Mat ledger Productive

I have a material ledger for a valuation area activated in OMX1 but we did not set to PRoductive using CKMSTART. Its been 2 months since , can we set it to productive now.
Also there are other plants having ML productive in the same company code.
is there any issue in doing that..
or what would happen if its not set to productive
Any clarification is appreciated.
Thank you

Material ledger production start up

Dear expert,
we are working on a project that has two main objectives:
1) now the customer is using the mtv 103/105 and we want to move to the 101
2) now the customer is using a custom 'medium price calculation' and we have to activate the material ledger.
I red the note 596558 and I have some question; first at all I would like to find some documentation about this activity and the effects of a Material ledger production startup, could someone tell me we can I find info ?
The question are
At point f) is wrote
u201CYou should always transfer purchase orders and purchase order histories before activating the material ledger. This ensures that the system translates the purchase order history in all additional currencies.u201D
What does it means? Why it is necessary translate? How?
If a company has only the local currency is it necessary the translation?
At point j) is wrote
u201CWe recommend that you close open orders before activating the material ledger and recreate them after the activation if required.u201D
WHY?
The posting logic for postings that reference a purchase order is changed in the parallel currencies due to the activation of the material ledger. As a result, there may be unexpected price postings and exchange rate difference postings for purchase orders that are not closed in business transactions (goods movements and invoices) that are posted later.
Which unexpected postings? Refers to new u2018Transactionu2019 (e.g. BSX, WRX, PRD, KDM, u2026) used after the material ledger start up?
Now the customer is using a custom u2018medium price calculationu2019; we think to reverse all movements in the year (103, 105, invoices) for order item not closed and recreate the goods movement with the new model (101, invoices) after the ML activation.
Thanks in advance.

In our case CKMSTART was definately done before Inventory load. This Tcode was part of config prior to Master data creation and migrated data loads....

Material Master (Material Ledger- Product cost actual costing)

When I create a material in MM01 and no Standard price is set the columns "Company code currency" y "Profit valuation" are disabled.
The only column available is the one corresponding to company code currency. The field "Price unit" starts with the number of 1000 and this information is not copied to the other price unit fields unless you introduce a value in the Standar price - Company code currency field.
Does any one knows a user exit that can modify this values (Price unit - Group Currency and Price unit - Profit valuation) ?
Kind Regards

Hi
1. It is not mondatory to activate Material ledger to create Product Cost collector.
2 It is not mondatory to create product cost collector if we actovate Material Ledger.
Material ledger Activation
1. In OMX1 activate ML and price determination 3 for production plants and 2 for sales depo plants (if need)
2 In. OMX3 assign ML type standard
3. Configure dynamic price changes : assign price release 1
4. Assign material update structure to a valuation area
5. Activate actual costing indicator and assign 2 Activity update relevant to price determination
PCC:
1.In KKF6N,enter the material,plant and select create button and select the order type as
RM01, radio button selected for production version and assign the production version here
2.Save the PCC for preliminary costing
3. PCC integrates with PP module in production version selection

Mat Ledger, Per.Unit Price for materials showing wronglu in Group Valuation

Hi,
Periodic Unit Price of the materials for plant 1300 belongs to company code 1300 showing wrong value in Group Valuation.
Usually Periodic price for all valuations viz., Legal, Group and Profit center valuations should be same, why because we are using same cost component structure in order to arrive the actual cost for all the above three valuations.
Even though Group Valuation of Per. Unit Price is not matching with the Legal and profit center valuations Per. Unit Price. But both legal and profit center valuations are matching.
Please note that, actual cost component split for actual costing is not activated for plant 1300.
When analyzing this issue, it is observed that only the settlement value in between the Group, Profit center and legal valuation is differing for material ledger document.
But accounting document, PCA document, controlling documents are updating correctly.
Please help us how can i proceed to get the details of cost components, even actual cost component structure is not activiated for actual costing.
what are the possible reasons for differing values in Group valuations.
Regards,
S Vasu
Because of this reason system is calculating different values in group valuation (comparatively with legal and PCA valuations) at lower levels and flowing the same values to multilevel.

Questions on material ledger

Dear All,
i want to activate material ledger in a company code, but i have some concerns that maybe some of you could give me the best suggestion.
1. is it possible to activate Material Ledger in the middle of SAP operation (i mean in the previous years, we didn't activate the Mat Ledger, just by now we have the idea to activate it)
2. what are the impacts by activating Material ledger, and some concerns that maybe exist in activating it?
3. is there any recommended link that gives the steps for activating it? i got some resources, but apparently the steps don't apply to my system, especially the step when I want to set the valuation area as productive (FYI, my SAP version is 4.7)
Many many thanks!
Nasikhin

you may check below notes, hope it can helps:
Note 596558 - Material ledger production startup
After activate material ledger, you need to start up the ML using tcode : CKMSTART , then check using CKM9 for detail.

Activation Material Ledger with material working in price control "V"

Hi experts!
I have activated Material Ledger and I have a question about this..
1) Before the activation, I have for example a material with the next values in the "Accounting 1" tab:
Total stock = 7 UNI
Price Control = V
Moving price = 166 USD
Standard price = 166 USD
Total value = 1.162 USD (7 UNI*166 USD)
2) And after the Material Ledger activation, In the same material appears the next values in the "Accounting 1" tab.
Total stock = 7 UNI
Price Control = V
Standar price = 166 USD
Per.Unit price = 23,71 USD
Inventory value = 166 USD
I don´t understand if my total value before activation was 1.162 USD, when I have activated ML, the new value is 166 USD.
I dont´t understand why the value for the "Per.Unit price" is 23,71USD and not is 166 USD because this is the original value before ML activation..
I think that my inventory value must be the same before Material Ledger activation, (1.162 USD)???
Best Regards
Manuel

Hi Shaubhikg:
At first, thanks for your response.
I have founded another material wich has the next information before the material ledger activation:
In the Accounting 1 tab:
Price control: V
Moving price: 1.265,80 USD
Total stock: 5 UNI
Standard price: 553,00 USD
Total value: 6.329,00 USD
After the material Ledger production start up, the same material has the next information in USD:
Standard price: 553,00 USD
Per.unit price: 1.265,80 USD
Price control: V
Inventory value: 6.329,00 USD
In this case the total value of the stock is the same after and before to do the activation of ML. I think that this is good..
And can,t understand the example wich I saw you before.. In that case the Total value of the stock after activation Material Ledger is not the same that before activation..
The material doesn´t have any modification in his unit of measure..
Could you tell me someting about this issue??
Best regards!!

How the system know the actual period in the Production startup of ML?

Hi experts:
I have a question:
We want to make a prototipe of Material Ledger/Actual Costing.
At first we want to make a copy of all the information of one Client for example until 31.11.2009 to another Client.
I have readed that when you make the Production Startup process of ML, the system transfers inventory quantities, inventory values and prices from material master records to the material ledger data for the current period, the previous period, and the last period of the previous year.
The question is How the system can determinate the actual period??.. Is this based on the MM logistic periods??.
At last if we do the copy of all the existing movements to our client until 31.11.2009 but the MM logistic period was 03/2010, What is the Actual Period for Material Ledger at the moment that I realize the Production startup?.
Thanks and regards!!
Manuel

Hi Udo:
At first, thanks a lot for your fast answer:
In the SAP HELP library in "preparing data for Material Ledger (production startup), you can find the next:
When you have finished the production startup, the system does the following:
Transaction Data
1. Transfers inventory quantities, inventory values and prices from material master records to the material ledger data for the current period, the previous period, and the last period of the previous year
2.- Calculates the inventory values and prices in the currencies of the material ledger at the current date using the stated exchange rate type
3.- Amends the purchase order histories with the set currencies, using the settings for additional currencies found in Customizing for Financial Accounting
Like you said in your last replay, this process ONLY transfer (Quantities and values related to the inventory??
What happend with the goods movements which have already exists in SAP before you set Valuation areas as Productive in ML??..
Thanks!

Material Ledger Data Conversion

Hi,
We are going live on Material ledger on 1st.July 2009
Below are the steps for the cut over task:
i) Do not open the next period 07 using MMPV in 1st.July 2009
ii) Make the backposting on 1st.July 2009 for June 2009
iii)Open period 7 using MMPV
iv) Transport the ML cosfiguration
v) Do CK40N & MR21
So if we follow above steps then point (v) can be executed successfully
for the opening price in July 2009.
Hope to hear from anyone soon.
Thanks.
Regards,
Stagazer

Hi Stagazer,
I guess you have it on your list, but you didn't note it down:
after iv) and before v) you have to run material ledger productive startup and CKMM. Note that these might runtime-intensive jobs, depending on your data volumes, particularly in the purchase order history.
Following notes are interesting for that:

Canceling Material Ledger

Hi all,
I need to understand better which are the consequences in material ledger canceling procedure described in the following SAP notes:
SAP Note 108374 - Canceling material ledger production startup
SAP Note 425487 - Deactivating the material ledger in production systems
In particular I'm intrerested in which are the tables anda data involved by the deleting procedure.
My goal is the subsiquent reactivation of the material ledger in a multiple valuation scenario as described in the SAP note:
SAP Note 120380 - Subsequent activation of multiple valuation approaches
Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
Best regards, ALDO26X1

The following tables contain data that can appear in the material ledger documents:
· MLHD Material Ledger Document: Header
· MLIT Material Ledger Document: Items
· MLPP Material Ledger Document: Posting Periods and Quantities
· MLPPF Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Posting Periods and Quantities)
· MLCR Material Ledger Document: Currencies and Values
· MLCRF Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Currencies and Values)
· MLCRP Material Ledger Document: Price Change (Currencies, Prices)
· MLMST Material Ledger Document: Costing Run Header Data
The following types of material ledger documents are available, differing by transaction type:
· CL Material Ledger Closing Entries
· UP Material Ledger Update
· PC Price Changes
· ST Single-Level Price Determination
· MS Multilevel Price Determination
· RE Material Ledger Data Repairs
USE :
Material ledger documents are data that is recorded during each business transaction that is relevant to valuation. You can archive documents for closed periods when they are no longer needed for material price determination or reporting purposes. Archiving the documents deletes them from the database.

Product cost collector price differences .....
Many other, but you can explain some and give me example, and step by step giude me setup
Thank you very much

Hi,
Some of the companies are having a practice of paying payables with the rounding off rules. This rounding of in India could be from Rs.0.01 to Rs.10.00. For examble, there is a payable amount of Rs.125125.25 this can be rounded off to Rs.125125.00 or Rs.125130.00 while making payment. The balance amount should hit the rounding off difference account.
The same things is applicable for receivables also.
Over/under payment GL can be configured by using T Code OBXL
There is an another use, for details see the below link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/01/a9b9a6455711d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
There may be some more reason where you need to do this configuration,
Disc. difference
Incorrect cash discount rate
To be paid without deduction
Credit memo without backdated cash disct
Cash discount period exceeded
Reduction without doc.number allocation
Incomplete payment advice note
Payment amount is different
Debit reduced not paid
Debit reduced not paid
Reduced twice
Paid not reduced
Damaged goods - disputed
Goods damaged during transport
Quant.delivered not same as order quant.
Freight charges not paid
Miscellaneous deductions
Price variances - disputed
Partial payment
Returns
Residual item creation
Trade Promotion
Payment differences on debit side
Hope it clears your doubt.

Allocation of Price Difference

Dear Experts,
I am working for a cement industry. One of our Semi Finished material is Clinker which we will be using against production of cement and we sell clinker also.
The price control for Clinker is maintained as standard in system (150). There are 10 process orders for Clinker (5000 TO) and against each process order I have Variance totalling to 10000.
So the actual cost of 5000 TO should be = 150 * 5000 + 10000
                                                                  = 750000 + 10000
                                                                  = 760000
In my Production order Price Difference GL I can find the Production order variance 10000 + variance due to change in price
Production order Price Difference GL = 10000 + 2500
                                                            = 12500
The total production of Clinker is 5000 TO.
I have sold 1500 TO, 2500 Issued against process order and 1000 TO in my stock.
All has gone at standard price i.e 150 / To
I would like to know how I can allocate the production order variance of 10000 against Goods Sold, Goods Issued, Closing Stock.
Is there any way system will give me the allocation chart. Please help.
Thanks.

Hi
You can use KKO0 reports to see variance per cost component...
Map each of these act types to a separate cost como in OKTZ... Assign this cost comp in OKN0 and choose Mat Grup = Product Group
Then run KKRV to collect the data followed by KKO0

Material Master changes are not allowing (MM02)

Dear All,
we have done year end activities successfully for the 2010 fiscal year. we are following January to December. In 2011 January 9th date we have activated Material ledger. after that when we try to go to material master the system is giving this error.
"Currency was not defined at production startup
Message no. C+040
Diagnosis
You have set the material ledger to productive in valuatione area DEL1. Nevertheless, information about the currency settings at the time of production startup are missing.
System Response
The system cannot ensure data consistency, since it is not possible to compare the current currency settings with those made at production startup.
Procedure
1. Make sure that the currency settings have not been changed since material ledger production startup in valuation area DEL1.
2. Inform your system administrator."
Even when I try to create the new material master it is showing the same error.
Could anybody guide me how to solve this.
Thanks and regards,
Mr.Rao

Hi Mr Rao ,
Your ML currency settings are incorrect .. which is causing the issue..
A . Have you checked the following notes which give a detailed information about Material Ledger activation: 596558 Material ledger production startup 384145 Advice note on material ledger production startup 165844 Material ledger production startup Please, check attached note 596558, which provides recommendations on Material Ledger production startup: ...before ML activation .. i hope not ..
B Always activate the material ledger for a complete company code and copy all currencies from FI. This is the only way to ensure the reconciliation with FI. c) In addition, it is recommended that you activate the material ledger for a complete company code because the invoice verification can neither store invoices that contain materials from plants the material ledgers of which are active nor more materials from plants the material ledger of which is not active. ... Please, consider that only transactions performed after the startup will be taken into account for the actual price calculation.
C .Now to correct it .. you have to deactive ML and correct the currencies and then re-activate ML . Have a look into SAP : Note 53947 - Changing currencies after production startup. Now , are e the actual activities now posted and production is active .. if yes .. the deactivating ML is a pain.
D .If the Material ledger is already set to u201CProductiveu201D, run the report SAPRCKMJX using SE38. This report should only be run in Development or Testing environment. It is not recommended to be used in Production. It may be used in case there is no activity in the plant (no stock, no movements have happened ever). SAP recommends use of their CO-PC development support for this (OSS Note 108374).
Please revert back for any further clarifications

MR 11 error message C+ 171

Hi Guys,
I use MR11 and then I set the flag on chosen PO/item and post the system sends to me message C+ 171 'Error while determining the currency types for ..PO...item...)..Do you have any idea?I have searched in thsi forum and in OSS Note(740579,602965..)wit message C+ 514 515 but about 171 there is nothing..
Thanks in advance for help
Bye

Hi,
The message C171 comes from material Ledger. If C171 arises, then it
is completely correct, otherwise it would lead to an inconsistency in ML
currency. In this case something is not correct with the currency types
in ML. It assumes that the currency types are in ML different than at
the beginning. Examine the currency types to this order item with
transaction OB22 and/or CKM9 and table CKMLV and correct them, so that
MR11 can book.
They can look at themselves order history with CKMLOH and examine
therein the vouchers in all currencies. and correct them, so that MR11
can book. They can look at themselves order history with CKMLOH and
examine therein the vouchers in all currencies.
Always activate the material ledger for a complete company code
and copy all currencies from FI. This is the only way to ensure
the reconciliation with FI.
In addition, it is recommended that you activate the material
ledger for a complete company code because the invoice
verification can neither store invoices that contain materials
from plants the material ledgers of which are active nor more
materials from plants the material ledger of which is not active.
Please take a look in the note 425487, it describes the issue extensive.
425487   Deactivating the material ledger in production systems
Please also review and apply the following notes:
843022   MR11: Error log, purchase order number is missing

Internal error in LMLCCS_UPDATEF02 LCL_DB method get_normvector position A with RC 1 when VL31N processing only

HI Everyone,
I have mentioned error (Internal error in LMLCCS_UPDATEF02 LCL_DB method get_normvector position A with RC 1) only when I try to process IB GR in transaction VL31N.
This problem does not occur in other Material related transaction.
The Plan that we have problem was created many years ago and also ML was activated at that time.
We did not any changes to ML settings since.
I had revived followings notes:
639675 - Initialization of the actual cost component split
710808 - Activating actual cost comp split: check actual costing
584904 - MIRO: no procurement alternative/wrong price diff in ML
Seems like first one fit our problem the best, but in our cases we do not activated component split after the material ledger production startup and also we do not have such problem besides VL31N. In addition using above solution, even try, would lead to lost of historical data which we would like to avoid.
Does anyone faced similar issue and have an idea how to deal with this?
Thanks,
Rafał

Component group type assignment in call components in JIS

Hi All
How Component group type assignment is done in call components ?
Edited by: mayuresh bhurke on Jan 20, 2012 8:25 PM

Hi Mayuresh bhurke,
How the system will does the job:
The system carries out this function automatically, each time a JIT call is received. In this way it assigns each call component transmitted to a components group type. The components group type then takes on the internal control of the call components.
With sequenced JIT calls for assemblies, the system assigns several call components to the same components group type. With the other call types the call components and the components group type form a logical unit and the system therefore assigns a different components group type to each call component.
In the components group determination the system compares whether the characteristics of the call components match a components group type. As soon as it can assign a call component, it continues with the next one. In the profile for the components group determination you can define with which priority the system should consider the various characteristics. The system determines the relevant characteristics of the call components as follows:
JIT customer
The JIT customer is made up of the sold-to party and the partner description and can therefore be taken from the IDoc.
Unloading point and assembly location
The unloading point and, if necessary the assembly location, are also transmitted with the JIT call. The system can also take these characteristics of the call components from the IDoc.
Components group material
The JIT customer generally transmits the components group material with a call. You have several options for defining the components group material of the call component before the components group determination.
You can realize an individual components group material determination using a customer exit. This is particularly recommended for sequenced JIT calls for assemblies, due to the large number of variants.
If you use the process for discrete materials, you can transfer the material of the call components as a components group material.
If you use the process for discrete materials and exactly one components group material can be assigned to a call component, you can transfer the configurable material of the call component as a components group material. To do this you must have entered the configurable material in the material master of the call component in the tab page Basic data 2 in the field Cross plant conf.mat.
Production version
You can also assign the production version using a customer exit. The production version allows you to assign two otherwise equal call components to different components group types, to produce them on different production lines, for example.
There are also call types:
please follow the below link:
