Use

You maintain rules with which the system finds the required cost component splits in this activity. The rules are only valid for the data basis in which they are defined.

All characteristics selected as object types and link types of the data basis are available as selection characteristics for the cost component splits. In addition, there are two "artificial" characteristics for the technical names of an object type or a cost component split type from structure maintenance.

The result of a rule analysis is either one value or no value for a cost component split. If no valid cost component split is determined, this value is only processed further unsplit. Multiple valid cost component spilts can be determined one after another in multiple rules.

You can create rules for a specific cost component split type and for all cost component split types of a data basis. You define one rule for all cost component split types by leaving the field for the cost component split type empty in the dialog box.

For reasons of clarity, we recommend that you only use one rule for one cost component split type. You can see for which type a rule was created on the detail screen by double-clicking the rule on the Condition tab.

All characteristics at all object types of the selected data basis are available as source fields of a derivation rule. Up to six source characteristics can be selected. There is a restriction here that all fields together must be less than approx. 100 characters long since otherwise the maximum length of the key of database table will be exceeded.

Wildcards (such as asterisk *) are not possible in rule values. If there is no fixed value, choose an appropriate interval for the characteristic values of the relevant field. For performance and maintenance reasons, you should only maintain a few rule values. If possible, try to choose fixed values of characteristics at higher aggregation levels (such as plant).

Requirements

You have defined at least one cost component split type in the Structure Maintenance of the data basis. You have also already maintained cost component splits for the cost component split types in the IMG activity Create Cost Component Split and Cost Component Split Elements.
