SAP Note 184770 - Freight costs, ML, and purchase account need PRD

Component : Basic Functions - Actual Costing/Material Ledger

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/184770 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
When freight costs in SAP are incorrectly posted to the purchasing freight account instead of the price difference account during goods receipt, it leads to incorrect price adjustment calculations in systems with an active material ledger. To resolve this, modifications to table T001K are required, specifically adding fields XEFRE and EFREJ, and adjusting transaction logic for posting. Activation and implementation of these changes, along with updates to the DM07M structure, ensure correct accounting for freight costs. This note also details prerequisites and the outcome of implementing such changes across various SAP releases from 3.0 onwards.
