Creating the Cost Estimate for a Production Lot 

Use

In order to determine the planned costs for the production lot of a material, you carry out a production lot cost estimate. First of all, you have to create the cost estimate for the production lot.

Integration

The procedure for creating the cost estimate for the production lot is similar to the procedure for creating a material cost estimate. The only difference being that it is created with reference to the production lot (WBS element).

Prerequisites

You have checked the costing variant PPC5 in Customizing for Product Cost Controlling, in the IMG activity "Costing Variants for Production Lot Costing" or you have created your own costing variant.

Features

If you created a routing and a work breakdown structure BOM with reference to the production lot (WBS element) for the production lot, these will be used to carry out the costing. If you have only created a routing and a material BOM, the system will them use these for the costing of the production lot.
