In this IMG activity, you simulate document summarization in cost accounting. This does not change any data or settings. For more information on document summarization, see the activity on "Document Summarization in External Accounting".

In the simulation you specify which fields you do not require for the CO line items. The program then uses the documents that are already in the system to check how successful a summarization was in the past. However, this estimation may be incorrect for the future, particularly if you change business processes or structures. Additionally, the document summarization does not affect the current dataset, but the documents posted in the future.

It is recommended that you start the program in the background.

The program creates a list containing the following:

  • List of all controlling areas for which a currency and valuation profile has been entered. The system records for each controlling area whether transfer prices are actually active, and which currency and valuation profile has been assigned.
    This is because the system does not carry out document summarization for controlling areas for which you use transfer prices. The program simulates document summarization for all controlling areas.
  • Fields that you have chosen on the selection screen for simulation of summarization.
  • Number of line items (COEP entries) without summarization, counting only the line items that originate in external accounting (business transaction COIN). If this number is smaller than the total number of entries in the COEP table, then you can ignore the line item summarization.
  • Number of line items with selected summarization. This displays how many line items would be in the system if summarization had been active from the start using the selected fields on the selection screen.
  • Minimum number of line items, displaying the effect of maximum summarization: How many line items would be in the system if summarization had been active from the start using all the fields on the selection screen.
  • List of reference transactions and object types. When entering settings for document summarization, you only need to include the reference transactions and object types from the list if there is a significant variance between those that are unsummarized and summarized.

The effect of the summarization that you chose is always between the unsummarized status and maximum summarization. If all three levels are close together, you do not need document summarization.
