Frozen price in material ledger

Dear all,
I need to have some informations about frozen price functionality in material ledger.
In particular:
- what is frozen price?
- where in customizing it is set?
- what is the system behavior using frozen price during production order confirmation?.
Kind regards
Flavia Borselli

Hi
I suspect standard price can only be saved once for any period. You can make use of the other price fields in the material master to store different prices
Thank You,

    Hi Bhaskar ,
    At the time of GR .. in standard costing .. the accounting entries are
    Inventory   -
    Dr  100  ( Std Price)
    Price Diff         -
    Dr      10
    GR/IR -
    Cr 110 ( Invoice Price)
    At the time of IR .. the entry is
    Gr/IR -
    Dr   110
    Vendor -
    Cr 110 .
    Hence , the price difference is taken in accounting and in ML run in the month GR happens....................
    Now , how ML run post the amounts in GL and account determination logic.. refer OSS Note : 908737 - Post Closing in Material Ledger

  • Standard Price in Material Ledger

    Dear Gurus,
    On one hand we need to update on finished products (manufactured) a standard cost estimate (CK11N or CK40N) in order to analyse variances on the corresponding production orders (during period en closing with KKS2 transaction), on another hand, because we are implementing material ledger component, we would like to update the standard price of these finished products with the periodic unit price (PUP) with CKME transaction.
    The problem is that the system returns an error when we try to release the price with the PUP,
    CKPRCH "A current or future standard price exists for material &".
    Could you help me ? Thank you very much

  • Historical moving average price in material ledger

    Hi SAPGURUS,
    Every Month when doing the Month-end closing,  system re-calculate the moving average cost   in material ledger . Is there a way to get this information for all plant, all model and download to the EXCEL.
    Could you please tell if we can the information from any database table.
    Thanks and regards,
    Priyajit

    Hi,
    Look at the following table data MLCRP for price changes.  MLCR is the basic material ledger table.  There are other ML tables that you may need to refer to: MLCRF and MLPPF.
    Cheers.

  • Low market price using Material Ledger for FG

    Hi dear Experts,
    We are using Material ledger for valuating 1 FG material with out quantity structure and its goning well but in the opening of a new plant after the actual costing calculation with have to adjust the actual cost to the low market price if this is low than actual cost of the month, do you know which steps I have to follow to make this happen I read something about parallel valuations and determination of lowest cost but how I can Carryout this to inventory valuation?
    Regards

    Hi Ganesh thanks,
    the market priceI have to maintain on one of the prices available in the material master, this is necessary in addition to any configuration to use  the mrn0?
    and just a doubt this could re-valuate the inventory for the closing period? and the difference as I read its posted to the COGS account, on the  next period or in the  closing one?
    thanks a lot
    regards

  • Material ledger:Dynamic Release of Planned Prices

    Dear all,
    Would anyone tell me how to test the 'Dynamic Release of Planned Prices '  in material  ledger step by step? SAP said that system can change the price during the first goods movment in next period, but I did not know how to test it.
    rgds,
    Ben

    If the 'dynamic price release' is active for the corresponding plant   
    in Material Ledger (you may check that in transaction CKM9), the system
    releases planed future price at first goods movement at beginning of the
    period (materials movements transactions).                                                                
    The standard price can be released by different ways. It can be changed
    with transactions CK24, CK40N, CKME and with a dynamic price release   
    with the first posting in the new period.                              
    There are the following prerequisites for the successful release of     
    standard prices:
    1.  The current MM period has to correspond to the current FI period. If
        the MM period is already moved before attaining the FI period, no   
        prices can be released for the new period until the first date of   
        the new FI period is reached. However, Modification note 551956     
        permits a dynamic price release in such cases.                                                                               
    *According to the fiscal year variant from the system or user date  
    2.  The period for which the cost estimate was created and flagged has  
        to correspond to the current MM period or the valid-from date of    
        future prices from the accounting must have been reached.                                                                               
    3.  In the release period, a release of a running cost estimate cannot  
        yet occur.       
    4.  Provided that a future price is supposed to be released from the    
        accounting, but a flagged, released or passed cost estimate is      
        anchored on the cost estimate view of the material master, you      
        either have to undo these anchors (REDO or delete in Transaction    
        CKR1) or you have to override message CKPRCH025 or M8155. When you  
        override the message the program might issue incorrect values in the
        variance calculation and in the CO-PA since the standard price may  
        no longer correspond to the current planned price.                                                                               
    5.  Provided that the Material Ledger (ML) is active, the period status 
        has to permit the release. In this case, note that a release cannot 
        occur after the end of the prior period (Exception: Late release by 
        means of MR21).                                                                               
    6.   Provided that you want to use the dynamic release, note     that it
        is only possible in connection with goods movements, but NOT with   
        invoice receipts (Error message M8394) or by means of direct posting
        to the material or by means of the CLOSING ENTRY of the Material    
        Ledger (no message).

  • Material Ledger Multiple Currency

    Hello,
    We have  a problem with ML - multiple currency.
    I am working in a retail company and they dont have product costing. they are using material ledger only for multiple currency.
    but they never run ckmlcp. $ is company code currency and EUR is group.
    here is the problem, we bought something for 15 $ (10 EUR) and after sometime the currency rate changes and when we tried to sell or transfer the material for 15 $ this time system calculates the euro side as 11 EUR. we dont have a problem with $ but our COPA reports with EUR shows this 1 EUR as loss or revenue ?
    to make it short
    buy for    15 $ (=10 EUR)
    sell for   15 $ (= 11 EUR) ---> 1 EUR stays and shown as loss or revenue in COPA reports with EUR ???
    i believe if we run ckmlcp system revaluates the euro side with the new currency rate but i am not sure.
    One more question  can we run ckmlcp if we dont have product costing ???
    thank you..

    Hi,
    I was confused at first. The multi-currency capabilities are suited to keep the historic curency information and make material valuation in parallel currencies independent from the current exchange rate
    So in your example:
    buy for 15 $ (=10 EUR)          --> 10 EUR wil become the material valuation
    sell for 15 $ (= 11 EUR)       --> stock value will be reduced by 10 EUR (not 11 as would the current exchange rate suggest)
    But you are right for the sales price ori the CO-PA revenue in EUR. This will still use the current exchange rate and would lead to the 1 EUR profit because you have the material on stock valuated with 10 EUR but sell it with 11 EUR price.
    Material ledger would not prevent the profit/loss and also not counter-post it, even if you used CKMLCP. The actual price would even after ML closing be 10 EUR and no revaluation of consumption would be necessary. The sales prices is an 'external' decision and normally not determined by material valuation, therfore the sales price will not be adapted by material ledger calculations.
    Sorry, I have no proposal how to get rid of that. Search ratther in CO-PA currency conversion than in ML.
    best regards,

  • MR11- The price for material && will be negative - Material Ledger Active

    Hi All,
    The material ledger is active and user is getting error message "The price for material && will be negative" while doing MR11. I found the below SAP Notes:
    sapnote_0000010757_FAQ MR11, clear GRIR clearing account
    sapnote_0000174684_Procedure for error C+121C+131, price
    sapnote_0000320941_Posting in spite of negative price
    sapnote_0000790426_MR11 Functionality
    I found SAP Note: 174684_Procedure for error C+121C+131, price , but it seems to give a temporary solution of changing the price using MR21 / MR22. The error has become very frequent.
    I appreciate, if someone can help me know the pros and cons of using MR21/MR22 transaction when material ledger is active, because I am not able to figure out where will the MR21 / MR22 transaction have impacts in MM and CO?
    Is there anyway to do away with the recurrence of Error message permanently?
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Sagar K.

    Hi:
    This error occurs when PO price does not match with Moving average price in Material price.
    First check the price in PO and in Moving average price in Material Master. If the Moving average price is less than PO, go the T.code MR21 to change the moving average price to PO Price.
    Also check T.code MRBR - it will show why the invoice is blocked.
    Please let me know if you need more information.
    Assign points if useful.

  • Material ledger (ML) price analysis,  LACCS & CKMLLA return err. CKMLLA001

    Dear colleagues,
    We're experiencing problems analysing actual cost component split on material level after Material Ledger closing and need some help.
    OSS-note 872421 "Cost component split display for activity types" comes with two transactions for the purpose of analysing prices. But both transactions LACCS & CKMLLA don't work in our system, returning error message "Header not found: message № CKMLLA001" after trying to view ML prices (F5) or get Price report from LACCS as well as on Price report (F8) in CKMLLA.
    There's no further info available on message CKMLLA001. Did anyone here happened to get this message? What could it mean, what should we check?
    We need for analysing ML prices because the values in cost components split (according to CKM3, Itemization) differ greatly from what was expected on the basis of price analysis in Cost Center accounting (e.g. S_ALR_87013611).
    OSS-note note 880217 "Cost component split and price do not match" is implemented in our system, as well as recommendations from the corresponding note 1090144 "Preventing rounding errors in prices" are taken into account. For activity prices number of significant digits is set to 10, "no optimization" not selected. Though we don't get any warnings # 204: "Split and price of cost elem./activity type &1/&2 not consistent" during multi-level price determination, the totals are close to equal in ML costing compared to CC costing.

  • Huge price variance in Material Ledger

    Dear Gurus,
    In our case the standard cost of one Finished goods is released with the price of Rs.10 but later on the cost of one of the Raw material is changed to Rs.1200.  Without releasing the standard cost (as it cannot be released for more than once in a period) of the Finished Goods,  we have performed Mock month end closing for Material Ledger.
    Now due to the difference in raw material cost huge variance (Rs.12000-10) is lying as unallocated variance.
    Please advise the way out as to how to correct the same at the earliest.
    Regards
    Rajya Lakshmi

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply but in case of MR21 and MR22 also the variance will be collected on price difference account only and needs to be allocated back to the Finished Goods. 
    Against which the PRD should be knocked off is the question and how to pass the JV.
    Please Advise.
