      hi sateesh

      i am getting the following error message during settlement

      Moving average price for material is negative: G035018P2105 1200 IN HOUSE

      Message no. M8783

      Diagnosis

      This item would create a stock value posting which would result in a negative moving average price for the material.

      Note:

      The category of this message can be changed in Customizing for Invoice Verification. This means that you can receive a message as an error message even though it is defined as a warning message in the standard system.

      The following documentation deals with the case applicable to the standard system only.

      System Response

      The system does not allow a negative moving average price.

      Procedure

      Check your entry in the field "Amount" and correct it if necessary.

      If your entry is correct, check the following for the material

      the stock value

      (Environment -> Master data info -> Display material)

      the posting history

      (Environment -> Line items -> For material).

      It might be necessary to cancel past postings (for example, incorrectly valuated goods receipts or incorrect price changes), before you can carry out your posting.

      If you wish to carry out a price change, the total stock of the material may be negative. A price cannot be changed if the stock is negative.

      Thanks

    Sandeep,

    have you used Bye-products in this order. What I can guess is your byeproducts cost must be getting more than what you actually input.

    If there are byeproducts, please check the material master accounting view of these products and check the prices given. I dont see any other possibility of creating such error.
