Hi there,
We have a scenario whereby the client creates Purchase Orders for materials whose prices change mid-way after some of the orders have been partially invoiced. For instance, at the time of creating the Purchase Order, the price of the material was at US$10 and the quantity of the material is 5 meaning the total Purchase Order value should be US$50 (Material Price US$10 x Quantity 5). This scenario depicts a partial goods issue/invoicing.
Now, if 2 items are invoiced, at US$20 (Material Unit price x quantity 2) the Purchase Order remaining 3 quantities. On the Purchase Order the remaining Purchase Order will have 3 quantities and the price as US$30.
Now the client prices keep changing and would like the new prices to reflect on the already created Purchase Orders. For instance if the price changed from US$10 per that specified material to US$12, the client wants that price to be updated on the already created PO for the unprocessed items. It is desired that the remaining PO should be able to update from US$30 (material price US$10 x Quantity 3) to US$36 (material price US$12 x Quantity 3).
Is this possible in SAP MM?
If possible, how can this be achieved? Any other way of accomplishing this?
We are dealing with moving prices and markets that are unpredictable.
Please advise.
Thanks.
Kind regards,
Dave
