Material ledger startup

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

We are already live on SAP and planning to go-live with material ledger at Dec 28th. What are the settings I need to check before 28th and what are the implications of the all the postings for Dec once I activate it on 28th. Do i need to complete the closing process or how do I do that?

Please suggest.

Hi,

There is no time constraint for activation of Material Ledger. Before activation of ML, specifically for ML you need not to check any period-end activities. You can continue with your usual FICO closing process. As per process, if you activated the ML for your Valuation Areas, initial preliminary Valuation/Price Control Type for all materials will be u201CStandardu201D. During the period ML will record all Goods Movements Price/FOREX differences posted through different MM related transactions i.e., Goods Issue, GR and Invoice in Price/FOREX differences categories. If you have activated ML on Dec., 28th, price/FOREX differences will be recorded from that date. You need to complete ML period-end activities through T-code-CKMLCP-Costing Cockpit, system will automatically take the average of Price/FOREX differences from different transactions and calculate Periodic Unit Price for Material per Plant. Based on this price, we can get the Actual Product Costing of that material and Inventory Valuations for future period.
