Dear All,
I have a basic question regarding FI in business side.
We have a case where several Production Orders still have balance.
The orders are not needed anymore and to be deleted, so we want to balance the Orders.
The cause is that, because the Good Issue (261) and the reversal (262) have different value, even though the quantity is same. (we are using MAP Price Control)
This is because user reverse the GI using MB1A, not using MBST.
So for example, the GI is 100KG with value 100$
but the reversal is 100KG with value 99$
To solve this, we have 2 options:
A. cancel the 262 material document, and then cancel again the 261 material document with MBST, so that the 1$ will go back to Inventory. The problem is that since this is old Production Order (last year), then we can only post it in this open period.
B. Settle the Production Order, but because there is no GR, then the posting will go to P/L (Transaction PRD)
Now, the questions are:
1. From the Business Point of View, which one is better? I know, the value seems to be small so it is insignificant. But we have several orders, and some of them have quite big values.
2. If we use Option A, what is the impact from the business point of view, if we suddenly have value changes in Inventory in different Period? Is there issue with Auditor or anything like that?
I understand that this is a basic questions, but I searched around SCN, and I didn't find a discussion like this. Most is just asking from the system point of view if there is an error or how to config etc, so I open this thread.
Appreciate your help
Thanks,
Steve
