In this step you define parameters that influence results analysis with sales orders, projects, and long-term orders.

Results analysis is of importance in the following situations:

The data calculated in results analysis is updated on the order with reference to the results analysis version. This enables you to perform results analysis on the basis of more than one results analysis version. Using different results analysis versions allows you to

  • Define different methods of results analysis

    You can create results analysis versions that are based an "internal" parallel results analysis version rather than on a multiple valuation view. This means that depending on the results analysis version you can:

    • Define different methods of results analysis
    • Reference different valuation methods and therefore use different results analysis methods
    • Define Valuation Methods for Results Analysis
    • Define the portion of the work in process to be capitalized differently
    • Apportion the entire work in process to the line IDs using different methods
    • Apportion the cost of sales and the reserves to the line IDs using different methods
  • Calculate results analysis data in up to three valuation views

    If you are using transfer prices, you can calculate the results analysis data in the following valuation views:

    • Legal view
    • Group view
    • Profit center view

The results analysis version shows you the following in Simplified Control:

  • Which valuation view was used to update the results analysis data (such as the Legal View)

    If you are not calculating the results analysis data in multiple valuation views, the results analysis version is always carried in the operational valuation view.

    Results analysis versions of parallel valuation views are always actual results analysis versions.

    Results analysis versions of multiple valuation views reference the results analysis version of the operational valuation view.

  • Whether it is a version that is relevant to settlement

    The version that is relevant to settlement is the results analysis version of the operational valuation view and the results analysis versions of multiple valuation views that reference this view.

  • Whether the data are transferred to Financial Accounting

    If Profit Center Accouting is active, it can be used to generate an additional posting for the work in process in Profit Center Accounting.

You can only settle the results of results analysis version 0 to Profitability Analysis.

Extended Control

Extended Control allows you to choose whether you want to:

  • Separate creation and usage of the work in process or reserves
  • Generate a line item for each posting
  • Allow legacy data to be transferred
  • Allow deletion of the results analysis data calculated with a results analysis version
  • Assign the cost elements to different line IDs depending on the results analysis key
  • Update the results analysis data under separate results analysis cost elements depending on the results analysis key
  • Enable the work in process to be calculated separately for orders that are assigned to a sales document item or WBS element

    This indicator is only relevant for nonvaluated sales order stocks and nonvaluated project stocks.

    If this indicator is set, the results analysis key in the assigned order takes precedence:

    • If no results analysis key is specified in the order, the actual costs for the order are included in results analysis for the sales order or project. Settlement is made on the sales order item or project.
    • If a results analysis key is specified in the order, the system creates work in process for the order in the amount of the actual costs incurred and settles this work in process. These costs are not included in results analysis for the sales order or project.

      If the indicator is not set, results analysis for these orders can only be carried out on the sales order item or WBS element.

You can define additional results analysis versions by making entries in Extended Control. These results analysis versions:

  • Are cross-company and thus not relevant for Financial Accounting
  • Simulate the effects of the planned revenue on the cost of sales

In Extended Control you can specify whether the results analysis key can be specified in the definition of the update rules and assignment rules. The valuation methods still refer to the combination of results analysis key and results analysis version.

  • If you want to perform results analysis for different objects (such as revenue-based results analysis for projects and WIP calculation for production orders), you should differentiate the upate rules by results analysis key.
  • If you want to perform results analysis using different methods (such as carrying revenue-based results analysis on a project while managing reserves for complaints on a separate complaint order assigned to the project) then you should differentiate the assignment rules by results analysis key. With extended control, you can define if actual results analysis data or planned results analysis data are determined.

Results Analysis Cost Elements

The results analysis version contains the following results analysis cost elements for updating data that is not distributed to line IDs:

You can group these cost elements in Simplified Control under a technical results analysis cost element.

To settle the costs to Profitability Analysis, you must define a PA transfer structure that contains at least this technical results analysis cost element. If you have defined multiple cost elements for results analysis data in Turn on apportionment of cost element, make sure that cost elements for results analysis data relevant to Profitability Analysis have been entered in the PA transfer structure.

Transfer to Financial Accounting is accomplished through the category results analysis of the posting rules.

You must enter the results analysis version manually when you perform results analysis.

Requirements

You must first carry out the following steps:

If you want to create new results analysis versions, read the documentation for results analysis under Product Cost Controlling -> Product Cost by Sales Order -> Period-End Closing

Standard Settings

The standard system contains predefined results analysis versions. To be able to use these results analysis versions in your production system and perform results analysis, you must first do following:

  • Create or generate cost elements for the results analysis data in your controlling area

    The data generated by results analysis are updated
