Decoding Price Differences: SAP's Smart Handling of Goods Receipts - The Milk Story! 🥛💡 #SAP #ProcurementInsights #PriceManagement #SupplyChain

Continuing our exploration of SAP's Material Price Determination, let's look at how the system intelligently manages the real-world complexities of procurement, where the actual cost of goods can differ from our initial plans. Our example today involves a key ingredient: Milk!

Imagine our chocolate factory received two deliveries of milk, initially planned at a standard price of EUR 1/liter:

➡️ Delivery 1: 40 liters arrived, but the actual price was EUR 1.10/liter, totaling EUR 44. SAP immediately flags a price difference of EUR 4 (EUR 44 actual cost vs. EUR 40 standard cost).

➡️ Delivery 2: Another 10 liters were delivered, this time at EUR 1.30/liter, costing EUR 13. Compared to our standard valuation of EUR 10, SAP registers a price difference of EUR 3.

This granular tracking within SAP, typically occurring when a Goods Receipt is posted against a Purchase Order (likely using apps like 'Post Goods Receipt for Purchase Order' in SAP Fiori), is incredibly valuable because it allows businesses to:

Gain Real-time Cost Visibility: Immediately see when actual costs deviate from planned costs.
Analyze Vendor Performance: Understand pricing trends and identify potential negotiation opportunities.
Ensure Accurate Inventory Valuation: Reflect the true cost of goods in your stock.
