When you make changes to costing scenarios, for example, you increase the number of jobs and positions in an organizational unit, increase the headcount, award salary increases, these changes take effect immediately and the system calculates the values online. To improve system performance when you are changing scenarios containing a lot of data, you can switch the calculation function off. You can still make changes in real time but the system does not calculate or display the new values.

You can activate the calculation functions whenever you want. You can then choose whether you want the system to calculate the new values online or in the background.

When you are in the change mode, choose Settings ® Calculation off to deactivate the calculation functions.
