Use

This workbook displays an overview of the released cost estimates across multiple periods for multiple materials in a plant. To enable price comparisons on a uniform basis, the values of the cost estimates are converted from the costing lot size to a base unit of measure. Such comparisons are of course only meaningful if all materials being compared have the same (or a comparable) base unit of measure.

A graphic shows how the standard prices of the individual materials has changed over time.

When you do a refresh, you should limit the number of materials displayed. You can use all navigation attributes of the characteristic material to do this. For more information, see the documentation on the query.
