Actual costing and link to Co-PA

[Former Member]

All,

For a specific customer we will activate material ledger in combination with batch valuation (seems a little bit strange) but it is a trading company and they want to know the margin customer / vendor, therefor the batch will be the carrier in order to make this link.

However they want to update CO-PA with the actual cost on a periodically basis (e.g. weekly), so more frequently than the posting period. Is there a way to run the actual costing on let us a weekly basis to update CO-PA. The stock value is of less importance during the month. However as far as I know normally both are updated at the same time (after period closing) and normally it isn't possible to run it more often.

Can you please advice?

Hi,

It's not possible to execute the ML closing more frequently as when we run ML closing, the status of the material (for that particular period) will be updated to 70 - Closing Entry Completed and this will prevent any new posting to that particular period for that material.

I believed KE27 will only to update the CO-PA value based on calculated PUP price and the material has been revaluated.

Thanks,
