Example: Change in Material Prices/Revaluation Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Assume the price of a material M1 from the plant 001 rises from 1500.00 to 1600.00. The "income from revaluation" is assigned to the profit center of the material (here P100). The stock quantity is 100 units. The result is the following posting:

FI posting

stock

10,000.00

 

to

income from revaluation

10,000.00

(PrCtr P100)

 

Revaluation leads to the same posting. Here the price is not changed, but the total value of stock rises or falls. You still get the same posting.

Note

In this example, the profit and loss accounts do not need to have been created as cost elements in order to be transferred to Profit Center Accounting. If they are cost elements and are assigned to a cost center, the amounts would be posted to the profit center of a cost center.

If your company is divided into profit centers according to products, this is generally not desirable.
