Material ledger tick in material master

hi
i have created material master Number ABC.
Make changes in material type and activated material ledger. Now ML tick is on all new material master being created its fine.
Question is how I can activate the ML tick on material number ABC which created before activation of material ledger.
regards

Hi,
no, It's not a big mistake and it can be solved quickly be SAP Support.
But you can try the following workaround:
1. You can change the material type of the material to a material type managed by value and quantity (txn MMAM).
2. Afterwards, change the customizing of the material type in OMS2 (I assume you've done this already).
3. Finally, you reset the material type again in txn MMAM.
If this does not work or if too many materials are affected, there is no other way than contacting SAP Support.

VPRS Cost in Material Ledger

hi all,
i have some problem here.
we use 2 local currency. first local currency is IDR, and second local currency is USD.
our client use material ledger, so in material master accounting 1, we maintain 2 value of inventory (in IDR and USD)
let say we create material XXX (using standard price) in 01 jan 2011 , with IDR value 1,000,000. the system will convert to USD with exchange rate in 01 jan 2011 (which is 10,000). so the USD value will be 1,000,000/10,000 = 100 USD.
then in 10 january 2011, Sales order is created for material XXX with document currency USD .
cond type VPRS get 1,000,000 IDR and covert to doc Curr (USD) with exchange rate in 10 jan 2011 (which is 9,000).
so the VPRS value in USD will be 1,000,000/9,000 = 111,11 USD.
by this case, the VPRS value in sales order is DIFFERENT with value in Material Master. it also become a problem when we want to see PROFIT MARGIN.
can cond type VPRS get the correct USD value according to Material Master?
thanks.
Best Regard,
Hendry

Please check the following notes which may help you
a) Note 547570 - FAQ: VPRS in pricing
b) Note 640692 - Currency conversion VPRS
c) Note 1365939 - VPRS logic and Customizing settings in SD

Material ledger error while doing GR

Hello,
I am getting the error " Error reading material ledger header record while doing Gr for particular material.when double clicked the error,I see this message "Internal error in function module CKMS_HEADER_READ_WITH_ITAB"
what may be the issue?
Regards
Goutham

HI,
I assume, you got the problem after material ledger activation or Material split valuation
please check the following two points;
There may be one reason, i hope the material is split valuated after creation of PO. Plese check the Material master in the accounting view whether it is split valuation activated or not
2. problem is other side, at the time PO creation, material is having split valuation after that materil was changed to non- split valuation.
With regards
Madhav

Material Ledger error

Hi
While doing MIGO, I am getting the error as Material Ledger is not active. There is no requirement for material ledger activation. How does this error can be solved.
Please suggest
Thanks
Sanjay

Hi,
Please check whether you have activated Material Ledger at specified Plant level by t-code-OMX1-Activate Material Ledger. But Material Ledger activation settings are not yet completed in your specified Material Master i.e., Material MasterAccounting1ML Active i.e. checking the box for activation of ML and defining Price Determination indicatoru20142 or 3. I guess missing of these settings, you are getting this error in MIGO activity. Please check and confirm.

Material ledger concept

Hi co experts,
Kindly explain the material ledger concept in product costing
Regards
venkataswamy

Hi
Material Ledger Overview
You want to perform actual costing for materials.
You want to carry your material stock in multiple currencies.
You want to valuate your material stock each posting period.
You are active as a corporate group in several countries and you use multiple valuations.
Actual Costing uses the Material Ledger to store material prices in up to three currencies and according to three valuation strategies (group, legal and profit center).
Actual Costing aims to provide the actual costs for each material at period close. Each material movement is recorded in the Material Ledger together with the preliminary valuation and any variance (from invoice or order settlement). Material settlement is used to integrate this variance into the material price at period close.
Both single -level and multi-level material settlement are available. Multi-level settlement is used to reconstruct the quantity structure based on the material movements for the period, and assign variances for the raw materials to the finished and semi-finished products as follow-up costs.
The actual price for each material can be updated to the material master for the closed period.
Regards

Actual Costing concept in Material Ledger

Hi
Masters , can any body please explain the concept of Acutal costing in material ledger i think that involves the following steps:
1 Activate actual costing.
2.Define userdefined names for receipts and consumption
3.Assign user defined names for receipts and consumption /
for the above 2 and 3 points what is the purpose we have to define and assign user defined names in coantrolling level selecting the B+ Procurement and V+ Consumption.
thanks in advance

Hi,
Actual costing is a huge concept. It is difficult to explain the concept in few words
Please go through the following link for detailed informaton:
http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/COPCACT/COPCACT.pdf
Configuration Points:
Path: IMG>Controlling>Product Cost Controlling --> Actual costing/Material Ledger
1. Activate Material Ledger for valuation areas
2. Assign Currency types to Material Ledger Type
3. Assign Material Ledger Type to Valuation Area
4. Configure Dynamic Price Changes
5. Define Material Update Structure
6. Assign Material Update Structure to a Valuation Area
7. Activate Actual Cost Component Split
8. Activate Actual Costing
Coming to your Questions 2 and 3. they are required to be created if you want your own Controlling level for transactions that you would like to differentiate in the material ledger, further than the standard system offers. Normally we don't use unless there are some specific business requirements
Some key points would be:
ML records all receipts, consumptions and variances for each material.
ML gives overview for each material of the starting balance, receipts, consumption, variance and ending balance.
ML calculates the actual cost for each material u2013 finished goods, packaging.
If a material has BOM, variances of lower levels are rolled up to next higher level up to finished goods, to calculate actual cost for raw material, semi finished & Finished goods in ML as unit price.
Calculated actual cost at end of month can be used as standard price for next period in the material master.
SAP MM is on standard price based costing, ML can do monthly average costing.
Direct settlement of all kind of price differences / exchange rate difference/ to materials at the end of the period.
Once activated , it is not that easy to deactivate although possible with implications like not having historic data.
Cannot be used in isolation : All the plants within the company code shall be material ledger active.
Material Price change is not possible after first transaction in that period.
Using material ledger, inventory in US plant in Canada will be available in USD and CAD
Hope this would help you.
Best Regards
Surya

Material ledger not closed

Hi ,
I am facing one issue in which the material ledger for a material has not been closed for a particular month. We have price difference in beginning and cumulated inventory. Is it because of the price difference ? or can it be due to some exchange rate difference ? How can I check this in system ?
Pls help.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi,
Please check if the material was correctly closed with transaction CKMLCP. Maybe for the material was manually closed without executing transaction CKMLCP. You can verify this if there is a post closing document for the material in that period.
I hope this helps.

Material ledger accounts range

Dear Experts
can you please explain ,
1]What is " Material ledger accounts Range " were it is created ,
2] what is its use
3]How to run material ledger
regards
bhaskar

Hi,
Material Ledger is created to follow the transaction posted through various movement types and check for any price changes.
The configuration for Material Ledger is done in Controlling > Product Cost Controlling > Actual Costing/material ledger.
The number ranges for material documents are based on the nature of transactions and transaction groups.
You have to create the Material ledger documents under document type ML and for passing on the entries to accounting
use document type 47. Material price valuation is a periodic activity done through CKMF and CKMH. You have the
analysis of the material prices through CKM3.

Difference between normal Costing run and Costing run in Material Ledger

Hi everybody,
I have a question i wanted to know why we implement Material Ledger .
If material ledger is for settling variances on material then that is also possible without material ledger
Please clear the doubt what is different in ML as compared to normal costing run
thanks in advance
Regards
Deepa

Costing run is to calculate the std cost estimate of materials and Material Ledger costing run is to calculate Actual cost of production of materials.

Material Ledger Unit Of Measurement different from Material Master

Dear Team,
In my client, there is a difference between unit visible in CKM3N and MM03. The base unit of measurement in MM03 is MT. Other than that, there are some other units maintained (not M3) in additional data tab in material master. In CKM3N, the visible unit is M3. M3 is not present anywhere in MM03.
Why would such unit flow in material ledger table? (CKMLPP has unit M3). Please advise.
One more observation is that when there is some price change document in Material Ledger, the proper UoM (MT) is being captured. Only in the basic price determination structure visible unit for each head is M3. Please check the attached screen shot.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Jay Shah.
