Use

In Personnel Cost Planning, you can calculate personnel costs based on the organizational structure by creating scenario groups which are grouped and administered in plan scenarios. If you have assigned cost centers to your organizational units, positions and employees and also assigned wage elements to the cost items, you can then use this data as plan values in CO.

If you release this data in HR, the system checks the consistency of the cost centers and cost items and due to the planning period, the system must also determines the corresponding fiscal year in FI/CO. In CO, you can display all the HR plan scenarios that have been released. As a rule, only those plan scenarios that are being used as plan values are displayed.

Prerequisites

  1. At least one system must be of a release smaller than 4.6A.
  2. The cost centers and cost items must be replicated in the HR system as these controlling objects are read locally in the HR system.
  3. In the HR system, you must maintain the method GetPeriod in the distribution model for the business object ControllingArea. You can only do this, if the CO system is of release 4.0 or higher. If this is not the case, you must copy the fiscal year variant into the HR system.
  4. In the CO system, you must maintain the message type HRCPRQ in the distribution model. The message type controls the data transfer between the systems involved. The transfer happens synchronously via RFC.
  5. In HR, you must have create a plan scenario and have released it.

 

Process

  1. Release scenario: Define fiscal year
    Business object: ControllingArea
    Method: GetPeriod
  2. Transfer plan scenario data from HR into CO in the CO system
    Message type: HRCPRQ
