Setting Material Ledger to Productive

All,
How do I set the material ledger to productive for a given plant ?
The accounts are all setup and everything  is fine in transaction OMX1
(the active material ledger is checked for the plant\valuation area)
However in transaction CKM9 the material ledger is not yet productive.
How do I make it productive ?
Thanks,
Mark

Dear Mark,
After installing the Material Ledger it is necessary to run a transaction to define the Material Ledger as productive for a valuation area.
Note: Once defined as productive, the material ledger cannot be deactivated. This procedure must be executed only when there are no material movements for the period. Also, if there are material master data for production related materials (material types ROH, HALB and FERT) already in the system they must have a standard price registered .
Prerequisites:
To install the Material Ledger/WIP functions is also necessary that the extension EA-FIN (Financials Extension) has been activated. To check if this extension is active use the following path: IMG > SAP Customizing Implementation Guide > Activation Switch for SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension Set
1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
Installation Role J18 Product Cost Planning / Material Ledger -> Material Ledger Installation -> Repeat Steps for  each Productive Plant  -> Production Startup of Material Ledger
or Transaction CKMSTART
2. Run the transaction CKMSTART for all valuation areas.
Reward points if it helps.
Regards,
Naveen.

    Please help

    IMG->Controlling->Product Cost Controlling->Actual Costing/Material Ledger-> Activate Valuation Areas for Material Ledger
    In this step, you activate the material ledger for valuation areas - Before activating material ledger, check the additional currencies defined in the Co Cd.

  • Material Ledger,Revaluation Production Cost Center ,Standard Cost

    Hi, I have a problem with  revaluation of production cost centers.
    Firstly,  production cost center expenses are settled via activity types onto the production order at the end of the period. However,  CKMLCP revaluate cost centers after the settlement because of using standard price. So cost centers at the end of the period have some amount.
    As a result we can not find  actual price for production orders.
    If I use standard cost in order to consume on cost centers, material ledger revaluates again this cost centers. I dont want this condition. Because this cost center is settled to other cost object before closing.  
    Thanks.

    Hi Sabera,
    The Valuation Area is not activated for your material ledger. Go to SAP Access>>Accounting>>Controlling>>product cost controlling>>Actual Costing>>environment>>Production Start up>>Set Valuation area as productive.
    If you already activated Valution area in to Productive Statge.
    Then go to T.Code OMX1 and for your valuation area XXX2 tick the ML activation box.
    the error wont come

    Hi,
    It seems you had not done costing activities on materials soon after its creation.
    Remember one thing if *material Ledger* is active in your company code then you will have to perform some costing activities soon after the creation so that at the time of PUP (Periodic Unit Price) costing run all material s will be costed and if some variances are there will get settled.
    I think u had not done CKMM soon after creation and u had done some postings thats why system is not selecting your material.
    Thanks

    I need to understand better which are the consequences in material ledger canceling procedure described in the following SAP notes:
    SAP Note 108374 - Canceling material ledger production startup
    SAP Note 425487 - Deactivating the material ledger in production systems
    In particular I'm intrerested in which are the tables anda data involved by the deleting procedure.
    My goal is the subsiquent reactivation  of the material ledger in a multiple valuation scenario as described in the SAP note:
    SAP Note 120380 - Subsequent activation of multiple valuation approaches
    Thanks in advance  for your cooperation.

  • Material Master (Material Ledger- Product cost actual costing)

    When I create a material in MM01 and no Standard price is set the columns "Company code currency" y "Profit valuation" are disabled.
    The only column available is the one corresponding to company code currency. The field "Price unit" starts with the number of 1000 and this information is not copied to the other price unit fields unless you introduce a value in the Standar price - Company code currency field.
    Does any one knows a user exit that can modify this values (Price unit - Group Currency and Price unit - Profit valuation) ?

  • Material ledger production start up

    Dear expert,
    we are working on a project that has two main objectives:
    1) now the customer is using the mtv 103/105 and we want to move to the 101
    2) now the customer is using a custom 'medium price calculation' and we have to activate the material ledger.
    I red the note 596558 and I have some question; first at all I would like to find some documentation about this activity and the effects of  a Material ledger production startup, could someone tell me we can I find info ?
    The question are
    At point f) is wrote
    u201CYou should always transfer purchase orders and purchase order histories before activating the material ledger. This ensures that the system translates the purchase order history in all additional currencies.u201D
    What does it means? Why it is necessary translate? How?
    If a company has only the local currency is it necessary the translation?
    At point j) is wrote
    u201CWe recommend that you close open orders before activating the material ledger and recreate them after the activation if required.u201D
    WHY?
    The posting logic for postings that reference a purchase order is changed in the parallel currencies due to the activation of the material ledger. As a result, there may be unexpected price postings and exchange rate difference postings for purchase orders that are not closed in business transactions (goods movements and invoices) that are posted later.
    Which unexpected postings? Refers to new u2018Transactionu2019 (e.g. BSX, WRX, PRD, KDM, u2026) used after the material ledger start up? 
    Now the customer is using a custom u2018medium price calculationu2019; we think to reverse all movements in the year (103, 105, invoices) for order item not closed and recreate the goods movement with  the new model (101, invoices) after the ML activation.
    Thanks in advance.

    In our case CKMSTART was definately done before Inventory load. This Tcode was part of config prior to Master data creation and migrated data loads....

  • Material status in master data set not allow create production order. but..

    Dear All expert.
    There is one case I don't understand,  the component material within BOM had been set material plant status which it is not allowed to create Production order ( Porder header Msg & PO/Network item msg = B in OMS4).
    If user use tx:CO01 for create production order, the error message block production order can't be created. It is good .
    However, when user is using Tx: CO41 to convert planned order to production order with that material ( status which not allowed to create production Order) . it is successfully without any error message ..  User successfully create production order without limit.
    Therefore,  is there any configure in IMG was wrong?
    thanks for reading.
    Marco

    Dear R.Brahmankar,
    I had followed your instruction to check. It is very helpful.
    when I check program in CO41 (saplcoup), I found that it only check material  status (FG) on top level of BOM .
    Its don't check component material.
    Function CO_ZF_CHECK_MATSTAT_POS  component item in BOM , the program will not check item plant status.
    When I use TX: CO40 to test. I found that CO40 with Program LCOSD1J - CHECK_MATSTAT_COMP have component material status check.
    I'm not sure is that genic CO41 don't have component material status check?

  • CKMLCP - Zero-stock Product Impacts Material Ledger

    Dear experts,
    We've executed a monthly costing run using material ledger. It's run smoothly every month but, at this time, the system selected a material which stock quantty is zero, that hasn't had any movements since last year and hasn't been changed (material master) either.
    Now system says we need to perform the closing entry in the previous period but what guarantees it won't keep saying it until the last run when the price was calculated for this material?
    Why only now it was selected and how to avoid this material to be considered?
    Best regards, Marcos.

    hi merchant..
       1. Price diff between stnd and act is initially goes to PRD a/c through OBYC setting at the time of GR/Invoiceing/Issue if mat is set as S&3.
       2. In case of mat set as V&2 idially there should not be any diff but may arise some small amount due to "no or less stock qty" at the time of invoicing.
      3. When CKMLCP is run these price diff & order settlement diff splitted to cons and stock as you mentioned.
    Now your question :
      " Since, Consumption Acount GL is a Cost Element with Cost Category as 1, what shall be the CO Account Assignment Object, when the ML value is settled to Consumption Accounts"
        Cons GL is cost element cat 1 for capturing mat mov for Issues to orders/cost centres,oth co obj for primary posting at stnd price.
        Now at the time of CKMLCP run you revaluate the materials and price diff are splitted to cons & stock and goes to mat to calculate act cost (stnd +/- prd).
    I think this will give you some light on your issue.

    Hello Padmaja,
    You will to check the following before activation the Val.area
    1) OMX1: Check if ML is active against the plant IF NOT
    2) Use tcode CKMSTART - Enter Val area - EXECUTE.

  • Issue with Standard Cost estimates / Material Ledger

    Background:
    We have been using SAP for the last 5 years with Material Ledger active. Due to a number of reasons, we have not revised its standard cost estimates from 2001 till now. This means that at month end, we do not mark and release prices as recommended, nor do we mark prices and use dynamic release.
    What Happened:
    A new material called PFSW3 was made. This is a FERT. Before production
    could start my team released the standard cost estimate for this material. Production was now able to proceed without problem. Then, when the time came to sell the material (VF02), SAP again raised the error 'cost estimate not found'. On checking the standard price in MM03, we discovered that the future cost estimate was missing. So we created and marked a new cost estimate in the middle of February 2007.
    Problem:
    When the first sale took place, SAP released the marked cost estimate and posted a Price Change document to adjust for the new standard cost. I understand this was due to dynamic release. Now, when month end came, the system settled all the production orders of material PFSW3 but did not do multi level costing on it.
    Internal Investigation:
    My team has determined that the material PFSW3 has price determination 2 set by mistake. All our other production materials (HALB and FERT) are
    set to price determination 3 in the material master (accounting view).
    Questions:
    To sum this situation up,
    we need to know why the material PFSW3 was not marked closed in its period status (CKM3) at the time of closing through CKMLCP?
    What are the implications of not closing this material in Feb 2007 (current period status is showing 'Quantities and values entered')?
    How can we close this material this month?
    The future cost estimate is again missing for PFSW3 in March 2007 and I
    fear we are going to face more problems as this material is sold to customers.
    Please respond this is an urgent issue.

    Dear Shumyl,
    Please, have a look at Note 645083 - Material period status set to "Closing Entry Completed" that might help to closing your material in previous period.
    Hope it will be useful.
    Regards,
    Flaviano.

  • Material Ledger Functionality with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock

    We are in the process of setting up Make To Order (MTO) with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock. We currently use the Material Ledger in our other businesses that use Process Orders.
    Does the Material Ledger functionality support MTO with Non Valuated Sales Order Stock? I have been testing this and have not yet figured out how to get ML postings. We are using production orders that settle to sales orders. We do not bring this into inventory, the costs reside on the sales order.
    If this functionality does exist, I would assume I need to configure the Material Update Structure but I cannot find any documentation on this.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Greg

    Hi Greg,
    no, material ledger will not be able to calculate and allocate actual costs for the sales order in the scenario you describe. It would of course, if you used the valuated sales order stock.
    Generally SAP sees in the valuated sales order stocks (avaliable since 3,1 or something) a great improvement and no real reason to use still the non-valuated scenario.
    best regards,

  • Material Ledger

    Hi Experts,
    I have activated Material Ledger and Actual Costing. After that I tried to do the “Production Startup of Mat. Ledger” (Set Valuation Areas as Productive – CKMSTART) I am getting below error.
    Cost component structure for period 007 / 2014 in plant XXXX not found
    Message no. MLCCS003
    Diagnosis
    No cost component structure was found in valuation 2 for period 007 / 2014 in plant XXXX.
    I checked the Cost component structure and observed that Cost Component Structure is active and assigned to Plant via Company Code.
    I ran the transaction “Display of ML-Relevant Customizing settings – CKM9”. I noticed that it is mentioned that “Currency and Valuation profile” is not active. I have created the Currency and Valuation profile TP01 and have assigned the Currency type 30 and 10 to it.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Experts,
    I deselected the "Actual Cost Component Split Active" check box and observed that “Production Startup of Mat. Ledger (CKMSTART)” is getting executed without error.
    But I don’t know the impact of deactivating the "Actual Cost Component Split Active".
    Please give your valuable advice.
