MM closing period problem when material ledger is activated

Hi!
the MM period is opened for period 7,2010, now we want to close that period and open period 10,2010 ( this is sand box system only, so no one used from last 3 months), but when I am executing MMP to close period 8 ( as we have to close periods till 10th period) , system is giving erros saying key duplicate records are not allowed in table "ckmlkev" ( as material ledger is activated), in this table already periods are existed till 9,2010 for all valuation areas.
Now how to close 7th period in MM ( MMPV)?
can any one suggest alternative ways?

Hi,
As it's your sand box and you don't need to fix the root cause of the error, try to execute MMPV with option "Close period only".

  • Standard cost estimation after goods movement when material ledger is activ

    Hi!
    our client is activated material ledger, for some materials standard cost estimation is done till marking but not released.
    goods movements have been posted for those materials.
    Now system is not allowing to release the standar price for those material in the current period, as material ledger expects same price for entrie period.
    what is the alternative way to update the standard price for those materials ( with out reversing the goods movements).

    Hi Ramesh,
    When you are using Material Ledger, after goods movemnets for materials, no need to change the standard cost estimate as Actual costing run will take care to derive the PUP price.
    If there is no standard cost estimation release for sold materials (e.g.FG), you will get an error message duirng the billing document release to accounting. To aviod this error, if you are using split valuation (valuation types) and mixing ratios (CK91N & CK94), try with the below steps:
    Create a new valuation type for the same material
    Crate CK11N & CK94,
    Run CK11N
    Run CK24.
    Then release the billing document.
    Let me know if you need more details.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Dump when execute MMPV (Material Ledger is actived)

    Hi experts,
    This is my scenario:
    - We are testing in a Development system (No productive system)
    - Material Ledger is actived since 12-2011
    - No Material Ledger period end closing made in 12-2011
    When we execute MMPV the system shows the dump:    SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC
    We applied the sap note: 1123034 - MMPV: SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC error in SAPLMLCCS, but the dump continues.
    I checked the table ckmlkev and I saw registers to Company Code 0200 Period 2 and Year 2012, however if I check OMSY transaction, I saw only Company Code 0200 Period 1 and Year 2012.
    There is something extra to do?
    Thanks in advance for  your help,
    José Luis

    Hi,
    This short dump is produced when the system tries to insert a new
    entry in table CKMLKEV but a duplicate entry already exists in the same
    table.
    CKMLKEV indicates in which period which cost component structure is
    used for the actual cost component split. CKMLKEV entries are created
    by MMPV. Their existance for these periods indicates that the period was
    shifted already by MMPV.
    What you can do now is the following: please check the period
    status in ML.
    If the status is undefined, then delete the CKMLKEV entry and re-run
    MMPV.
    If the status is period opened (or higher), then you have to reset
    the MM period.

  • GR/IR account problem with material ledger

    Hi,
    I just found an issue as effect of material ledger implementation.
    after the material ledger is active, when we post a transaction in foreign currency (invoice receipt), the LC 2 amount of GR/IR account is somehow different from the document amount, and the difference is transferred into Material price difference account that we maintain in OBYC - PRD transaction.
    because of this, the LC2 amount of  GR/IR account can't be cleared.
    any suggestion, please?
    thanks,
    Nasikhin

    hi,
    It will affect your valuation for the document, which are still open..
    You shd run this only after closing all documents and completing whole MM cycle..
    Once this is run, you can't go back and make settlements...
    So, beware...

  • Period Status in material ledger

    Dear Gurus,
    I am confused by period status in material ledger.  Now, when displaying material price analysis with CKM3, period status is quantities and values entered. However, I checked MB51 and invoice. There is no material posting in the period. Even for some new material without any postings, the status is quantities and values entered as well. I wonder how the system sets the status. Could you please give a hint on it?
    Thank and Regards,
    Rebe Z.

    Hi Rebe,
    To see the transactions and documents for ML category in t-code CKM3 report  i.e., Beginning Inventory--> choose "Expand sub tree" and choose the corresponding line. I guess these , period status quantities and values entered entries are  for New period opening. Whenever  the New period is opened, for New materials also, Material Ledger document will be created and updated in Material Price analysis report. The Material ledger records the following categories of data and the system generates ML documents automatically :
    01.     Beginning Inventory
    02.     Price change
    03.     Receipts
    04.     Other receipts/consumption
    05.     Cumulative inventory
    06.     Consumption
    Also whenever Price determination for Material Master is changed from 02 to 03 or vice-versa, ML documents will be generated automatically and updates in Material Price Analysis report-t-code-CKM3.

  • Preventing posting in leading ledger by closing period in non leading ledge

    Is it possible?
    I have 24 periods in non leading ledger and want to prevent posting in the leading ledger if the posting period is closed in non leading ledger. Currently when I try to post thru FB50L, for closed period, if I mention the non leading ledger, the document is not posted. But when no ledger group is mentioned. the document is posted in both ledgers.
    Thanks for your thoughts on this.
    Regards,

    You have to define a separate Fiscal year variant to non leading ledger using with the following path

  • Glasspane event handling problem when window is deactivated - activated

    Hello everyone!
    I have a strange problem concerning glasspane used to block user input. The situation is the following:
    I use a JDesktopPane inside a JFrame. In the desktop pane there are placed multiple JInternalFrames. I use a JPanel as glasspane with dummy listeners to block the controls in one of the internal frames. This all works without problems.
    Now if the JFrame becomes inactive (for example the user switches to a browser window) and the I go back to the java application (frame becoming active again), the blocking no longer works. This also happens if a JDialog pops up - so in general this happens if the DesktopPanes host window becomes inactive and active again.
    The glass pane is still there (see it as it is translucent coloured), gets the events (I can see this from debug output in the dummy listeners) but also the controls underneath the glass panes do react now to user input.
    I already tried to watch the JFrame with a WindowListener and reinstall (a new) glass pane when it becomes active again - no effect. Now I am really helpless - maybe there is something very obvious I am doing wrong?
    I appreciate any hint :-) Thank you in advance!

    New problem :-) Also this worked to block the user input, I now get these:

  • Material Ledger not activated in both plants within the same company

    Hi Experts,
    I would like to ask what would be the impact if we activate ML only in one plant. The company code has 2 plants assigned to it. We are currently implementing transfer pricing but only to one plant. What is the impact of activating the PC valuation to other plant under the same company code?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Usually to add transportation cost or freight to the material cost at the time of STO we will use the seperate pricing procedure & condition types.
    same way we can do one thing..
    1)define the seoerate pricing procedure for STO
    2)include condiion types for mfg cost, transport cost, margin etc etc & define the condition types in such a way that this all condition type values are get added to inventory.
    3)create STO & give values for all condition types in STO
    4)create delivery PGI
    5)create excise invoice
    6)create GRN at receiving plant.
    hope its clear.

  • Post closing entry in Material Ledger

    During running og Material ledger last night, in CKMLCP, we ran post closing entry before we release the cost through CKME. When I tried to release tcode CKME and CK40N, the system gave error message as below:
    Price changes for material 200001  is not possible
    Message no. C+811
    Diagnosis
    You want to change the price or release planned prices for material 200001 with valuation type  in valuation area 2100. You have, however, already entered actual data or performed a single-level price determination in the period concerned. The status of the material in the period is Quantities and Values Entered.
    Price determination indicator 3 assumes that the standard price remains constant throughout the period, so that all movements can be valuated preliminarily with the same standard price.  Therefore, you can only change the standard price at the beginning of a period (i.e. as long as no actual data was entered).
    System Response
    The system does not allow the price changes or the release of planned prices for this material in this period.
    Procedure for System Administration
    In the future, to automatically release your planned prices upon creation of new actual data you can allow dynamic price release in Customizing for Actual Costing/Material Ledger.
    How I can release my standard cost for period 01.05.2010 to 31.05.2010. Please help
    Edited by: Ahmed EL Zain on May 1, 2010 10:49 AM

    Hey,
    What you described is the standard system behaviour.
    The price change or release of a cost estimate should always be the
    first transaction in a new period, when Material Ledger is active.
    Once period status = 30, the standard price cannot be release or
    changed. For more details please see note 190707.
    The only possible workarounds are as below:
    - postponing the costing release to next month
    - reversing transactions and usage of note 574930
    - using the option LTPC　from note 555176

  • Effect of Activating Cross company costing in Material Ledger

    Hi all,
    We are live with ML from seven years and now we want to activate cross company costing. I would like to know if there will be an impact of this in the material ledger side. If anyone has comeacross this situation please share your ideas about this.
    Thanks,
    Santosh

    thanq for reply.
    IF I can update standard price in 3 views, how can i see three standard prices in different views?
    I am facing another problem also here.
    we have 3 company codes and 3 plants like VN01,SG01,IN01.
    When I am doing standard cost estimation for IN01 with group costing variant for group valuation, I am getting error "Object was not costed", but where as If I use standard costing varaint ( PPC1), I am not getting any error, system is showing correct standard cost estimation?
    Where as If I use group costing variant for other company codes, I am not getting any error.
    Is there any customizing missed regarding standard cost estimation, when material ledger is activated?

  • MR11- The price for material && will be negative - Material Ledger Active

    Hi All,
    The material ledger is active and user is getting error message "The price for material && will be negative" while doing MR11. I found the below SAP Notes:
    sapnote_0000010757_FAQ MR11, clear GRIR clearing account
    sapnote_0000174684_Procedure for error C+121C+131, price
    sapnote_0000320941_Posting in spite of negative price
    sapnote_0000790426_MR11 Functionality
    I found SAP Note: 174684_Procedure for error C+121C+131, price , but it seems to give a temporary solution of changing the price using MR21 / MR22. The error has become very frequent.
    I appreciate, if someone can help me know the pros and cons of using MR21/MR22 transaction when material ledger is active, because I am not able to figure out where will the MR21 / MR22 transaction have impacts in MM and CO?
    Is there anyway to do away with the recurrence of Error message permanently?
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Sagar K.

    Hi:
    This error occurs when PO price does not match with Moving average price in Material price.
    First check the price in PO and in Moving average price in Material Master. If the Moving average price is less than PO, go the T.code MR21 to change the moving average price to PO Price.
    Also check T.code MRBR - it will show why the invoice is blocked.
    Please let me know if you need more information.
    Assign points if useful.

  • Material Ledger Valuation

    Is it possible to have 2 or more standard prices for a single material e.g. one price for imported material and one for in-house produced material. If it is possible then what will be the effect of this when material ledger is activated?

    Hi,
    Yes we can use more than one standard price for a single material by using split valuation.
    You can use split valuation with Material Ledger:
    Assume that two valuation types are required.
    Valuation Type-1 for imported material
    Valuation Type-2 for in-house produced material
    Material master price control =S for Valuation Type-1,
    Material master price control =S for Valuation Type-2,
    Material master price control =V without valuation type (header level).
    Price determination indicator = 3 for header as well as each valuation type.
    Good receipts and Goods Issue will happen for each valuation type.
    At month end after Actual Costing Run. the material valuation will happen:
    Header level (weighted MAV of both the valuation types)
    For Val type-1(weighted MAV of this valuation type only)
    For Val type-2(weighted MAV of this valuation type only)
    Price variances of valuation type will be carry forward to next level, if this product is consumed at next level.
    You can find the Actual costs at each valuation type level in MM03 or CKM3 or CKM3N.
    Hope the above example provides some inputs to you.
    Please check and confirm.
    Thanks and Regards
