Purpose
In the component Actual Costing/Material Ledger, you can perform multilevel actual costing by plant during a costing run. This allocates the follow-up costs to the semifinished and finished products, and the differences against a material’s preliminary valuation price to the material's inventory and consumption. This is accomplished with the functions of single-level and multilevel price determination. The recalculated prices can then be used for future valuation.
