Price Differences for Subcontract Orders at Goods Receipt (SAP Library - Inventory Management and Physical Inventory)

Price Differences for Subcontract Orders at Goods Receipt

In this step, you configure for each valuation area whether price differences are generated for a subcontract order at the time of a goods receipt if the manufactured material is managed at standard price and the standard price varies from the receipt value (externally performed service + value of components + delivery costs).

Example

Finished product: $400 (value at standard price)

Subcontract order:

Ext. service : $250

Components : $100

Posting schema without price differences:

Stock account FERT : 400 +
Stock change : 400 -
GR/IR clearing acct : 250 -
External service acct : 250 +
Compon. stock account : 100 -
Consumption account : 100 +

Posting schema with price differences:

Stock account FERT : 400 +
Stock change : 350 -
Price difference : 50 -
GR/IR clearing acct : 250 -
