Materials Bought and Produced

Question

We have materials with same material code that are both bought and manufactured. I need to identify them seperately and we dont use split valuation. In the P&L the material bought will pick up the standard price from the BOM and RECIPE in the financial documents. I might need to change this price based on the purchase order and goods receipt. How would I do this? Would I need an ABAP program?

Answer 1

Hi,
A lot depends on what information you want to get at. If it is
"How many were bought" and "How many were produced" then you can get this from the standard Purchasing lists and PP order lists.
What additional types of data do you want to obtain in a report?
Having the one material that is both purchased and manufactured should not present any major issues.
Your stock control is the biggest problem. If you have received some stock of each via the two different methods then you will need to keep this stock spearate on the system as well as physically separate  (you will need to know which one was issued, consumed or scrapped.)
So it sounds like you would benefit from batch management (or split valuation if the value of each is different)
