Dear PS experts,
I am facing an issue in case of actual costs in 'valuated project stock' scenario.
The scenario is as following:
1. A material(assembly) is attached to network having planned costs as 100 Euros.
2. The planned costs for project is also now 100 Euros.
3. This material is assembly made from using 2 materials.
4. The assembly is made by subcontractor.
5. The breakup of the costs is 80 euro for 2 material components and 20 euro as subcontracting charges.
6. When I run MRP and covert a req. to PO, the commitment is 20 euro for subcontracting order and 80 euro for material components PO.
7. After I receive the 2 material components in stock, the actual cost(statistical cost element is hit) for project becomes 80 euro.
8. When I send these components to the supplier and he converts it into assembly material, at GR the entries are like this:
a. Commitment is reduced of 20 euro, actual cost is incurred for 20 euro for subcontracting charges.
b. The consumption is booked for 2 components(movement type 543), actual cost incurred is 80 euro.
So total actual costs at this stage is 100 euros.
9. Now the assembled material is issued against network activity ( movement type 281 Q), this again updates the the consumption at project with value 100 euro.
In this way, I am seeing the actual cost at project is 200 euro. I think it is not correct, does anybody have any opinion on this. I am not able to understand if it is related to valuation categories.
If you are having any clue about it, please let me know. Thanks in advance !
