Inforecord Price is not taken in Costing-CK11N

[Former Member]

Hi,

While executing costing run for a Material (Procurement Type F(External)), i am expecting the info record price to be picked (as per the valuation variant) for costing.

However, i dont see it picked. I have checked the validity, vendor block etc., everything seems ok.

Do you suggest.

Hi Ajay,

Thank you very much for your help.

I am not able to understand why system is not able to generate costing price per kg as per info record price (currently it shows 1.07 EUR) when we launch CK11n with costing lot size 1 kg though we maintained price per kg in inforecord (EUR 1.11).

Kind Regards

Hi

Rounding off after calculating the whole cost estimate is a normal behaviour....

So, if your costing lotsize and Price Unit, both are high i.e. say, 1000 - Then rounding differences are minimized...

Also, if you have alternate UoM in your scenario, that can also be one of the reasons....

Try by increasing your costing lotsize and Price unit.. You may also maintain your info record for a higher qty

Hi Ajay,

Thanks and yes we had a ordering unit different from Base Unit and there is a conversion of 16.1 kg per 100 pcs.

But, i was trying to match the costing lot and info record price per unit of costing lot.

No problem, i hope i will learn more on this.

Thank you very much on help.

Hi,

Thank you very much for replies. Actually my problme looks some thing to do with conversion. Not sure.

Infact system is reading the info record price, however not very correctly. When i change the costing lot size to 100 KG while executing CK11N (costing lot size in Material master is 1 KG), the costed value is some how very close to per unit price (if i devide manually by the units, but if i select price unit in the costed results, i get exactly as per Info record.

Thanks to suggest.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Costing lot size should always be big enough to cater to various prices properly

Usually, keeping a lot size of 1000 is preferred

Hi

Refer this post

Also, Is your info record marked for Outline Agreements? If yes, then System behaviour is right.. however, it can be changed using note 499699

Hi,

Also, i find that the vendor is not taken in costing. How can a right vendor can be picked in costing when there are more than one info record exist for a Material. How to bring in a vendor in costing?
