Automatic creation of a Material Ledger document

Hi,
I need to automatically create a Material Ledger document with reference to a material and split valuation code, there are BAPI or Function that may I use?
Thanks
Gianmario Belotti

Hi,
First of all you should maintain transaction OMS2 to allow quantity & value update for the material type & valuation area
otherwise it is not relevant for material ledger.
Regarding how you have to activate the split valuation for a material, please keep in mind the following:
if no valuation category has been assigned to a material (MBEW-BWTTY is blank), and you wish to assign multiple valuation
categories (split valuation) to this material, then the material must not have linked documents and the stock must be zero for both
the current and previous periods.
If you make an attempt to assign a valuation category for this material, error message M3194 will be raised.
Please check the attached note 30656 concerning limitations associated with changing the valuation category.
Please also check note 155874, which outlines what must be performed in order to change the valuation category.

Waman

Material ledger Tables

Dear All,
Issue: Not able to post Good receipt due to the error that material does not exit.
Background: we have activated user exit in material master for material type ZROH and assigned a internal number range to it in MMNR. this user exit will append the material group mentioned during master creation in the internal code generated by system.
example PPMM is the material group and the internal code generated by system is 122222 so when we save the material in mm01 our material code is PPMM122222.
we are trying to do GR by 501 and now the material ledger function module is truncating PPMM from the material code and its trying to post document with 1222222. which then goes into error that material does not exist.
Analysis: I have checked in the MARA/MARC the material code is PPMM1222222. but i guess in some table whcih is relevant for material ledger system has stored internal material number 1222222.
So I am looking for tables or solution for this isssue

Hi Expert,
Please refer the SAP Standard Material Ledger Tables:
The following tables contain data that can appear in the material ledger documents:
Table - MLHD - Material Ledger Document: Header
Table - MLIT- Material Ledger Document: Items

Business Area - Material Ledger

Hello,
Analyzing some material ledger documents (type ML) on a determined g/l account (fbl3n), I noticed some postings for only one specific material that Business Area code did not appear.
I guess it´s something related to that material. Where should I investigate ?

Hello,
I have found the root cause of this issue. The material has division 30 on master data(MARA-SPART) .
In SPRO I went to Enterprise Structure -> Assignment -> Sales and Dist. -> Business Area Account Assignment -> Assign Business Area to Plant And Division and I could notice that this division is not configured to show business area.

I need to activated material ledger with different exchange rates. I never done any material ledger config. Can anyone help me regarding the configuration steps from material ledger with different exchange rates.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lea

Hello
Must :Activate Valuation Areas for Material
> Ledger
yes
> Assign Currency Types to Material Ledger Type
yes, just check 'use currencies from FI'
> Assign Material Ledger Types to Valuation Area
yes, but by default 000 is already assigned and you can leave that
> Maintain Number Ranges for Material Ledger Documents
you can omit and work with the default settings
> Assign Material Update Structure to a Valuation Area
not necessary
> Not required/not activating:
> Configure Dynamic Price Changes
> Define Movement Type Groups of Material Ledger

Material ledger accounts range

Dear Experts
can you please explain ,
1]What is " Material ledger accounts Range " were it is created ,
2] what is its use
3]How to run material ledger
regards
bhaskar

Hi,
Material Ledger is created to follow the transaction posted through various movement types and check for any price changes.
The configuration for Material Ledger is done in Controlling > Product Cost Controlling > Actual Costing/material ledger.
The number ranges for material documents are based on the nature of transactions and transaction groups.
You have to create the Material ledger documents under document type ML and for passing on the entries to accounting
use document type 47. Material price valuation is a periodic activity done through CKMF and CKMH. You have the
analysis of the material prices through CKM3.

Error in Activating Material ledger

Hi experts,
I'm trying to activate the material ledger first time to the plant. Then an error is displaying. The error is
The value "001" was entered in the field "LFDNR"
This is not possible because it is a numeric field where only numbers may be entered.The length of the field is 000005.
Enter only numeric vallues in this field.
psl do favour to me.
Thanks
Reddy.P.S

Hi ,
Have you completed the following configuration :
1     Assign Currency Types to Material Ledger Type [OMX2]
2     Assign Material Ledger Types to Valuation Area [OMX3]
3     Maintain Number Ranges for Material Ledger Documents [OMX4]
4     Configure Dynamic Price Changes [OMX5]
5     Reasons for Price Changes
6     Define Movement Type Groups of Material Ledger [OMX7]
7     Assign Movement Type Groups of Material Ledger [OMX0]
8     Define Material Update Structure [OMX9]
9     Assign Material Update Structure to a Valuation Area [OMX8]
10     Activate Actual Cost Component Split [SPRO]
11     Activate Distribution of Usage Variances [SPRO]
For OMX1 .. what price determination you are using . Are you using "3" .
If you already have some other plant active , compare the configurations using transaction CKM9.
Once all configurations are completed , then only use CKMSTART.

Implemanting Material ledger

Regarding material ledger
Dear FI guys,
I have a issue on material ledger. We are going for a upgrade from 4.6 C to ECC 6.0 that time client asking us to go with material ledger implementation also is there any impact with this up on upgrade and can you help me where and all integration will come in the material ledger Could you please give me any docs on material ledger please.
Thanks & Regards
Mastan Rao

Dear Mastan rao,
Material ledger data is valuation and control data for a material (with a particular valuation type, if applicable) in a plant for a particular posting period. Material ledger data also contains data for movements that are relevant to the valuation of the material. This data is collected in the material ledger as it is entered in the system.
Use: Material ledger data forms the basis of actual costing and is used to manage valuation prices in multiple currencies and valuations. Consequently, material ledger data supplements the material master record. In addition, material ledger data can refer to materials that are part of sales order stock and project stock.
Structure: The most important information in material ledger data is:
Valuation price, inventory quantity, and inventory value in up to three currencies and/or valuations
Indicator for price determination (as in the material master record)
Control of the valuation prices (as in the material master record)
Period status of the material
Integration: Using material ledger data, the system collects information on material movements (such as goods receipts and invoice receipts) in each period at historical exchange rates. This data is used during material price determination to calculate new valuation prices for the material. Then, the material stock account is reconciled in multiple currencies with the accounts in Financial Accounting.
If the material ledger is active for a particular plant (and consequently for all materials in that plant), material ledger data is automatically created upon the creation of the material master record or upon production startup. You can see whether the material ledger is active by looking in the accounting view of the material master record.
As per my experience Implementing material ledger along with upgrade should not have any impact on upgrade activity but it is recommended that u treat these two as two individual project. If you are using some tools like solution manager etc u should ideally create two different projects in Solman. one of them should be of implementation type for material ledger while the other one should be an upgrade project. u can further choose ur raodmap etc accordingly and move ahead.
Hope this helps.

Material Ledger Active - K088 Settlement doesnt use Actual Cost Comp Split

Production Order quantities are all scrap (in confirmation) thus order balance contains Consumed Materials and Activity Allocation
When KO88 Settlement is run, the system uses Standard Cost Component Split to allocate the residual to Cost Components instead of the Actual Cost Component Split
When we run the flow trace, the message says:
"Splitting according to output material S-Price CCS"
Expectation was that costs would flow according to Actual Cost Component split.
There is note 756167 - This note activates the update of the actual cost component split information in the material ledger document when you perform the order settlements.
However current release is 604, so its expected that this is already applied.
Any help or insight on how to settle using Actual Cost Component split is appreciated.

The second option you mentioned of using separate value field for transferring the standard cost component split from the actual cost component split is the way SAP designed this integration between CO-PA and the Material Ledger. But 40 value field for cost component split is excessive. CO-PA allows up to 120 value fields maximum, so I agree it does not seem prudent to use 80 of them for this purpose.
I suggest you reexamine the level of detail you think may be needed in CO-PA and try to use CO-PC reports at the cost element level to report on more detail. Keep the CO-PA view more aggregated and you can stick with the standard solution for comparing standard to actual costs in CO-PA.

What are the Advantages & Disadvantages in Material Ledger?

Hi Experts,
What are the Advantages & Disadvantages in Material Ledger?
Is it there any problem if you run CKMLCP next period 10th day?
What is the criticality in ML as well as why all are very fearful to implement it?
Thanks
Bhagirath

Hi,
One cannot speak of 'disadvantage' in this case... If you activate material ledger, you acieve different valuation logic of the prices in the procurement process. Please, consult composite note 532932 for further info. The intimidation of activation is a result of numerous 'bugs' in previous SAP releases regarding the material ledger documents. Most of these 'bugs' are fixed, but the fear remains

Material Ledger doubt

Hi All
Can anybody please explain regarding the transaction key LKW ( in TCODE : OBYC configuration)
As this LKW key is for Material Ledger documents postings for Accrual and defferals account. As per my knowledge system post the FI document to relevant GL assigned , when we do the ML Costing Run (using TCODE : CKMLCP).At the time of run in the step posting if we don't select the revaluate material check box, system is asking for assignment of GL to LKW key.But the thing is i don't know which entries it'll posted in this case and why it is required to post
But, could anybody please explain the purpose the key LKW.
It'll be great helpful for me
regards
VVR

Dear Kalappa,
If I want to revalue the stocks, Material Ledger ask me to configurate OBYC operations PRD, PRV and PRY , what kind of accounts I must define here?.
I think if I not going to revalue stocks the consumption is going to be in the actual month you said I must use revenue accounts, it is correct? can you explain more about it? In that case ML is going to make accounting complementary? because all the movements in the beginning was costed by standard cost but now I calculate the Periodic Internal Price, ML is going to make accounting between the difference Periodic Internal price and Standard price for example for movements like consumption, cost of good sales...?
I would appreciate your help as soons as possible.
