Documentation

Definition

Indicator determining that activity prices for cost centers/activity types remain constant for the entire fiscal year.

Use

You can store a default value in the master data of an activity type or a business process.

You can overwrite the default value within planning if you are planning for the first time.

Procedure

This takes place either on the version level or per cost center/activity type in planning.

  1. Version

    Activity prices for cost centers/activity types remain constant for the entire fiscal year in the version. The total plan costs and activity are taken into account when activity prices are calculated. Monthly fluctuations are ignored. Activate the "Average activity price" indicator from the fiscal-year dependent version parameters in the version as a planning method.

  2. Cost center/activity type

    If you have not defined an average activity price for your version, you can define a constant activity price for the fiscal year for individual cost centers/activity types. Activity price calculation smoothes out fluctuations in the cost center/activity type activity price. Activate the appropriate indicator in activity type planning.

    A default value for planning can be saved in the activity type master record. This value can be overwritten during planning.
