Distribute moving average or standard price via ALE/IDoc

Dear experts,
do you see any way to distribute the moving average price via ALE? It is inside the material master IDoc but it won't update in the receiving system.
We need it for a decentral WM so that people can see the valuation of the material when they do inventory counting (to judge differences in LX22).
Any idea how to unlock the material master for update?
Gunter

Dear Amit,
yes - I understand how the system calculates the MAP. However, the receiving system is a SAP WMS - In WM there is no inventory management nor FI/CO. The valuation would always be zero. So I'm interested how can I update it via ALE?
It works for the first time if I have no valuation (accounting) view in the material and I send an IDoc with the view definition segment and a value for VERPR. But updating isn't possible.

Moving average and standard price both maintained

Hi,
I have maintained both moving average price and standard price in material master, price control is V
is there any impact of standard price any where in the system.
Regards,
Ali

Hi,
The system considers only the price maintained in price control V or S.So Which ever price is maintained it will consider only that. As an example if you maintain price control as S and give standard price, So when you do GR against PO with different prices, You can see that system even calculates moving avg price for statistical purpose and same can be seen in material master. For for the transaction purpose only standard price will be considered.

Show both Moving Average and Standard Price of an item in Report Composer

Hello
I do follow all my items at standard price. But i wish to get on the same report both the standard price and the moving average price.
How can i do so :
1 - either by a default report
2 - Or by using report composer
3 - By using a SQL Query
Thanks
Stéphane

Thanks but is there a way to get both data on the same report ?
The solution you gave me allows me only to output two different reports....I don't mind working with a vlookup from time to time but on a daily basis, this is a bit laborious
Thanks for your continuous support

Shifting from Moving average to standard price

Hi all
Presently we are following for all our Inhouse produced materials with Moving average price,we want to change all the materials to Standard price,is it possible to change & if in case if stock is there we will not be able to change,Shall we have to create New material codes with price control S.
whats the best solution
Thanks
Sandeep patil.

Dear,
ML is meterial ledger.
It is used in following cases.
- You have mutliple currencies and to see the stock in differnt currancies.
- You want to see the variances to be carried to different levels of BOM and see the periodic price of the product even though the price control is S.
Hence system will count all the variances and during ML closing steps calculate the variances and send to the higher level of BOM after chaning the periodic price of that raw materil. Hence at higest product level you will come to know exact production cost as well as level by level subassembly cost.
With this cost you can revaluate the material so that the S price will change to this periodic price.

Moving average price/standard price via iDoc

Hi,
I would like to distribute moving average price and standard price on price change (price changed via transaction event or MR21) to external system.
Is there a way to accomplish iDoc (MATMAS) triggering on price change?
Any idea on how to track changes?
Searching through forums I found that MATMAS will not trigger on MAP change via transactional event, GR, GI...
Thnx

Change costing method from Moving Average to Standard costing

Hi Expert
I need to find out the prerequisites for changing the valuation method of an item from Moving average to Standard costing.
(In the forums i found a note which discusses the change of costing method from FIFO to Moving average.)
It would be greatly appreciated if i can get a reply ASAP
Thank you
Regards
Apsara

Hi Son
Let me rephrase my previous question as i have asked it incorrectly.
Step 1. Make all quantities of the stock zero and also close all Open PO, SO etc
Step 2. change the inventory valuation method
Step 3. Enter new stock prices for the standard cost through stock revaluation. My question is can this be (step 3) done through DTW
Thank you
Kind Regards

Is it possible to change the costing from moving average to standard??

hey all,
i wana know is it possible to change the costing from moving average to standard or vice-versa in the item master??
cheers

Hi Satish
Please look at the documentation from SAP for using this function. I just looked on my drive and can't find the document I used to have for this.
Just setting quantities to zero will not work as all open P/O, S/O, etc must also be closed before you can run the Inventory Valuation Method function. This is all detailed in the document.
I have done this successfully before for a client with over 4000 items, so I have been through the process. Please let me know if you need assistance.
Kind regards

Payroll Payment via ALE/IDOC

Hello Everyone,
We currently run payroll and process ACH payment information via RFFOUS_T. The information is sent directly to the bank. We have a new request which will require HR Payroll payment information to be sent from our SAP system to another SAP system via ALE/IDOC. Does anyone have any documentation which offers an explanation as to how Payroll processes payment information ALE/IDOC.
I have found a few references to PC00_M08_CDTA, RFFOEDI1, type PEXR2002/PEXR2003 etc, but nothing that brings it all together. The process seems to be fairly standard and should be easy to implement (RFC, partner profile, etc). I am ultimately looking for a best practices or some other document which brings everything together and indicates which transactions the user must execute.
Thank you for your help.
Scott

Hi,

For sending IDOC for Purchase order you will use idoc

Basic Type : ORDERS05
Create one RFC Destination in SM59 and give that entry in Port in WE21.
Create Partner profile in WE20 and Port for receiver system in WE21.
Use your port in Partner profile in WE20.
In Partner Profile create one entry for Message type ORDERS as Outbound.
In your tcode when you are creating Purchase order set output message in your header condition for Outbound to send that purchase order to that Partner Profile.

Moving average and standard cost

Hi All,
I purchase raw material and trading item. assuming that my raw material is based on standard cost and trading item based on moving average.
1) if both item have no more inventory, the difference price between migo and miro will charge to price difference?
2) if raw material which base on standard cost still have inventory, may i know if there is a variance for migo and miro, the difference will go to where? if inventorise then what would happen to the standard cost.
3) if trading item which base on moving average still have inventory, the variance (between migo and miro) will be added to moving average. right?
4) for raw material which base on standard cost, may i know if freight cost, custom duty and some other miscellaneous cost need to add in, how possible it can add to the standard cost?
5) for trading item which base on moving average, may i know if freight cost, custom duty and some other miscellaneous cost also will be added in moving average price?
thanks

Hi,
1) if both item have no more inventory, the difference price between migo and miro will charge to price difference?
Yes, this is correct as per Accounting Standards
2) if raw material which base on standard cost still have inventory, may i know if there is a variance for migo and miro, the difference will go to where? if inventorise then what would happen to the standard cost.
Any difference between the Standard Price in Material Master and Purchase Value (PO Price) will debit or credit the Price Difference A/c no matter whether stock exits or not.
If Material Standard Price = 100 INR
And PO Price is = 120 INR
During MIGO;
Stock Account - Dr - 100 INR
Price Difference A/c - Dr - 20 INR
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr - 120 INR
3) if trading item which base on moving average still have inventory, the variance (between migo and miro) will be added to moving average. right?
Yes, it will debit or credit Stock Account and will update MAP of Material accordingly if enough Stock coverage is there.
4) for raw material which base on standard cost, may i know if freight cost, custom duty and some other miscellaneous cost need to add in, how possible it can add to the standard cost?
No, all will get posted to Price Difference Account as following;
If Material Standard Price = 100 INR
And PO Price is = 120 INR and Freight = 10 INR
During MIGO;
Stock Account - Dr - 100 INR
Price Difference A/c - Dr - 20 INR
GR/IR Clearing A/c - Cr - 120 INR
Price Difference A/c - Dr - 10 INR
Freight Clearing A/c - Cr - 10 INR
5) for trading item which base on moving average, may i know if freight cost, custom duty and some other miscellaneous cost also will be added in moving average price?
Yes, it will get added to stock and will update MAP accordingly if enough Stock coverage is there.

are available in the enterprise extension.
Hope this can help

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)

Standard vs Moving Average Price

Dear SAP Gurus
Can anybody pls explain the significance of Moving avg and Standard price of Material.
Thanks & Regards
Shalini

The standard price or moving average price in material master is used to determine the value of the inventory.
Standard price are used for products that do not fluctuate frequently. It is mainly used for FG or semi finished products.
Moving average price are used mainly for raw materials that are purchased externally. The advantage of using moving average price for raw materials is that the inventory costs will always reflect the current market price.
If the material is valued at a standard price,
the difference between the purchase order price and the standard price will go to a price difference account.
If the material is valued at a moving average price, the difference between the purchase order price and
the moving average price will NOT go to a price difference account. The moving average price will simply be adjusted.

Material Standard Price update.

I've been trying to update a material standard price via BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA or MY_MATERIAL_PRICE_UPDATE, with no success.
I've followed the example code give in the thread /message/9187089#9187089 [original link is broken].
Has anyone gotten this to work?

Sure.
Costing Type (OKKI) : 01 Standard Cost estimate (material), in this Price update: Standard price & Valuation View: Legal valuation.
Valuation variant components:
001: Planned valuation Materials: priority 1. Price frm purchasing info records, 2. Valuation price according to price control in material master 3.Valuation price with user Exit.
007: Production Order Actual: priority 1. Valuation price according to price control in material master.

Update avg/standard price item after import

When i import the standard price with DTW and update the initial quantities in stock, i can't update the standard price again...When i don't import the initial quantities, i can change that a lot of times...
How can i import the standard price, after update the initial quantities with DTW?

Marcio,
The Standard Price or Cost is used to calculate your inventory Value when performing Initial Stock Import.
Once the Item has a transaction and has stock the cost cannot be changed.
If you want to change the Cost, then you will need tp perform Inventory Revaluation. This function enables you to revaluate inventory values by changing the average or standard price of an item and calculating the total value of all the stock.
Access it from Inventory > Inventory Transactions > Inventory Revaluation
Let me know what your real need is on the busiess front and I could guide you accordingly
