Question for MSEG - BUALT

[Former Member]

Hi MM Gurus,

Could you please any one explain how system calculate the value for the field MSEG - BUALT ?

Some time it is equal to the GR/IR clearing value some time it is not?

Hello Senthil ,

The MSEG-BUALT field is only a statistical field.

If you post a material movement , the price that is updated into valuation for the material can be found in table MSEG , in the field

DMBTR.

Table MSEG contains the value of the amount of the valuation update in the material master in field DMBTR. The field BUALT has ONLY statistical meaning if you have a material with S-price. If your material has moving average price , BUALT will be ZERO. The field MSEG-BUALT is the value that would be used by V-price-control , in the field MSEG-DMBTR.

The system determines this value from external values or info-records.

MSEG-BUALT shows the value (for s-price controled materials) which the system had had posted if the material has been

v-price controled. MSEG-BUALT is the value the system would determine for MSEG-DMBTR if the material would be v-price controled.

I hope this information has been helpful.

Best Regards,

Frank
