Any Material locked for transactions due to errors in Material Ledger?

[Former Member]

We are implementing Material Ledger for actual costing purpose. After ML implemention, will there be any situation due to errors in costing run, or otherwise, that the material is locked for any further transaction? Is such kind of threat exists under any situation?

Dear Sanjay,

I don't think you will face any problem after succesfully completion of actual cost run.

Situation can be totally opposite...I mean to say while costing run you might face problem of material locking.

There could be problem if transaction in material is happening and same time cost run is going on. or if cost run is going on and the same time somebody is trying any transaction.

It is always suggested to run cost cycle in the night or lock the user id's while cost run.

Hi Rupesh,

Thanks for your responce. I would rather put a very specific question.

1.IF due to wrong transaction posted, actual cost works out to be negative i.e. negative material consumption i.e. manual 262 or 532 with wrong quantity. This means there is big positive variance. Does this create any issues in locking the material for any transactions after actual costing run?

Hi,

Actual cost run on its own wont lock any material.
