Price difference types

Hi all,
I want to know all the cases for which the difference amount hits the price diff account.
for Eg. if the amount (1000 Rs) in PO and Invoice amount is (1500 Rs) then the difference amount (500 Rs) will hit the price difference account.
Regards,
Shruti.

hi shruti
in sap we have two types of price control
1)Standard price
2)Moving average price
Suppose if u use price control as standard in MMR. if there is any variance in price, difference amount will post to PRD account
Suppose if u use price control as Moving average  in MMR. if there is any variance in price, difference amount will post to Stock  account
1)create mmr with standard price.> create PO > Migo > MIRO in invoice receipts change the amount goto simulate tab
Income - price variances if the price is less.
if the IR price is less than GR price its income
Loss - price variances if the price is more. 
if the IR price is more than GR price its loss
2)create mmr with moving average price.> create PO > Migo > MIRO in invoice receipts change the amount goto simulate tab
in this case variances  will post to stock account only

  • Price difference allocation of m-type '301'

    Dear all,
    for certain material, we using m-type '301-TF transfer plnt to plnt' to transfer the stock from one plant to another one. however, after price determination and revalution consumption, price difference can not allocate to these items(CKM3) .
    would anyone help me?
    thanks,
    Ben

    Hi Ben Wu,
    Do not know how you processed CKMLCP. Anyway the alternative way to test this is select only one material for which stock transfers happened...
    Step 1) run CKMF - Allow Material Price Determination
            2) run CKMH - Determine Material Prices (Single-Level)
            3) run CKMG - Allow Closing Entries
            4) run CKMI - Post Closing
    From the first two step itself you can analyse whether the price determination considers the price difference. If so proceed to run 3rd and 4th step.
    Then check CKM3 it would be fine.

  • Price difference between sales order and invoice

    Dear all,
    I have a problem about prices. For example;
    In VA01 net price of items: 2.954.241,93
    while; in VF01, net price of items 2.954.241,92
    Difference occurs because of batches in VF01.
    In VA01 screen;
    Material:100000939 ;                quantity:     1.000,000kg Unit price:146,62 total:146.620,00
    But;
    VF01 screen;
    Material:100000939 ;               quantity:432     (Batch1)    
                                                     quantity:366                 (Batch2)
                                                     quantity:162                 (Batch3)
    So a small difference occurs.
    What should I do to fix this issue?
    Kind regards,

    Hi
    As per your given example :-
    In VA01 screen;
    Material:100000939 ; quantity: 1.000,000kg Unit price:146,62 total:146.620,00
    But;
    VF01 screen;
    Material:100000939 ; quantity:432 (Batch1)
    quantity:366 (Batch2)
    quantity:162 (Batch3)
    If you check you will find that system is calcultaing correctly.
    In above case total material delivered is 960 Kg (432366162) and reate is 1000 per Kg. so total value is 140755.20. and if you calculate the price separately for each batches separately it will be 63339.84, 53662.92, and 23752.44 for the batches with quantity 432, 366, and 162 respectively. If you add these value it will be same as the value for 960Kg.
    Now in any case if you are getting some difference in paise then you may use Price Condition Type DIFF or round off the Price Condition.

  • 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.

  • Allocation of Price Difference

    Dear Experts,
    I am working for a cement industry. One of our Semi Finished material is Clinker which we will be using against production of cement and we sell clinker also.
    The price control for Clinker is maintained as standard in system (150). There are 10 process orders for Clinker (5000 TO) and against each process order I have Variance totalling to 10000.
    So the actual cost of 5000 TO should be = 150 * 5000 + 10000
                                                                      = 750000 + 10000
                                                                      = 760000
    In my Production order Price Difference GL I can find the Production order variance 10000 + variance due to change in price
    Production order Price Difference GL = 10000 + 2500
                                                                = 12500
    The total production of Clinker is 5000 TO.
    I have sold 1500 TO, 2500 Issued against process order and 1000 TO in my stock.
    All has gone at standard price i.e 150 / To
    I would like to know how I can allocate the production order variance of 10000 against Goods Sold, Goods Issued, Closing Stock.
    Is there any way system will give me the allocation chart. Please help.
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You can use KKO0 reports to see variance per cost component...
    Map each of these act types to a separate cost como in OKTZ... Assign this cost comp in OKN0 and choose Mat Grup = Product Group
    Then run KKRV to collect the data followed by KKO0

  • Price difference in MAP material

    Hi,
       I am taking a material which is managed Batch wise and split valuation is active, while valuation type is moving average price.
    when doing the goods issue for the material, it is hitting the entry in Price difference account..
    But when I am reversing the same GI document, it does not hit the Price Difference account. It loads the Price difference on inventory.
    but requirement is that, during reversal of goods issue it should post the PRD account by whatever amount was posted in PRD account during Goods Issue.
    Please help me out, how to solve this. By any means, can we post the entry in PRD when material is managed by MAP.
    Thanks,
    Varun

    Hi,
      Material A is batch managed with split valuation active. In the material master valuation type  MAP is maintained.
    When doing the Good Receipt of this material with quantity 1, with 475 $, MAP changes to 475$ for newly generated batch valuation.
    When doing the Goods Issue at 300$ with quantity 1, inventory account is credited by 300$, and 175$ is debited to Gain/loss account.
    When reversing this GI document, material account is debited by 475$. But my requirement is that, it should debit material account by 300$ only and 175$ should be credited to Gain/loss account.
    Hope, now I am able to clear my requirement.
    Thanks,

  • Sales invoice Price difference

    Hi gurus,
    Please help me to solve this  scenario.
    I sale 10 units  material for 100 each  price to my customer.
    But due to some problem if he returns my material. When we Replace the material there is a Price Difference.
    Now we are using Moving Average Price.
    now I want to sale that material  again for 90 each price that will be less than price 100.
    The main issue is: “ I can not change the (financial postings)invoice price when I replace the goods, this is legal requirement here”
    How would I handle this price difference.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    George

    Hi George,
                  You can maintain different pricing procedure for returns and assign that Pricing procedure in the transaction OVKK with the combination of Sales Area + return Document pricing procedure+Custpmer pricing procedure.
    Maintain condition records for the condition types through VK11
    I  hope It will solve your problem.

  • How to determine price difference account for 301 MT?

    I know that 309 movement type is used for tranferring a material to another material . If the prices of two materials are different, price difference will go into transferring account determined by transaction key AUM.
    301 movement type is used for transferring material A from plant 1000 to plant 2000. Suppose a scenerio:
    plant 1000, material A, standard price 115,
    plant 2000, material A, standard price 100,
    so, if I use MB1B to do a transfer posting, the  accounting entry must be:
    Dr: stock posting account    100
         price difference account   15
       Cr: stock posting account   115
    What I doubt is, in this scenerio, How to determine this price difference account in OMJJ and OBYC? It is also determined by transction key AUM like 309?
    Hope you can help. Thanks.

    I have checked that price difference account of 309 MT is also determined by AUM. But, from SAP documentation, AUM is described like this:  "This transaction is used for transfer postings from one material to another if the complete value of the issuing material cannot be posted to the value of the receiving material. " So I think that AUM is is used for transferring one material to another material, not used for transferring a material from one plant to another plant.  It is different therotically, I think. but, in practice, 301 and 309 both use AUM for price difference account.
    THis is my doubt.

  • PO Invoice price difference handling - accounting issues

    Hi,
    I am working for a distribution company that is selling right away the goods it bought. Therefore we first receive the goods before creating a PO and then receive the invoices from our suppliers later on.
    Very often, there are differences between the PO and Invoices and as per SAP standard configuration, any price differences between PO and invoice are booked straight into cost of sales while quantity differences are kept on balance sheet level.  However, we would like to be able to treat the price and quantity differences the same way (i.e. on balance sheet level and so not directly in Cost of Goods Sold).
    Do you know if there is a way to do so?
    Also, we would like to be able to distinguish the different type of errors that resulted into differences between the PO and invoice, and create different type of errors in order later to make different reports and analyses the causes. Can we do that with the SAP MM and FI/CO functions? How?
    Thank you in advance,
    Regards,
    Vic

    Proceed with posting Invoice, System blocks the Invoice. You need to manually remove the block for further processing.

  • Price difference on cancellation of production order confirmation

    Hi,
    We are having a material which is maintained at price control "S". We have created a production order for the material. In due course of business, we did confirmation for say 100 pcs of the material. However, immediatly on confirmation, we realized that we do not need to do the confirmation & hence we did the cancellation of the production order confirmation using CO13.
    On doing the production order confirmation cancellation, we observed that the system has posted some amount to "price difference account"
    We also observed that once in a while this kind of entries do get posted.
    It is requested to please let us know in why system is behaving this way?
    We have checked SAP Note no 216080 "Price difference when reversing GI for S-Priced material" & SAP Note no 215980 'Price difference during GR for the production order". However we are not convinced that these could be the reason for the price difference.
    Thanking you in anticipation
    Regards
    Santosh Kumar Agarwal

    Hi,
    Yes, you are correct in the understanding that the system creates quants in 914 when the production order confirmation is cancelled. But, it does not generate any TR or TO in the background to post the stock back into the original storage type.
    Can we not use the put away strategies so that the system determines where to place the material? My query is that despite all the configurations for automatic TO creation and confirmation for movement type 262, it does not generate a TO (or TR) in the background when a production order confirmation is cancelled using CO13.
    However, if I manually post a material using MB1A for 261 movement type and reverse it using 262, it generates a TO and confirms it as per the setting in configuration.
    The same thing does not work when we run it through PP (CO11N and then CO13).
    Any suggestions on how to approach this and where to check for missing configurations?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Gaurishankar

  • 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.

  • Change Multi-Level Price Difference Process Category

    Hello ML Gurus,
    We have a situation
    Our I2P team has certain process orders that are recursive -- header material the same as component.  (These are NOT rework order types, but standard process order type PR01).  In the beginning, they posted GR as process category "Receipts", and GI as process category "Consumption". This resulted in cyclical error during CKMLCP.  When we cut off connections and ran, it left a huge price difference as "Not Allocated".
    To circumvent this problem, I2P used a BADI to change the process category for the consumption to "Receipts".  Everything was ok, until the monthend.  When we do the Multi-Level Price Determination, the price difference gets posted to Consumption only, and since the original consumption is moved to "Receipts", the entire price difference is now "Not Allocated".
    We think we can fix this by changing the process category for the multi-level price difference to "Receipts" also.
    Is there a way to do it?  Any BADI, User Exit, Enhancement -- anything?
    Also, this is not a pretty design....do you have a suggestion for improving the overall process?  We used to have a Product Cost Collector and post these consumption and then settle them monthly, but we lost traceability for the batches so we cannot and do not use them.
    Appreciate your help.
    Cheers,
    TD

    Hi,
    Basically single level price determination calculates periodic unit price based prices differences for that material alone is considered
    Multilevel price determination considers its own differences as well those of the input materials.
    Hence single level price determination is a prerequisite for multilevel determination

  • MAP Material hit Price difference account

    Hi Experts,
    Need your help urgently.
    I gone through many threads but  i did not got the solution.
    Material Created with Moving average price, while implemented, uploaded the inital stock. Then created one Import PO for the same material in USD and book the delivery cost invoice in USD. Now We are booking the GRN but its going to price difference account. We have blocked price difference account for this material type.
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
       It is standard behavior when stock value in document currency is not equal to the clearing value in document currency. The posting logic is well explained in the note: 191927 - Posting logic: GR for foreign currency PO and  308008 - FAQ: Posting logic: GR/IR clearing account  Question 12

    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!
