  Price Control Issues: The price control settings (standard price vs. moving average price) may not be set correctly for the material.
  Costing Sheet Issues: The costing sheet may not be properly defined or may be missing necessary components.
  Currency Issues: There may be currency conversion issues if the material is being costed in a different currency than expected.
