S_ALR_87099931 - JPN - Generate Price versus Cost Estimate
Purpose The standard report Price versus Cost Estimate (S_ALR_87099931) is used to check the amount of the variance between a new cost estimate and the existing standard price, and thereby to see how releasing the cost estimate for all materials with price control S would affect the value of the total inventory. This report is typically executed before the standard price is updated with the cost estimate values calculated in a costing run. Note that the price control is selected as standard price (S) to eliminate materials valuated at moving average price (V) as these are affected by standard cost estimate release. In addition, you can define exceptions to emphasize critical variances, so that materials, with calculated variance or anticipated revaluation amount exceeding predefined threshold values, will be highlighted with traffic lights symbols. Trigger Perform this transaction when you need to generate price versus Cost Estimate Report. Menu Path Use the following SAP Easy Access menu path(s) to begin this transaction: Accounting > Controlling > Product Cost Controlling > Product Cost Planning > Information System > Summarized Analysis > Analyze Costing Run > S_ALR_87099931 - Price vs Cost Estimate
