Define Price Control for Material Types

There are two types of price control in the SAP R/3 System:

• V price/ periodic unit price

• S standard price

For each material, you must specify the price control in the material master record according to which the material is to be valuated. You do so using the price control indicator.

Under the menu option "Price control", you can specify for each material type that, when creating a material of this material type, a certain price control indicator is

• proposed

• stipulated

Standard Settings

Price control is preset as follows in the standard SAP R/3 System:

• moving average for materials procured externally

• standard for in-house produced materials

Recommendation

SAP recommends using the presetting for each material type.
