Purchase Taxes Affects Moving Average Cost

Hello experts,
is it possible to have the sales tax paid on purchases affect the moving average cost of the item, in a simple manner?
Thanks,
Aaron

Hi,
From your explanation i came to understand that the tax amount has to be added to the inventory value.
You need to use the landed cost document.
For example,
incase if you are using EDCessHcess+Vat tax,choose only vat tax in purchase document.
and the EDCessHcess has to be added to inventory value.
Use ED,Cess,Hcess in the landed cost.
This would pass EDCessHcess amount to the inventory.
After booking the Goods Receipt PO,you need to immediately book the landed cost,Which will affect the moving average value.
Else the tax value will be added to price difference account-mapped in the warehouse and there would be much deviation in the moving average.
Hope this would help in solving the issue.

Moving Average Costing

My clients business buys used equipment on the secondary market that they refurbish & sell. The prices fluctuate pretty dramatically based upon supply and demand; so it really isn't possible to set a standard cost that would be valid throughout the year. Using standard costs results in huge fluctuations in the inventory purchase price variances month over month and quarter of quarter. Therefore, we explored using moving average costing.
Could someone help me get the moving average to update using PM04, Does SAP actually recommend against using moving average costing?

Charlie,
Thanks for your response. If I understand you right, you are suggesting doing STD pricing every month or quarter instead of attempting MAP? Is that right?

Movement types and effects on moving average cost

Hi all,
can anybody explain me what is moviment type n° 309 (transaction mb1b).
Before of this movement I had in the storage a stock of 15.000 KG and a moving average cost of 6,70 u20AC.
Then I did a movement 309 in MB1B for 4.050 kg.
After that I did a movement 261 (probably with transaction qa11) for 11850,300.
After these movements my moving average cost decreased to 1,29.
what kind of movement are 309 and 261?
Can they change my moving average cost?
thank you
C.

Hello Vallex,
Mvt type 309 is materia to material/batch to batch/valuation type to valuation type transfer. If you have different different price for both material then definately it will change your moving average price.
However, 261 is issue to production order and that will not change your moving average price. it will take material price from material master into the accouting document.
Hope this helps.

Wrong cost allocated for the Moving Average item

Dear Experts,
Please see this inventory audit report.. Wrong cost allocated for the Moving Average item
[screenshot here|http://www.flickr.com/photos/45736280@N07/4347146537/sizes/o/]
Please help advice why.
Warmest Regards,
Chinho

Oh yes, István is totally correct. I realized I had gotten my definition of Moving Average calculation wrong.
The actual moving average cost price is actually calculated in the background after each purchase. The cost price shown on the screen for each purchase is simply the cost price in the purchase document.
At the point of each purchase, the Moving Average price is updated as:
Actual moving average price = (Last total cumulative value + current purchase trans value) / (Last Cumulative Qty + current purchase qty)
Hope it helps and Thanks guys for the advice!

Is purchase tax part of Cost of sales?

hi,
When calculating the cost of sales do we regard the purchase tax as part of cost of sales? If i give a scenario below :-
purchase invoice
============
stocks USD100
purchase tax USD20
Invoice total = USD120
In the above case, will both the stocks and purchase tax be lumped together as Cost of sales or only the stocks amount?

Hi,
if the purchase tax is recoverable - then it not included in the sales. if it not recoverable you can include the sales.

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.

Moving Average Price tolerances for intercompany transfers

We are looking to utilize the tolerance limit settings for GR's to prevent entry mistakes from affecting moving average prices severly. I have sucessfully tested this process by triggering a warning/error message at the time of a goods receipt, but have been unable to trigger a warning/error for intercompany transfers.
Is this configuration in the OMC0 settings, in config, or somewhere else?
Thanks very much for any feedback.
Matt

HI Jurgen,
Thanks for your reply.
1. We have maintained the price control as V
2. You have mentioned "However it is as well possible to enter an external value in the movement (if enabled in customizing). then the movement is valuated with this value and the MAP in material master is adjusted."
Where to checl in IMG for the above ?
3. We did goods issue in the previous period 12/2011 but doing the GR in current period 01/2012. Do we need to maintain MAP for both the periods ?
If you can please tell us what is the standard process to carry out such activity ?

Moving Average does not base on Posting Date??

Hi All,
I got the problem with moving average, seem that the Posting Date is ignored when posting Sales document or purchase document,and moving average does not calculated correctly.
The system only calculated the moving average
based on the input seq, and the posting
date is ignored??
does anyone know its normal? or any
setting can change the behavior?
or any system auto adj?
thanks
Chris

Hi Chris,
This is standard functionality of SAP Business One.
Please consider that system works with Continuous Stock System option enabled. This causes, that each item receipt have direct impact on MAP.
Of course you have possibility to turn this off (before first posting), however then you will not have postings to the stock account, but to the revenues and expenses. In this case also MAP is not handled by the system.

Maciek

Intercompany Sales Processing- Moving Average Price

Hi,
I have a special requirement in Intercompany process..
I want the Ordering company to be charged with Moving Average Price of the Material instead of the Normal Price.
Can some on help me out with this?
Thanks,
Challa.

Hello,
You can control it using formulas via VOFM ,for the conditions IV01, PI01 (statistical) but I would suggest a more standard solution using VPRS condition.
Condition Type VPRS in the intercompany-billing document indicates cost to the supplying company code and it's used to retrieve the cost of the material accessing the valuation segment of the material master for getting the standard cost or the moving average cost. Condition category G accesses the standard cost and condition category T always accesses the moving average price.
The use of two different condition types in Intercompany billing is necessary to ensure that data is transmitted correctly to the financial statement (Component CO-PA).
Having VPRS condition correctly determined You can use a formula to make Your PI01 condition equal to the VPRS.
Tell me if it helped you !
Thanks,

Unexpected change in moving average price

Hello All,
As per my understanding, the material moving average price will only be changed when there are any new receiving with different material price. However, the situation for this material average price is not as what I expected, it has unexpectedly rise for two days and then again became normal.
I have checked and found that only 261 movement was carried out.
I have also checked in invoice, but nothing is wrong in that.
Kindly guide me on the same.
Regards,
Joginder

Hi Joginder,
The MAP is recalculated at every relevant movement & invoice. Please
review the following notes which explain how the MAP is calculated and
what can change the MAP.
