Purchase price variance in subcontracting order
Our customer has the following scenario:
Purchase account is posted with the value of stock subsequently purchase price variance is a legal account
Material ledger is active
Inventories are managed with standard price for each material code
Latin method management of inventories post stock values on managerial account
In good receipt with a subcontracting order, in case of purchase price variance, legal account of purchase price variance is posted generating a wrong reconciliation between managerial and legal posting.
Example
The subcontractor is a co packer that assembles material A to produce material B
Material A has a standard price of 3
Material B has a standard price of 5
If Co packer fees have a value of 2 no purchase price variance occurs during good receipt, as a matter of fact :
(Co packing fees) 2 + (Material A) 3 = (Material B) 5
Else if co packer fees have a value of 3 a purchase price variance of 1 occurs and itu2019s posted using transaction key u201CPRDu201D. On FI the following document is posted:
Legenda : L stands for legal account , M stands for managerial account
(L) Co packing Fees 3
(L) Invoice to receive 3
(L)Purchase price variance 1
(M) Consumption Material A 3
(M) Stock Material A 3
(M) Stock Material B 5
(M) Production Confirmation Material B 6
In this scenario Purchase price variance should be a managerial account, but transaction key is PRD and changing the account would affect every posting.
This is the answer from OSS
Dear Customer,
the system works as designed.
When Material Ledger is activated, price differences are always
generated under the circumstances you have described. The reason is
that when material ledger is activated, price differences must not be
included into the stock changes value, otherwise the system would
not be able to calculate an actual price.
When Material Ledger is activated, the customizing setting
for handling price differences in the subcontracting process has no
effect.

Report for Purchase Price Variance
Hi,
Is there any standard report for finding Purchase Price Variance between Purchase Order and Material master
regards,
MallikHi Mallik,
There is no std report for Purchase price variance .
But you can check KSB1 , where you can find the Price difference which is going to your PRD account .
You can find out your PRD G/L account .
Now go to KSB1 . In the cost element field give the PRD G/L account .
After executing change the layout as per your requirement .
Now you can see the Pur Price variance for the particulat material for the PO .
Otherwise you need to develop a customised report .
Hope this helps .

Standard SAP report for purchase price variance
Hi All,
I need to know if there is a standard SAP report that shows the purchase price variance.
Thanks,
RegardsHi Ritika,
There is no standard report available to compare purchase order price cost and standard cost of a material.
You can check if FBL3N helps to resolve your purpose or not. Or else you have to make a customized report with the help of ABAP'er on the informations based on the following tables.

EKKO

Hi
I want to to drill down the purchase price variance.Say I have PPV of 10K. I want to drill down to details of 10k.How to proceed.What is the transaction code for that?
Thanks in advance.
SNHi Satya,
Variances are based around the standard values that are set up in the Material Master file. These standard values represent what it "should" cost to produce (or purchase) a unit of the product. Variances are calculated automatically when settlement jobs are ran in SAP
purchase price variances are caused by a difference between the standard cost in the MM file and the actual price on the purchase order.
The entries will b something like this
Debit Inventory XXXXX
Credit Accounts Payable XXXXX
Credit Price Variance XXXXX

Purchase Price Variance Foreign Exchange difference
How Purchase Price Variance Foreign Exchange difference is calculated for material consumed in product costing / material ledger
You need to go to net price at purchase order in local currency. With quantity you'll get the purchase order total price in local currency.
Get the standard price of material master record (which is in purchase order) on MM03 transaction on costing 2 view.
Purchase price variance is the difference between purchase price order and material standard price.
To get this difference in foreing currency, you´ll need to get document date of purchase order, get exchange rate at OB08 and find both prices in foreign currency; after that get same way the variance.
Hope that helps, -
Purchase Price Variance (Standard Costing) with Intercompany
We are missing Intercompany transactions in Purchase price variance report. Is there a setup which let's us include these transactions to be captured by PPV report
We do have standard costing in all OrganizationsFinally got this answered from Oracle Support below is what they said. Does not make sense but atleast we have an answer
In principle the internal requisition hits the interorg variance account which is defined at the shipping network and is different from purchase price variance(PPV) account of the organization. So this is not included in PPV report. PPV report is only meant for purchase orders.
Best practice would be to define different account for PPV and interorg variance. Use PPV report to match PPV account with GL and use material distribution account detail report for Interorg variance.
If the customer defines PPV and Interorg variance account as the same then the workarounds would be :
1) Use material distribution account detail report.
Or
2) In R12 use SLA account balance reports -
Accrual generates a purchase price variance
When receiving an invoice for a material that requires the accrual of use tax, the accrual generates a purchase price variance, rather than generating an expense related to the material. Is it standard for SAP?
Purchase price variance is always created for the price ordered with the vendor and the standard price of the material in its master.
For example the material price is $ 12 ($ 10 base price + $ 2 for freight ) (Freight accrual is maintained through MEK1 transaction)
We place an order with vendor $11.
The entry will be
Material Dr. 12
PPV Dr. 1
GR/IR Cr 11
Freight Accrual Cr 2. -
Material purchase price variance and different cuurrency in IR
we have a requirement to split price variance and freight purchase price variance in goods receipt stage, but the problem is condition type can not be assigned COPC original group. so what are the tables I can use to split the two ppvariance using customized report?
also in GR, accrued freight now is using month end rate, but we want it to be planned rate(another exchange rate type), is it possible to configure?

Edited by: K. Raghuram on May 19, 2009 1:02 PMHi Raghuram,
I think,the only possiblity for this to happen is due to the standard Price in the Mterial Mater you are using.
Means in the Material Master ,the Price key is a standard pricing.
So ,when ever you do a GRN ,the PO value will go and hit the Material account upto to the Standard price maintained in the material Master.
if the amount is more than it ,then amount difference will hit the Price variance account.
so in your case ,the CST is inventorised one ,i believe.. so that is the reason it is behaving so.
if there is somethig else required.provide a clear insight of the Problem.

You can use KKO0 reports...
For that, assign your Cost Comp Str in OKN0 and choose Product Group = material group.. This is one time config
Execute KKRV monthly after all period end setttlements are over... Then you can view KKO0 reports
