Documentation

Definition

Key specifying the category of consumption posting for items having this account assignment category.

Supplementary Documentation - EKVBR 0000

Use

In sales-order-related production, the consumption posting field determines whether the costs of sales-order-related production are collected under a sales order item. In this case you flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying.

The collection of costs under the sales order item is recommended in the case of complex make-to-order production. The collection of costs under the sales order item is not advisable in the case of sales-order- related mass production.

Procedure

To flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying, enter an "E" (settlement via sales order).

If you do not wish to flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying, do not enter anything.

Examples

Dependencies

If you are working with nonvaluated sales order stock, always flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying.

If you are working with valuated sales order stock:

  • In the case of complex make-to-order production, flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying
  • In the case of sales-order-related mass production, do not flag the sales order item as cost- and revenue-carrying
