Hiya,

"Post Closing" using CKMLCP updates the Material Master "Periodic Unit Price" and the "Value/Periodic Unit Pr" fields (Accounting 1).

Since your ML is active, the system does not appreciate your changing the price mid-month.

Have you run a Standard Cost Estimate for the current period? It is easier to change the price for the material when you have a marked standard cost estimate or have maintained a future price.

Have you tried using LTPC?

Cheers.

Hiya,

- What are you planning to do here?

- What is the Price Determination in use (2 or 3)?

- Since ML is active, is the Price Control of the material is "S"?

When ML is active, it gets update with all material movements during the month. At month-end, you can then perform ML closing to update your COGS and Stock accounts with the Actual Costs.

Normally you would use MR21 to maintain a price change or, in some cases, to input a Standard Cost Estimate for a material during a period in which material movements have already taken place.

If you provide some details, I may be able to help better.

Cheers.

Yes,the material price control is S

i know you perform ML closing to update COGS and Stock, does Updating Stock mean the price in material master changed? or the price in ML changed?
