Process order confirmation and reversal showing different amount

[Former Member]

Hi Sap Expertise,

I have came across to such scenario for Process Order Confirmation and reversal.

1. Order Confirmation - Mov. Type 101

Inventory  --- Dr 23,189.15

COGM ------- Cr 23,189.15

2. Order Confirmation reversal - Mov. Type 102

Inventory  --- Cr 23,189.15

COGM ------- Dr 40,758.42

Prod. Var.--- Cr 17,569.27

I want to know in which sense SAP is calculating Prod Variance?

What are the possible reasons to clarify whether  posted amounts are right or wrong.

Thanks in Advance....

Regards

Sagar

Hi

At the time of GR mov 101 Inventory was received at standard price maintained in MMaster if the price control is maintained as "S" and same value has gone to your COGM

Now when you reversing the entry some other expenses has booked in your order and COGM cost has gone up...so when you reversing the whole GR qty the diff amount of COGM is posted to PRD a/c

If you give the details of your process and mat status like Price control etc ..it can be explained further.. But I think this will put some light on your query

Hi Kamal Kumar,

First of all thanks for prompt reply!

The price ind. in Material is S.

Is there any way to identify for posted Prd Diff. is based on which values. Posted Prod. 17,569.27 is calculated from which expenses.

If there is any standard report in SAP.

Thanks

Go to COR3 and analyze your process order by selecting

  Goto menu bar > cost> analysis

You will find various layout to analyse your costs and the source of data so that can identify the reasons..

If any further query after analysing, pl revert back

Hi

  Only doc which you have referred to having doc date at oct 2014 but posting date sept 2014 but all other transaction are within sept 2014..

The reason of diff lies there...you have posted a doc having value for oct in last month and must have two diff price/standard cost

  pl check

HI Sagar,

I tried to explain with my own example in below

you may confirmed the production order with 100 rs in previous month

Dr Stock a/c 100

Cr COGM a/c 100

And fresh standard cost has released in MM for the first day of  current month say 120.

when you reverse the confirmation in the current month the system will look for the current standard price.

Dr COGM a/c 120

Cr Stock a/c   100

Cr Price Diff a/c  20

Hello Sagar,

Kindly check, whether any unplanned material is issued to production order after confirmation and before reversal of production order. 

If yes, then unplanned value will be shown as a PRD difference.

Hello Vinayak,

In my case i have posted order on 22.09.2014 and reversed immediately on a same date without any further issues on order.

Order is posting production variance...

Thanks

Have you not done any confirmation also?

May be you didn't issue any materials...I told you to check cost analysis in COR3 and send the screen shots if you have prob to understand..but sorry you didn't.. help others to settle the issue

Hi Sagar,

First check the price changes made for the material in MM03. There might be price changed after you did 101 movement type. Due to this it is posting to price diff.at reversing.

Hi Sagar,

I have checked the screen shot and observed that the transactions which has posted in EUR currency there total balance is 0. If we check the balance in reporting currency there might have difference. May I know what is your reporting currency? There might be exchange rate difference between 101 & 102, due to this it has posted in price variance.

Please check and  let me know.

Regards,

Mukthar
