Hello Friend...

Go to the material master in the change mode (MM02) . In the Accountings 1 Tab page go to the field "Price Control" where you can pick either S or V which means Standard or Moving average price respectively.On the basis of this selection system will pick standard or Moving Avg price.

You can utilize this cost in case of intercompany billing or incase of special sales.

For this we are using the condition type VPRS. The steps to be followed are

1) Acitivate determine cost field in item categaroy of that item in VOV7...

2) In pricing procedure please activate VPRS as mandatory condition type..So that VPRS will displayed in sales document

3) In the condition type VPRS (through V/06) , ensure that it contains condition category "G".

4) In the Pricing Procedure (V/08) , mark condition type as"Statistical.

Hope I have explained you the usage and how to use the standard and moving average price of a material .

Kindly REWARD if you find this informative..

Thanks,

Standard price - fixed price ,no change.

Moving average price - will be change when P/O completed every time ,it can reflect actual price condition otherwise P/O inforecord should be maintain accurately or will cause big trubles in cost

Hi,

Standard price- is that which remains without changing over a extended period. constant price at which a material is valuated taking goods movements and invoices into account.

Moving price is thatchanges in consequence of goods movements and entry of invoices and which is used to evaluaste material.
