Price control "V" for Finished Material

Hi,
In implementation project i have created ZFIN for finished material type.And given Price control "S". But as per client reqirement i have to change that " S" into "V".
Is there any effect for those material which already have been valuated with price control "S"? Can i proceed?

hi
generally the valuation is kept S for finished goods
as the price is updated from production and not from sales, so u cant keep the MAP as the production cost varies as per the change in cost of raw material
i think u should tell this to ur client
either if u want to change the price control from S to V
You can make this change at any time. The moving average price (which until now has been updated for informational purposes only) replaces the standard price and is used for valuation from now on.

Price control indicator for finished material

Dear Experts,
Any one can please clarify on this..
Can we maintain price control indicator for Finished Product V as well as S
Out of the above two either one may be statistical. Considering S as a statistical I need to update price which is having control as S by releasing the std.cost estimate. Is there is any configuration for this.
Please help on this.
Thanks and Regards
Sivakumar Subramanian

Hi Siva Kumar,
Generally we maintain Finished material at Standard price . In turn system will update also moving average price for the same material . so both can be achieved by maintaining standard price in material master.

Price Change Document for Finished Good

Dear Expert,
I want to take a report to list down all the documents that cause to Moving Average price of a finished good.
Ex: I have a finished good FG1 whose price indicator is Standard Price.
In MM03 when I check the moving average price of the material is updated regularly. I would like to know from where the system is picking the values for updating the MAP of the FG1.
Is there any report to generate the MAP change.
Please Help
thanks

HI,
For this use oms2 t.code in that see for fert material type what is the price control maintained for fert material type.
if for fert material type in standard we are using "s" if 'v" is thier then it is calculated like that.
so if 'v" is thier then you have to change it as "s" and save then try it once agian.
thanking you.

Price variance distributed for structured material

Hello,
Where can I customize this option: price variance distributed for structured material?
In question is field DRSEG-XVPAS, I would like to understand how it is influenced.
Iu2019ve tried looking for it but with no results.
Thank you,
Helena
Edited by: helena teixeira on Jul 4, 2008 1:50 PM

Hi,
Take an easy way, you can go to the PO with t-code ME23N, at tab page PO history of the item detail, you can find the price variance for the item.
Or you can use t-code MB5S to display the multi-POs' price variance report!

IDOC for finished Material transfer

Hello Experts,
Can anyone help me to find out the idoc which suits to my requirement.
I want to send an idoc to some third party system which contain information related to finished material.
Suppose we have created purchase order in sap thru me21n then we can use ORDERS idoc to post to third party.
But through standard po we can create idoc for semifinished material and not for finished material.
In tcode MIGO we are converting that semifinished material into finished material and I want to capture this data into idoc and want to send it to third party.
Can any body suggest which idoc shall i use.
(I want to send this info Mat_Cod,Mat_Plant,Mat_Sto_Loc,Stk_Box,Stk_Quantity,Stk_Unit,Mat_Name,Mat_Batno)
Regards,
Jayesh.

U can use either INVCON message type with IDOC type as INVCON01 or 02
or
Message Type MBGMCR with IDOC type MBGMCR01/02/03

REM profile for finished material and its raw material

Dear Experts
My question is ,for a repetitive manufacturing scenario
1) We are maintaining REM profile finished material . Is it necessary to maintain REM profile for its raw materials ?
2)For raw materials do we need to create the seperate REM profile which is having seperate stock determination rule ?
Regards ,
Vishwas.K

Dear Vishwas,
1.REM profile assignment is required only for the materials for which production confirmation will be made through T code MFBF or
MF42N.
2.For stock determination rule check in control data 2 in the REM profile itself. This setting is linked to the REM profile and further to
the goods movements posting for the raw materials.(check this setting in T code OSP2).

Price control for ML & Batch valution

Hi,
We are implementing ECC 6.0 with IS Mill in an integrated steel plant. They manufacture Hot rolled, Cold rolled and Galvanized flat steel products starting with hot briquette iron. All production is in-house. The product structure is multi level. We have proposed to use multi level variant configuration (from the slab stage onwards) since there are a huge number of variants of the products that a customer may order. Thus a single configurable material number can represent thousands of variants. It is primarily a make-to-order scenario with mass production.. However there is considerable movement of materials across sales order segments and plant stock due to business constraints. A basic requirement of the client is the need to analyze cost on the basis of the characteristics of a variant (e.g. grade-wise, thickness-wise etc.) . They also need to know the actual cost of production for each batch. This value of the batch needs to be carried even if the batch is moved across sales order segments and plant stock.
We are proposing to use Batch valuation (which is recommended as a best practice by SAP in such scenarios) to address these requirements. However the client also needs the rollup of the variances for the previous stages of production to the next stage up to the finished product. The same is only possible with the activation of Material Ledger & Actual Costing.
However we understand that batch valuation requires the material to be valuated at moving average price V whereas for single/multi level price determination Standard price S is a must.
We request your advice whether there is any way to avoid this apparent contradiction between price control requirements of batch valuation and material ledger.
Regards
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
I agree with Umut's statement: You can use price control S for the single valaued batches.
Your scenario is very interesting to me. I am working in the Mill Products IBU at SAP and we have currently a project running in order to create more flexibility for logistics in using materials that were configured for another sales orders. In such a scenario material valuation and cost order varainace analyis suffers.
A way out of it is the use of a modified make-to-stock with batch valuation and actual costing. So it appears very similar to your scenario. We will include our scenario in a best practice for flat steel (China) which is currently under development. Would be interesting to compare with your experiences.
Since you write they want to analyze based on characteristics, also my blog in the BPX area on metals and mining industries might be of interest for you:
<a href="/people/udo.werner/blog/2007/04/11/including-product-configuration-into-analytics:///people/udo.werner/blog/2007/04/11/including-product-configuration-into-analytics
I would also invite you to write an own blog on your scenario of costing in a steel scenario and open up the discussion. I also intended to contribute with a similar topic.

Settling production variances when the price control of the material is "V

Hi,
Scenario: 1) Materials are maintained at moving average price.
                2) Production variances need to settle to material and MAP need to be adjusted.
Issue: When the closing stock of the material is less than the negative variance need to be settled from the production order   the system is giving the message "Moving average price for material is negative"
Questions: 1) What is the solution for settlement of negative variance to material when there is no stock?
                   2) Is there is any way to settle these variances to price difference account only when the stock is not available. if stock is available the variance has to adjust the stock, if not settle to the price difference account. Is there anys standard settling for this?
Advance thanks for your help

Hi Rao
You should never have Price Control V for In House made material...
That will ruin your inventory valuation forever.. Consider the eg below if your price control is V
1. Your moving price in mat master is 100 USD
2. You Mfr on Jan 1 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and at period end if Qty is lying in stock, 10 variance will also be inventorized
BUT, now consider this
1. 1. Your moving price in mat master is 100 USD
2. You Mfr on Jan 1 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and variance lying is 10 in prod order
3. You Mfr on Jan 10 @ Actual cost = 110 in Prod order and Qty = 1.
Upon GR, GR will happen @ 100 and variance lying is 10 in prod order
4. On jan 15, you consume Qty 1 and qty lying in stock is 1
5. In period end, when you do settlement, following will happen
a. For prod order 1: Qty Mfd 1 and Qty lying in stock 1 - Result: variance 10 will be inventorized.
Mvg Avg price will shoot upto 110
b. For prod order 2: Qty Mfd 1 and Qty lying in stock 1 - Result: variance 10 will be inventorized.
Mvg Avg price (MAP) will shoot upto 120
System wont check whether the qty lying in stock pertains to prod order 1 or 2... It will simply check if the Qty of prod order matches with qty lying in stock. hence, it will keep on inventorizing variance in this case.... and your MAP will touch the sky

Price control in material master.

Dear all,
How can i change the Price control key(V to S) in material master.
and what are the implication after change the price control.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Vishal Garg

Hello
In the SAP System, there are two types of price control:
Standard price & Moving average price.
These two types of price control differ in how they handle price variances resulting from goods receipts or invoice receipts.
Changing the Type of Price Control
Under certain conditions, you can change the type of price control:
From standard price to moving average price
You can make this change at any time. The moving average price (which until now has been updated for informational purposes only) replaces the standard price and is used for valuation from now on.
From moving average price to standard price
You cannot make this change in the following two cases:
If the material master record is set up as a valuation header record for a material subject to split valuation
If the standard price comes from costing and is not equal to the moving average price
If the change is possible, the moving average price becomes the standard price, which is then used for valuation.
You change the type of price control by overwriting the price control indicator in the material master record with the new indicator.
Changing the type of price control for a material does not change the value of the material stock, since in both cases the current price becomes the new price.
An example is given below:
Standard price to Moving average price
Material A
Price control: S
Moving average Price: 8
Standard Price: 10
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 1000
Now we change the material price control to 'V'. Then
Material A
Price control: M
Moving average price:10
Standard price: 10
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 1000
Moving average to standard price
Material B
Price control: V
Moving average Price: 8
Standard Price: 0
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 800
Now we change the material price control to 'S'. Then
Material B
Price control: S
Moving average price:8
Standard price: 8
Total Stock: 100
Total Stock value: 800
Hope this will clear your doubts.

Production for semi finished material

Dear gurus,
i had a scenario where semi finished material is combination of different batches,for production of semi finished material i had 6 operations in which up to 3rd operation i have 3 production lines in which each batch in the line is identified by different batch no and in 4th operation all batches are mixed and if new batch is coming into 4th operation the material which is already in 4th operation enters 5th&6th operation continously for semi finished material and enters remaining operations for finished material production .semifinished material is not stored in any place it is continously flow from 6th operation which is semi finished material to another operation which is used for producing finished material.
suppose for week i require 100 m3 of finished material , and for each batch i can produce 2 m3 in each production line ,i require 50 batches for week .the production is continous .
can i follow by creating 50 production orders each of different batch ,by creating semi finished material in 4th operation , can any one please suggest .
Thanks

Hi Jitendra,
Checking Control (OPJJ) has no relation with MRP.It is useful in the case of Plan and Production / Process Order only to find out Missing part.
Now come to MRP again.
You have a choice of only 3 type of stocks to include or exclude them during MRP run while rest of the things like (PO,PR,Reservation etc are consider by default)
Go to OPPQ and after selecting Plant go to Available Stock.You will find that options,
- Stock in Transfer
- Block Stock
- Restricted Stock.
And one more thing Reservation is not a available stock but its one kind requirement and if there is no stock then system will activate the Planning file entry and during next MRP run it will generate Planning proposal also.

Dhaval

MATERIAL LEDGER AND PRICE CONTROL V

Hi Gurus.
In a Plant I've activated material ledger and some materials have price control V. how does price control V works with material ledger? the average price is uptated at the end of the month or is updated with every receipt?
Kind Regards.

Hi Andres,
What is the price determination indicator in material master? is it 3 or 2?
Materail ledger during the Actaul Costing Run consider only the price determination indicator 3 material masters.
Generally all BOM component material masters, we should maintain price determination indicator 3 and price control S.
All other materials you can have price determination indicator 2 and price control V.

MAP for Finished and Semi Finished goods

Dear Friends,
Please let me know;
1. If Finished and Semi finsihed goods are maintained with price indicator 'S' and all are inhouse production then SAP updata moving average price or these material or not ?
2. If SAP updata MAP for finished and semi-finished, later can we change map manually or not ? if yes How ?
3. Is there any way to stop updata of map by sap in case of finsihed and semifinished goods.
Actually according to my product costing variant, I dont need any price in map of FG and SFG. Kindly give me your expert openion on this issue.
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
1. If you maintain price control S for inhouse produced finished product also, system updates moving average price with resepect stock and value of production (may be period wise production cost may be varying). But this is statistical.
2. You can change price control from S to V if you require. You need to change first in material type and then change in material master.
3. If the value is getting updated also it will have no impact. In case of product cost variant also it will get updated.
Thanks

Standard cost estimate could not be found for the material

Dear All,
We have 4 manufacturing plants and 30 sale depots. We are maintaining price control (S) for FG and SFG in Manufacturing plants,price control (V) at depots for the same material code. we are getting an error message " standard cost estimate could not be found for the material" while doing billing at depot.
Please give me suggestion.
Your suggestion should be appreciate.
Thanks in advance............
AND
My client want to see profitability at manufacturing plant level and need break up for the COGM. So how can i get the values of depot sales.
please let me know how to do........

Hai
Price control should be S for Depot also. You need to run standard cost estimate in DEPOT after entering additive cost under CK74N for frieght, excise duty etc. To transfer the standard cost from the source plant you need to make configuration in OMD9 defining the receiver and sender combination so that system can pick up the cost from source plant. This special produrement type needs to be asigned in the material masters of DEPOT under MRP 2 view.
