Assignment of Cost/Revenue Rates
Depending on whether you want to perform costing based on tasks or based on roles, you assign a cost/revenue rate to the tasks or the roles or resources for which you want to perform costing.
Integration
For more information about how cost and revenue rates affect costing, see Costing Logic.
Prerequisites
Your system administrator activated accounting integration for the project type of the current project. The tab for accounting integration is then visible in Project Management.
Role-Based Scenario:
You are on the Resources
tab of a project and have selected a role. You can enter the cost/revenue rate on the Costing
tab.
Task-Based Scenario:
You are on the Structure
tab of a project and have selected a task. You can enter the cost/revenue rate on the Additional Data
tab.
Features
When you create a new task or role, the system reads as the default value, the cost or revenue rate valid at the time the task or role begins, for the task type or role type from Customizing. You can select a different rate and enter a different revenue or different costs. This enables you to agree on individual rates with your customers.
If you entered a responsible organizational unit for your project and a special cost or revenue rate exists for this project in Customizing for Project Management
, costing uses this rate. If you have not defined a special rate, the general rate is used.
