Hello, to prove the average price of a material in SAP for a certain period and check if the value is correct, you can consider the following steps: 1. Determining the relevant period: First, you should clarify which period was relevant for the original calculation. This is important because the average price may change depending on the bookings entered in this period. 2. Using SAP transactions for price analysis: - MB51 - Material voucher list: Here you can check all material movements for a specific period. This allows you to see all incoming and outgoing movements that could affect the average price. - MR51 - Material Accounting Line Items: This transaction shows the line items for material accounting, which can be helpful to see details of each posting. - CKM3 - Material Price Analysis: This transaction is very useful to look at the development of the average price of a material over time. You can set the time period and retrieve the historical average prices. 3. Documentation and record keeping: - Create documentation that includes all relevant information from the SAP transactions. Calculate the average price based on the collected data to verify the value. 4. Check data consistency: - Ensure that all material movements have been recorded correctly and that there are no incorrect postings.
- Compare the calculated average price with the average price displayed in SAP systems to identify differences immediately. 5. Communication and reporting: - Create a clear and understandable report documenting the average price as used for your previous calculation. This can be in the form of a table or chart showing the price changes over time - Explain in your report the purpose of providing evidence and the methodology of your calculation If you have completed these steps, you should be able to effectively demonstrate the average price used for the calculation and confirm its accuracy.
