Definition

Key that indicates the origin of the results analysis data.

Use

In the step "Define assignment", you define the results analysis category of the data by entering the line ID in an appropriate column. The work in process for a particular group of costs, for example, can be assigned by means of an entry in the corresponding column of one of the following categories:

RA category    Meaning

WIPR    Work in process with requirement to capitalize costs

WIPO    Work in process with option to capitalize costs

WIPP    Work in process with prohibition to capitalize costs

You define a posting rule for the work in process that must be capitalized and, if applicable, for the work in process that can be capitalized.

This assignment also applies to reserves for unrealized costs and reserves for the cost of complaints and commissions:

RA category    Meaning

RUCR    Res. for unrealized costs, requirement to capitalize

RUCO    Res. for unrealized costs, option to capitalize

RUCP    Res. for unrealized costs, prohibition to capitalize

RCCR    Res. for cost of complaints, req. to capitalize

RCCO    Res. for cost of complaints, option to capitalize

RCCP    Res. for cost of complaints, prohib. to capitalize

You normally define a number of posting rules that assign both the reserves for costs which must be capitalized and the reserves for costs which cannot be capitalized to G/L accounts because all reserves must be shown as a liability.

Procedure

Examples

Dependencies

If you are using Profit Center Accounting, create a posting rule for costs that can not be capitalized and settle it to Financial Accounting. This is necessary, because Profit Center Accounting recieves its data from Financial Accounting. You can direct the work in process that can not be capitalized to a dummy account.
