Price calculation

[Former Member]

Dear friends,

We have a client requirement where only basic price is maintained while creating the purchase order but all other prices (Tax, freight, insurance etc.) will be summed up and entered while posting the invoice in the present legacy system. Because in legacy system there is no linkage between the accounts payable entries with purchasing and Inventory postings. They will maintain manually in books the amount against tax and other book for amount against freight etc.

When we are implementing SAP, client want it in same way like entering only basic price in the purchase order and all other pricing elements need to be maintained in the Invoice posting. I need clarification on below points .....

1. Is there any way we can enter pricing conditions directly while posting invoice with value of each condition type?

2. We know that when we post GR system will update MAP automatically as per PO price, similarly if post invoice with different value MAP will get adjusted with Invoice unit cost. But the issue is we can't assure the IR is followed immediately with GR. So if we do Goods issue in between then MAP will not consider the issued quantity, is there anyway to update the issued qty with same invoice price?

Also I am not able to get which G/L account the difference amount is going?

3. The requirement in brief is MAP always should update with Invoice price but not with PO price even there is an issue for this material?

Please share your thoughts...

Best Regards

Hello Varsit,

In your case you can think of unplanned delivery cost concept

I dont think there is other way to upload this unplanned delivery cost on inventory if stock is not available.

When the stock is not available to unplanned delivery cost then it will post the appropriate amount to price difference G/L account (Key PRD) so check OBYC transaction.

Hope this helps.
