Definition

This shows the input quantity variance in controlling area currency.

Use

An input quantity variance is a variance category in variance calculation.

Variance calculation is one of the period-closing activities in Cost Object Controlling. It calculates the variance for an order and assigns the resulting value to different categories, helping to explain the causes of the variance.

A quantity variance is the difference between the planned input quantity and the actual input quantity.

Prerequisites

You must already have performed variance calculation to be able to see the variance broken down into variance categories.

You must also have selected this variance category in the variance variant. If you haven't done this, the value of this variance will be reported as a remaining input variance.

Further Informationen

For more information on variance categories, see the documentation in Cost Object Controlling under Period-End Closing.
