Product Cost Controlling (CO-PC)

Planning tool for simplfied cost planning. Costing models are used to design planning procedures that are frequently performed in similar ways. The factors that drive costs (the characteristics) are converted into a unit cost estimate by deriving the costing items from the characteristics. The characteristics are defined by the planner in the costing model. Characteristics values can be predefined. For each characteristic, rules are defined that determine how data is assigned in the SAP System.

Example

Characteristics: Number of employees, mode of travel, equipment needed

Values: 4, car (predefined), laptop PC (predfined)
