Prerequisites
Adjusting the quantity of a cost object is one way you can adjust the costing figures.
Quantities are derived from the weights established in the Work Schedule infotype, in PD. Work schedules state the average number of hours worked by a position, organizational unit, work center or work schedule group. Normally, work schedules apply on a 100% basis, meaning that the full schedule is worked. This is shown as 1.00 in Personnel Cost Planning (if you use the drill-down feature).
By changing the weighting figure to 2.00, for example, you can indicate that the costs related with a position should be doubled. By changing the weighting to 0.5 you indicate that costs for a position should be cut in half.
Editing by quantity is helpful if, for example, a position becomes part-time, or you foresee a period of time when a lot of overtime must be worked.
If you want to add costs to a scenario to represent new persons, it is also possible to create fictitious objects. For further information, see
Procedure
