You can changeth eprice control from S to V or V to S. Once you change the way accounting entries follow will change.

No need to go form new material.

Are you using ML?

If ML is there then we need to be careful....

Dear,

ML is meterial ledger.

It is used in following cases.

- You have mutliple currencies and to see the stock in differnt currancies.

- You want to see the variances to be carried to different levels of BOM and see the periodic price of the product even though the price control is S.

Hence system will count all the variances and during ML closing steps calculate the variances and send to the higher level of BOM after chaning the periodic price of that raw materil. Hence at higest product level you will come to know exact production cost as well as level by level subassembly cost.

With this cost you can revaluate the material so that the S price will change to this periodic price.

Dear Rajesh

My question is once I change Material price with price control -v value (80rs),

& once I redo cost run through ck11n & relese it through ck24,will there be a change in price,how this will affect.

When You have a Stock for that material with Valuation V and you change that in to Standard price the Whole value of the Stock gets in to Price Difference Accounts . After that if You Run a cost Estimate and Update the Same it goes and Updates The Standrad Price By that Period which you have maintained say Last period , Present or Future Period It depends on the Valuation Variant , Costing Variant you define.

Reward If it is useful
