CAC Invoice Price Variance – Oracle EBS SQL Report

Oracle E-Business Suite SQL report from the Enginatics Library powered by Blitz Report™. Oracle EBS module: Cost Accounting · all Cost Accounting reports

Overview

Report to display the Invoice Price Variances (IPV), Exchange Rate Variances (ERV) and A/P Accrual Write-Off Variances for an entered date range. IPV is the difference between the PO unit price and the invoice unit cost times the quantity invoiced. ERV is the difference between the purchase order exchange rate and the exchange rate used by the A/P invoice. For a given invoice line, both the IPV and ERV amounts will be shown on the same row, in separate columns. These entries have the Type “IPV-ERV”. The A/P Accrual Write-Off Variances appear as separate rows with the Type “INV WO” for invoice write-off amounts. The A/P Accrual Write-Off Variances typically use the IPV account so for completeness, are also displayed on this report.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between IPV and PPV? A: PPV (Purchase Price Variance) is the difference between Standard Cost and PO Price. IPV is the difference between PO Price and Invoice Price.

Q: Does this report show PPV? A: No, this report focuses strictly on the AP side (IPV/ERV). Use the “Purchase Price Variance” report for PPV.

Q: Why is IPV important for Standard Costing? A: IPV is expensed immediately (usually). It represents a “leak” in the standard cost model that needs to be monitored.
