Material Price Forecasting - Future costs

Does anyone know how to obtain future planned costs of Finished products, at the moment we have current costs which are from the monthly cost build.
I would like a method of entering several months of future price estimates of Raw materials and use these to calculate forecast pricing of finished products.
If this is possible please could somebody provide me with instructions
Thanks
Tony

  • Coverage material price forecast

    i want to run a report on coverage material price forecast....how do i go about that

    Hi,
    Could you please elaborate your requirement.
    In std.SAP there are no reports available for Material Price Forecasts.
    Anyhow you have reports such as ME1P which provides you the purchase order Price history.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Volatile raw material price and actual costing

    Hello,
    We are investigating the use of material ledger / actual costing in SAP. We have multiple production plants and multiple distribution warehouses that would be modeled as a plant.
    We are worried that due to the extreme volatility of our raw material prices and the fact that some of our products have low volume or slow turnover in some warehouses, our cost of goods sold in SAP using material ledger / actual costing will be difficult to explain and not reflective of actual conditions.
    For example, if a product is placed in Warehouse A in month 1, receives very little new product in months 2-4, and then we sell a lot of that product from warehouse A in month 4, the cost of those goods will be very close to the month 1 cost. We are worried about how that will affect our cost of goods sold.
    We would like to hear from other companies that have similar conditions to see if this really causes any problems using actual costing / material ledger.
    Thanks,
    Jimmy

    Hello,
    Thank you for your response. We would like to understand why other companies do not have a problem with this behavior. Our company is concerned that this will reduce visibility of raw material price fluctuations in COGS (and reports that use COGS data), and make it more difficult to explain COGS behavior. Note that we have some reports on COGS data by material.
    In our current system, COGS consumes inventory at the average price accross all warehouses.
    Thanks,

  • Any data source to extract material price or Standard cost history

    Hi All,
    Currently we are using data source 0CO_PC_ACT_05 for material price extraction.
    But it seems this will only extract current period, previous period and previous year last period.
    But my requirement is to extract the material price history for any old periods.
    Do we have any table from where we can extract this details? or any standard data source through which we can extract this details?
    Thanks,

  • Ke24 cost of goods sold field reporting future price not actual cost.

    Hi Guru's
    KE24 line item report is showing a future price in the costs of goods sold field.  Can this report be configured to show the actual costs of goods sold from the relevant accounting document.
    thanks

    Thanks Mr Ajay for understanding my question.
    As I told mentioned in my initial question that  I have created the GL:500000 (COGS) when CRM/SD issues the stock for delivery.
    What my FI done is that the same GL (500000) is assigned both in GBB-VAX and GBB-VAY as per the client requirement.
    Now suggest me as how to come out from this situation?
    If I need to do Validation ,request you to give your guidance as how to do it as I never done.
    Thnaks in advance.

  • Cost Centre assignmement in Material Price variance Posting

    Hi Friends,
    I see that when the user does a material price chnage posting thru MR21, it correctly hits the GL account as per the account determantion Procedure UMB (Gain or loss from revaluation).
    I am qquite clueless from where does it pick up the cost centre to be assigned. This account (Cost element) has not been defaulted to any cost centre.
    Please suggest me where I am lacking.
    Thank you.

  • Material Standard and Future price

    I would need to extract the material standard and Future price ( with effective date). I am aware that this information will be stored in MBEW table. Is there any extractor that would give us this information ?
    I tried 0CO_PC_ACT_05. This would give us only price types ( P01 and P02 i.e Standard and MAP).
    Is the custom DS is the only option ? Do i need to enhance 0material Infoobject by including the Standard price, Future price and Effective Date fields ?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Yes, there is no other data source as per your needs.
    You need to enhance your standard data source(0CO_PC_ACT_05).
    please check your info 0material have those fields at ecc side. check at RSA6 or table ROOSFIELDS.
    Above fields if you need at reporting level then you  need to enhance 0material_Attr and mark those info objects as navigational attr. so that you can use them at bex level to play with filters or free chars.

  • Valucation Type PROD_PRICE (material price) and NET_COST(Material net cost)

    Hello gurus,
    When transfer BOM to GTS, we got two values in product master under price tab:
    Valuation type PROD_PRICE: 1000USD (valude is same to standard price in ECC material master)
    Valuation type NET_COST: 900USD (where it is from?)
    Can you please tell the difference between above two?  In most cases, those two types have same values in product, but sometimes they are different.
    Thank you,
    Ryan

    Hi ,
    Please check the Valuant variant assigned against the step " Define Goods Received Valuation for Order Delivery" in IMG under Product cost by Order.
    This will have impact on the valuation.
    Njoy
    Siva
    Check the Price strategy for Materials. SAP help says as below :
    ================================================================
    Define Goods Received Valuation for Order Delivery
    This step is only relevant if your have specified price control V in the material master records of semifinished products or finished products.
    In this step you specify how the receipts for materials with price control V are valuated.
    When the master record of a material specifies price control V, the value for the credit is determined using a valuation variant. You must define this valuation variant separately for each valuation area. The valuation variant determines which material price is used for the credit posting.
    For materials with price control S, on the other hand, the credit posting is always made at standard price.
    If you deliver to stock at a price that is not the standard price, the system will report an output price variance in variance calculation.
    Requirements
    You must already have processed the step Define valuation variant.
    Actions
    If you have materials with price control V, you must specify for the valuation area which valulation variant should be used at the time of the goods receipt. Specify the goods receipt valuation for your material with price control V in this step.

  • Material Price updation through Material Ledger

    Hi,
    I implemented the ML and after executing the ML Costing run & on 1st movement of material( Dynamic price release) the The Per Unit price* which is calculated in ML costing run is not updating in the current std price area in Costing View 2 Tab.
    I think the previous periods( for which I did ML Costing Run)  Per unit price has to update in the Current planned price in Costing View 2. Instead of this , the std planned price of previous period only updating in the "future Planned price".
    Please explain how to get the Previous period Moving price in Current Planned price in Costing View 2.

    Hi,
    I did CK11N & CK24 in Feb for example, and the price updated in current std cost estimate.
    after month end closing I did CKMLCP,  I heard that after completing all the sequence of oparations, The actual cost incurred for the material will update in Perunit price and Price controle will become from S to V, and we can get the Moving avarage price of Feb will become the Std price for the March month.
    This is not happening , How we can get this Moving Avarage price of Feb month as a Std current price in March month.
    Pls inform wether it is possible or not, if possible what is the method to get.

  • Random check before releasing price updation in costing run

    Hi all,
    Before releasing the price with standard cost estimate how we have to check the correctness of prices & costs of materials.
    Please suggest any standard SAP solution is available or any other way to check correctness of cost estimate & prices of materials.
    thanks & regards,
    ramesh B

    If you are doing the costing run through ck40n then you can see the error message if any generated against the marking. If there is no items for which there is any error, then u can release the cost.
    Next you can take a sample checkup of the Material Master Costing 2 tab to see whether there is any amount entered under the future tab with the posting period as the period for which the costing is done.

  • Extracting PIR (material prices) Data into BW

    Hi Experts,
    I am working on a BI Integrated Planning project. Product cost will be calculated in CO-PC. During cost roll-up system can pick material prices from any of 5 fields i.e. Standard price, Future Price and Planned price 1,2,3. I have a requirement to update the current material prices from purchase info records to one of the planned prices fields.
    My initial solution was as follows:
    1. To rely on the users to download the PIR or contract prices into Excel
    2. Apply % uplift to the prices in Excel
    3. Then use an ABAP to update the uplifted prices to the material master future or planned price fields.
    However my client is not happy with this solution.
    Another option I am looking at is:
    1. Extract the prices from the PIR's into BW and then download to Excel s
    2. Apply % uplift to the prices in Excel
    3. Then use an ABAP to update uplifted prices to the material master future or planned price fields.
    Is this feasible? If yes, how can I get the prices into BW.
    Thanks in advance,
    Milind

  • How to include Freight charges and unloading charges in Material price.

    Hi All,
    Can you pls. advice how we can include freight charges & unloading charges in Material price (MAP) when receive in system.
    Current Situation :
    We buy Switchgears from vendor, which transported with special vehicle arrangement from different service provider and gets unloaded at warehouse by another service provider. Currently business create seperate PO for Material vendor, Freight Vendor and for unloading service provider. But MAP is only updated with Material cost only. How can I include delivery cost and unloading cost in MAP thro standard SAP process.
    Your solution will help business heaps.
    Regards,

    Hi,
    Create three condition types namely basic material price, freight charges & unloading charges.
    For  basic material price , you can copy PB00 and rename your basic material price condition type.Now freight charges & unloading charges condition type in M/06 , do not maintain condition category ( keep it blank ), so that it will added to inventory cost .For freight charges & unloading charges do not maintain account key & accrual key in Pricing procedure.
    Cretae PO , now you will see all cost added to NET price in PO and you can for doing GR where all cost are inventoried as materisl cost.

    Hi,
    You can use this report to compare two itemizations. The report compares the characteristics item number, item category, cost element, resource, material, cost center, plant/work center, cost center/activity type, operation number, BOM item, assembly indicator, and cost component.
    You can access this report as follows:
    Accounting ® Controlling ® Product Cost Controlling ® Product Cost Planning ® Material Costing ® Cost Estimate with Quantity Structure or Cost Estimate Without Quantity Structure ® Compare
    or
    Accounting ® Controlling ® Product Cost Controlling ® Product Cost Planning ® Information System ® Object Comparisons ® For Material ® Itemization Comparison.
