Versions enable you to have independent sets of planning and actual data.
In planning, you use versions to configure alternative scenarios based on different assumptions. For example, the different versions can represent different employment markets, price and wage increases, or sales programs.
You normally configure the most likely scenario in version 000. The plan data you enter there forms the basis for calculating planned prices for activity types, and determines the rates with which activities containing actual amounts can be settled. Version 000 also contains all actual data postings. The plan and actual data for version 000 can be used in plan/actual comparisons and variance analysis.
You make settings for version maintenance on a hierarchical basis.
In this IMG activity you edit the general version definition on the client level.
- You make controlling area settings in the IMG for the Cost Center Accounting, Overhead Orders, or Activity-Based Costing components.
- You make profitability segment settings in the IMG for the Profitability Analysis component.
- You make profit center settings in the IMG for the Profit Center Accounting component.
Notes
- "Version" replaces the earlier term "plan/planning version".
- You can record plan and/or actual data in a version.
- In Activity-Based Costing, you can record actual data in different delta versions.
- If you use parallel valuations and transfer prices, you define parallel actual versions alongside operational version 000 in order to separate different valuations. Use the IMG activity Create Versions for Valuation Methods.
Complete the IMG step Maintain Controlling Area.
Standard Settings
When you create a controlling area, the SAP system automatically creates version 000, valid for five fiscal years. The first fiscal year depends on the control indicator you set when you created the controlling area:
- If the indicator is set for the current year or earlier, the five-year period begins with the current year.
- If the indicator is set for future years, the five-year period begins with the earliest of these years as the first year.
Recommendation
- If you want to plan in a single version only, use version 000.
- Actual primary cost data entry and actual data from internal acitivty allocation all post to version 000. SAP therefore recommends you use this version for all plan/actual comparisons.
Activities
Define a new version or make a copy of version 000 to change as you require.
Define the general settings for the version:
- Enter a key and a description.
- Determine whether to record plan and/or actual data. Activate the corresponding indicator.
You cannot activate the "Record actual data" indicator for version 001.
- For versions used only within a given component, set the corresponding indicator for exclusive use.
Note on transport
To transport versions, see the IMG under "General Controlling".
