Cost Distribution (Position)Locate this document in the navigation structure

Definition

Distribution of costs arising to several cost centers.

Use

Costs incurred by a position are usually written to the cost center directly assigned to the position (master cost center) or the cost center inherited by the organizational unit. For more information, see Account Assignment (Position).

Create a cost distribution if you wish to distribute costs to more than one cost center. Enter which portion of the costs you would like to distribute to which cost center. If the position is already assigned a master cost center, the left-over share will be written to this cost center.

Note

If the position was assigned a master cost center before it was created, you must reconcile cost distribution with this.

You will find the Cost Distribution tab page in the Organization and Staffing (Workflow) view.

Structure

In the table which is displayed, you can enter the percentage of costs that is to be distributed to each cost center. You can also assign orders and WBS elements.

Integration
