The document provides instructions for using transaction code CKM3 in SAP to perform a material price analysis. This transaction allows users to analyze material movements and costs by entering a material, plant, and period. It then displays the valuated transactions and price/exchange rate differences for that material. Users can view details of specific documents, including purchase orders and cost center consumption documents, and drill down to associated source documents. The material ledger must be activated to use this transaction for analyzing actual costs versus standard costs.
