Problem when uploading initial inventory with Material Ledger

Former Member

Dear Experts,

When I uploading initial inventory, the standard price come from the current price, and we upload the quantity of the material with this current price. After we have BOM , Routing, create cost estimate again by CK11N, marking by ck24 but could not release this cost estimate. Product Cost Collector is created ok but when backflush, the system raise error "no active standard cost estimate exists"

The key that sure we could not release cost estimate from BOM and Routing because we could not change the price in the period when Material Ledger is active. So how to continue produce in PP ?

Or how to upload initial inventory with Material ledger ?

Thank you very much,

Dat Lam

First release your standard cost estimates and then upload the stock. If you do the initial stock entry with external prices then price differences will result that would bring the actual costs at period end back to the costs from the external source.

So, by this procedure you will have a valid cost estimate and you keep stock values stable from your predecessor systems.
