i have changed the material price in 31/12/2010 and we are in period 01/2011

but the moving price doesn't changed in period 01/2011 its still the old price.

i want to know why the system didn't change the price for period 01/2011

and i want to change the price for now and all next periods.?

Hi,

you are using moving average price and not standard price.

You can change standard price thru costing run. you can't change moving average price it is calculated based on procurement. further you can change thru MR21 but beware it will generate revaluation entry that will have financial impact.

If you still has doubt then please elaborate the requirements.

Hi,

Since you have passed a back dated entry the Moving Average price as on January is not changed, it just changed the value as of 31/12, and again restored it to original as of January.

So, you shud post Mr21 again for current date in January.

Had you done MR21 on 31.12 - system would have carried forward same value in jan.
