Material Ledger WIP Revaluation OBYC

Hi
Can anyone please give example or documentations regarding OBYC for transaction key WPM (WIP from Price Differences ) and PRM (Price Difference from Exploded WIP) ?
And what the accounting journal would be like for those 2 transactions?
Thanks

Hi,
There are two new transaction keys for Differences From Reduced WIP:
WPM     WIP from Price Differences (Material)
WPA     WIP from Price Differences (Int. Acty)
During the WIp Revaluation:
To build-up of new WIP (material):
PRY   PRV   KDM   KDV   -> WPM
To Build-up of new WIP (activity/business process):
     GBB(AUI)                    -> WPA
The Reduction of WIP and the rollup of the differences to the product are posted in two steps:
Step 1: WPM/A -> PRM/A:     The values are based on step WIP Revaluation
Step 2: PRM/A u2013> PRV/KDV: The values are based on step multi level price determination
The PRM and PRA are:
PRM for Materials Differences of cancelled WIP (Materials)
PRA for Activity Types Differences of cancelled WIP (Activities)
I hope this clarifies a bit,

Material Ledger -- WIP values

Hi,
We have material ledger functionality active and want to extract the WIP values based on the Production Order. Currently we are executing transaction Code CKMLWIPDISP for viewing the WIP details and the values in object currency and controlling area currency are appearing. We want to know the table which provides the above details
Can anybody suggest the table which will provide us the WIP values based on the Production corder incase if the material ledger active.
Regards,
Shree.

Hello Shree,
Some more tables
CKMLCRWIP                      Material Ledger: WIP Period Records (Values)
CKMLLACRWIP                    ML Activity Types: Period/ Currency Records WIP

CKMLWIPCUST                    Customizing: WIP To Actual
As told earlier I'm not in a position to verify since there are no records in the current system.

Material Ledger (COML) - Revaluation of Consumption

When we revaluate the consumption, does it really update the production orders where the material was initially consumed or its just an accounting effect in the form of jvs. If itu2019s the case of not effecting production orders, how would I do the variance analysis with respect to my actual costs (after revaluation).
Thanks
Chris

Hello Amol and Udo thanks for your replies -
Now i understood revaluation happens for single level consumption but still have some doubts.
"If the revaluation is not updated in production orders, how does variance analysis makes sense - because all through the period, material issues would have been at the standard prices only. Can you please eloborate on Material level variance analysis.
can the material issues to production orders be considered as single level consumption?. I would have determined periodic unit price after considering the variances from production also (prod orders) meaning all oders are settled. If I revaluate actual CO object (Cost center /production orders) what happens to the additonal debit/credit due to revaluation."
Thanks
Chris

Reverse Material Ledger Process Order Revaluation

Hello,
I have settled process orders for Material Ledger and revalued them. More postings have been made after this has occurred. How do I reverse this process?
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Hi
Go to the following path in SPRO:
Controlling -> Product Cost Controlling -> Actual Costing/Material Ledger -> Actual Costing -> Activate Actual Costing. Double-click on "Actiavte Actual Costing" and change the indicator from "2" to "1".

Material Ledger Closing

Dear Gurus,
While material ledger closing using CMKLCP,i need clarification for the following process.
1. Single/level
2. Multilevel.
3. Revaluation of Consumption
4. WIP Calculation
5.Post closing
6. Price update.
can anyone explain about the above process outcome, what is the difference between material ledger WIP Calculation and Production order WIP Calculation.
While price update for price control material S, we need to re run cost estimate or it will update the new prices.
Appriciated for valuable inputs.
Ramesh.

Hi Ramesh .
Hope you understand clearly the purpose of standard costing and why we use Material Ledger .
Standard Costing is based on a pre-determined /derived prices for a period/year and all costs are caputed on the basis of the standard Cost . Goods Issues/Receipt , consumption all are at standard cost.
COGS GL Account is at standard and all the inventories are at standard ..
Difference between standard and actual costs are captured as variances in different GL Account . Mainly we have two variances... price variances ( at the time of purchases ) and usage variances at the time of production ..
Material Ledger is a seperate module.. where it calculates the actual costs . Variances are rolled back to the consumption accounts ( which is at standard ) to derive the actual cost . Actual Cost = Standard Cost + Variances .
1. Now Finished Material is made of Raw Material and Semi-Finished Goods . ...When we calculate the actual costs of finished product .. we can find out the actual costs of raw materials and semi-finished goods. ML will find out the actual cost of raw material , semi-finished goods and finished goods. This concept is know as multi-level determination ... In Single level.. only one level of material cost is computed as actual.. not rolled back to the lowest level.
2. Revaluation of consumption during ML run means .. the COGS ( which was at standard earlier) is now being revaluted and becomes actual..
3. WIP Calculation calculates the WIP costs on actual.
4. Post Closing Step will put the new GL entries.. where variances will be nullified and COGS and inventory will become actual.
5. Price Update is optional.. you can make the actual costs computed as standard cost for the next month..
Production Order WIp Calculation = Actual Qty X Standard Rate
ML WIP Calculation = Actual Qty x Actual Rate
Please revert back for any further clarifications

Setting Material Ledger to Productive

All,
How do I set the material ledger to productive for a given plant ?
The accounts are all setup and everything is fine in transaction OMX1
(the active material ledger is checked for the plant\valuation area)
However in transaction CKM9 the material ledger is not yet productive.
How do I make it productive ?
Thanks,
Mark

Dear Mark,
After installing the Material Ledger it is necessary to run a transaction to define the Material Ledger as productive for a valuation area.
Note: Once defined as productive, the material ledger cannot be deactivated. This procedure must be executed only when there are no material movements for the period. Also, if there are material master data for production related materials (material types ROH, HALB and FERT) already in the system they must have a standard price registered .
Prerequisites:
To install the Material Ledger/WIP functions is also necessary that the extension EA-FIN (Financials Extension) has been activated. To check if this extension is active use the following path: IMG > SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Activation Switch for SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension Set
1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
Installation Role J18 Product Cost Planning / Material Ledger -> Material Ledger Installation -> Repeat Steps for each Productive Plant -> Production Startup of Material Ledger
or Transaction CKMSTART
2. Run the transaction CKMSTART for all valuation areas.
Reward points if it helps.

Naveen.

Material Ledger,Revaluation Production Cost Center ,Standard Cost

Hi, I have a problem with revaluation of production cost centers.
Firstly, production cost center expenses are settled via activity types onto the production order at the end of the period. However, CKMLCP revaluate cost centers after the settlement because of using standard price. So cost centers at the end of the period have some amount.
As a result we can not find actual price for production orders.
If I use standard cost in order to consume on cost centers, material ledger revaluates again this cost centers. I dont want this condition. Because this cost center is settled to other cost object before closing.
Thanks.

Material ledger activity rate revaluation account determination modification

Scenario:
SAP ECC 617
Material ledger activated with activity rate revaluation (i.e. cost center over/under absorption posts to ML and not to production orders)
Standard SAP setup has PRV transaction key used to post both multi-level price differences to inventory and to capture the offset to the cost center clearing entries (GBB-AUI) causing the values to get comingled in the same account
Question:
For reporting purposes I would like to determine a unique account for the activity rate revaluation entries. There is no relevant general modifier available for transaction key PRV. Is it possible and practical to modify table T169A for a specific value string / field name combination that represents this material ledger transaction? If so, what is the combination? Or will this cause major issues with ML processing?
I'm trying to find a creative way to fill this gap without account substitution.

Hi Eric,
This is an interesting one.
Modifying value string might be an option but in my opinion is quite a serious "brain surgery" on the system :-).
You may want to try another option.
In SPRO -> Controlling -> General Controlling -> Organization -> Maintain Versions
for version 0, Controlling Area Settings, Settings for Each Fiscal Year in tab Price Calculation there is field Revaluation.
One of the options there is 'Own business transaction'. With this option posting to sending Cost Centre resulting from actual activity price revaluation will be posted with different Business Transaction (although same secondary cost element as original activity allocation).
In reports you can separate postings based on Business transaction.
It definitely works for Activity Update 1 (revaluation of production orders).
I'm not sure if it works for Activity Udate 2 (no revaluation of production orders).
Please let us know the results of your investigation.

Szymon

WIP Cumulative value(Material Ledger)

Hi,
We have executed the material ledger acutal cost WIP Transaction Code -- COMLWIPDISP. This t.code is reflecting the WIP Cumulative value which is inclusion of WIP Price difference. Cany anybody let me know how this value is calculating and in which t.code. In which table or function module we can see the WIP price difference value and cumulative value.
Regards,
Shree J

Hi SJ,
The below example will help you to understand your query:
SFG product standard cost is 90 ( as per the BOM materials).
Production/Process order is created, released and Raw material are issued to this Production/Process order. The status of this Order is not yet changed to TECO/CNF due to there are still some more operations has to be carriedout. So assume at this stage total cost is 100.
When you run your month activities like WIP/Variance/Settlement Calculation and also CKMLCP (Actual Costing Run).
After the month end activities, if you execute COMLWIPDISP, system will display Cummulative WIP value as 100 and difference 10.
Thanks and Regards,

WIP costing procedure and Material ledger

Dear all,
we are using 4.7 release and it has been asked to implement WIP in our company.
I would like to have some information regarding the activation of WIP in production orders for product costing and the impacts on Material Ledger.

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.

Abhisek

Actual Costing/Material Ledger (CO-PC-ACT) - Actual costing

Hello,
I have same problem with actual costing in material Ledger.
When I perform the actual costing a price differences that belongs to materials (orders) which at the end of the period are WIP, remain not split and don not book them on Accruals and defer.acct(material ledger) (OBYC - Transaction LKW).
Moreover, in the following month, system does not taking into account the value.
Does anybody had similar problem or knew how tu handle it?
Thanks in advance,
Rafal

Hi Rafal,
there is a functionality built into acual costing to cover this:

Material Ledger doubt

Hi All
Can anybody please explain regarding the transaction key LKW ( in TCODE : OBYC configuration)
As this LKW key is for Material Ledger documents postings for Accrual and defferals account. As per my knowledge system post the FI document to relevant GL assigned , when we do the ML Costing Run (using TCODE : CKMLCP).At the time of run in the step posting if we don't select the revaluate material check box, system is asking for assignment of GL to LKW key.But the thing is i don't know which entries it'll posted in this case and why it is required to post
But, could anybody please explain the purpose the key LKW.
It'll be great helpful for me
regards
VVR

Dear Kalappa,
If I want to revalue the stocks, Material Ledger ask me to configurate OBYC operations PRD, PRV and PRY , what kind of accounts I must define here?.
I think if I not going to revalue stocks the consumption is going to be in the actual month you said I must use revenue accounts, it is correct? can you explain more about it? In that case ML is going to make accounting complementary? because all the movements in the beginning was costed by standard cost but now I calculate the Periodic Internal Price, ML is going to make accounting between the difference Periodic Internal price and Standard price for example for movements like consumption, cost of good sales...?
I would appreciate your help as soons as possible.

Material Ledger Error CKMLWIP099

I have been working with Material LEdger (ML) for several years and was deeply involved in the configuration and testing prior to deployment. I have recently come across a problem I can find no resolution for. The message is CKMLWIP099. The text is as follows:
"Internal error in FORM/FUNCTION CL_CKML_WIP_DBACCESS->QS_COMPLETE in position 5 with RC"
The issue occurs when running the WIP Revaluation step within CKMLCP Costing Cockpit.
Our version is 4.7. I tried wating until the material period was two periods old and using the "Must_WIP" tip, but the same error happened. Now, the few parts with this error have infected 10 times as many other parts. I have reviewed the materials as well as all movement types and can not find a logical problem.
If anyone has any ideas or advice I would appreciate it greatly. I have logged an SAP help ticket, but that could take a long time and become very difficult.
Edited by: Juggler2010 on Dec 15, 2010 6:11 PM
We opened a ticket with SAP. They found that some PP orders from 2007 popped up in Oct-2010 for which WIP had been run. In my experience there was a time that PP orders RA was accidentally run for a period far into the future, which caused ML to break for every part involved. They had given us a special program to cure that. I ran that program before opening the ticket, but it found nothing to fix. This time, SAP asked us to implement note 1497118, which installs the program WIP_HELPDESK. That program should only be run by SAP. After deleting the bad WIP qty records, I ran material ledger for the failed periods with full success. Problem resolved.

This may help others who experience this unusual issue.

WIP revaluation Implementation for Brazil Localization

Hi Experts!
I need your knowledge for wip revaluation as follows.
1.Is WIP Revaluation(not semi-finished material) mandatory for actual cost in Brazil according law?
2.If it is mandatory, After actviation of WIP revaluation of material ledger(CKMLCP),
Do we have to revaluate avitivity price at matrial ledger closing instead of product cost collector closing
during the mothly closing?
I'll appreciate your reply!

Hi
Go to SPRO-Controlling-Product Cost Controlling-Actual Costing/Material Ledger-Actual Costing-Activate Actual Costing
IUpdate of Activity Consumption in the Quantity Structure
    Setting for updating the consumption of activities and processes in the
    actual quantity structure. Three different settings are available:
    '0' = Update is not active
    '1' = Update is active but not relevant to price determination.
    Consumption is updated in the quantity structure but not taken into
    account upon price determination.
    '2' = Update is active and relevant to price determination. Variances
    between the activity prices/process prices posted during the period and
    the actual price at the end of the period are adjusted subsequently.
Consequences
    If the update is relevant for price determination in a plant, all
    allocations to orders that are settled to materials are posted with a
    constant price throughout the period. The valuation strategy is
    invalidated inasmuch as a price is calculated according to the strategy
    only for the first activity allocation. For all subsequent allocations,
    the constant price is used, even if the strategy would dictate
    otherwise.
    The update settings can only be used together with Actual Costing.
Data can not be updated correctly if the setting changes within the
period. (price determination would generate incorrect debits to
materials)
Dependencies
If you activate activity consumption update in the quantity structure
with the with (Activity update relevant to price determination), the
differences for the cost centers/processes are subsequently debited to
the relevant material. Therefore, if you activate the activity
consumption update in the quantity structure with setting '2', you
cannot complete the step 'revaluate actual prices' during period closing
for Cost Object Controlling as this would subsequently debit the
material twice.
