You can write material cost estimates to the material master as prices (as a standard price, for example). Before you update costing results to the material master, you should use the reports in the information system to check the costing results. Under the category Summarized Analysis, you find for example the report Price versus Cost Estimate with which you can compare the results of a costing run with a price in the material master.
