Actual Cost Determination for Time Sheet Hours 
Actual Cost Determination for Time Sheet Hours
Use
The working times entered in the time sheet are not valuated until they have been transferred to Controlling (CO). You can transfer the data either directly or indirectly. The actual costs incurred are determined in Controlling.
In the time sheet, the working times entered are valuated neither for individual persons nor according to exact times. It cannot determine, for example, whether the working times entered are overtime hours or public holiday work, or whether an activity should be valuated using a higher rate because the employee has exceeded the requirements of his or her normal activity.
Features
For the determination of actual costs in Controlling, you can choose between the following variants:
The actual costs are determined using the plan activity price of the activity type. The price of the activity type can be defined per period and cost center, depending on your settings in Controlling. This is the standard procedure.
The standard procedure does not take account of activity prices for either individual employees or specific days. You can include activity prices in the valuation by
The hours worked are valuated on the basis of an hourly activity price. The activity price is assigned to an activity type. This results in inconsistencies between the evaluation based on the activity price entered and the evaluation based on the plan activity price defined in Controlling. The system identifies these inconsistencies in Controlling.
You can determine the activity price per hour using the SAP enhancement CATS0002 (Supplement Recorded Data), and valuate the actual hours based on this activity price. This results in inconsistencies between the valuation based on the activity price entered and the valuation based on the plan activity price in Controlling. The system identifies these inconsistencies in Controlling.
Depending on the SAP enhancement, the hourly activity prices can be derived from Payroll (if you implement SAP Human Resources), for example, or determined using customer-specific formulas.
Taking Account of Overtime, Bonuses, and so on
The above information shows that activities performed by an employee can only be differentiated in Controlling if you have assigned them different activity prices.
If you have different categories of working hours for one day, you must enter a corresponding number of time sheet records. They are assigned different activity prices or activity types depending on the variant used to determine the actual costs.
In SAP Human Resources, overtime, bonuses, and so on are determined in Time Evaluation or Payroll. In these components, the valuation is based on the relevant collective agreement or company provisions.
