The costing version enables you to save several cost estimates for the same material and to evaluate them in the information system.

When you cost materials, the costing variant you specify defines various control parameters for costing.

Because the costing variant contains all parameters for costing, it can be time consuming to create new costing variants every time you want to make minor changes in the control parameters.

The costing version enables you to simulate such changes without having to create new costing variants.

You can change the following:

  • Variants for transfer pricing

    You can define settings for the selection of transfer prices in Customizing for Enterprise Controlling.

    When you use costing versions, you can specify how these transfer variants are selected.

  • Exchange rate type for currency translation

    If you do not use costing versions, the exchange rate type is determined through the valuation variant specified in the costing variant.

    If you use costing versions, you can specify that a different exchange rate type should have priority.

  • Quantity structure type for mixed costing

    Mixed cost estimates are created with reference to a costing version. You can create more than one mixed cost estimate for the same material; such cost estimates are differentiated by their costing versions. See also: Define Quantity Structure Types

Requirements

Standard settings

Costing version 1 is the default in the application.

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Choose New Entries.
  2. Maintain at least one of the following fields for which you want the settings for transfer price determination, exchange rate type, and quantity structure type to be valid:
    1. Two-digit version number

      If you enter version number zero, this entry applies to all costing versions.

    2. Costing type

      If you do not enter a costing type, this entry applies to all costing types.

    3. Valuation variant

      If you do not enter a valuation variant, this entry applies to all valuation variants.

  3. Enter the transfer price version, exchange rate type, or quantity structure type you want the system to use.
  4. Enter a description for the costing version.
  5. Save your entries.

Further notes

You can update the results of a standard cost estimate that was calcuated using any costing version to the material master record. The system uses the costing version that was defined through the valuation variant and costing type combination.

Note

If you make the entries and also cost production versions, add the costing types for preliminary costing of product cost collectors under version zero and do not maintain any further fields for these entries. This ensures consistency when costing different versions in repetitive manufacturing.
