Prerequisites

If you want to carry out resource planning without adopting the standard planner profile SAPR&R, you must define your own planner profile and planning layout .

Procedure

To plan primary costs at resource level, proceed as follows:

  1. Select a planner profile for resource planning such as the standard planner profile SAPR&R .

To do so, in your application choose   Planning   Set planner profile   .

  1. Choose   Planning   Cost element/activity input   Change.  

  2. Select a planning layout for resource planning.

To change existing plans or create new ones, choose Change . In the overview screen you can enter the fixed and variable plan consumption for a resource. You use a distribution key to distribute the plan values to the fiscal year periods. You can either select a standard distribution key or define your own. On the period screen, you can also distribute your period values manually to the individual periods.

If you have stored a price for the resource (see: Pricing ) the system revaluates the consumption using this resource price (see also Revaluating Resource Planning )
