previousperiod, and previous year. SAP does not provide transactions/reportsthat will provide
moving average value for a given date.How can I report moving average price for material number 10000000at
plant 0001 on July 4, 1998. A: Try any of these solutions:1. Change the updating level of the structure (S031) to "daily".
In LISthe total value and the total stock are available. Divide value by thestock. It is possible to
calculate this dynamically when the analysis isrun and to display the result.2. Create your own structure in
LIS and populate it by copying theMoving Average Price from the material master every time there is
atransaction. You will have data on those days when there was atransaction.Q: We have defined all the variables
for the materials. However,when I attempt to use Material Matchcode object MAT1, I get theresponse
"No possible entries found". Why? A: Matchcode i.d. "B", "Material by bill of material" has a
selectioncondition for field STLNR NE ' '. STLNR is the BOM numberassociated with a material in table MAST.
Hence the message - "nopossible entries..." pops up if there are no bills of materialsassociated with
your material numbers. You get the matchcodes aslong as the material referred by you has BOM number
associatedwith it.
