Material master price, inforecord price and GR

Hi gurus,
Can annybody please clear my confusion. On the PO the price that is proposed is from the inforecord. When we receive the PO, what is the price at which the stock will be valuated? is it the material master price or the inforecord price? if we change the price on the PO after the inforecord has proposed the price, will the GR be valuated at the changed price of the PO. Please expolain
Thanks

the GR is valuated according to the price control set in the material master. if the price control is standard price, then the GR is valuated with the standard price, no matter what price the PO has.
in case of moving average price: if the goods receipt is executed before the invoice receipt, the goods movement is valuated with the purchase order price. If an invoice is already posted, the system uses the price of the invoice. If a partial invoice is received, the partial quantity corresponding to the invoice is valuated with the invoice price, the rest is valuated with the purchase order price.
if you change the price in the PO before you do a Goods receipt (and before you post an invoice receipt), then the GR is valuated with this new entered price.
how the price in PO is determined can be read in OSS Note 456691 - FAQ: Price determination in purchasing

We need to create a program using which we can update material master moving average price for a specific material.
For this we are using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.

Please advise,
Thanks.

Price Control V or S in material type
When is it useful to use the price control V or S in Material Master ?
Do I have to follow the SAP standard setting in the material type for the following material types:
- ROH(Raw materials) -> moving average price
- HALB(Semifinished products) -> standard price
- FERT(Finished products) -> standard price
In which case and why is useful to change these standard setting in material type?
What is difference between standard price and moving average price?
When and how to use it?
Standard price are used for products that do not fluctuated frequently. It is usually used for finished or semi finished products.
Moving average price are used mainly for raw materials that are purchased externally. The advantage of using moving average price for your raw materials is that your inventory costs will always reflect the current market cost.
SAP strongly recommends that you do not select price control V for semi-finished products and finished products, because doing so will very easily cause the calculation of unrealistic valuation prices. SAP recommends:
Price control V for raw materials and trading goods; price control S for semi-finished products and products.
If you nevertheless select price control V, take care in the following situations:
1. Unrealistic prices occur if materials are produced and also retire during one period (that is, the inventory at the end of the period is smaller than the total of aquisitions from production orders) and if, in addition, several production orders belonging to a material were finished in this period, and the production order settlement calculates variances at the end of the period. Every single production order carries out an inventory coverage check and may therefore cause the moving average price to be changed. However, the individual production orders do not check whether the inventory available at the end of the period has already been debited by another production order.
Example: on 20 workdays in the period, 1 piece of material xyz was produced for each day and delivered to the warehouse at a price of USD 1000. At the end of the period there is 1 piece at the warehouse. Since an activity price of a participating cost center was higher than planned , every single production order calculates cost of goods manufactured of USD 1100 during the settlement. Every single one carries out a inventory coverage check and finds out that the variance can be posted completely to the inventory. That is, the ending inventory of one piece is debited with USD 20 x 100 and it consequently receives a price of USD 3000.
1. A settlement is carried out although not all costs have yet been posted to the order. This can even result in a price of 0 for the delivered product.
2. No period check of the costs is carried out on the order, that is, costs from previous periods may be settled.
3. Settling orders is already possible in the 'Delivery completed' status.
Solution: Standard price for products together with possible manual price changes.
If you are required to valuate semi-finished and finished products with actual prices that correspond to the costs of the actual production, SAP recommends you use the function of the material ledger for this. Here, a periodic actual price is created that is calculated on a much more reliable basis than the moving average price. A so-called price limiter quantity is used which makes sure that in the above example price differences are proportionally taken into account (95% of the total price differences) when valuating the 19 pieces withdrawn from material xyz which results in a periodic actual price of 1100 USD. In addition, it is possible as of Release 4.5 to even take into account the variances of the actual prices of the raw materials in the valuation of the semi-finished and finished products that are manufactured from it.
If we select std price for any type of material or mav and then make po, it will pick from material master or what?
The Purchase Info Record have the FIRST priority. When no po info record is found, the Purchase Order will pick the user LAST enter price. The PO module do not pick up any price from material master.

Ashok

Calculated Std cost est vs Material Master Std cost price

Hi all,
Why will a calculated std cost est not be equal to my standard price in my costing 2 view on the material master? For ex:
I calc a price for material 1 = R11.50
The price in the material master (MBEW-STPRS) is R10.80.
I can see that the difference is some activities for one of the operations in my production process, but it does not show on my material master.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks,
Hein

The planned price can be copied from CO-PC, or entered manually depending on your settings in CO. If you open the standard material cost and release it the two price of planning price and standard price will be same.
As to the price of PO that is another price, actual cost happened.
FYI.
If no marked standard cost estimate exists, you can enter a price in this field manually. This makes it possible for the system to find a price when costing an assembly via the valuation strategy, even if no standard cost estimate with status KA (correct) exists for a BOM material (such as a raw material or semifinished product).
If you subsequently create and flag a cost estimate for this material, the results of this cost estimate are adopted as the future planned price, and the manual entry overwritten. It can then no longer be changed. Therefore, you are recommended to use the Planned price 1, Planned price 2, and Planned price 3 fields to maintain the planned prices of material components and to define them in the valuation strategy.

How to set charactersitic in material master as read-only and changable?

Hi experts
We try to change classifcaiton view screen variant. Our target is only one transaction variant could change the classification type z02 ,its characeristic in material master. we hope to know for such case, we could use transaction varaint to meet the target or not ?
We try to use this first, but we use shd0 and click " change in process" button, it will say " variants are possible only for dialog transactions". I checked in se93, it seems this variant maybe is not for dialog transaction .
But how to change such screen varaiant content?Any steps we should follow ?
Thanks

the only way to find out for sure is if you test it thoroughly. i cannot help you there, since i don't know about your setup in classes and characteristics. you might want to try your transaction variant of several different material always trying to change the classification. there's another thing: one material might belong to n classes. test that scenario by adding one material to class z01 and z02 and check how the variant behaves ...

yes it can. maybe you have to do a bit more configuration about classification, especially if you want to group screens etc. -> please refer to help.sap.com for detailed documentation.

Usage of MDM's material master relevant XI Content and Business Content

Dear all,
In MDM's material-relevant XI content, there's a message interface "MDMMatmasIn". But in the demo system this interface is not used to write material master data to file. The IDoc type MATMAS.MATMAS05 is used instead. No mapping is used. May I ask why?
I tried the 00_MATMAS05_R3.map file and can import file in the format of MATMAS.MATMAS05. But some value mappings are not done and have to be added manually. Do I miss precedent steps?
In MDM Business content, there're lots of import map files like 00_MATMAS05_R3.map and 03b_Units_SAP_R3.map. During the data consolidation procedure, should we just use one map to import the IDoc-XML file? Shouldn't we first use other map file to fill the lookup tables? If not, what are those map files used for? Is there any document about the usage of those map files?
Very sorry for asking so many questions. I'm very new in this area and desperately need help...
Best Regards
Jerome

Hi Christiane,
Thanks for the document. But I didn't find how to import the customization data into the lookup tables. For example, in the MDM standard business content, the "Material" repository contains a lookup table "Material Type". It doesn't contain the values like "ROH" and "HAWA". How can we fill such tables?
And the standard map "00_MATMAS05_R3" doesn't automatically add such values into lookup table by value mapping. When I tried to import a material master, I had to manually modify this map. Is there any solution to this problem?
Best Regards
Jerome

Post material master idoc with class and characteristic values

Hi,
I need to post the class and characterstic values of material while posting the material using idoc of basic type matmas05 . Can anyone suggest me the fields and segment details to fill the class, class type and characteristic values in matmas05.
Note : the class and characteristic values are already created in the system, my purpose is to assign them to material while creating. so please give me the field and segment details in idoc basic type matmas05.
thanks
Kiran

I try to do the samething. I see the fields E1CUVAL : CU: Characteristic valuation in the structure of MATMAS05 but when I run the IDOC, these fields never appear even they exist for the material.
Did you find an answer to your question that can help me?

Material Master Change Pointer IDOCs not generated for Moving Avg Price GR

No IDOC is created or distributed when the moving average price
changes. Each time a Goods Receipt is performed, the material master
moving average price (MBEW-VERPR) changes but the change is not
distributed. No change pointer is created in the tables. Why?
We need to send the moving average price each time it changes. In our
case, each time a Inbound Delivery has been Post Goods Receipt this
value changes for that material + plant combination and the value
should be sent.
The field MBEW-VERPR is included in BD52 as a field relevant for change
pointers for the message type.
Please advise.

Hello,
SAP will not generate change pointers (and no IDOCs) for Moving Average Price (MAP) changes. This is because MAP updates are not really Master Data changes and they are driven by transactions such as Goods Receipts, Revaluations etc. For these transactions, SAP will generate respective accouting documents for traceability.
Thanks,

Planned price in material master default in valuation price in PR

Hello,
I want to default planned price of material master in valuation price of Purchase requisition,
Currently MAP is defaulted in valuation price field in Purchase requisition.
Is this possible by using any user exit?
Regards

Yes this is possible .you have to use the BADI ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST and method PROCESS_ITEM if the PR created manuallly or through MRP. Try this User exit also MEREQ001
If the PR created through sales order you could use user exit in sales order program name:SAPMV45A and subroutine : USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_ME_REQ in the include MV45AFZB.
Appreciate if it is helpful

SAP: Cannot save product cost in commercial price in material master

Hi,
I have created a PCE which is designed to save the cost estimate in commercial price in accounting tab in material master. The issue that I am facing is that the cost; that is released perfectly is not saving in the commercial price in material master; instead the price saved in the commercial price is the previous price.
If I try to change the "costing type" for the PCE to any where other than "commercial price" or tax price; the price is saved successfully.
My question is that why the PCE's price is not saved in the commercial or tax price in the material master.
I would really appreciate your help.
Regards,
OZ

Salaam Osman Bhai
In the costing type, choose "prices other than standard price".
And while doing CK24, you can choose the commercial price field to receive the cost estimate result

PuP price not changed in Material master

Hello All experts
I have one question about the material ledger related transaciton, I have a Material with 2+V (price deter. and price control) setting in Material master data in Accounting 1 TAB. And material ledger is active for this material, the Periodic Unit price is 1 USD in current period and stock is 0.
One PO posted for this Material for purchase with actual price 100 USD, and 101 movement type with special stock indicator E was used in Goods receipt posting. I think these stock will be treated as valuated sales order stock. But GR posting didn't trigger any PuP price change in Material master. Is that situation normal? Pls kindly help.

With price control V in activity-based material price determination (indicator2 in the material master), the moving average price is calculated. With price control S, the material is valuated with the standard price and the moving average price is calculated for information purposes.
In single-/multi-level material price determination(indicator 3 in the material master), the valuation price (standard price) remains unchanged and a periodic unit price is calculated for the closed period.
This option is only for materials with price control indicator S,and is only recommended if in addition to multiple currencies and/or valuations, you use single-/multi-level material price determination.
In single-/multi-level material price determination, a periodic unit price is updated for information, but it can only be used for material valuation in the closed period.
