Definition

This indicator specifies which planned values are used in results analysis to calculate or determine the profit percentage.

Use

If you are using results analysis method 10 (inventory determination, without planned costs, without milestone billing) or 11 (inventory determination, without planned costs, with milestone billing), you do not need planned values to calculate results analysis data.

Profit bases E, K, C, F, M, and N are suitable for sales-order-related production.

Profit bases C and T are suitable for engineer-to-order environments.

Which profit basis you choose depends on how you have calculated your planned costs. This means that your method of cost planning determines which profit basis you should select.

Planned Cost Calculation in Sales-Order-Related Production

In Sales-Order-Related Production, planned costs can be calculated in: A unit cost estimate or product cost estimate for the sales order item

A price from the material master record can be used to calculate the planned costs.

Determination of the Profit Basis in Sales-Order-Related Production

  • Profit basis C (costs and revenues on basis of cost element planning data)

    Profit basis C calculates the planned costs by accessing the sales order cost estimate (unit cost estimate and product cost estimate for sales order item) plus the preliminary cost estimate for the manufacturing order assigned to the sales order item.

    The planned revenue is derived from the sales order item.

    Profit basis C corresponds to the indicator Plan value of object and dependent objects in Simplified Customizing of the valuation method.

  • Profit basis E (costs: cost estimate of object, revenue + quantity: object)

    Profit basis E uses the sales order cost estimate to calculate the planned costs.

    The planned revenue is derived from the sales order item.

    Profit basis E corresponds to the indicator Sales order costing in Simplified Customizing in the valuation method.

  • Profit basis F (costs: cost estimate of all items, revenue: all items)

    Profit basis F is relevant when you have costs and revenues on multiple sales order items and:

    • You only want to perform results analysis on one of the sales order item (see the indicator Sales order structure in the Expert Mode of the valuation method), and
    • You want to include the sales order cost estimates of all items and the revenues of all items in this results analysis

      To calculate the planned costs, profit basis F accesses the cost estimates of all sales order items (sales order cost estimates):

    • Which are below the sales order item for which a results analysis key is specified
    • For which the sales order item with with the results analysis key is a representative item

      The planned costs of manufacturing orders that are not assigned to the subitems, or that are not assigned to sales order items that are not representative items, are not included with profit basis F. If you want to include such planned costs,use profit basis C.

  • Profit basis K (costs: cost elements product costing material, revenue + quantity: object)

    Profit basis K calculates the planned costs by accessing the standard cost estimate of the material. Profit basis K uses the cost element itemization for the standard cost estimate. The cost element itemization for the standard cost estimate for the material can no longer be saved starting in Release 4.5A. The system calculates the cost element itemization dynamically. Dynamic calculation of the cost element itemization is based on the itemization. If you want to use profit basis K, save the itemization of the standard cost estimate of the material.

    The planned revenue is derived from the sales order item.

  • Profit basis M (costs: standard price of material, revenue + quantity: object)

    Profit basis M calculates the planned costs by accessing the standard price of the material.

    The planned revenue is derived from the sales order item.

    Profit basis M corresponds to the indicator Std price of material for sales order in Simplified Customizing for the valuation method.

    For more information on standard price calculation with a valuated sales order stock refer to the following:

    Check Requirements Classes.

  • Profit basis N (price mat. according to price control, revenue + quantity: object)

    Profit basis N calculates the planned costs by accessing the price according to the price control in the material master record.

    The planned revenue is derived from the sales order item.

Planned Value Calculation and Determination of the Profit Basis for Engineer-to-Order.

Costs can either be roughly estimated using structure-based planning for each WBS element or planned in detail by means of cost element planning with unit costing.

  • Cost element planning and unit costing

    If there is a detailed cost plan for the project or internal order, you should use profit basis C.

  • Structure planning

    If the costs for the project or internal order are only roughly estimated, you should use profit basis T and define a profit percentage in Customizing.

If no planning data are available, you can change the valuation basis so that you are using only actual costs, or change the profit basis so that a manually entered profit percentage is used.

Procedure

Use Simplified Control for all settings to the extent possible.
