Maintain Resons for Price Change

Hello,

for the material ledger it is possible to maintain price change reasons, when using MR21 with direct impact on valuation in BS. Following the documentation in SPRO, it is stated that "You can assign one posting reason and one Account Grouping Code to the transactions MR21 Price Changes and MR22 Credit/Debit Material. The account grouping code allows you to make the posting, depending on the reason, to a revaluation account that differs from the one in the standard settings."

My question: is it required to assign a revaluation account? My purpose would be to assign a reason, but don't change the account. In the most cases price change is used in the regarded company, when the error "moving average price gets negative" comes up and a correction is required via MR21 as per SAP recommendation. So this reason should be available as default.

Second question: if different reasons are defined, is it then possible to assign a reason as "free text" as additional option?

Thank you and regards

Olga

Revaluation account triggers while posting MR21 entry as G/L account assigned for the particular account key* in OBYC.

Now you want to enter reason code in MR21- do you have any option in the screen or want to utilize any unused field of MR21 action for reporting pupose!
