Summary :
This SAP Note addresses discrepancies in the material ledger price affecting the actual price of the period due to returns and positive inventory differences. These movements are wrongly classified under procurement categories, falsifying true material costs. In the standard R/3 setup, returns and such inventory adjustments are not designated as reversals, leading them to be booked under receipt categories, thus distorting the period's actual cost. A corrective approach via Customizing is suggested, assigning these movements to a 'consumption' category, avoiding direct adjustments and instead using a designated report for table updates, enhancing ledger accuracy without impacting core system processes.
