valuation
variant
Here you create a valuation variant that contains the parameters for valuating a
cost estimate.
You also define
- for work orders and CO production
orders:
which costing sheet
is proposed in the order master data
which costing sheet
is proposed in the project profile
You define valuation strategies for the
following objects:
Here you define the
order in which the system looks for prices in the accounting view and the
costing details screen of the material master record to valuate
materials.
Here you define the
order in which the system looks for prices in activity type planning in cost
center accounting to valuate internal activities.
You also define
which plan version is used in cost center accounting.
- External processing in the
operation
Here you define the
order in which the system looks for prices in the purchasing info record or in an operation in the work order or in
the routing to valuate external activities.
Here you define the
order in which the system looks for prices in the purchasing info record. In
purchasing, arrangements are used to create a mixed price for materials that
are supplied by external vendors with materials provided by the customer. You
can specify whether the quota of the suppliers that are entered in the source list for the material to be processed should be
determined with the planned quota arrangement or the actual quota
arrangement.
The costing sheet
contains the parameters that control the calculation of overhead. To check an
existing costing sheet or to create a new costing sheet, process Define overhead.
To group overhead
according to material groups, process Define overhead groups and assign the overhead groups to the
overhead key in the costing sheet.
Strategy sequences
You define the individual valuation methods of
the valuation variant as strategy sequences. For the valuation of material
components, for example, you define a strategy sequence that reads the fields
of the material master record in the following order:
1. Planned price 1
2. Standard price
3. Moving average price
The first price that is not zero is used to
valuate the material component.
To be able to use the valuation variant in
costing, you have to assign the valuation variant to a costing
variant.
Requirements
If you do not want to use the costing sheets
and the overhead groups in the standard system, you must process Define overhead and Define overhead groups.
Standard
settings
- The standard system contains a number of
predefined price strategies.
- There are curently 12 price strategies for
material valuation. You can select up to five strategies for each valuation
variant.
- There are five price strategies for internal
activities. You can select up to three activity prices for each valuation
variant.
- There are nine price strategies for external
activities. You can select up to three strategies for each valuation
variant.
- There are nine price strategies for
subcontracting. You can select up to three strategies for each valuation
variant.
- The standard system contains predefined
valuation variants. You can change these valuation variants to meet your
requirements by checking your Define overhead surcharges and changing them as
necessary.
Actions
1. Enter an alphanumerical key and a name for the new valuation
variant.
2. Define a valuation strategy for material components by
entering up to five values as the search sequence.
You can set an
indicator for every material valuation strategy to control whether any manual
costs are also included in the valuation of the material
component.
3. Create a valuation strategy for internal activities by
entering up to three values as the search sequence and assigning a suitable
plan version from cost center accounting to this valuation
variant.
4. Create a valuation strategy for external activities by
entering up to three values as the search sequence.
5. Create a valuation strategy for subcontracting by entering
up to three values as the search sequence.
7. Assign a suitable costing sheet to the valuation
variant.
8. Assign the valuation variant to a costing
variant.
