Prerequisites

You have defined a cost object profile in Customizing for Product Cost by Period and specified it in the cost object category.

Use

List entry is recommended for mass entry of cost object nodes.

Procedure

  1. Choose Accounting ® Controlling ® Product Cost Controlling ® Cost Object Controlling ® Product Cost by Period ® Master Data ® Cost Object Hierarchy ® Fast Entry of Cost Object Hierarchy.

    2. The screen CO-PC: Create Cost Objects/Product Group (List Processing)1 appears.

  2. Enter a cost object category that is suitable for creating a cost object hierarchy. Choose Program ® Execute.

    3. The screen Create Cost Object: List Screen appears.

  3. Enter the required data, such as:
  1. Check the control parameters used in accordance with the settings in the cost object profile and cost object category. You can change these default values if necessary.
  1. You can define the top of the hierarchy in the list entry. You do this by positioning the cursor on a line and choosing Edit ® Define Top Node
  1. Save the cost object nodes.

Result

If there are entries that have errors, when you save the cost object hierarchy you receive a list of the cost object nodes.

A traffic light symbol informs you of the state of the cost object nodes. Red lights mean that there are cost object nodes with errors. The entries with errors cannot be saved. To determine the causes of the errors, look at the messages. You do this by choosing the menu options Goto ® Messages.
