Material Ledger for Stock Transfer Postings

Hi All,
I have a question about the way material ledger is calculated for stock transfer postings (movement type 641). I will give an example to illustrate this issue:
Material A has a Standard cost of $10
Material B has a Standard cost of $8
During the month 100 units were transferred from material A to Material B. This created a financial posting as follows:
Credit Material A -          $1000                               
Debit Material B -           $800
Debit Price Difference    $200
This price difference of $200 was used in the calculation of Actual cost for material B
However, the Actual Cost for Material A was $9. I would have expected the system to use this actual cost to calculate the difference to be posted to material B. Hence the difference used in Material B should have been $100 {(9 – 8) X 100} and not $200.
Has anyone had a similar issue, or know how the system resolves this (if at all)?
Points will be rewarded for relevance.
Thanks

Dave, I see that your process is slightly different to mine. We do not revalue inventory at month end, instead the material ledger program posts the revalued amount to a reserve account and the actual cost is only a statistical entry. The material ledger calculation is reversed automatically in the new month and the standard price is used for valuation.
I think this might make it difficult for the system to value STO's at actual. I may need to check with SAP.
Thanks

  • Incoming Certificate Request for Stock Transfer(inspection type 08)

    Hi Everybody,
    The system asks for incoming certificates when a material is received from external vendor(Inspection Type 01).
    Can we configure the QM system such that system requests incoming certificate for material coming via Stock Transfer(Inspection Type 08) also ? If yes, please give details regarding how to do it.
    Regards,
    Manish.

    Talk to your purchasing guru.  Stock transports can also be set up to look like incoming 01 inspections.  I believe it has to do with the delivery type that is assigned to the order type.  Using a different delivery type wiht the order, the system will treat it as an external vendor's delivery and will create 01 inspection lots instead of 08. 
    It MIGHT also ask for the certificate.  I won't swear to that as it was stated by the previous poster, this is controlled by the control key and that is usually linked to the purchase orders.  I have known some places to use purchase orders for replenishment supply from other plants.

  • No Quality Inspection for Stock Transfer

    Hi,
    There is a scenario now in which a material is activated for quality inspection. This same material is also used for Stock transfer from other plant with same company.
    So if material if received using STO, how can I deactivate Quality Inspection and just transfer to unrestricted use.
    Thank You,
    Raymond

    Hi
    check user exit.
    QAAT0001 Inspection type determination different from variant 01
    You can install enhancement QAAT0001 ,the function modules contained in this enhancement are called up in the
    programs in which you can access the master inspection type if necessary.
    The inspection lot is then created with the inspection type that was
    determined using the enhancement.
    logic will be for STO it will consider Z mvt type of origin 08 ,for STO material activate a Z mvt type & do not tick on Post to inspection.
    For normal stock trnsfer system will create 08.
    I hope this will add some value

    This explanation is not in detail and hence I am not clear about your configuration settings. 
    First go to IMG Logistics-General => Tax on Goods Movements => India => Business Transactions => Outgoing Excise Invoices => Assign Billing Types to Delivery Types.
    There ensure that you have assigned the billing type JEX (assuming that you are using the standard) to your delivery type NL.
    Perhaps, you can also try with "D" for your item category in Billing Relevance field but I am not sure this will solve your issue.  Try in development client.

  • Problem on creation of Outbond Delivery for Stock Transfer Order

    Hi all,
    We have problem on the creation of Outbond delivery for stock transfer order because the system doesn't group in a unique delivery for different items of a STO order.
    We used VL10B or VL10D but the behaviour is the same. Even if we have to handle few items of the Stock Transfer order already scheduled, the scope is to create a delivery which group everything while the system split in several delivery notes.
    Could you advice me the way to set in customizing , master data I don't know where else , the rules in order to avoid to split deliveries for STO.
    Secondly if we have already created a delivery note is it possible to add a further purchase order item as in sales order processing?
    Thank you for any suggestion you will give
    Andrea

    Dear Kripa,
    the first point has been solved. We have checked a SAP Note 386340 which is appropriate to this case.
    The second point, the one referred to the additional items to an existing delivery note, is not yet closed and I would like to know further advices  from you and the other guys connected to the forum in order to help us to solve the problem.
    Thanks for your help

  • Delivery without reference for stock transfer within the same plant 311

    Dear all,
    I need to create a delivery without reference for stock transfer within the same plant, movement 311,  i.e. just from 1 storage location to another storage location.
    I tried to use VL01NO with delivery type UL.
    Now my question is how can I assign a receiving plant for a customer?
    I can't do the MIGO or MB1B document because I need the delivery document (packing list, forms, Texts,...).
    It's possible this option???
    Thank you very much.

    Hi,
    What is the item category you are assigning while doing VL01NO?  Check the schedule line category for that item category assignment.  That Schedule line category has an option for one step GI.  There you can assign 311 or create a separate item category and schedule line category and in that SC assign 311. 
    Thanks

  • Return for Stock transfer

    Hi,
    I am trying to setup the return process for stock transfer order. To which plant we have to assign the delivery type. Is there any other settings for STO returns.
    Thanks
    Balu

    Hi
    Assign the required return delivery type to
    purchasing document category F (purchase order),
    purchasing document type (NB - standard purchase order, UB - stock transport order),
    the supplying plant (the one to which the goods are being returned)
    The following return delivery types are available in the system:
    NLR - intra-company-code store returns (purchasing document type UB for replenishment and return orders, delivery type NL for the replenishment delivery)
    NCR - cross-company-code store returns (purchasing document type NB for replenishment and return orders, delivery type NLCC for the replenishment delivery)
    Please do the customizing in SPRO-> IMG-> Materials Management-> Purchasing-> Purchase Order-> Returns Order-> Store Return / Return Plant to Plant
    Thanks & Regards

  • Low market price using Material Ledger for FG

    Hi dear Experts,
    We are using Material ledger for valuating 1 FG material with out quantity structure and its goning well but in the opening of a new plant after the actual costing calculation with have to adjust the actual cost to the low market price if this is low than actual cost of the month, do you know which steps I have to follow to make this happen I read something about parallel valuations and determination of lowest cost but how I can Carryout this to inventory valuation?
    Regards

    Hi Ganesh thanks,
    the market priceI have to maintain on one of the prices available in the material master, this is necessary in addition to any configuration to use  the mrn0?
    and just a doubt this could re-valuate the inventory for the closing period? and the difference as I read its posted to the COGS account, on the  next period or in the  closing one?
    thanks a lot
