*If you use the Quantity-Based Method, you should change the setting of the Base quantity field in the Expert Mode of the valuation method. In the standard system, the system uses the billed quantity.

**If you use the POC Method on Basis of Revenue Planned by Period, you must use a billing plan to plan the period costs. Otherwise the system cannot calculate meaningful values.
