Hi ,
  The Material Ledger(ML) is a tool within the CO Module that collects all transactional data for materials whose master data is stored in the material master. It acts as a subledger for selected materials that captures all goods movements, invoice values, transfers and price changes. On the basis of this data, the material ledger calculates and maintains the actual cost for these materials. This actual cost can then be utilized to valuate the material stock accounts.
Functions of Material Ledger:
-     Cost accounting using actual prices.
-     Storing values of stock in three different valuations (legal valuation, group valuation for reporting purposes, and profit center valuation) in multiple currencies.
   If you need any furthr docs let me know ..i will send docs ,,

  • Material Ledger Configuration Details

    hi friends,,
    can you help me out by sending detailed configuration material steps for Material Ledger
    & also how to view the scrap quantity at subcontractor stage
    with regards,
    jaya prakash

    Hi,
    To configure Accounting setting for material management use tcode FBKP  then double clock on the field  "automatic posting"
    select the field  "Material Management" then assign  to each  transaction key the corresponding G/L account.
    Concerning the subcontractor Stock use tcode MBLB. But you have no information about quality issue.  I mean we can't say anything whether the stock at subcontractor is useable or scrap.
    If your subcontractor has a scrap material he will  make a return of material to your plant. At this moment you can acheive the receiption through movement 542 and put the stock in restricted use.

  • How to configure Material Ledger?

    Does anybody knows how to configure material ledger? Please give me details on how to configure. Please and thank you.

    Hi,
    Here you need to define the valution method in t.code"OB59"
    then you need to assign the GL like forex gain and fore loss accounts in t.code"OBA1", now if you think there is difference then you can valuate in t.code"F-05".
    Hope understood and you can reward if you are cleared.
    Thanks,

  • Material Ledger Functionality with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock

    We are in the process of setting up Make To Order (MTO) with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock. We currently use the Material Ledger in our other businesses that use Process Orders.
    Does the Material Ledger functionality support MTO with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock? I have been testing this and have not yet figured out how to get ML postings. We are using production orders that settle to sales orders. We do not bring this into inventory, the costs reside on the sales order.
    If this functionality does exist, I would assume I need to configure the Material Update Structure but I cannot find any documentation on this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Greg

    Hi Greg,
    no, material ledger will not be able to calculate and allocate actual costs for the sales order in the scenario you describe. It would of course, if you used the valuated sales order stock.
    Generally SAP sees in the valuated sales order stocks (avaliable since 3,1 or something) a great improvement and no real reason to use still the non-valuated scenario.

  • Valuation area not yet productive with material ledger

    While doing goods receipt at MB1C,i got the below error:
    The description of the error is given below
    Valuation area XXX2 not yet productive with material ledger
    Message no. C+020
    Diagnosis
    The material ledger has been activated for the valuation area but material data has not yet been converted in this valuation area.
    Procedure for System Administration
    If you want to work with the material ledger, choose Accounting -> Controlling -> Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Utilities -> Production Startup.
    There you can convert the data for the material ledger by following the instructions in the online documentation.
    Note
    Setting the material ledger to productive cannot be undone.
    See also:
    Actual Costing/Material Ledger in the SAP Library.
    The implementation guide for Actual Costing/Material Ledger.
    Can you kindly suggest me how to fix this error.
    Regards
    Sabera

    Hi Sabera,
    The Valuation Area is not activated for your material ledger. Go to SAP Access>>Accounting>>Controlling>>product cost controlling>>Actual Costing>>environment>>Production Start up>>Set Valuation area as productive.
    If you already activated Valution area in to Productive Statge.
    Then go to T.Code OMX1 and for your valuation area XXX2 tick the ML activation box.
    the error wont come

  • Parallel currency in company code require material ledger activation

    Hello,
    I have a requirement where the company is using parallel currency in NEWGL concept with two different currencies INR and USD.
    I want to have a clarification whether I Need to activate Material ledger with parallel currency.
    1. Company is using parallel currency with only one legal valuation view.
    2. There is no requirement for product costing in the company.
    Can the balance in general ledger can be seen in both currency for inventory balances.
    Awaiting for your inputs
    Thanks

    If you don't need parallel currency at present, there's no need to configure it. Why should that be a problem, as long as your Business needs are not relevant to using a parallel currency?
    I suspect your actual query is details regarding the future problems that you might face when, faced by changed Business scenarios, you are forced to introduce parallel currency at a future date
    If my suspicion is correct, I suggest you look at SAP Note 39919. It's an old note - but one that I've found contains quite relevant tips and tricks about introducing parallel currency in a productive environment.
    Remember to assign points if found useful.

  • Group and legal costs without Material Ledger

    I was wondering is there a way we could have both the group cost and the legal cost in the system without having to configure material ledger. Currently we have Group cost in the system and no legal cost.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi NIK83,
    There is no other way to have multiple valuations w/o having ML in SAP
    ML is the only solution... If you want to upload the legal values, you can use the tax price or commercial price fields and take out a report comparing the 2 values using T code MRN9
    but, you will have to uplaod these values.. these cant be calculated w/o ML

  • Material ledger close period best-practice

    Hi experts:
    I am thinking about the model when you actívate material ledger actual cost. During the period we will be valuating our COGS according to the standard cost. During the close period, I understand that you can allocate the differences (for material already sold) directly to COPA. It means that we can allocate posting to accounts from account determination 'COC'  directly to the cost object that were allocated in the origin. Is that correct?
    Then, It would be only necessary to use COPA post-valuation if you need to break down the differences according to product-costing. is that correct?
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Best regards
      Jose

    Hi,
    It is possible to reopen a previously closed  period.   This is at your own risk.
    However, it is not something that we can recommend because there is a possibility that inconsistencies occur. If you decide to proceed with the process please review the documentation of program RMMMINIT (SE38)
    Please refer to the notes 487381 & 369637 in relation to this program.  Also review note 70545
    You should make sure that you intialize the period via program RMMMINIT as soon as possible to make sure that you will
    not create more inconsistencies. I understand that you may encounter error MM017 when running this report. You should bypass this message via debugging.

  • Material ledger in material master

    hello friends
    how to remove the check from check box of material ledger in accounting view of material master it is shown in gray field. also price determination field is mandatory how to optional it.

    Hi,
    In the configuration the material ledger might be active in the valuation area.If it is active in the valuation area then the check box in the material master is automatically checked.
    If the material ledger is active for a particular valuation area, all materials in the valuation area are valuated using the material ledger.
    If you activate the material ledger for a plant, you should also activate it for all the other plants in the company code. This ensures that the accounts in Financial Accounting and Materials Management are reconciled.
    You can deactivate this in SPRO-Controlling -General controlling--Multiple valuation approaches-Basic settings-Check material ledger settings.
    But be careful about the controlling settings while changing this.

  • 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.
