SAP Note 24588 - Empty value of goods received column

Symptom:

• The value of goods received column in the standard analyses of the vendor or material group remains empty.

• After a breakdown according to material, the value of goods received is displayed but the goods receipt total also remains empty.

Cause and prerequisites

The value of goods received is a calculated key figure which is calculated from the quantity of goods received valuated with the order price. The order price in turn is the quotient from value of ordered goods and purchase order quantity. In this case, you have to consider that the order price can only be calculated on an aggregated level (for example, on vendor or material group level), if values with the same currency and quantities are cumulated with the same unit of measure. The same applies to the value of goods received.
Thus, if the standard analyses display an empty column for the value of goods received, the currencies or units of measure are not identical on the aggregated level.
After a breakdown according to material, the above problem (different currencies or units of measure) only occurs in the totals line, although the value of goods received is calculated for each material.

Solution
For symptom 1, there is no solution because there is no error. This also applies to release 3.0A. Starting with release 3.0B, the key figure: value of goods received can then also be output if the goods received quantities of materials have different quantity units. (see also the corresponding release info for 3.0B).
For symptom 2, make the following program correction in program RMCE02F0.
Symptom 2 was corrected up to 2.2G.
