Overhead on Orders and Projects is Possible Based on Commitment Data

Description

It is now possible to calculate overhead based on commitments for orders, projects and networks. Overhead is applied to each of the following during a run: purchase requisition commitment, purchase order commitment and manual reservation.

You can repeat this transaction as often as you wish, without having to cancel values already calculated first. This is because the transaction only posts the differences between the current value and the existing overhead. The objects are debited with the surcharge without any credit being made to the credit cost centers or credit orders in the commitment.

When you select the dialog display in the online calculation, the system displays only the overhead in the purchase order commitment. However, overhead is applied to all the commitment categories named above.

Change system parameters in customizing

Overhead category "3" for "Overhead commitment" has been added so that you can control the overhead percentages.

Changes to the interface
