Miro hitting inventory and price difference

Dear All,
I would like to seek advice of the posting during MIRO on point 4 and 5 why there is a hitting on inventory account and price difference of the amount given? How system get the amount in inventory account and price difference account?
Really need advice.
1)
GR - qty 20
dr inventory $1500000
cr GRC $1500000
2) GI - qty 1 and now remained only 19 qty
moving price = $75,000
qty = 19
price unit = 1
value = $1425000
3) MIRO
dr GRC $1500000
cr vendor $1500000
4) MIRO say qty is 21 and amount no change
dr GRC $1571429
cr vendor $1500000
cr inventory $64626
cr price diff $6803
5) MIRO say qty is 20 and amount i enter $1507500
dr GRC $1500000
cr vendor $1507500
dr inventory $7125
dr price diff $375
thanks

refer my remarks in BOLD
4) MIRO say qty is 21 and amount no change
This scenario is not possible as you have taken GR for Qty 20 only.
*still you have added $ 71429 in GRC so this should be uploaded on Inventory ($71429 / 21 = 3401.38) hence Inventory account will get updated with $3401.38 * 19 (available stock) ie $ 64626 & diff of 21 - 19 = 2 * 3401.38 ($6803) will be updated in Price Diff account*
dr GRC $1571429
cr vendor $1500000
cr inventory $64626
cr price diff $6803
5) MIRO say qty is 20 and amount i enter $1507500
* Goods receipt is posted with 1500000 but vendor has presented invoice of 1507500 hence the additional cost ie 7500 has to be loaded on inventory but available inventory is 19 as 1 qty is already issued from stock hence (7500/20 = 375) for 19 qty inventory account will updated with $7125 (375*19) & for material which is already issued prior to taking invoice receipt ie 1 Qty (375 * 1) = 375 will hit to Price Diff Ac.*
dr GRC $1500000
cr vendor $1507500
dr inventory $7125
dr price diff $375

Landed costs and price differences

I'm trying to figure out what PS does to adjust for total value discrepancies between an invoice voucher and associated PO. Say on my PO I have a line item with quantity of 2 and unit price of $10. Therefore total value is $20. When I create a voucher, that same line item is now 2x$11 = $22. I approve that voucher for $22. Now I run the Extract Landed Cost batch process. What does this process do to "compensate" for the difference between voucher and PO? Does it change the unit price of that item in inventory from $10 to $11?

Hi, yes you are right: Using this approach ML would use price differences for other batches and increase their value instead of posting them as loss like the initial cost.
The way around that would be to post some unplanned material good receipt for the loss production order, e.g. a material called scrap. In account determination you might make sure that these materials have own stock and price difference accounts that you could treat special in your balance sheet.
This would be shown in ML like a joint production between the planned product and the scrap material and multi-level variances would be distributed using following an apportionment structure from material master.
If it is difficult to maintain a reasonable apportionment structure you might implement BADI cost_split described in note 997264.
Also a good possibility would be to use a quantity-proportional split that can be derived from the ML quantity structure.
I could provide an example implementation of that.

GR / IR and Price Differences

Hi
A question on price differences.
We currently post our price differences at goods receipt (PO price - Std price).
And secondly at invoice receipt (PO price - Actual price)
In order to be able to analyze easier, we want to post goods receipts always against standard price.
At invoice receipt the full price differences should be posted then.
Does anyone know if and how this setting is possible in SAP ?
Thanks.

Hi
If PO is created for 90 then how you are paying 93 to vendor. You are following PO based IV?
If you want to pay more to vendor then better to use the option debit material in IV.
In MIRO enter 90 in item details and 3 in material tab and 93 in invoice amount field.
Then your postings will be
GR/IR 90 debit
Material 3 debit
Vendor 93 credit.
Thanks

Price Difference GL During MIRO

We have a scenario where we receive Invoice for a material (with MAP) after some time of GR for e.g., 10 to 15 days of GR. Mean while we consume some of the stocks already received. When we post invoice (MIRO) with some price changes to PO price, system checks the stock overview and posts the proportionate amount to Material account and Price Difference account (PRD), which is a standard behavior of SAP. But, we dont want the amount to be posted to PRD. We want to post the entire amount to material account only.
Can anybody suggest the workaround solution for this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bharathi

Hi
Another process, though manual would be, to activate the Material Tab in MIRO. There after, what ever, quantity is available in stock you can pass a debit or credit to material. However, it is not the suggested correct way as MAP will not be in propotion to existing stock quantity.

PRD-Auto Post price differences to different price difference accounts

Dear all,
As I know, in Account Automatic Posting, the transaction key PRD is for Cost price Difference.
If I want to post price differences to different price difference accounts in the case of goods receipts for different cost in purchase orders, How can I configure it?
Example, in PO, there is 2 costs: Freight (F) and Insurance(I) are key in as Condition Type.
I would like to post price difference from F to account XXX, and price difference from I to account YYY.
Can I configure like this?
Thank you very much for your support!

Hello,
What is price difference.
Price differences arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples: goods receipts against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the standard pricedardpreis), goods issues in respect of which an external amount is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the PO price and the standard price).
Price difference in genereal will not trigger for the materials with price control V ( Moving average price) but however
Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference account
For you example, you have you are having PO with Freight (F) and Insurance(I), these are called pallned delivery costs, not Price difference,
so create two different condition type for Freight and insurance and assign two different G/L accounts for these condition types in account determination.
While posting system will hit perticular G/L acconut.

"Price difference" being journaled to "Variance Account"

Per the online help in B1 8.8, the "Price Difference Account" in the G/L Account Determination: Inventory Tab window "price differences between the base and target documents are recorded in this account."
When I create a Purchase Order for an item, then copy to an A/P Invoice and change the price, the difference between the PO price and the Invoice price is posted to the "Variance Account", not the "Price Difference Account", per the documentation. I have confirmed that the description of the "Variance Account" function is happening correctly, that is, when the price differs from the standard cost the difference is posted to the "Variance Account".
Can someone help with this?

Gordon,
I only put the "Variance Account" here for reference. My issue relates to the "Price Difference Account". Rather than a difference in price from Purchasing documents going to the "Price Difference Account", it is going to the "Variance Account".
This should be what is commonly called "Invoice Price Variance". The "Variance Account" is used for what is commonly called the "Purchase Price Variance". It appears in 8.8 that both variances are going to the same account even though documentation implies differently.
The following exerpt from the online documentation is not how the system is working:
"Price Difference Account
Used in purchasing transactions only. For certain scenarios, price differences between the base and target documents are recorded in this account."
To recreate this scenario (Invoice Price Variance),
1) Put two different accounts in "Administration | Setup | Financials | G/L Account Determination" on the inventory tab under "Variance Account" and "Price Difference Account."
2) Enter a Purchase Order for a Standard Cost Item enter a Qty of 1 and Price of $1,000.
3) Copy the Purchase Order to an Invoice and change the price to $900.
The journal entry that is created includes a $100 entry to the "Variance Account" set up above.
The alternate variance (Purchase Price Variance) can be recreated as follows:
1) Set the standard cost of an item to $1,000
2) Enter a Purchase Order for the Standard Cost Item enter a Qty of 1 and Price of $900.
3) Copy the Purchase Order to an Invoice and do not change the price.
The journal entry that is created includes a $100 entry to the "Variance Account" again.
These two scenarios should post to different accounts as described in the online help under G/L Account Determination.

Hello!
        For Material Movement with price difference, i find that most of the transactions posted in reply to this thread do not allow us to enter the amount externally.
        You can use movement type 521 for posting a movement with price difference, by first issuing the material to the cost center and then receiving it by T. Code MIGO ->Goods Reciept -> Others and movement type 521.
        If you find this helpful, please reward me with points!

MIRO Price difference book in Inventory acount

Hi,
When we book an invoice via MIRO, the amount difference between the PO and the invoice is book in the inventory account and do not hit our P&L variance account. Does anybody know which setting should be corrected so that we hit the P&L account for differences.
I've already checked OBYC for PRD and our account for variance is set up there.
Points will be awareded for help!
Thanks a lot
Martin

Hi
If price control is V in material master and if the stock balance is more than the invoiced quantity, then it will hit Inventory account only. If stock balance is less than the invoiced quantity, then the difference will be proportionately divided between Price variance and Inventory so that Inventory value is not unduly overpriced.

Price Difference Account being hit while making AP credit Memo

Hello Experts,
Price Difference Account is being hit while creating AP Credit Memo. I am creating an independent AP Credit Memo (i.e. without any base document). After posting A/P Credit Memo when I look at the Journal Entry it shows 99.43% of amount goes to Price Difference Account and the rest 0.57% goes to Stock account.
Help required please.
Thanks & Regards,
Edited by: Shahzad Nazir on Jan 19, 2011 5:54 PM

Hi Nazir,
This entry may have resulted because once you created the GRPO say for item A, the stock would have been consumed in production. And once you created Invoice and after that when you created credit memo, the system could not find the stock so it posted the difference in price difference account. Please run inventory posting list of the items in grpo to check the same.
Thanks,
Joseph

Price Difference and Revaluation Accounts

Hi gurus,
Please tell me that, when system will hit Price Difference Accounts and Revaluation Accounts???
Thank YOu

Hi Gverma
Please note that price difference would happen on the following
1) If there is a difference between your PO and Invoice price, because GR/IR posting would always happen on PO price only, when you do the invoice verification and there is a differnce, system would post to the price difference to the extent of stock cosnumed ( if you have stock then system would post to inventory account)
2) regarding revlauation account, when there is difference in your Standard cost estimate with previous month, system posts the difference between current SCE and previous month SCE on the stock.
3) I am not sure, when you do a material to material transfer also system may post to price difference.

MIRO behaviour on qty and price

Hi Consultant,
Need advice and confirmation on below scenario during MIRO if my understanding is correct.
1) scenario 1
PO 100 unit at $1
GR 100 unit at $1
IR    40 unit at $1'
during GR
dr inventory 100
cr gr/ir 100
during IR, system will post despite different from GR. System will treat it like partial
cr vendor 40
dr gr/ir 40
correct?
2) scenario 2
PO 100 unit at $1
GR 100 unit at $1
IR    40 unit at $2 (in vendor invoice stated $2)
during GR
dr inventory 100
cr gr/ir 100
during IR, due to price difference, the difference will go to prd
cr vendor 80
dr gr/ir 40
dr prd 40
3) scenario 3
PO 100 unit at $1
GR 100 unit at $1
IR   120 unit at $1 (in vendor invoice stated 120 unit)
during GR
dr inventory 100
cr gr/ir 100
during IR, if quantity more than GR, i cannot change quantity as need to set off completely with GR. The balance i need to book where?
cr vendor 120
dr gr/ir 100
cr to where ? 20
Thanks

Hi consultant,
meaning if GR 50 unit but IR vendor invoice is 60 unit, we still need to post 60.
in this case :
migo
dr inventory 50
cr gr/ir 50
miro
dr gr/ir 60
cr vendor 60
1) system will post despite gr/ir different by 10? system will still create 57# document despite gr/ir mismatch?
2) mr11 is to clear the dicrepancy on gr/ir account?
thanks
rgds
