Quantity Structure of Product Costing 
Use
The basis of the costing of a product is its quantity structure. In the product costing the quantity structure is based on the specifications of the BOM and the routing.
Features
In the AFS system, the quantity structure of a product can be defined as grid/category-dependent. Product costing considers these grid/category-dependent specifications. When costing a certain stock keeping unit, the system explodes the bill of material for the corresponding SKU and determines the relevant routing.
The following illustration shows an overview of the costing-relevant definitions of the AFS quantity structure:


The material and production costs of a material can be applied with overhead costs within the framework of product costing. For this you can define a costing sheet with overhead rates in the used costing variant/valuation variant (Customizing).
However, the overhead rates cannot be defined based on grid values/categories. That means that all valuation types of a material are debited with the same overhead rates.
