COPA - Costing Estimate

[Former Member]

Hi All

We are facing the problem in updating the value fields of standard material cost, sytem some time updating this field and some time does not at the time of creation of PA document. In both cases the material is same . Record type is F.

Can u guys elaborate what might be the issue?

Hi Usman,

The settings are always related to costing key which is linked to a material. So if one invoice is updating the value fields of the std cost estimate and another invoice is not for the same material, i can think of only one situation where your std cost estimate is not valid when you made the second invoice. If not let's wait for the experts or raise an SAP message.

Hi,

to analyze the problem (are you talking about material valuation with standard cost estimate or the condition VPRS that is missing) check the following steps:

1: is a CO-PA document created in both cases (one with material cost estimate one without)?

2. Check if you find a difference in the billing documents (document type,...)

3: Check KE4W transaction, maybe a value field is it resetted for one of your billing types?
