Moving Average Price (MAP)

Hi,
We have a requirement to send new MAP (MBEW-VERPR)
to a third party system each time change been happend to the
material MAP in a plant.
Please guide me. If it has morethan one solution let me know.
Thnaks & Regards
Prasad Raju

exact. MR21 is a manual change, while the GR is a automatic change.
You will not have any transaction that shows you all the MAP changes with date and time.
you would have to develope your own ABAP or procedure to capture all changes.
You ccould create a Z-table and copy stock and price every day. But this is still just a daily number, if the value changes more than one time during a day, you will not see it then.But you can certainly see when the price startet to jump.
I often use a mix of MR51 and Excel.
Run MR51, add coloumn for entry date, sort it in sequence of entry date.
download it to Excel.
Add a first line with quantity and value from last periods record from table MBEW and calculate the price.
Then you can start calculating the MAP for each and every line.

How to get Moving Average Price ( MAP ) & Standered Price in BW

Hi all,
I want to get the Moving Average Price ( MAP) & Standered price in BW Report.So that please suggest me
1. which Cube I have to use &
2. which datasource having that Moving Average Price ( VERPR) Field.
If having other Procedure to calculate Moving Average Price in BW .
please give me these details.
Thanks,
kiran

Hi Kiran,
0IC_C03 Cube can be used to bring the fields you require.
Please search forum post by Anil Kumar, link is not available thats why i am copying the text here.
You need to enhance the Standard DS of Infoobject 0MAT_PLANT and Infoobject 0MAT_PLANT to include these 2 fields.
And you need to enahance the 0IC_C03 cube to include 0MAT_PLANT and need to complete the mapping in all 3 Update rules for this added Infoobject.
And you need to upload the attribute data of 0MAT_PLANT as full upload every day.
In the reports , you need to dependent on Formula varibles with replacement path with standard price an MAP price attributes of 0MAT_PLANT. So if you go with these formula variables with replacement path, you should take 0MAT_PLANT characterstic into rows as a prerequiste.
If you want to avoid this prerequisite, then take a look on How to calculate with attributes values.
Other wise you need to do the calculations at 0MAT_PLANT level by a base query after every upload,and the result should be stored in TODS by APD .And then you can final report with out 0MAT_PLANT in rows upon this ODS.

How to calculate moving average price(MAP) when price variance in IV

Hi All,
My current stock for a material is 39 and MAP is 0.8 GBP.
A purchase order is created for the material for a quantity of 1 at price of 0.8 GBP per unit.
Invoice is posted for the above PO at price of 1.74 GBP.
What will be the new MAP for the material now??How to calculate MAP when there is a price variance in Invoice?
Please suggest ASAP.

Hi,
The Procedure for calculating MAP is :-
Case 1 :- PO at different price
If in Material Master your MAP is 0.8GBP & closing stock of 30Nos, value is 24GBP
In PO if the price is 0.9GBP & qty is 10nos, then after Goods Receipt Total Value of the GR i.e. Qty * Price + any other delivery cost will be added to the material stock value. Qty is also updated. New Total Value / New Stock Qty will be MAP.
In this case Qty received 10 & price is 0.9 that means value would be 9GBP.
Total Value becomes 24GBP (Present Stock) + 9GBP (Goods Receipt) = 33GBP
Total Qty becomes 30Nos + 10Nos (Goods Receipt) = 40Nos
MAP becomes = 33GBP / 44Nos = 0.75
Case 2 : Invoice Posting (MIRO) at different price than PO
While doing MIRO is we post at different price system will check whether sufficient stock posted in GR is available. In the above case it is 10Nos,
If it is there, then the above logic as in case 1 will take place
If not available, to the extent of stock availability system will post the different value & adjust MAP & remaining is posted to Price Difference Account.
In your case it would be like this :
1. MAP 0.8 for 30Nos (Value would be 24GBP)
2. Invoice Posting 1.74GBP for 1No. That means value would be 24GBP + 1.74GBP = 25.74GBP
Qty would be 30+1 = 40
MAP = 25.74 / 40 = 0.64GBP
Hope this clarifies your doubt

Moving average price (MAP) became Zero(0) for one material

Gurus,
Please tell me what could set MAP to zero for a material?
Thanks,
Kishore

HI,
Please check whether any body has transferred material from on location to another free of charge ot at the price 0.01,
as the MAP will be become zero by two reasons
1) any user have made the GR or Invoice for that material for at 0.01 price.In case of several invoices with too low a price the total value can reduce to such an extent that the MAP goes towards zero
2) or you may not have any stock in your location's.
please check the MB52 repost whether any body did for 0.01 price for that material , you can increase you MAP with Transactions MR21/MR22 ,increase the price/stock value again - if required.
Furthermore, you can define tolerance limits in the Customizing for the MAP price variance (Transaction OMC0, tolerance key VP) this is for your precautions in future.
PLease see the previosu forum post on MAP they might help you in your scenario.

Automatic MAP ( Moving average Price) in CDHDR - How to capture?

Hi All,
I have a requirement in which changes to Moving Average price ( MAP) needs to be send to another legacy system through custom MATMAS IDOC. Now when I make a change to MAP through MR21 or MM02 these changes are written in BDCP table and a change pointers are created and hence i am able to send them through IDOC. But when for a material the MAP changes through GR,GI Oor PO changes in such cases the MAP change being an automatic change it doesn't get captured in CDHDR and CDPOS table and hence no change pointers are created. I know CDDHR and CDPOS captures manual changes and not automatic changes. Could anyone please explain me in details how this problem can be resolved.
Thanks ,
Ameesha

Hello,
I doubt a GR,GI or PO can change the Moving Average Price.
It should be only through MR21.
Please check again.

Moving average price not calculated properly

Hi,
For a consumable material moving average price(MAP) is getting calculated wrongly.
There are 2 goods receipts taken in Jan'08 and Feb'08 at a unit price of 1250 and 1450 INR.
Then there are around 10 Goods issues for a cost centre, Mvt type 201 taken for next few months.
The MAP value has been calculated properly after the Goods issues.
Again there was a goods recipt in Oct'08 for 1275 INR.
The goods issue done in Nov'08 has created a problem and it has calculated wronlgy i.e. instead of Rs. 800, the system has calculated issue price as Rs.3500.
No value has been changed in MR21. No PO's has been created between these days.
Can anyone help us...??
Regards,
Ramya

Hi Ramya,
You have informed in your thread that "for a consumable material..", If a material is procured for direct consumption, the consumption accounts in Financial Accounting are posted when the goods receipt is entered . The total quantity and value of existing stocks of the material are not affected. There is no Goods Issue.
Now, if you procure the material for stock, then changes in Material Valuation due to goods receipts and invoice receipts are carried out automatically (ofcourse manually also) when the relevant transaction is posted.
The extent to which the stock value changes depends on the sequence in which the goods receipts and invoice receipts are posted. The SAP System allows for both possibilities:
- When goods are received before the invoice, the stipulations in the purchase order are used as the basis for posting.
- When the invoice is received before the goods, the details on the invoice are used as the basis for posting.
So, please look into the Invoices and the relevant GR/IR clearing account details. You may get a clue there.
Regards,
Narayana.

Moving average prices and std prices

hi friends,
i have a doubt abt prices...
which will b assigned for raw materials-standard price? or avg moving price? and why?
if possible explain clearly about avg.moving price and std.price
for spit valuation what price we will use??
help me out..
thanks in advance...
venkat

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
We recommend that you only use price control V for materials procured
externally. Materials produced in-house should be subject to a
standard price control.
Generally all raw materials (ROH), spare parts (ERSA), traded goods (HAWA) etc. are assigned as moving average price (MAP) because of the accounting practice of accurately valuating the inventory of such materials. These materials are subject to the purchase price fluctuations on a regular basis.
The semi-finished goods (HALB) and finished products (FERT) are valuated with standard price because of the product costing angle. If these were to be MAP controlled, then finished/semi-finished product valuation would fluctuate due to data entry errors during backflushing of material and labour, production inefficiencies (higher cost) or efficiencies (lower cost). This is not a standard accounting and costing practice
For Split valuated material it is recommended to use Moving average price

Freight accrual - Stock Transport Order - Moving Average Price.

Hi all
   I am trying to add delivery costs (freight accrual) to Stock transport order, where the material in receiving plant is valuated at Moving Average Price (MAP). So, the freight cost is getting rolled over into the material price in the receving plant because of MAP valuation.
    But my client doesnot want that. Instead we want the freight accrual to post to a expense or COGS freight account. Is there way to control this when material is valuated at MAP in receiving plant?
Thanks
Vamsi

Currently, with the outbound delivery for STO and PGI, the following the accouting document is generated.
Cr Inventory Account (sending plant)   10000
Dr Inventory Account (receiving plant) 10200
Cr Freight Clearing Account                       200
Where as I want the accounting document as follows when outbound delivery is created.
Cr Inventory Account (sending plant)   10000
Dr Inventory Account (receiving plant) 10000
Dr COGS Freight Account                          200
Cr Freight Clearing Account                       200

Moving average price and standard price

Dear All,
Its simple question can any one explains me what is the difference between moving average price and standard price and how the posting will happen with these two price controls and what will get updated.

Dear Tiru,
There are two types of price control as below:
a)Moving Average Price (MAP):
-If PO and or Invoice price was differ from material master record, the difference was posting
to stock account. Therefore the valuation price will change.
b) Difference between a PO price or invoice price and the material master are posted to price
difference account(PRD). As a result, the price in material master remain same.
Example:
Material Master Record:
Total Qty: 10, Total Value 20, Price 2
Scenario:
PO: 10pcs at 2.50 EUR/PC
Good receipt 10 pc
Invoice 10 pc at 2.50 eur/pc
a) MAP:
Posting:
Stock Account GR 25 +
GR/IR Clearing GR 25 -, IR 25 +
Vendor Account IR 25 -
New Material Master ,Result:
Total Qty = 20
Total value = 45
Price = 2.25
b) Standard Price:
Posting:
Stock Account GR 20 +
GR/IR Clearing GR 25 -, IR 25 +
Vendor Account IR 25 -
Price difference Account(PRD) GR 5 +
New Material Master ,Result:
Total Qty = 20
Total value = 40
Price = 2.00
Hope this help.

Production Planning at Moving Average Price

We do very little manufacting, in fact, I would call it "re-packaging". All our compnay does is take products from one package size and convert them to another package size, for example, we take bulk gallons and repackage it to 5 gallon pails. The only materials involved is a 5 gallon pail and the 5 gallons of material that go into that pail. We want the finished products moving average price (MAP) to be equal to the MAP of the inputs. I know that finished products should not be carried at MAP, but we manufacture on such a small scale that I don't think we will have huge issues carrying finished goods at MAP. We are not interested in knowing what the product cost vs. what the product should have cost to produce, all we want to happen is have the finished product=cost of inputs.
Is there anyone that has done this? If so, what is the best way to configure our system.
Thanks in advance,
Scott

The basic issue with moving average price for manufactured items is getting all the costs on the production/process orders before the finished items is consumed out of stock. For example, make 10 items with costs of $100, so moving average price is $10 each. 9 of the finished items are then consumed leaving 1 in stock. An additional cost is incurred on the production/process order of $50 (i.e. missed goods issue, COGI error, etc.) the single item in stock will now have a moving average price of $60 ($10 + $50). If the finished item is fully consumed then the $50 goes to a production variance account.
With standard price you consume for the same price (subject to periodic recalcalution) and analyis your production variances.

VMI and moving average price

Dear all
Please help us.
We will use moving average price as stock evaluation.
Also, we manage all inventory is VMI stock.
Our business process is the following procedure.
1. We will increase consignment stock (VMI) without reference to purchase order.
2. We will input sales order and allocate it to VMI stock.
3. We will post goods issue, movement type 601-K.
As you know, accounting documents post GR/IR at this time. Unfortunately, SAP does not calculate moving average price (MAP) in material master. ie. moving average price is zero.
We would like to calculate moving average price because almost stock is VMI.
How do you customize SAP?
Best regards.

You have to add one more step to handle this scenario as per my knowledge
which is before you issue the stock using 601 K you have to take the stock in you own inventory and than issue using movement type 601 not 601 k.
As per the std SAP the 601 K M type will never update the value because that's not are stock
you can see the setting below
601     K     L                   2             VAX
601     K     L          WA03     2     GBB     VAX
601     K     L     E              2             VKA
601     K     L     E     WA03     2     GBB     VKA
601     K     L     P              2             VKA
601     K     L     P     WA03     2     GBB     VKA
601     K     L     V              2             VAY

Making Moving average price a mandatory field in MM01

Hello,
I've tried to make MBEW-VERPR a mandatory field in TC MM01, but with no success.
I tried using field selection (OMSR), screen variant (SHD0), making system message M3 131 an Error - nothing worked.
Please advice.
Thanks,
Dikla

Dear Lakshman,
You are right in what you are saying, and to explain the reason why I'm trying to make this field mandatory, I'll describe a scenario:
You have a Make To Order purchased material and you received an order for this material from one of your customers. You go out to purchase this material.
When you do GR for this PO, the PO price does not change the moving average price (MAP) of this material - it changes the sales order MAP of this material.
If, for some reason, the customer cancels his order at this point, you will do transfer posting to this material and change it from sales order stock to own stock.
We do this transfer posting with movement type 414 and that movement does not change the MAP of the material.
Now we have stock for this material, but with MAP zero.
If now we receive another customer order, we don't have to go out for purchase because we have this material in stock.
If we will use MvT 413 to allocate the stock to the sales order,
it will be allocated with price zero.
In this case, when we'll post the outbound delivery, no financial document will be created because the price of the material was zero.
I want to prevent this situation.
If the field is mandatory, even a price of 0.01 will be enough for the creation of financial document when I post a material document.

Updating Material Master Moving Average Price using BAPI

Hi,
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.
when we are executing this bapi with inputs, it is showing data updated or created but when we are checking it in MAterial Master the data (MOving Price ) is not getting updated.
Please advise,
Thanks.

I am trying to use BAPI_MATVAL_PRICE_CHANGE to change the price of a material in material master
(The moving average price [MAP] in Accounting View 1)
Using the BAPI, I enter
--> RFC target are
-> Material No.
-> Valuation Area
--> Prices table (I enter the new price that i want)
when I run the BAPI, i get error message (This can be seen in the returns table)
ID --> CKMLSENDPRICE
MESSAGE NUMBER --> 701
DETAILS --> No customizing data for Valuation Area XXXX found
PLease advise.

Moving average price in case of goods receipt with free of charge

Hello everyone,
Need some inputs......
Sometimes we receive materials from suppliers free of charge (e.g. warranty replacement) u2013 moving average goes down u2013 worst case 0,01 EUR/piece. This causes problems in government reporting and export documentation EX1 and clearance/pro-forma invoice) for deliveries to field engineers (Order type ZIS1, ZIS3 u2013 item cat. ZICA), because moving average price is used for the values in government reporting and on the invoices. In government reporting and on invoices we need to state a true value of the part.On the other hand, the value warehouse stock is depending on the moving average cost as well.Could you please let me know, how to handle such receipts from the supplier to have a correct stock value and correct values on invoices and government reporting?
Thanks
Deepthi...

Hello Deepthi,
It depends on your company policy. If you want to valuate the material along with the material purchased handled in moving average price, free consignment will bring down the MAP for the material.
In that case, you can revaluate the material to the original price in MR21 transaction.
If you are not going to handle the materials received free of charge along with the purchased material, you can go with another material code, with non valuated material type.
But i guess, no company will be asking for another material code. So go for revaluation after the receipt of free consignment.
Regards

Moving average price
