Symptom
- Errors in the cost of raw materials with valuation category "V" were already included in the cost calculation of finished and semi-finished materials with valuation category "S".
- Need to recalculate and update the cost of affected finished and semi-finished materials immediately.
- Need to perform re-costing within the same accounting period.
- Need recommended practices for correcting cost rollups after raw material cost adjustments.
- Inquiry about potential limitations for this scenario.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Calculate and release product cost estimates for finished/semi-finished materials that include raw materials with valuation category "V".
- After release, identify and correct errors in the raw material costs.
- Observe that finished/semi-finished valuations remain based on the initial estimate until the next periodic product costing run.
Cause
Resolution
- Update the inventory price directly using the Manage Material Prices app (or an equivalent application) to reflect the corrected cost for the affected materials.
- Remove previously released cost estimates using the Reorganization of Cost Estimates app, then run the costing process again and release the new cost estimates so that corrected raw material costs roll up consistently to the finished/semi-finished materials. This approach is recommended for consistent recalculation.
