Costing 

Use

You have scheduled internal and external services for the activities in the network.

Taking the dates into account, the system calculates the planned costs using the valuation records or the prices for internal and external services and the required operating resources.

The time-based distribution of the planned costs is the result of the time-based distribution of the planned services and the operating resources for the individual activities.

The costs of the activities are assigned to the WBS elements by assigning the activities.

You can find further information in the SAP Library under Logistics ® Project System ® Structures ® Project Planning Board and Logistics ® Project System ® Costs.
