Product Cost by
Sales Order
Here you define the control parameters that
affect
Product Cost by Sales Order.
In Product Cost by Sales Order, costs are
normally collected on sales order items. (See also Sales and
Distribution)
- If you are not using the Sales and
Distribution component (SD), you can collect the costs in make-to-order
production on an internal order. (See Internal Orders)
- If you are using the Project System (PS), you
can collect the costs on a project. (See Project Management)
This is recommended
for highly complex and long-term make-to-order environments.
For each sales order item, you can plan the
cost of goods manufactured or the cost of goods sold. The costing results can
be used as a basis for pricing in the SD component.
To be able to plan costs for sales orders, you
must do the following:
- Define a costing variant and a valuation
variant.
- Define a costing sheet for the calculation of
overhead rates.
- Make sure that the MRP group in the MRP 1 view
of the material master record specifies a requirements class that has account
assignment category "E" (make-to-order) and that allows costing.
- In the requirements class, use the "Costing"
indicator to specify that costing is allowed or updated and whether the
planned costs are updated.
In the requirements class, you also specify
whether your sales order stock should be valuated or
nonvaluated with the "Valuation" indicator.
Results analysis at the end of the period is
only required if you are using a nonvaluated sales order stock.
To carry out results analysis, you must do the
following:
- Define a results analysis key
The results analysis
key controls whether an object is selected for results analysis or WIP
calculation. The results analysis key is defined as a separate default value
for each requirements class.
- Define a results analysis version
The results analysis
version determines which of the results analysis versions are relevant to
settlement. This is particularly important in multiple valuation.
- Choose a valuation method
- The valuation method controls which formula is
used to calculate the results analysis data.
To be able to settle the results analysis data
to Profitability Analysis, you must define a PA transfer structure that
assigns the results analysis data to value fields.
To be able to settle the
and
the
revenue in excess of billings and the reserves to Financial
Accounting, you must:
- Set the indicator "Financial Accounting" in
the results analysis version
The posting rules
assign the results analysis cost elements under which the
results analysis data is updated on the order to G/L accounts
(such as the finished products inventory or the reserves for unrealized costs
(balance sheet) and the inventory change account or the expense account for
reserves (P+L)).
To be able to view data in the information
system, you must make certain settings in Customizing for the Information
System. See also:
Information System for Product Cost Controlling).
