In this step you check the requirements classes to make sure that they meet the requirements of Cost Object Controlling.

In this step you view or change the parameters in the requirements class that are relevant to cost accounting. You create the requirements class in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.

You do this in Customizing for Sales and Distribution under Define requirements classes.

Costing

The Costing indicator in the requirements class controls for a sales order item whether:

  • Costing is required
  • Costing is simulated
  • Costing is allowed
  • Costing is not allowed

The Costing ID indicator controls whether a sales order cost estimate is automatically costed, or automatically costed and marked.

The requirements class contains additional default values for costing:

  • Costing method

    The costing method determines whether the sales order cost estimate is created using the functions of product costing or unit costing. If you don't enter a costing method in the requirements class, then you specify the costing method in the application.

  • Costing variant

    The costing variant contains control parameters for product costing and unit costing. If you don't enter a costing variant, you must select a costing variant in cost estimate.

  • Costing sheet

    The costing sheet contains control parameters for the calculation of overhead. It determines the following:

    • Which direct costs (such as direct material costs) the overhead is allocated to
    • The conditions (such as by controlling area or plant) under which overhead is calculated
    • The amount of the percentage or quantity-based overhead rate depending on these conditions
    • Which object (such as cost center or order) is credited during actual postings, and under what cost element
    • An overhead key (if applicable)
    • Which template should be selected for the sales order item

The Copy costing sheet indicator controls whether the costing sheet in the sales order item is transferred to all assigned production orders.

In the requirements class for product costing, you can use the Pass on costing sheet indicator to specify that the costing sheet in the sales order item is used for calculating overhead for subordinate materials from individual requirements. The costing type is selected through the costing variant.

The field CndTypLineItems (condition type for transferring costs from line items) allows you to control which condition type the results of a sales order item are written under. This condition type is valid for all sales document items of this requirements class. Entering condition types in the requirements class allows you to use different condition types for different sales document items in the same sales document.

The field CondTypIndItFx (condition type for fixed cost transfer from line items) allows you to specify that the fixed costs of the results of the sales order item are transferred separately. This transfer of fixed costs is in addition to the transfer of costs from line items. The fixed cost transfer is statistical and improves analysis of the contribution margin.

Account Assignment

The requirements class also contains the following parameters that are relevant to Cost Object Controlling:

  • Account assignment category

    The requirements class specifies an account assigment category. The account assignment category determines the following:

    • Whether the material is carried in the sales order stock
    • Whether the sales order item carries costs and revenues
  • You control the following in the requirements class with the indicator Valuation:
    • Whether the sales order stock is valuated (entry: M and A)
    • Whether the sales order stock is nonvaluated (no entry)

      With a sales order item that carries costs and revenues, the costs are handled as follows:

    • With the valuated sales order stock, the costs are assigned to the sales order item at the time of delivery to the customer.
    • With a nonvaluated sales order stock, the costs are collected on production orders and settled at the end of the period to the sales order item or - for externally procured trading goods - assigned directly to the sales order item.
  • The W/o val. strat. indicator controls the following:
    • Whether the sales order stock is valuated with the standard price on the basis of a predefined strategy sequence
    • In this case you don't set the indicator. For information on the strategy sequence, see the field help for W/o val. strat..
    • Whether the sales order stock is valuated with the standard price of the non-customer stock.
    • See also: W/o val. strat.
  • Settlement profile

    The settlement profile determines the following:

    • The settlement receiver (for example, profitability segment or G/L account) to which the results analysis data calculated for the sales order item (such as the cost of sales, reserves for imminent loss) or the costs and revenues on the sales order item can be settled
    • The maximum number of distribution rules
    • Whether the settlement share should be calculated as a percentage or in equivalence numbers
    • Which allocation structure or PA settlement structure is proposed as a default when a settlement rule is created
  • Results analysis key
  • Functional area
    • For more information on the functional area, see the SAP Library under FI -> Cost of Sales Accounting

Other Settings

The following parameters can also be applicable to Cost Object Controlling:

  • Assembly type

    In assembly processing, a manufacturing order, network, service order, or planned order is generated together with the sales order. You can perform assembly processing with two different methods: static (a manufacturing order or planned order is generated for a sales order item) or dynamic (multiple manufacturing orders or planned orders can be generated for a sales order item). You select the method of assembly processing in the assembly type.

  • Sales order costing

In static assembly processing with manufacturing orders, you can transfer the planned costs for the manufacturing order or the costs calculated on the basis of the sales order cost estimate into SD pricing. You control this with the Sales order costing indicator.

Activities

Check the requirements classes.

Further notes

For more information, see Define Requirements Classes.

The requirements class is determined through the requirements type. You can choose the requirements type as follows:

  • Through the item category group in the Sales view of the material master record the order type of the SD document (inquiry, quotation, sales order)
  • Through the MRP group or the strategy group in the MRP view of the material master record
