Reference and Simulation costing is a tool for planning costs and setting prices, with which you manually enter the items in the form of a unit cost estimate. This cost estimate can be used as a module in other cost estimates, as a reference copy when planning other objects in the R/3 system, and for simulation purposes.

The reference object in cost planning in connection with Reference and Simulation Costing is the base planning object. Each base planning object comprises master data and costing items with the relevant cost information. You manage cost planning for the base planning object using unit costing or multi-level unit costing.
