Displaying Costs

Use

You can display the costs resulting from an order from the following perspectives:

Plant Maintenance

In the system, this display is called the cost overview. The cost overview lists the individual value categories.

A value category is a grouping of cost elements.

The cost elements 692000 and 693000 are grouped under the value category "Internal activities".

Controlling

In the system, this display is called the cost report. The cost report lists the individual cost elements. It displays whether or not the order still contains a balance.

Prerequisites
