Hi All,
while doing a cost planning for materials through PS (Using unit costing) prior to quotation can we have from the system the latest PO price of the material.
System should give the price automatically
Thanks

You can try the valuation variant by using purchase info record as priority one.

Costing of product with last purchase price

hi
Is it that the the system has to pick up the last purchase price cost for standard costing run or while executing the production order, if it is while production order update material price as planned price in material master using Z program and use planned price as strategy for valuation variant in actual costing variant. But this is little bit cumbersome every time you have to run the z program for every purchase order for that raw material and if the prices are highly volatile input price variance will be very high

Approval if Unit cost is lesser or equal to last purchase price

Dear experts,
Is it possible to give query based approval if the unit cost in the PO is less or equal to the last purchase price of the particular item. If there are more than one item then it should validate for all items. Even if there is deviation in any one of the item it should go for the approval.
Please guide me in doing this.
thanks and regards,
Yeshwanth Prakash

Hi Yeshwant.....
This is Not at all possible even through query. You can have some work around for that but you can not get direct solution for this....
Approval for Row level data is always not possible.....
Please check this thread....

Difference between Item Cost and Last Evaluated Price

Dear All,
What is the difference between Item Cost and Price in Last Evaluated Price List. Exactly when are they updated?
Regards
Sibasish

Hi Sibasish,
The "Last Evaluated Price" is simply a price list but can't have a direct manipulation like other price lists. Its values may not involve in any accounting transactions if it's not selected for the concerned transaction any way.
On the other hand the item cost is the cost which is maintained by SAP B1 (until and unless you select the Standard Valuation Method), and it gets involved in the accounting transactions where inventory is involved. For e.g. the "COGS" is calculated on the basis of this value.
Please close this thread if answered ... or please let us hear something more from you on this...

Price List Auto Update based on Last Purchase Price

Dear Expert
                     I have a problem in updating the PriceList at one of my client site . They are making CST purchase
Eg.    We are entering purchase through Goods Receipt PO item cost 100RS and CST tax 20 RS
         Then Copy to AP invoice . so the item cost is coming to 120 as CST is non deductible tax .
         If we goto Price list , it will clearly show last purchase Price is 120 every thing is fine till now
       Now the issue comes :- company is incurring frieght charges 10 Rs or any amount this also has to be included to cost that we are entering through Landed Cost . This 10Rs is automatically adding to cost . if we look the item cost it will be 130 this is also correct . But the Problem is that when we go to Pricelist we find that Last Purchase price as 110 that is 100 Rs base doc price +10 Rs Frieght (Landed Cost) . .
Actually the Last Purchase Price should come as 130 (1002010) . We are dealing with 4000+ items it is difficult to mannually update the Price List .

Dear Shihabuddin,
In most localization, price is for before tax price. If you want tax included in the price, you can create your own price list to calculate.

Price for Cost Estimation - Info Records

Hi All,
We need a clarification on how system picks the price for COST ESTIMATION with following setting in Valuation Variant.
1.Valuation Price from USER EXIT
2.Price from Purchasing Info Records
3.M A P
4. Planned Price 1
Sub Stratergy.
1.Effective Price from Purchase Order
2. Net Quotation Price
3. Gross Quotation Price.
If we have 3 info records with the same validity date and different price in each for three vendor, what price will system pick for calculating the stand cost estimation.
We have activated Material Ledger and we in ECC 6.0.
Do suggest.
Regards,

Hi ajai,
I agree with your point,we have 3 info record for a material and 2 are valid as such. The price maintained in two info records are as 7.5 & 1.0 respectively(valid info records).
The last price in the purchase order (of the info those records) are 0.41(dated on 09.04.2010) & 0.2(dated on 19.04.2010) respectively, but when we execute the cost estimation the system picks the price of 7.5 not the least price of 0.2(as its the latest purchased price).
Do let us know why and of what logic the system picks the highest price.
Do revert.
Regard,

Last Purchase Price History

Dear All,
Is there any way we can have the Last Purchase Price History in SAP system?
Our customer has 2 stock transfer. In those 2 documents, she has 2 difference last purchase price on the document. But actually, she didn't issue any GRPO of that item during the period between the 2 stock transfer. So the last purchase price should be the same. How can I find out all the document during that period which may affect the last purchase price in the system? Thanks a lot.

When you enter an incoming invoice # see Purchasing
PO - No
When you enter a goods receipt # see Goods Receipt
Goods Receipt: No
When you enter a positive opening balance for an item # see Inventory and Stock Postings
Not sure what. But they don't have opening balance for the items last month
When you enter a positive inventory result that triggers a goods receipt # see Inventory and Stock Postings
Not sure what?
When a product with a BOM is manufactured, where the price of the product is calculated from the last purchase prices of the components # see Production.
The item is not BOM
When Landed Costs are performed. (Note: When adding AP invoice after landed costs was created, the last purchase price will remain unchanged)
No landed cost for that item

Last Purchase Price - OITM

HI,
We will be trying on the TEST system to do Goods Issues and Receipts to change the Last Purchase Price but because we use FIFO this may not give the result that we want ie in FIFO it is the the earlier price we want i presume?
I have heard another way of changing the Last Evaluated Price in table OITM as this is also the Last Purchase Price but are unsure the best way to do this?
Can anyone please suggest a way to update the Last Purchase Price ?
Thank you,
MB

Hi Gordon,
Do you mean these notes:
The 'Last Purchase Price' list can only be updated by the following documents:
u2022     AP Invoice
u2022     Goods Receipt (Inventory Transactions)
u2022     Initial Quantity (Inventory Transactions)
u2022     Inventory updates e.g. Stock Posting
u2022     Landed Costs
u2022     Production Order
If so, then do you think that the simplest and easiest way to update the Last Purchase Price would be by doing Goods Receipts ?
Just not sure the affect it will have doing Goods Receipt with FIFO...cannot seem to find much about it.
Best Regards,
MB

Last Purchase Price wasn't updated after GR with 0 price

I created Goods Receipt for the item with total 0. When I check last purchase price I see still a price from the previous document and not zero.
How can I make last purchase price as zero?
Thanks,
Olga

The Goods Receipt PO does not update the 'Last Purchase Price' list. The 'Last Purchase Price' list can only be updated by the following documents:
AP Invoice
Goods Receipt (Inventory Transactions)
Initial Quantity (Inventory Transactions)
Inventory updates e.g. Stock Posting
Landed Costs
Production Order

Picking the last purchase price of the material

Hi
For the purpose of estimating the cost of material presently we are taking the cost of the material from the moving avg. price maintained in the material master.
But now the client requirement has come to take the last purchase price and the currency in which material was procured for further calculation.
Can someone please suggest me from which table will I be able to pick the last purchase price of the material and currency and use it for further calculation in estimation?
Regards,
Niraj Sikligar

hi
Applied following logic and now could get the latest purchase price.
Field     Field description     Table / Structure
MATNR     Material No.     EKPO
EBELN     Purchasing Document No.     EKPO
NETPR     Net Price     EKPO
AEDAT     Last changed on Date     EKPO
ELIKZ     Delivery completed check box     EKPO
WAERS     Currency     EKKO
Note: The link between EKPO and EKKO Tables are EBELN and AEDAT fields.
With the material No. Purchasing documents will be sorted for that Material and all the purchasing documents will be again checked for delivery completed check, out of which the last purchasing document will be picked using changed on date and its Net Price will be picked in EKPO table. With this purchasing document no. and date, currency will be chosen from the EKKO table. This price and currency will then be displayed
Thanks all for your support.

Last Evaluated Price

Hi All,

Last Purchase Price & Last evaluated Price

hello experts,
i just wanna know what is the difference in between Last Purchase Price and Last evaluated price. our company uses FIFO.
what is the effect in goods issue if i will use last Purchase Price or Last evaluated price.
Thanks in advance.
FIDEL

Hi Avelino,
The last Purchase Price is the last price paid for an Item, meaning that this price is updated when an AP Invoice is posted as this is considered the purchase price. The price is not updated by Goods Receipt or Prchase Order as an example.
The Last Evaluated Price or Last Calculated is updated when either running the Stock Audit Report or the Stock Valuation Report.
Please note that if the company has been defined with 'Manage Item Cost per Warehouse' in the Company
Details and the Stock Audit Report is used to update the last evaluated price, then the price will be as calculated in the default warehouse of the Item.
For the Goods Issue, the price as given on the rows is only informative, the price that will be credited from the stock account in the Journal Entry is the calculated cost price according to the valuation method that has been defined for the item (FIFO, Moving Average, Standard).
With the Form Settings you can chose to display the 'Item Cost' field in the Goods Issue, this will however only be populated after the Goods Issue has been added. The reason for this is that the price could have changed between the moment when the Goods Issue form was opened and the time that it is added.
I hope this helps.

Activity Price in Cost Component Structure

Hi,
After costing run I have updated Activity Price in KP26.. I want to see latest activity price in Cost component structure e.g. Labour Activity and Machine Activity..cost for this a) Is it require re-costing run? b) how can we calculate activity price? e.g. total base qty/confirmed qty *no.of hrs. can you please corret me my formula I have maintain in KP26 capcity 500 and fixed price 10. I am able to see machine hrs. 6 in Resource data..
Thanks
Srinu

Hi Srinu,
Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
Use S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).
Best Regards

Price List and Last Purchase Price.

When a Price List based on the Last Purchase Price is created, we have found that a set of problems arise in companies using u201CGoods Receipt POu201D.
EXAMPLE:
Every article received from their suppliers are enclosed with a GOODS RECEIPT.
After 20 days, the supplier issue an invoice including all the Goods Receipts provided during the corresponding month.
Recall that the company has a List Price based on the Last Purchase price.
But, since the Goods Receipt do not update the Last Purchase Price, all new articles in the database, are kept without a Selling Price, and the old articles are not subject to an updated Selling Price. I enclose a draft to show this behavior.
[http://s2.subirimagenes.com/privadas/previo/thump_1047037compraitem.jpg]
You may note that SAP HELP explains:
1.In addition, two price lists are automatically created and calculated by the system:
    - Last purchase price list u2013 the price list is automatically updated when an item enters the stock with its entering price.
    - Last evaluated price list u2013 the price list is automatically updated after you run the Inventory Valuation report.
[http://s2.subirimagenes.com/privadas/previo/thump_1047038help-sap-b1-2007a.jpg]
But this does not happen.
Selling Prices are only updated when the corresponding invoice is entered, but this happen too late, since the invoice issued 20 days after by the supplier.
In other words, it does not work properly for the company.   The example shows:
1 Goods Receipt PO
2 Item master data with Price calculated alter Goods Receipt processing
3 base Price driven to zero.
If Goods Receipts do not update the last Purchase, is not easy to understand why a Selling Price can be based in the Las Purchase Price.
Our customer and me, think that there is a programming error.
Otherwise, the system behavior has not be properly explained to SAP users.
The described facts happen with SAP 2007A PL 49, and SAP 8 PL 5, both versions properly tested
That we need: That Goods Receipt update the last purchase Price and Price List could be constructed don Item bases cost.

Hi Dana,
I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but, you can create a new price list which is based on the "Last Purchase Price" and set as a factor of 1.65. I'm not sure if the "Last Purchase Price" updates from the Goods Receipt or the PO though?
Does this sound like it might solve your problem?

Change Last Purchase Price default on Goods Receipt

My client is running SAP B1 8.81 PL 06. They would like to automatically change the Last Purchase Price default in the Goods Receipt screen to Last Evaluated Price. Has anyone done this?

Gordon,
I agree with Bill. This is something that should be able to be changed. With SAP we chose to use landed costs to build our inventory values. The current setting ignores any additional costs allocated to inventory when we do a goods receipt for inventory found in our warehouse. A new layer is created at a value that is lower than the true value of the inventory. A fact that was very detrimental during this years audit. As it is currently set, we would have to do an inventory revaluation each time there is a goods receipt, such a practice is time consuming during the day to day and impractical during a year end physical inventory.
Is there a way that this can be worked around so our system can match the last real value of our inventory?
