VPRS - moving avarage price

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with condition VPRS. We have to use Moving cost in this case, so I set condition category T.
But when we create a new material this value in material master is empty and only standard price is filled up.
In this case condit. category should change from T to S.
I tried the condit. cat. G but system simply took Standard price even if Moving average price was filled up.
How should I proceed? Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Hi
Here is some information about VPRS condition type ...from the pdf file.....
Cost condition - VPRS
Use
In Pricing, you may want to compare the prices with costs or even implement contribution margin
accounting.
To do this, you can use the condition type VPRS as the cost price.
The condition type VPRS goes into the valuation segment in the material master and determines
from this the standard price or average price.
Settings in Customizing
The condition type VPRS is labeled as a statistical condition in the pricing procedure.
Using the condition category G, the condition type VPRS goes into the valuation
segment of the material master and determines from here the standard or average price.
The condition category S always accesses the standard price whereas condition
category T always accesses the average price.
You can refer P 102 in this link....

Moving avarage price report

Hi
can somebody pls tell me how can I get report for the Moving average
price on a particular date & value of the stock accordingly on that day.
Thanks & regards..
pravin

Hello Praveen,
CKM3 / CKM3N will work only if material ledger is active for your valuation area.
Table MBEW will give the material price and value for current and previous period, not for particualr date and the same is for MBEWH will give the price and value for past periods.
Table MSEG contains Material value and Stock before posting that material document, but does not contain document date, so you need to take it from MKPF table.
Also you need to give logic that if material document is not available for that particular date it should consider the posting period and pick the material price and value from MBEW / MBEWH table.
I think it will be some challenging report to get material price for particular date, instead if you convience business abou the getting price for that posting period it will be more easy. In that case you need to consider only MBEW and MBEWH table.
Hope this helps.

Moving avarage price

hi frnds
What is the use of moving average price in Material master?
regards

Moving average price are used mainly for raw materials that are purchased externally. The advantage of using moving average price for your raw materials is that your inventory costs will always reflect the current market cost.
SAP strongly recommends that you do not select price control V for semi-finished products and finished products, because doing so will very easily cause the calculation of unrealistic valuation prices. SAP recommends:
Price control V for raw materials and trading goods; price control S for semi-finished products and products.
If you nevertheless select price control V, take care in the following situations:
1. Unrealistic prices occur if materials are produced and also retire during one period (that is, the inventory at the end of the period is smaller than the total of aquisitions from production orders) and if, in addition, several production orders belonging to a material were finished in this period, and the production order settlement calculates variances at the end of the period. Every single production order carries out an inventory coverage check and may therefore cause the moving average price to be changed. However, the individual production orders do not check whether the inventory available at the end of the period has already been debited by another production order.
Example: on 20 workdays in the period, 1 piece of material xyz was produced for each day and delivered to the warehouse at a price of USD 1000. At the end of the period there is 1 piece at the warehouse. Since an activity price of a participating cost center was higher than planned , every single production order calculates cost of goods manufactured of USD 1100 during the settlement. Every single one carries out a inventory coverage check and finds out that the variance can be posted completely to the inventory. That is, the ending inventory of one piece is debited with USD 20 x 100 and it consequently receives a price of USD 3000.
1. A settlement is carried out although not all costs have yet been posted to the order. This can even result in a price of 0 for the delivered product.
2. No period check of the costs is carried out on the order, that is, costs from previous periods may be settled.
3. Settling orders is already possible in the 'Delivery completed' status.
Solution: Standard price for products together with possible manual price changes.
If you are required to valuate semi-finished and finished products with actual prices that correspond to the costs of the actual production, SAP recommends you use the function of the material ledger for this. Here, a periodic actual price is created that is calculated on a much more reliable basis than the moving average price. A so-called price limiter quantity is used which makes sure that in the above example price differences are proportionally taken into account (95% of the total price differences) when valuating the 19 pieces withdrawn from material xyz which results in a periodic actual price of 1100 USD. In addition, it is possible as of Release 4.5 to even take into account the variances of the actual prices of the raw materials in the valuation of the semi-finished and finished products that are manufactured from it.

Moving Average Price---Intercompany sales process

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.

Hi,
In general i hope, system will not copy the moving average price from the material master through VPRS Condition. In case its not copied then you need to write the logic in alternative condition coloum to copy the moving averate price.
Please confirm whether VPRS is working for moving average price, if not then develop the logic as below -
based on Material and plant, go to table MBEW with selection as MATNR and WERKS bring the value from the field VERPR where VPRSV=V.
Plese confirm for my knowledge also

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.

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 !

Updating the Moving Average Price

We want to adjust the price of a material to account for storage overhead by adding 10% to the price. We have found procedures to modify the price if the price control is standard, but none for moving average prices.
     As I understand it, the moving average price is re-calculated for a material every time stock is received and the new value is stored in table MBEW (VERPR). Weve pretty well determined that we dont want this to change. Rather, it seems best to simply add 10% at goods issue time (and do a split valuation for the account assignment).
     Ive examined transaction MIGO for user exits and found a couple that look promising: EXIT_SAPM07DR_001 (Customer Function Exit: Material Document Item for GR/GI Doc) and EXIT_SAPM07DR_002 (Customer Function Exit: Acct Assgmt for Multiple Acct Assgmt). I didnt find any BADIs.
     Has anybody used these exits for this purpose? Are there other exits or BADIs that would be more appropriate? Does it make sense to change the price this way at all?
Thanks
Rob
Well, I got about the response I expected. I'll close it in a couple of days if no one has any ideas.

Hi Rob!
I found this thread again and started reading a little bit.
I can't follow your problem.
When you have PO and vendor invoice, then we should talk about goods <b>receipt</b>. Then it's quite usual to add additional values (like freight costs, taxes, customs...), which are not part of vendor invoice, but can be part of goods receipt value (depends on statistic flag).
When you have goods <b>issue</b>, then you have internal movement (to a different company code) or sales process. Then you should not increase goods value above moving average price - otherwise goods receipt of 100 PC and goods issue of same 100 PC won't end up with 0 value. Your revenue (for storage costs, handling fees, packing material...) can be added in an invoice for the sold goods - but that's not part of VPRS (stock value).
The question, if you display something in an outgoing invoice is just related to printing - internal documents can be larger.
Also selling based on saved conditions (not based on VPRS + surcharge) is an option -> free defined surcharge, no possibility for outsiders (personal in warehouse) to follow up the mark-up.
But I guess, your thinking about extension of an existing process: you might have already an unusual starting point for process design.
Work-around? Yes, I've heard of customers, where end-of-year balance is 'tuned' in excel before presentation to officials. There are many ways to solve a problem

Moving average price based on valuation type for material

Gurus help needed.
we want to maintain the moving average price of the material in the pricing, and this depends on the Valuation Type. We have 3 valuation types.
If valuation type is blank then one MAP(Moving average price) value will come and if nn one map will come and for nn one map will come.
We have copied VPRS conditon type to YVRP and changed conditon category as T( Moving cost).
But in pricing the YVRP price is not picking from valuation type which is blank.
Where can i make the settings to tell the system to pick the moving average price from the material master where the valution type is blank always based on the condition.
Do we need to creat a routine? If so is there any standard routine which we can use or make minor changes to it?
If it is a new routine please tell me how to start with VOFM?
Note : We need the value to come automatically from material master same as VPRS.

Hi
The first method is not to set the pricing condition VPRS as statistical.
Simply remove PR00 and it will work fine if you always use VPRS as your pricing base inside the pricing procedure.
VPRS will reads both prices based on the price control in the material master.
Price control S for standard price.
Price control T for moving average price.
It is this simple if you do not have any other "Prices" in the price procedure.
However, if you are using one pricing procedure where for some items you price using VPRS and some others using PR00, then you should use requirement routines to enable the correct price condition type at the right time.
The second method involves more work as you need to write a formula (VOFM) to get that information.
This is how it goes :-
1. Set VPRS to be the first step in the pricing procedure and to be subtotal B (as standard).
2. Set PR00 with alt. calc. type formula, which sets the value of PR00 to be equal to the subtotal B.
Step 1 VPRS statistical, subtotal B, reqt 4
Step 2 PR00 Altcty 600

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 avergae price updation in material master for project stock

Dear All,
My query is pertaining to updation of MAP( moving average price) for project specific procurement ( as project stock) for valuated project stock.
As definelty the cost of procurement gets consumed by project .but i want to know does the project stock procurement still updates the moving avergae price or not.
Ex:-Suppose MAP in material master is 10 USD ( with qty 1)and i procure the same material ( qty 1)for project with account assignment Q for 9 USD . now will the MAP in material master becomes 9.5 USD or it remains 10 usd.?
Please reply urgently
Regards
Amit

Hi Amit,
If your Project Stock is valuated, then, the valuation data for it is stored in a different table: QBEW.
The normal, anonymus warehouse stock (the unrestricted use stock which is not assigned to any project or to any sales order) has its valuation data stored in MBEW.
The "Accounting 1" view in the Material Master MM03 ONLY displays the data of MBEW.
In the material master you will never see the valuation data of the valuated project stock (table QBEW) or the valuated sales order stock (valuation indicator "M" - table EBEW).
The valuation data for the tables QBEW and EBEW can be seen in SE16 or in the transaction MBBS.
Also note that these valuated special stocks are managed independently of the normal stock. If, for example, you change the Moving Average Price of your normal stock in MBEW, this will not have any influence on your project stock, as the data is under a totally diferent table QBEW.
I hope this helps you,
Esther.

Moving Average Price for Sales stock and Project stock of a material

Hiya Gurus,
                 I am developing a report to display inventory details. My requirement is that I have to display the Moving average price of a material for all Valuation type. I also need to display the Moving average price if a material has got Project stock or Sales stock.
                 In MBEW table I can get the Valuation type and its Moving average price, but how can I find the moving average price for the same material if it has got Sales stock and project stock. Please let me know the table and field where I could get the relevant data.
                Kindly help me on this, it would be deeply appreciated.
Cheers,
ZIa

Hi
can you look at tables

Moving average Price for Material is Negative

HI Friends,
I am doing MIRO for PO where its giving me error while posting the Invoice that
Moving average price for material is negative
Can any please help me to resolve this.
what would be the implications if the price difference is too high b/w MAP in Invoice .
Thnaks
Purna Nalluri

It is ofcourse bcoz there is price difference in the between PO and IR....
so as per the calculations the MAP becomes negative....
The formula for it is :
Difference/Current stock holding + current moving average...
Pls check you price entered at PO and IR....
There are no any implecations...excepts the price differece is reflected in the MAP of MMR....
hope it helps...

Error: moving average price negative while doing MIRO

Hi Experts,
I am doing MIRo for PO where its giving me error while posting the Invoice that:
Moving average price for material is negative: XSEPSNPW045CX 1044
The MAP maintained in material master is 39,979.71 and in the invoice and GRN is 69,049.58.
Can any please help me to resolve this.
what would be the implications if the price difference is too high b/w MAP in Invoice amount.
and
what happen when we paintain the amount in mr21.
Regards,
Sonali.

Hi,
Pls check your price in MMR (MAP price) and then check the IR price of material ....
Example:
MMR MAP Price = 5.00 EUR
If IR price = 30 .00 Eur
IN YOUR CASE:
The MAP maintained in material master is 39,979.71
and in the invoice and GRN is 69,049.58.
So MAP PRice defined in the MMR is lesser than the IR price...
so the MAP will get negative...
Hope it helps...

Updation of Moving Average Price

Dear Experts,
My MM period is open for 2 months (i.e for July and August Now) . One of our raw material is Limestone.
From July 1st there were several Receipts and Issues of limestone in SAP.
In August 9th our survey team found that in our stock we have 25000 TON limestone excess. (Due to Callibiration error)
i.e If the current stock in system was 10000 TON the real Physical stock in storage was 10000 + 25000 TON.
We have created a Free of Cost PO for 25000 TON to account the excess quantity of Limestone in Stock.
MIGO Goods Receipt for the Free of Cost PO was done on 31.07.2011.
Because of the extra 25000 TON Free of Cost Limestone Receipt the Moving Average Price of the Material got Updated. (But only from 09-August-2011 not from 31-July-2011)
I want system to calculate the new moving average price and update all the documents posted from 31-July-2011. MY MM period is not closed.
Is it possible to do so and how. Please Help.
Thanks

Hi
The physical inventory is carried out on the basis of stock management units.A stock management unit is a non-divisible part of a stock of materials for which a seperate book inventory exists.A stock management unit is uniquely defined by
Material
Plant,storage location
Stock type
Batch
Special Stock
Each stock management unit of a material is counted seperately,and the inventory diffreneces are posted per stock management unit.
The physical inventory process comprises three phases
1)Creation of physical inventory documents(MI01)
2)Entry of Count(MI04)
3)Posting the difference(MI07)
1)In the first phase ,you create the physical inventory documents.SAP systems provide several procedures for mass-generation of PI documents.After selecting the stocks to be counted and creating the PI documents,you print out the documents in order to start the counting process.A physical inventory document cotains data that include
>The plant and storage location in which the count has to take place
>The date on which the count has to take place
>The materials to be counted
>the stock types to be counted
>The status of the item
>The status of the PI document
When creating a PI document,you can specify a physical inventory nuber in the document header.This physical inventory number facilitates selection of the PI documents to be processed during entry of the count data,posting the diffrences, and in evaluations.
2)Entering the physical inventory count:For the physical inventory count,you must print out the PI document and forward it to persons responsible for the count.You can enter the stock figures in the system with and without reference to a PI document.When entering the physical inventory count,you can enter a percentage variance of the count quantity from the book inventory,above which the system issues a warning message.
3)You can post the inventory diffrences either via list of differences or via seperate transactions.When an inventory difference is posted,the system creates a material document and corrects the stock figures,and an accounting document recording the necessary accounting movements.
Hope this will be helpful for you.

Sandesh Sawant

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 ?
Regards
