Material ledger currency types-manually

Hi,
I have a question about material ledger currency types.
Does it cause any problem if i have set the currency types manually as different then additional local currencies for company code in FI? I have to set the currencies manually. Does it have some disadvanteges? Because when i try to do this in configuration system gives a warning:
"Do not make any changes (SAP entry)
Message no. SV117
Diagnosis
You have changed an entry which, according to the name space definition is managed by SAP.
System Response
Your changes may be overwritten at each subsequent upgrade or release change.
Procedure
Avoid changing this data. If the change is inavoidable, document it carefully, so that it can be repeated, if necessary, after an upgrade or release change. The best way to do this is to put the data in a change request, which you can export before an upgrade or release change, and import again afterwards."
I need your helps.
Thanks a lot.

Error-Material Ledger currency were changed in material master creation

Hi all,
Iam trying to create a material master record in IDES database.
When iam entering into accounting 1 tab system is throwing the following error "Material Ledger currency were changed".
Without entering necessary information in the accounting tab i cannot proceed further , so kindly suggest me what is the necessary setup that i need to do to avoid this error.
Expecting a reply from you all.
Thanking You
Gopala

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.

Questions in Material Ledger Currency

Hey Gurus,
I am having some problems posting documents with MIGO because Iti gives me the error message C+052 (inconsistency in valuation of material).
While accessing the tcode CKM9 I see that one of the currencies is inconsistent as you can see in the print.
Do you know if this is the origin of my error? How can I correct it?
Cumps,
MB

Hi Manuel,
Just a thought, as a follow-up to Owen's comment above ...
Before you consider the reversal of production startup, consider the following:
1) If it is only one material that causes this problem, then consider reversing all material transactions during the current period, close any and all production orders, purchase orders, etc that use this material, and see if a deletion flag can be set, and then use a new material. If ML close gives you a problem after reversing all the transactions, see if you can change price determination to 2 and then do ML Close.
2) See if any of the utilities in Material Ledger Help Desk will be helpful in fixing this error.
3) Above all, consult SAP FIRST before you run reversal of production startup etc. They may have a simpler solution.
Of course, I know you will perform all these in a test environment first before you venture anything in Production Environment, right?
Cheers,
TD

Material Ledger Movement type Groups

I need to activated ML in a SAP ECC 5.0 client, But When I add entries in OMX7 (Define Movements type groups of Material Ledger) I can not modify "Revaluation of consumptios" field. Is there any dependence I need to review before add a group?
I have been reviewing other clients and it is possible. Why I can Add groups but not change this field?

I guess the revaluation of consumption functionality resides in the financials extension. Therefore a precondition for that setting might be to switch on the extension.

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.

Material Ledger : Foreign Currencies

Hello CO Experts,
I am working on Material Ledger (ML) and seeking help from experts & SDN.
With the help of few replies on forum, I have understood that ML fulfills two basic objectives: The ability to carry material prices in multiple currencies/valuations, and actual costing.
My concerns :
1. Since multiple currecies (maximum 3), may I know which exchange rate type (M, B, G, etc) does ML relates, when displaying amount in different currencies in the material's master.
2. We have a customized / new exchange rate type "TH", as per exclusive request of the clients. Our clients have a query, if they can view ML amounts as per the rates updated OB52 in customized / new exchange rate type "TH".
Please help me to understand and an advice on my concerns.
Regards.
Hussein.

Hi Hussein,
For ML multiple currecny valuation, Exchange rate type is picked up from Controlling Area Settings. Check the path Controlling-> General Controlling -> Organization-> Maintain Versions-> - Version settings. Selct version 0-Plan/actual version. Choose Settings for each Fiscal Year. Check waht is maintained in exchange Rate Type? Is it M or TH?. If it is M, ML multiple currecny valuation picks values from OB08 for exchange rate type M.
Thanks & Regards,

Revaluating COPA COGS with Material Ledger values (KE27-B0 curr type)

While attempting to use transaction KE27 to revaluate COPA with material ledger's cost component structure, we are getting an error for the B0 (Operating Concern Currency) records. The error (KE 435) states that "Costing Key ML1 does not exist". I have defined this costing key and it appears to be working for the Company Code (curr type 10) currency records. Does anyone have any idea why I am unable to restate the Operating Concern Currency records?

Hi Thomas,
The system posts the difference between the original values of the line
item and the new values in a new, separate line item, but in the same
value fields. To avoid the error message KE435 you have to define for
the costing key a value field for actual costs for your operating
concern in customizing :
Profitability Analysis -> Master Data -> Valuation ->
Set Up Valuation Using Material Cost Estimate ->
Define Access to Actual Costing/Material Ledger ->
Costing Key for actual Cost Estimate ->
Val.Fld Allocatn for Periodic Moving Average Price (total cost)
That is necessary even though you defined already value fields in
Cost component structure (cost component split) in customizing :
Profitability Analysis -> Master Data -> Valuation ->
Assign Value Fields (transaction KE4R)
The program expects both entries, one for cost component total cost
and several for cost component split. If there is a cost component
split defined for material the valuation will distribute the share of
costs to the value fields according the definition.
Only for material without a cost component split the program will
assign the costs to the value field for total costs.

Enhance 2LIS_03_UM to include Material Ledger and Group Currency

Hi all,
I have searching for a solution for this issue for almost a week now both in SDN and Service Marketplace but seems that there is very less informaton about it.
Background:
We are in the process of implementing the standard content for Inventory in BI and have followed all the steps necessary to initialize and load data. Out data matches perfectly with reports such as MC.1 and MB5L however in the Revaluation datasource there is no provision to pickup other currency type for material price maintained in material ledger.
I have been trying to find some User Exit/BADI either in the V1/V2 posting or during V3 collection run to pick the delta in standard price and Moving Average Price (MAP) for these difference currency types but without any success.
We have total three valuations maintained in the ML (Material Ledger)
10 - Local Currency (this is the only one provided in the standard content extractor)
30 - Group Currency With Group Valuation
31 - Group Currency with Legal valuation
Even if I change the Group currency in MR21 the change is picked up by 2LIS_03_BF and with the field BWGEO blank. This is not surprising since this field is for Local currency only.
I am sure that someone must have faced this issue before where material ledger is active, any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
Delta load extracts data from Delta Queue based on your update mode selected in LBWE.
Full Load or Init load extracts data from Setup tables, here if you are extracting data from setup tables ? did you fill the setup tables now or not after deleting the existing data of the setup tables?
are you getting same values when compare to R/3 and BW data for some document numbers?

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.

Material Ledger Actual costing - fully costed BOMs and variance type split

We are in the process of activating material ledger and have 2 user
requirements that we have not yet been able to complete. First, the
difference between standard cost and weighted average cost needs to be
split between the variance types (raw material purchase price, raw
material usage, packaging price, packaging usage, etc.). Secondly we
need a fully exploded cost itemization that supports the weighted
average cost, similar to the costing structure pane in transaction
ck13n.
Do you know of any custom developement that might assist us in these
requirements, or have any information that might help us develop a
process to calculate these values ourselves.
Thanks

Material ledger 643 movement type showing up under cost center

Hello everybody
We are in the process of implementing the material ledger.
We have two processes of stock transfer in our system
1. Plant to plant- mvmt type 641/101 (intracompany ) which ML is recognizing as stock transfer
2. Cross company STO- mvmt type 643/101 (intercompany) which ML is putting it under cost center and not as stock transfer
As the number 2 scenario is also stock transfer and we are seeing under cost center bucket we are not able to join the PGI document to the recieving site and vice versa of the GR to the supplying site. Hence have a problem to transfer variances too.
So is there any way-to make the cross company stock transfer also as a stock transfer in ckm3.
Appreciate it.

Hi
Your requirement class settings must have had sales order as a cost object
1. Go to sale order, procurement tab
2. Check whats the req type
3. Go to OVZH and check whats the req class assigned to this req type
4. Go to OVZG and check whats the acount assignment cateory in req class.. I think it is E
You should use a proper req class/type to avoid this error

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,
                    Udo

Material Ledger Additional local currencies for company code

Hi Expert,
I would like to add a second local currency in the "Additional local currencies for company code" in order to have 2 currencies available for material ledger. (Material ledger is not yet activated for this company code)
The second local currency must be the group one "30". Could you please tell me wich valuation I have to choose ? 0 1 or 2.
I went on the SAP library but I didn't find something clear. I tried 1 but I have an error message...
Thanks and regards
