Definition

You can gather activity types with similar characteristics into activity type groups.

Use

You can use activity type groups to process multiple activity types in one business transaction within Cost Center Accounting . This is true for planning or assessment. During planning, for example, you can display and plan multiple activity types in one transaction. You can also use activity type groups during assessment (for example, assessment to specified activity type groups).

As with cost elements and cost centers, the SAP System enables you to create and administrate activity type groups in parallel. For example, you can create separate activity type groups for planning and allocation purposes. You can also define additional activity type groups, for purposes such as price analysis.
