WIP Cumulative value(Material Ledger)

Hi,
We have executed the material ledger acutal cost WIP Transaction Code -- COMLWIPDISP. This t.code is reflecting the WIP Cumulative value which is inclusion of WIP Price difference. Cany anybody let me know how this value is calculating and in which t.code. In which table or function module we can see the WIP price difference value and cumulative value.
Regards,
Shree J

Hi SJ,
The below example will help you to understand your query:
SFG product standard cost is 90 ( as per the BOM materials).
Production/Process order is created, released and Raw material are issued to this Production/Process order. The status of this Order is not yet changed to TECO/CNF due to there are still some more operations has to be carriedout. So assume at this stage total cost is 100.
When you run your month activities like WIP/Variance/Settlement Calculation and also CKMLCP (Actual Costing Run).
After the month end activities, if you execute COMLWIPDISP, system will display Cummulative WIP value as 100 and difference 10.
Thanks and Regards,

Material Ledger -- WIP values

Hi,
We have material ledger functionality active and want to extract the WIP values based on the Production Order. Currently we are executing transaction Code CKMLWIPDISP for viewing the WIP details and the values in object currency and controlling area currency are appearing. We want to know the table which provides the above details
Can anybody suggest the table which will provide us the WIP values based on the Production corder incase if the material ledger active.
Regards,
Shree.

Higher activity price in cumulative run in Material Ledger

Hello,
Scenario:
The company is using material ledger and doing periodic run. After the periodic run, company post financial transaction and run cumulative run to take impact of financial transactions.
During cumulative run, system is using actual price of the last month and revaluation the cumulative qty with this price. Due to no catual activity, the prices are very high. Due to this, system is revaluating cumulative quantities of all months with very high price (of last month).
Please suggest to resolve this issue?

Hi Srinu,
Do you mean that, just after changing the KP26 values, u are expecting the same to reflect in your cost component structure of materials? KP26 is only to plan the price of an activity type in a cost center. This will be applicable for the future period. ie when operations are confirmed in production orders in future, this costs will be absorbed to the production order.
Use S_ALR_87013611 or similar reports for actual activity prices(debits) and actual activity quantities. Former divided by later will give you the actual per unit activity price for the last period.( in case of 1 to 1 relationship between cost center and activity).

Material Ledger Value Flow Monitor CKMVFM question

Hello,
I am researching the Value Flow Monitor report CKMVFM. On my test material, it is showing a balance in FI, and a red indicator on the FI/ML status. I assume this means there is a discrepancy between FI and Material Ledger, but I don't know how to go about researching this. I have completed all steps in the Closing Cockpit. How do I explain the difference between FI and ML, or go about reconciling the two? Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Please Refer OSS : Note 744090 - Value Flow Monitor: Explanation and recommendations

Revaluating COPA COGS with Material Ledger values (KE27-B0 curr type)

While attempting to use transaction KE27 to revaluate COPA with material ledger's cost component structure, we are getting an error for the B0 (Operating Concern Currency) records. The error (KE 435) states that "Costing Key ML1 does not exist". I have defined this costing key and it appears to be working for the Company Code (curr type 10) currency records. Does anyone have any idea why I am unable to restate the Operating Concern Currency records?

Hi Thomas,
The system posts the difference between the original values of the line
item and the new values in a new, separate line item, but in the same
value fields. To avoid the error message KE435 you have to define for
the costing key a value field for actual costs for your operating
concern in customizing :
Profitability Analysis -> Master Data -> Valuation ->
Set Up Valuation Using Material Cost Estimate ->
Define Access to Actual Costing/Material Ledger ->
Costing Key for actual Cost Estimate ->
Val.Fld Allocatn for Periodic Moving Average Price (total cost)
That is necessary even though you defined already value fields in
Cost component structure (cost component split) in customizing :
Profitability Analysis -> Master Data -> Valuation ->
Assign Value Fields (transaction KE4R)
The program expects both entries, one for cost component total cost
and several for cost component split. If there is a cost component
split defined for material the valuation will distribute the share of
costs to the value fields according the definition.
Only for material without a cost component split the program will
assign the costs to the value field for total costs.

Abhisek

Material Ledger New Status - 05 "Period Opened Without Stock"

Hello,
We are thinking of implementing note 1120562 into our system and feel pretty comfortable so far, but I had one question that is stopping me. If I implement this note and it applies the new status so that materials are not selected to run in the material ledger close, will that be an issue when closing next month? I know that previously I was not allowed to close for a material if it had not been closed in the prior month. Has anyone applied this status and had issues?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Rebe,
To see the transactions and documents for ML category in t-code CKM3 report i.e., Beginning Inventory--> choose "Expand sub tree" and choose the corresponding line. I guess these , period status quantities and values entered entries are for New period opening. Whenever the New period is opened, for New materials also, Material Ledger document will be created and updated in Material Price analysis report. The Material ledger records the following categories of data and the system generates ML documents automatically :
01.     Beginning Inventory
02.     Price change
03.     Receipts
04.     Other receipts/consumption
05.     Cumulative inventory
06.     Consumption
Also whenever Price determination for Material Master is changed from 02 to 03 or vice-versa, ML documents will be generated automatically and updates in Material Price Analysis report-t-code-CKM3.

Period Status in material ledger

Dear Gurus,
I am confused by period status in material ledger. Now, when displaying material price analysis with CKM3, period status is quantities and values entered. However, I checked MB51 and invoice. There is no material posting in the period. Even for some new material without any postings, the status is quantities and values entered as well. I wonder how the system sets the status. Could you please give a hint on it?
Thank and Regards,
Rebe Z.

Actual Costing/Material Ledger (CO-PC-ACT) - Actual costing

Hello,
I have same problem with actual costing in material Ledger.
When I perform the actual costing a price differences that belongs to materials (orders) which at the end of the period are WIP, remain not split and don not book them on Accruals and defer.acct(material ledger) (OBYC - Transaction LKW).
Moreover, in the following month, system does not taking into account the value.
Does anybody had similar problem or knew how tu handle it?
Thanks in advance,
Rafal

Hi Rafal,
there is a functionality built into acual costing to cover this:

Material ledger is not active in valuation area C002

Dear All,
I have a Scheduling Agreement for a material 'A' with Vendor 'V' with diff prices with validity dates, I did the GR & when i am posting the invoice thro' miro, system is throwing error as above Material ledger is not active in valuation area C002 Why should I activate the material ledger here ? Pls suggest how can i solve this ?
regds,
Kallu

Hi
For a Particular material, Material Ledger is active or not? Can be checked in Accountig view of Material Master.
Why we need Material Ledger?
A fundamental task of the material ledger is carrying inventories in multiple currencies and/or
valuations.
Material inventory values are normally carried by the SAP system in one currency. The material
ledger component enables the R/3 System to carry inventory values in two additional
currencies/valuations. Therefore, all goods movements in the material ledger are performed in up
to 3 currencies or valuations. Currency amounts are translated into foreign currencies at
historical exchange rates directly at the time of posting. Businesses such as those in highinflation
countries can therefore carry their inventories in a more stable currency (such as US
dollars). This reveals inflationary effects on inventory values.
If you use transfer prices to represent value flows in your company in different
valuation views, you must use the material ledger. This allows you to carry your
inventories in three different valuations (legal valuation, valuation for reporting
purposes, and profit center valuation).
Before activating the material ledger, make sure you know which currencies and valuations
you want to use, because you cannot go back and change the setting.
Activating the material ledger is a prerequisite for using multiple valuations.
Thanks
Raman

Material Ledger - confirmation in different months

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem as follows:
We are using material ledger for actual costing. When we post partial confirmation for a production order in period t, goods receipt and goods issue is posted for period t. However, in some cases, confirmation is posted although one material has not arrived at the factory yet and that material is not assembled on the finished product in period t, but it is assembled in period t+1. In this case, when we close material ledger, we receive an error as "there are nondistributed rows" in transaction CKM3. How can I solve this problem either in logistics side or financial side?
Thanks and cheers,
Fatih Zenginer

Hi Faith,
Are you familiar with transaction CKMVFM - Value Flow Monitor? You can analyze Not Distributed differences with this transaction. The price limiter is the key.
Thanks,
Greg

Material ledger Tables

Dear All,
Issue: Not able to post Good receipt due to the error that material does not exit.
Background: we have activated user exit in material master for material type ZROH and assigned a internal number range to it in MMNR. this user exit will append the material group mentioned during master creation in the internal code generated by system.
example PPMM is the material group and the internal code generated by system is 122222 so when we save the material in mm01 our material code is PPMM122222.
we are trying to do GR by 501 and now the material ledger function module is truncating PPMM from the material code and its trying to post document with 1222222. which then goes into error that material does not exist.
Analysis: I have checked in the MARA/MARC the material code is PPMM1222222. but i guess in some table whcih is relevant for material ledger system has stored internal material number 1222222.
So I am looking for tables or solution for this isssue

Hi Expert,
Please refer the SAP Standard Material Ledger Tables:
The following tables contain data that can appear in the material ledger documents:
Table - MLHD - Material Ledger Document: Header
Table - MLIT- Material Ledger Document: Items
Table - MLPP - Material Ledger Document: Posting Periods and Quantities
Table - MLPPF - Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Posting Periods and Quantities)
Table - MLCR - Material Ledger Document: Currencies and Values
Table - MLCRF - Material Ledger Document: Field Groups (Currencies and Values)
Table - MLCRP - Material Ledger Document: Price Change (Currencies, Prices)
Table - MLMST - Material Ledger Document: Costing Run Header Data

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.

VPRS Cost in Material Ledger

hi all,
i have some problem here.
we use 2 local currency. first local currency is IDR, and second local currency is USD.
our client use material ledger, so in material master accounting 1, we maintain 2 value of inventory (in IDR and USD)
let say we create material XXX (using standard price) in 01 jan 2011 , with IDR value 1,000,000. the system will convert to USD with exchange rate in 01 jan 2011 (which is 10,000). so the USD value will be 1,000,000/10,000 = 100 USD.
then in 10 january 2011, Sales order is created for material XXX with document currency USD .
cond type VPRS get 1,000,000 IDR and covert to doc Curr (USD) with exchange rate in 10 jan 2011 (which is 9,000).
so the VPRS value in USD will be 1,000,000/9,000 = 111,11 USD.
by this case, the VPRS value in sales order is DIFFERENT with value in Material Master. it also become a problem when we want to see PROFIT MARGIN.
can cond type VPRS get the correct USD value according to Material Master?
thanks.
Best Regard,
Hendry

Cost of goods manufactured vs COGS+ Material ledger

Hi Experts,
My company is implenting Material Ledger. They want to see the actual cost of goods manufactured. We are able to develop the actual cost of goods sold in COPA. The required report is to show:
1- Direct material used at standard + variances (price + usage) to give the actual.
2- Direct labor (standard + variances = Actual)
3- Manufacturing overhead ( standard + variances = Actual)
Attached excel file is showing the requirement.
Your guidance to develop this report by any means (Report painter, BI, other).
Regards
Ahmed Zain Hassan

Hi Ahmed / Ajay.
1. In order reports KKO0, you dont see the revaluation of ML, as you said Consumption and Activities are revaluated at Material level, and as far as i know, theres no way to add records that represent the revaluation.
2. The easy way to have a Order Report revaluated at actual cost is with LIS(Logistic InfoSys), creating a Z infostructure (eg copy lis S027) that store consumption and activity QTY, and a user exit that read the actual cost of consumed materials (depending if this is V, S2, S3) and activities and revaluate. In LIS, there are standard way to "re-post" or repopulate the infostructures. This LIS can be reported with the standard functions (ReportPainter, quers on SQ01), or create a Z tcode that show the info stored in the way you want. Problem: Not all know how to customize LIS, and also you need code in the exit.
3. In my country (Peru), there are lots of companies that develop a Z Kardex valuated at actual cost (because, is a legal requirement), and also create Zprograms that calculate the order at actual cost (indeed, i create this reports twice). Its a bit complex, but not impossible and depends on custo EG if you have multiple valuations, you need to write code in order to get the infor for this specific valuations.
4. About COPA, you can post to copa the Actual Cost Component Split calculated by ML. In this CCS, you can identify the Labor, Direct Materials, and overheads. You have 2 options, You can post the delta to the original field or have an aditional field that store the difference. This stuff is done in KE27, i see 1 example in the SCN (i guess i bookmarked). Its important to understand you dont have the detail of the delta per consumed material, just an agregated value.
Here is the link
http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPFI/KE27+Periodic+Valuation
5. There is a new ML DrillDown report functionality. Indeed, i couldnt spend time analizing the solution (my test system is with EHP5 and dont plant to upload the OSS), but i guess this is the future. You can look for info with tcode KKML0 in the marketplace, also check this oss 1639462 - ERP accelerators: enhancements in ML drilldown reporting
My questions:
What you want?
+ Order Report, i mean Cost detaild per Order? The Actual CCS por order?
+ Material Report? I mean, the monthly average of a Fert, and its CCS ?
+ a PA Report, that show Sales (Incomes), and Costs per matiral , split by Direct, Labor and OverHead?
Arturo.
