Price difference in miro

Dear All,
I have 2 scenario to book the price difference and I would like to know both impact.
Say this is based on standard price.
1) when the invoice amount different from the GR amount, I change the amount field in miro line item for each PO line item that already GR which got difference. The difference go to price difference account.
2) I do not care the PO line item which already GR but only manually book in price difference account in GL account tab for the difference between invoice and gr.
As the price difference will go to copa, may i know what is the implication or result for case 1 and case 2?
Thanks

Hi
There are n number of ways of doing things, In both of your above mentioned cases the differential amount will be debited to PRD or stock aaccount depending on your stock coverage.Had it been PRD as you say the amount will be fetched to Controlling as there is a definite expense recognised .Had there been Stock account there would be no amount transfer to COPA ,but eventually when you issue the material it is the expense account will will be debited and the amount will be fetched to Controlling .Thus in both the cases the accounting impact is the same it is only the realization time is different.

Distributing Price Differences posted with MIRO to production orders

Dear guru ,
I know DUV that distribute consumption differences from a physical inventory to production orders.
After the production order consumptions (mvt. Type 261) for these materials we posted the prices differences with MIRO between the purchase order price and the invoice.
Does exist a tool like DUV (or other) in order to distribute these differences in price to the production orders that have consumed these materials ?
Thanks in advance

To me it looks like the material ledger is the standard tool for doing what you want to do (although it doesn't actually post price differences from purchases to production order but rather distributes them to the receiving materials on the level of the actual price calculation)

While posting MIRO price difference account is not determimg for price vari

Hi Sapients,
Please solve the production issue which we have faced yesterday while doing month end closing
In one P.O 4 items are there,User has posted entries in below sequence
Material type is TRADING GOODS
1)first MIRO with QTY 10 @100$ each,Later
2)MIGO has done with QTY 10 @100$
Raw Material account -
1000$
to GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
1000$
2)User has reverse the MIRO transaction with QTY 10 @ 100$ each.(with refer to step1)
3)Finally he post MIRO with QTY 10 @ 90$ each, so here ther is no qty variance has come only price variance has come, so when posting the difference is not going to price difference and the entry is paasing like this
GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
900$
TO Vendor 900$
If u see in step 2 GR/IR having 1000$, but in step 3 while MIRO posting GR/IR as 900$ so for the remaing balance 100$ not going to price variance .I Belive the entry in step will be like this
GR/IR CLEARING ACCOUNT -
1000$
TO Vendor 900$
TO Price difference 100$.
Kindly give solution why it is not going to price difference it was happening only for item 2 & 3 only for 40 iem it is posting correctly to price difference account.Please advice me why system behavig differently for each item.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Padmasri,
Thanks for your explanation. Ok. if the price is maintained in S, does that mean the price difference would get posted only to PRD. In other words, if price indicator is V, is that the only time when the price difference gets posted to stock account. In case if there is no sufficient stock or if there is negative stock at that time, that's when the amount would get posted to stock loss or gain account. Please suggest if I've understood the concept right.
Hi,
The PRD will trigger when the standard price maintained in the material mater record is different from the price in MIGO . The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock )
will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue. Thanking you
You had suggested: The other chance is the material is maintained with MAP and MIRO done before GR ,The value of the quntity (not available in stock ) will get posted to PRD. I hope this will resolve your issue.
You are right: I forgot to mention that the price indicator is V. The other point is we purchase the materials from an internal vendor, as and when the materials are dispatched from the main storehouse in Sri Lanka, there is an advice that is created in the system and that is interfaced and parked in the system. However, normally until the GR is done IV will not happen. But there could be a chance, as the advice gets created within 24 hours. However the material to reach the godown in our warehouse will take more than 24 hours as the goods have to be shipped from SL, so IV is possible before GR.

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.

Enter Text in Price difference line item in MIRO

Hello,
My user wants to enter text in price difference account line item in MIRO. I tried to do it in MIRO simulation by doubl click on line item. But it does not show as we normally see in FI documents.
Please advise how can I enter text in price difference line item while doing MIRO. Since this account gets posted automatically.
Regards,
Tapan

Hi,
You can create substitution with exit in GGB1/ OBBH
In exit, give a popup for this price difference line item and in that popup user can enter the text and then fill that text in the line item.
Your ABAper should be able to do it.

MIRO R payment block without price difference

Dear gurus,
I'm stuck in the middle of a problem: please help me solving it.
I've done a MIRO related to a good receipt: payment lock has been set to "R" value in FI document. Invoice value is the same of good receipt value: no price difference at all.
What I immediatly check is this:
1) MRBR shows "X" in Blocking Reason Price column with a yellow background of the cell
2) MRBR difference column is 0
3) OMR6 tolerance for this CoCode are set only for PP and BD (but PP and BD are not appliable in this case because invoice exactly match good receipt)
Please guide me finding reason why invoice has been locked. That's not an isolated case, other examples happened in production environment.
How can I go on analyzing the issue? How can I find the reason why some invoices are blocked?
Thanks a lot!
Andrea

Hi
Another reason I could think of was due to tolerance limit AP being set up which checks the invoice amount at item level against the PO item level amount. If there is a mismatch at item level as well, Block Reason R is set up.
You may want to check the tolerance group set up for your company codes as per the document below:

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

Thanks in advance
Sarvottam

Hi,
The example entry given by you is correct, in case of your purchase order was created without account assignment category(F/K/P)....i.e...STOCK PO
In case of account assignment cateogry PO, then the price diff during MIRO would be posted to Mat Mag Small Diff account, which you have configrued for acount key PRD in OBYC.

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

Is there a way to pay SA price when invoice price is different (MIRO)

Hello everyone,
I am having an issue with how the amount to be paid to a vendor is working when an invoice price is not equal to the purchase document price.
I am not a FI CO person what so ever. Which means I really haven't a clue as to what I am doing here.
Here is an example of what is happening for us.
I received an invoice from vendor 123, for $491.23 (it is for 10,000 pcs), when we go into MIRO we enter the invoice information, then we enter the SA that needs to be tied to this invoice. When we enter the SA, all of the deliveries not yet tied to an invoice are listed. There is only one delivery for 10,000 pcs listed, but the SA price for this is $418.27. Showing a difference of $72.96. We go ahead and select this delivery.
We then go the the "G/L" tab in MIRO and enter gl# 618116 for the amount of $72.96. We save the entry.
Now, when we go into FBL1N and look up vendor 123, it is showing that we owe $491.23, instead of $418.27.
I have checked OBYC - PRD, and the cost center 618116 is assigned.
Question 1: Shouldn't it show the $418.27 owed to the vendor in FBL1N?
Question 2: Am I missing something in the g/l setup to make this work, do you have any clue as to what that might be?
Any ideas on what we are doing wrong will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for all your help.
Rhonda
double-post

Hi,
If there is any price difference between PO price and Invoice, then system do the posting as follows:
Case 1: If stock exist, then the difference will be posted on Inventory account
Case 2: If stock do not exist then system will psot the difference amount to Price difference account which will be picked from OBYC--PRD....please check if there is setting of gl is there or not..

Treatment of exchange rate difference in MIRO

dear all,
During the GR entry the value in USD IS 10000 & exchange rate is Rs.50.00.But at the time of MIRO the value is USD-12000 & the excange rate is Rs.52.50.
The above transaction should have the following accounting entry.
At GR.
Stores a/c Dr. 500000 (10000*50.00)
To Provision a/c 500000
At MIRO
Provision a/c Dr.                500000
Stores a/c Dr                     100000 (USD2000*50.00)
Exchange rate Diff.a/c Dr. 30000 (USD12000*2.50)
To Vendor                                     630000
Now how to give this effect in MIRO pl. advice.
Thanks
Shivaji

Dear,
Please check the following:
1. There is a price difference in PO price and Price at MIRO --I can see there is
2. Please check if your stock exist-- I am sure stock is there
If above is true then this is standard behavior of SAP..
Please note: If there is any price difference in PO price and Invoice amount then system post difference to stock Account is Stock Exist, if stock do not exist then it post to your price difference account.
Hope this is clear to you, if not then please revert...

Price difference in PO-invoice to different Consumer Account

Hello,
I have the following situation:
Purchase Order: 10 units x 1000 USD = 10000     (Account assigned : u201CKu201D)
Goods Receipt: 10 units (x 1000 USD) = 10000    (valuated GR against consumer account)
PO u2013 invoice:     10 unitos x 1100 USD = 11000     (Invoice with price difference)
1) Upon GR u2013 Accounting document shows:
420021 (consumer account)     10000
220021 (GR/IR)          -10000
2) Upon entering the invoice, SAP standard makes the following account movements:
123456 (Vendor Account)       -11000
220021 (GR/IR) =             10000
420021 (Consumer Account)         1000       (Price difference) - Goes to the same consumer account !
I would like to know if I can configure in the invoice account determination a diferent consumer account for the price difference so that the acounting document will show:
123456 (Vendor Account)                           -11000
220021 (GR/IR) =             10000
420055 (Consumer Account)         1000       (Price difference) - a different consumer account !
Anyone did this before? How, is it standard config of OBYC or does one need a user-exit to accomplish this?
Thanks for any reply,
Aart

Hi guys,
Thanks for your replies.
I customized in the OBYC the price difference account PRD (for the Valuation Category of the material) even changed for the particular material the Price control in the Material Master from "V" to "S", but still, the difference upon receiving the invoice (MIRO) goes to the same Consumer Account!
Maybe the PRD account only works in Stock Postings. Im using POs account assigned (Cost Center).
Any clues?
Thanks,
Aart

Price Difference account at the time of Order Settlement

Hi SAP Gurus
While doing Period End Activities in Controlling, Variances are getting posted to Price difference account (P&L account), similarly at the time of MIRO also, any adjusted amount of a material, is getting posted to price difference a/c if the material stock is not available.
Please help me where this Price diffrence account is assigned or mapped in sap, and how it getting affected while settling orders.
Expecting an immediate reply.
Regards
Praveen Kumar.B

Hi Ganesh
Thanks for valuable advice, but in our case when i double click PRD, there is only one account is mapped in our chart of accounts, But there is no field for Valuation class, from Account field and to account field,
only one field is there by nme Account, where in Price difference account is maintained.
I don't have the option of linking Valuation class with GL Accounts of RM & Semi Finished Materials.
How can make those fields to be shown in that Screen.
If i check for other chart of accounts, it is showing 3 fields
such as Valuation class, from account no & to account no.
but for our chart of account only one filed "account" is displayed in the screen.
Please help me out.
Thanks & Regards

0.01 price difference local currency amount (not due to forex)

Hi All,
I have this strange system behaviour.
In foreign currency, it has no issue. But when see in local currency, it has price difference which is not due to forex.
The exchange rate used is 7.79594
ithe 4 GR lines in foreign currency
14,006.00
9,870.00
14,194.00
3,948.00
where the total foreign amount is 42,018.00
the 4 GR lines in local currency
109,189.98
76,945.96
110,655.62
30,778.38
where the total calculated by system is 327,569.94
BUT, if you calculate yourself, it should be the below where total is 327569.81.
109189.94
76945.93
110655.57
30778.37
Both amount giving the difference of 0.12. (line item of GRC cannot set off due to difference of 0.12. GR 327,569.94 and IR 327,569.82).
Now, during IR, the foreign amount is same which is 42,018.00 and exchagne rate also the same 7.79594 but the GRC amount is credited 327569.82.
But if you see in PO history in me23n, the amount at IR line is 327569.81.
When I see the document in local currency, it throws out credit of 0.01.
My question is,
1) why during GR, the amount calculated manually and system different by 0.12?
2) why during IR, the local amount with addition of 0.01, which is 327569.82 whereas in PO history in me23n, it is showing 327569.81. Why FI document figure and PO history tab IR line different by 0.01?
Thanks

Hi Calesta,
While the currencies have decimals exceeding 4places, then system would many times dismayed while converting and displaying between the local and the foreign currencies. Pls check if you have defined decimal places for the currencies as per your requirement.
Finally the concern is in the acc doc entries either in MIGO or MIRO. If the difference you are getting is affecting your accounting due to exchange rate differences etc you can configure automatic posting by TE key KDR in OBYC

Shiva

Reg:- Price difference

Dear All
In purchase order we maintained the exchange rate of 88.1 (Exchange rate Check box was not ticked) and the Po was in Currency GBP. When Migo was done with the exchange rate was 79.00 and while doing Miro the exchange rate was 81. So there is a rate difference of Rs 1. But now my question was this difference exchange rate is ¾ amount is posted to Material account and ¼ was posted to Prd Account.
As per my knowledge if my material price control is V the entire amount of price difference should be posted to material account but why it is posting ¾ to material account and ¼ to prd account. Is there any configuration changes to be made?
Please help regarding this and maximum points will be awarded for helpful answer.
Regards
Edited by: vinay bhaskar on Mar 12, 2008 11:54 AM

Hi Vinay,
The settings will remain same. But the thing is when you do MIRO if there is price variance( normal or ex rate diff) then the system will auto check the availability of the quantity of that material involved. If there is suffcient quantity to the extent of MIRO quantity then it will post to the inventory account otherwise it will post proportionate value to inv account to the extent it is available.
It seems in your case before you post miro.... 25% of the quantity is already consumed to order or cost center, whatever so and hence the posting happened to prd account to the extent of 25%...
Hope this clarifies.

Velumani
