Procedure documentationRevaluating Costing Items

 

The prices in the cost estimate are those that were valid either when the cost estimate was created or when the Revaluate function was last used.

If the master data changes, this data is not automatically updated in unit costing. However, you can revaluate the costing items so that they reflect the current prices.

You can revaluate the following:

  • All items

  • Selected items only

  • Items of a certain item category only, such as all material items (this is not possible in Easy Cost Planning)

Note Note

Costing items are revaluated automatically if you execute the functions Material explosion, Create cost estimate with reference or Copy cost estimate... (this is not possible in Easy Cost Planning).

End of the note.

Note Note

The Revaluate function is not available for the detailed planning of a cost element.

End of the note.

Prerequisites

You are in the list screen of the unit cost estimate.

Procedure

  1. Decide which items in the unit cost estimate you want to revaluate.

    • To revaluate all items, choose Start of the navigation path Functions Next navigation step Revaluate Next navigation step Revaluate All Items End of the navigation path You do not need to select any items.

    • To revaluate only certain items, select the items and choose Start of the navigation path Functions Next navigation step Revaluate Next navigation step Selected Items End of the navigation path.

    • To revaluate only items of a certain category (such as materials and internal activities), choose Start of the navigation path Functions Next navigation step Revaluate Next navigation step By Item Category... End of the navigation path.

      Note Note

      Revaluation by item category is not available in Easy Cost Planning.

      End of the note.

  2. Save the cost estimate and, if applicable, the reference object (such as the sales order).

Result

The relevant items are revaluated with the current prices based on the valuation variant.

  • If you revaluated all items, the raw material cost estimate and the overhead are also recalculated.

  • If you revaluated selected items only, the overhead is only recalculated when the cost estimate is saved or if you choose Start of the navigation path Functions Next navigation step Calculate Overhead End of the navigation path.

  • If you changed costing items manually, the system sets the Manual Price indicator. Such items are not revaluated.
