groups to one cost component. On display of the costing results, you can
choose between the two cost component groups.
Examples

the partner cost component split in the information system. The costs are
grouped into cost component groups. When the split is displayed, you can
switch between the two cost component groups.
You can use the
entries for two cost component groups in the attributes for the cost component
to decide, for each cost component, whether the costs should be displayed, and
through which group.

results in the information system. In the initial screen, you can choose the
cost component group for which the report is to be
called.
