In this IMG activity, you define the source structures used when settling and costing joint products.
A source structure contains several source assignments, each of which contains the individual cost elements or cost element intervals to be settled using the same distribution rules.
In the settlement rule for the sender you can define one distribution rule, in which you specify the distribution and receivers for the costs for each source assignment.
The object in question has incurred both direct and overhead costs. The direct costs are to be divided 50% each between a fixed asset and a cost center, while the overhead is to be settled in full to an administration cost center in CO.
To do this, you would create a source structure with two source assignments:
Check whether you need to use source structures in your settlement procedures. If you are settling to cost elements, you do not need a source structure. Otherwise, create a source structure as follows:
If you are working without
results analysis in the Product Cost by Sales Order component, you can use the source structure to document the settled cost elements. This enables you to differentiate between the revenues and costs for the sales order item that have been settled and the revenues and costs that have not been settled with cumulative displays.
