The range of coverage of a material is the number in months derived from the quotient of the stock quantities and the consumption quantities. At this point, you can periodically assign weighting factors to the stock quantities. The corresponding lowest value program interprets the setting as follows:

  • The first entry refers to the posting period in which the run date set in the program lies.
  • All other entries refer to posting periods that lie in the past.
  • The highest entry determines the oldest posting period analyzed.

The system analyzes the history tables for the material master, which enables you to do the following:

  • Maintain the weighting of the stock quantities in the same way as the consumption quantities
  • Display stocks without gaps
  • Keep the Customizing settings between the test and update modes of the range of coverage program at period change or fiscal year change.

Requirements

Standard settings

In the table Weighting of Stock Quantities (Range of Coverage), the entries Period 1 and Weighting factor 1 are supplied: You use this setting to analyze the stock level on the key date for lowest value determination.

Recommendation

Activities

Enter the required periods and assign weighting factors to them.

Further notes

Immediately after upgrading to Release 4.5 or 4.6 the stock history cannot be supplied with data without gaps. As an alternative, the range of coverage program analyzes the stock figures in the material master. Gaps that arise are interpreted such that there was no stock change in the relevant time period. The stock history consists of one entry for each posting period. The system does not take into account stock fluctuations in individual previous periods.
