that the deletion indicator has to be active. As a deletion indicator can be reset easily, you probably have to archive the documents
4) the previous period is the period before the current period.
   today we have February, hence the previous period is January.
5) first make sure your current stock is higher than the stock of the previous period. if it is lower, then you have to create inventory in current period first e.g. with 202 movement with current date.
Then you issue the previous period stock with 201 movement and previous period date (make sure periods are open in OB52 and MMRV allows posting to previous period).
Finally you issue the left stock in the current period with 201 and current date.
Now previous period and current period stock is zero. After the change of the base unit you have to get the stock back into the system
