You need to define a switch scheme, if within cost component split for price calculation you do not want a cost component split for primary costs only. In other words, where for an activity allocation, the allocated costs on the receiver are entered on a cost component different from that of the sender. You then determine which sender cost element is to be entered on which receiver cost element.

In price calculation, a cost component structure is used for price component splitting. This structure stores which cost elements are to be directed into which component.

For example, you can note in the cost component structure that material cost elements assigned to the sender component "Raw materials" and wage costs assigned to the sender component "Personnel" can be directed to the receiver component "Energy".

As the structure is used only with a specific combination of cost center/activity type, it is entered in the activity type planning of the sender. The corresponding planning structure for activity type planning using a switching structure is found in planner profile SAP104.

Activities

Create a switching structure if you require one

To do so, proceed as follows:

  1. Assign an existing cost component structure to a switching structure.
  2. Assign the structure's components to target components.
  3. Save your entries.

Further notes

For more information and an example, see the SAP Library under Financials -> CO Controlling -> Cost Center Accounting -> Period-End Closing -> Actual Price Calculation -> Price Calculation with Cost Component Split.

Note on transport

You can also transport switching structures manually. To do this, choose Table View -> transport.
