Replacement-Cost Valuation Reports

Use

In the Inflation Accounting solution for Materials Management (MM), the replacement-cost valuation reports enable you to revaluate materials for inflation, as follows:

Market Price Determination

The system searches through various system documents to determine a replacement cost based on real market prices.

Inflation Index Adjustment

The system revaluates materials on the basis of an inflation index.

Goods Issue Revaluation

Once you have revaluated your materials with a replacement cost determined via the market price or the inflation index, you can revaluate goods issues for these materials.

Prerequisites

You have made all Customizing settings, as described under Inflation Accounting for Materials Management (MM), as well as the settings described in the individual reports.

Inflation Accounting must be activated for MM in the inflation method assigned to your company code.

If the system is to post a replacement cost resulting from Market Price Determination or Inflation Index Adjustment as a price change, the appropriate indicator must be set in the inflation method and you must select Update run on the selection screen of the individual report.
