Can anyone Explain?
helloCan anyone explain the complete meaning with example of following statement..."Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity".RegardsGalaxy

Answer 1

Suppose you have material A with zero stock.Material A is valuated at a moving average price.The company orders 3 pieces of material A at a unit price of 50 Euro,making a total of 150 Euro (forget the VAT for now).They receive the goods at the PO price:they now have a stock of 3 for a value of 150.Then they issue 1 at a value of 50 Euro:they now have a stock of 2 for a value of 100.Then they receive an invoice for 3 at a unit price of 10 Euro,making a total of 30 Euro.At the moment of invoice verification only 2 are in stock,for those 2 the price difference will be booked to the valuation (100 of stock value minus 2 times 40 Euro price difference makes a new stock value of 20 Euro).For the one missing in stock the price difference is posted to PRD.It can become even more interesting than this.Suppose that between the moment of issue of the one and the invoice receipt another goods receipt is made (for a new purchase order) of 1 piece at a unit price of 10 Euro.The stock after this goods receipt would be 3 pieces at a value of (100+10)=110 Euro,making the moving average price 120/3=approximately 33.33.Then the invoice for the 3 comes at a unit price of 10 Euro,making a total of 30 Euro.SAP only compares the present stock with the invoiced quantity:as long as the present stock is at least as great as the invoice quantity,all price differences are posted to the stock value.This means in our case that the total price difference of 120 Euro would be deducted from the present stock value:110-120=-10.This would generate an error message since negative moving average prices are not allowed (-10/3=-3.33).查看原帖>>
