Example

You set general selection criteria (fiscal year, version, periods and transaction currency) in your planning layout PRIMARY.

From an organizational perspective, it was decided that the cost center managers decentrally plan the material expenses first, followed by the personnel expenses.

• In the Planning profile overview create the planning profile "PLAN01".

• Choose the planning profile "PLAN01" and CO General Settings.

• Choose the planning area "Cost centers: Cost elements/acty inputs" and Layouts CO general.

• Enter the planning layout "PRIMARY" with both item number 010 and item number 020.

• Choose the item "010" and Default parameters and enter the cost element group for material expenses.

• Choose the item "020" and Default parameters and enter the cost element group for personnel expenses.

Also assign the cost center managers in the user parameters to planner profile PLAN01 via the parameter ID "PPP". To do so, choose System -> User profile -> User parameters .

When the cost center manager calls up planning by choosing "Planning -> CElems/Actvty input -> Change", the system suggests profile PLAN01 and branches to planning layout PRIMARY with the plan costs for material expenses. The cost center manager can now enter the plan data and, after it is saved, can go to other planning by choosing Next layout.
