SAP Note 608162 - WIP in ML: Availability in Enterprise Ext.Set 2.00

Component : revaluation of work in process -

Summary :
The SAP Material Ledger now features a WIP revaluation function, initially developed for Brazil but integrated into the SAP Standard System from Release R/3 Enterprise Extension Set 2.00 onward, albeit with restrictions due to its specific design for Brazilian legal compliance and incomplete functionality for certain processes. Activation of this function requires a password, provided in the customizing interface with reference to this note. Detailed feature restrictions include revaluation for actual costs rather than tax or balance sheet approaches, and the component orientation of WIP revaluation in Profit Center Accounting, which creates discrepancies in variance posting between components and products. Additional complexities arise with joint product manufacturing due to inconsistent completion percentages. Transaction codes like OMXW and COMLWIPDOC are used for activating and documenting WIP revaluation processes.
