This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

Activity Allocation
  1. Two repair hours are allocated from a cost center / activity type to an order for USD 5.00.

Order Settlement Using The PER Distribution Rule
  1. The system settles the order to a cost center during periodic settlement. The order is credited with USD 5.00.

  2. The cost center / activity type is initially debited with USD 5.00 (value type 09 posting).

  3. In a further posting, the cost center / activity type is credited with USD 5.00 (value type 09 posting).

  4. The cost center is debited with USD 5.00.

    After the order is settled, the cost center no longer shows that the order existed.

Note Note

The information on the transferred quantity and the sender is only transferred to the receiver in a periodic settlement (PER distribution rule). This enables the system to include activities in price determination, that were provided to orders, and then settled to cost centers. The flow of activity between the cost centers is shown in the document rows with value type 09.

End of the note.

Caution Caution

Settlement of an order to a cost center or business process must be made once before price determination, as the price determination would otherwise not recognize the activity flow from CCtr 1/REP to CCtr 2.

End of the caution.

Splitting

Actual costs are split within Cost Center Accounting.

Price Determination

In Cost Center Accounting, when the system determines actual prices, it determines the actual prices for cost centers / activity types. At the same time, it revaluates all of the allocations made from a cost center / activity type to a cost center in Cost Center Accounting with the difference to the plan price. The system revaluates all of the allocations that were posted using value type 09.

The price for two repair hours is, for example, not 5.00 USD, but 6.00 USD.

  1. The cost center / activity type is credited with another 1.00 USD during price determination.

  2. The cost center is debited with 1.00 USD.

    To post between cost centers, you need the KSII business transaction. Initially, the order is not included during price determination.

Order Revaluation
  1. During order relaluation, the cost center / activity type is credited with the difference to the plan price (1.00 USD).

  2. The order is debited with the difference to the plan price (USD 1.00).

    The system does this by making a value type 04 posting (actual). It does this, by searching for all postings to the order that have value type 04 in the COSS table, and whose partner object PAROB is a cost center / activity type, or a business process. The system only revaluates these partner objects.

Caution Caution

If there is a chain of orders that were settled one after the other, only the first order is revaluated.

End of the caution.

This means that:

  • The order is no longer completely credited.

  • The cost center / activity type was credited by USD 1.00 too many.

Therefore, you need to resettle the order, also after the revaluation.

Second Settlement

After revaluation, the order balance is not zero, but 1.00 USD. Therefore, you need to settle the order again.

  1. The order is settled to the cost center.

    The order is credited with USD 1.

  2. The cost center is debited with +1 USD.

  3. However, as the cost centers were already revaluated during price determination, the system makes an offsetting entry which credits the cost center by 1.00 USD, and debits the cost center / activity type by 1.00 USD.

    The postings on the cost center / activity type and the cost center each balance out to zero.

The order revaluation has had no effect on the cost centers / activity types, but the effect can be seen on the order itself.

Postings (value type 09) that transfer the information on the sender to the receiver take place at the same time as the first settlement, but using transaction RKLN.
