Use

In plan revaluation, you can enter a single object, a range of objects, or an object group as selection criteria. If you enter a group, all the objects in the group are processed when you revalue the plan.

Examples

You should enter cost center groups if you want to revalue the plan costs of certain areas in the company, such as administration or production, and if you want to revalue the cost elements within the group en masse.

You should enter cost element groups if you want to revalue different types of costs, such as material consumption and depreciation, across a wide range of cost centers.
