Use

Depending on the contractual agreements, you can invoice your customer for the expenses incurred in each period for consumables, services, and taxes. These expenses can be compared with the revenues in the P&L statement.

You can use static resource-related billing or resource-related billing of dynamic items. This results analysis method can only be used with resource-related billing of dynamic line items.

You can use the results analysis method Derive Revenue from Resource-Related Billing and Simulation of Dynamic Items for:

The cost of sales is derived from the resource-related billing with dynamic items. The cost of sales is calculated in the amount of the actual costs incurred according to the DIP profile.

Note

See results analysis method 14 Derive Cost of Sales from Resource-Related Billing of Dynamic Items. Results analysis method 14 calculates cost of sales in the amount of the invoiced costs.

You can calculate inventory values with this method. You cannot calculate reserves.

Prerequisites

You are using resource-related billing based on dynamic items.

Choose a results analysis method in simplified Customizing for Product Cost by Sales Order under Period-End Closing ® Results Analysis ® Define Valuation Methods.

No planned values are used in this results analysis method. Therefore it is not necessary to establish planned costs for results analysis.

In results analysis on the basis of dynamic items, quantities are recorded for the line IDs for the cost of sales, the revenues, and the inventory values. You must enter a "B" in the Quantities indicator in the Expert Mode. In the standard system, this is the default setting for results analysis methods 14 and 15. To ensure that the units of measure are updated, you must also enter a unit of measure in the update for the relevant line IDs.

You can create your own line IDs for costs that are not to be invoiced. You can use the apportionment reason in Customizing in the Assignment for this purpose. An apportionment reason is specified when line items are invoiced and indicates why the line item is not invoiced.

Features

This results analysis method calculates inventory values and the cost of sales, but not reserves (or no revenue surplus).

Definitions:

R(PA) = R(a) + R(z)

C(PA) = C(a)

R(z) = Simulated revenue for costs that have not yet been billed (revenue in excess of billings)

Revenue affecting net income is the sum of the actual revenues and the revenues simulated on the basis of the actual costs that have not yet been invoiced.

The cost of sales is equal to the actual costs.

Revenue in excess of billings is calculated on the basis of the actual costs that have not yet been invoiced and the transfer price surcharge (corresponding to pricing in SD). The revenue in excess of billings is calculated by internally linking the incurred costs to pricing. This determines what the revenues would be for these costs.

Note

The costs, anticipated revenues, and associated quantities are transferred from the dynamic items or from SD pricing. The posted revenues and the associated quantities are transferred directly from the sales order item.

Constraints

Results analysis data cannot be calculated on the basis of statistical key figures because this would assume the existence of costs and revenues that have not yet been updated.

Example

The transfer price surcharge is 54%.

Period 01

In period 01 you have actual costs of USD 20,000 but no revenues. In results analysis, the system calculates the following data:

Period 02

In period 02 actual costs increase to USD 80,000. This is the sum of the items to be billed. You send your customer an invoice. The invoice only includes some of the items that incurred actual costs. The sum of the costs of the billed items is USD 60,000. The sum of the revenues of the billed items is USD 92,400. The order is partially delivered and partially billed. In results analysis, the system calculates the following data:

Period 03

In period 03 actual costs increase to USD 130,000. You deliver the remaining units to your customer and send a final invoice for USD 100,000. The sum of the billed amounts is USD 192,400. The order is now fully delivered and fully invoiced. In results analysis, the system calculates the following data:
