Here you create cost object profiles for cost object nodes in a cost object hierarchy.

The cost object profile is selected through the cost object category.

The entries in the cost object profile appear as the following default values when you create a cost object ID:

  • Variance key

    The variance key contains control parameters for the calculation of production variances.

    The Variance key field is only shown in the cost object master record if you set the Variances indicator in the cost object category. If you intend to distribute the actual costs collected at the level of the hierarchy to the assigned orders, you should not specify a variance key for the hierarchy. If, in the case of actual cost distribution, you want to be certain that a variance calculation of the assigned orders can be carried out, make sure that a variance key has been entered in all material master records in the plant. This key is transferred into the orders for production of the material.

    See also: Default Variance Keys by Plant

  • Costing sheet
  • The costing sheet contains the parameters that control the calculation of overhead.

    The Costing sheet field is only displayed in the cost object master record if you set the Overhead indicator for the individual cost object category.

If you want to calculate the overhead at the order level, make sure that the Overhead indicator is not set. In this case the costing sheet for the orders is selected through the valuation variant. The overhead key is specified in the material master record.

  • Overhead key

    A costing sheet can be linked to an overhead key. This allows you to calculate a percentage rate for overhead that is only valid for a specific cost object ID.

    The Overhead key field is only displayed in the cost object master record if the Overhead indicator is set in the cost object category.

  • Settlement profile

    The settlement profile determines the following:

    • Which settlement receivers the costs incurred for the cost object nodes can be settled to
    • Which allocation structure and which PA settlement structure
    • the system proposes when you create a settlement rule

      If you intend to distribute the actual costs collected at the level of the hierarchy to the assigned orders, you should not specify a settlement profile for the hierarchy. Settlement is then, in the case of actual cost distribution, performed through the assigned orders (usually product cost collectors). The system automatically assigns the settlement rule to the product cost collector when the product cost collector is created. This assignment uses the default rule specified as a default value for each order type. In Product Cost by Period the default rules are:

    • For product cost collectors: "STR / Strategy for Tracing Factor Determination"
    • For manufacturing orders: "PP2 / Production Orders: Periodic Settlement"

Requirements

If you intend to use your own variance keys, costing sheets, and settlement profiles, process the following steps first:

Standard Settings

The standard system contains predefined cost object profiles.

Actions

  1. Check whether the predefined cost object profiles meet your requirements.
  2. To create a new cost object profile:
    1. Choose New entries.
    2. Enter a key for the cost object profile and give it a name.
    3. Enter the default values according to your requirements.
