Material ledger for lean accounting

Question

Hi friends,
We are planning to implement ML for actual costing. The problem is client want to change their standard SAP process to a diff process. Instead of posting to Inventory B/S account when received goods, they want to debit to a P/L account and credit gr/ir. I am not sure how ML handles this, the other issue is during consumption to a production order, they don't want to hit the consumption account. They just want to do a goods movement with 261 type with quantity value (only material doc but no accounting doc) to production order. I am not sure if ML can look at this material document and calculates a $ value to have consumption.
Please help

Hi Sridhar,
Thanks for the reply.  We were not clear on the design. Now we placed a design in place (not sure if this works). We r planning to do standard SAP procedure. 1)  Dr. Inv (b/s) Cr gr/ir when goods are received and 2) Dr. Consumption Cr. Inv (b/s) when issued to Production order.  The plan is to post additional entires during posting 1) like Dr. Purchased mat (p&l) Cr. Invent change (p&l).   The main reason for this is management wants to look at the inv on p&l side (like dr. p&l account rather than inv b/s and dont want to touch that account for credits)  but from ML perspective it will create problems so we are planning to follow standard and make additional posting in 2 p&l accounts which will total to zero. 
Please let me know if you see any problems from ML side and also how can we make a setting to automatically do the extra posting when goods r received.
Thanks
