Documentation
Definition
This field contains the accumulated total of all period values. The field group type determines whether this is a currency amount or a quantity or a weighting factor.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL0001
Use
This field group is used to weight the activity types created on a cost center. The activity-independent costs planned on a cost center are assigned to the activity types based on this weighting.
Examples
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1001
Use
Planning
- Activity input to receiver cost centers, orders, projects, or cost objects (product costing)
- Activity quantities issued on sender cost centers
The plan/actual consumption multiplied by the activity price equals the debit to the receiver cost center or order and the equivalent credit to the sender cost center.
Procedure
You cannot change the "Plan manually" indicator in the CO activity input part of the planning parameters. In activity-input planning you can enter or change a value in this field group.
In the activity-dependent activity input part, you must cross off the relevant indicator if you want to enter or change the total consumption or fixed consumption manually.
If you do not cross off this indicator, you cannot plan any consumption, but only display existing consumption.
Examples
Note
You can post both plan and actual values to these field groups.
Dependencies
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1002
Use
Field group used to store costs arising during internal activity allocation, to which both plan and actual values can be posted. The value is stored in sender cost center currency and is calculated from the plan/actual quantity multiplied by the internal activity price in sender cost center currency.
Procedure
This field group can be displayed only, provided the conditions stated in the note are met.
Examples
Dependencies
Note
This field group is only updated if the "Update all currencies" indicator is set for the relevant controlling area and fiscal year. If the indicator is not set, the costs can only be calculated in the controlling area currency.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1003
Use
Field group used to store plan and actual costs incurred during activity allocation. The values are translated from the controlling area currency and stored in the (receiver) cost center currency or order currency.
The SAP System uses the exchange rate type and the value date for the relevant version and current fiscal year for this calculation.
Procedure
This field group can only be displayed if the conditions stated in the note are met.
Examples
Dependencies
Note
This field group is only updated if the "Update all currencies" indicator is set for the relevant controlling area and fiscal year. If this indicator is not set, costs can only be calculated in controlling area currency.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1004
Use
Field group used to store costs arising from internal activity allocation. You can post both plan and actual values. The values are determined from the plan or actual quantity multiplied by the plan activity price. The SAP System stores the value in controlling area currency.
Procedure
The field group can be displayed at any time.
Examples
Dependencies
Note
If you have set the "Update all currencies" indicator for the relevant controlling area and fiscal year, the SAP System also calculates the costs in the (receiver) cost center currency or order currency. If this indicator is not set, the SAP System calculates the costs in controlling area currency only.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1005
Use
Field group used to plan the output of an activity on a cost center.
The debit for each activity on the cost center is the plan or actual quantity multiplied by the plan price for the activity.
Procedure
If you want to enter or change the plan activity quantity, you must cross off the "Plan manually" field in the planning parameters.
If the "Plan manually" field is not crossed off, the plan activity can only be displayed.
Examples
Note
This field group can be posted with both plan and actual values.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1006
Use
Field group used to plan the maximum possible output of a cost center making full use of all the available resources.
Procedure
If you want to enter or change the activity capacity in cost center planning, you must cross off the "Plan manually" field in the planning parameters.
If the "Plan manually" field is not crossed off, the plan activity capacity can only be displayed.
Examples
Note
This field group is only posted in planning.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1007
Use
Field group used to plan the output of an activity on a cost center in a unit of measure different from the activity quantity.
You can determine this output by multiplying the activity quantity by the output factor either manually or automatically by using the menu path Edit -> Calculate output.
The output factor is defined in the activity master. You can overwrite the default value when you first plan an activity on a cost center by using the menu path Edit -> Control data.
Procedure
If you want to create or change the planned output, you must cross off the "Plan manually" field in the planning parameters.
You can neither change nor display the output if the "Plan manually" field is not crossed off.
Examples
"TURN01" is the name of the activity performed on lathe No. 1 in the factory. This lathe produces 35 pieces within one hour. The output factor is thus 35. If the machine runs for 80 hours a month, the output equals
80 hours * 35 pieces/hour = 2800 pieces.
Note
This field group can be posted with both plan and actual values.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1008
Use
Field group used to display and store the complete activity consumption used by other CO objects (such as cost centers) in activity input planning.
Procedure
To display the scheduled activity on the first screen in cost center planning, you must cross off the "First display in entry screen" field in the planning parameters.
If you do not cross off this field, the scheduled activity is displayed on a screen after the initial entry screen.
Examples
Note
The scheduled activity cannot be planned or changed manually in activity planning.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1009
Use
This field group is used to weight the activity types created on a cost center. The activity-independent costs planned on a cost center are assigned to the activity types based on this weighting.
Examples
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1010
Use
Field group used to set manually the total (fixed + variable) or fixed internal price of an activity on a cost center. The SAP System stores this value in cost center currency.
The credit to the cost center is derived from the plan or actual quantities taken by other cost centers multiplied by the plan activity price.
Procedure
To set the activity prices manually, you must
- cross off the relevant field in the planning parameters
- set the activity price to "3" with the menu path Activity price -> Edit -> Control data
- assign a realistic value to the activity price
If you do not cross off the field in the planning parameters, the SAP System automatically calculates the activity price in cost center currency using the controlling area currency, provided the required conditions are met (see note). In this case, the activity price is displayed in controlling area currency, but cannot be changed manually.
Examples
Note
This field group is only updated if the "Update all currencies" indicator is active for the relevant controlling area and fiscal year. If the indicator is not active, you can only plan activity prices in controlling area currency.
If the indicator is active, the activity price in cost center currency is used to calculate the debits and credits in cost allocations. If the indicator is not active, the activity price in controlling area currency is used instead.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1011
Use
Field group used to set manually the total (fixed + variable) or fixed internal activity price on a cost center in controlling area currency.
The plan/actual quantities taken by other cost centers multiplied by the plan activity price equals the credit to the cost center.
Procedure
To set the activity prices manually, you must
- cross off the relevant field in the planning parameters,
- set the activity price indicator to "3" using the menu path Activity types -> Edit -> Control data.
- Enter a realistic value for the activity price in planning.
If you do not set the indicator, the SAP System automatically calculatesthe activity price in controlling area currency based on the price in cost center currency provided the conditions for updating all currencies are met (see note). In this case, the activity price is displayed in controlling area currency and cannot be changed manually.
Examples
Note
This field group is updated if the "Update all currencies" indicator is set for the relevant controlling area and fiscal year. If the indicator is not set, you can only plan activity prices in controlling area currency.
If the indicator is set, the activity price in cost center currency is used to calculate credits and debits for cost allocations. Otherwise the activity price in controlling area currency is used.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1012
Use
The plan activity quantity multiplied by the fixed activity price in cost center currency equals the plan fixed credit in cost center currency.
Procedure
If you want to display the plan credit in cost center currency in the first planning screen, you must activate this field group in the planning parameters.
If you do not activate this field group, the plan credit will be displayed on one of the subsequent screens, provided the conditions for updating currencies are met (see note).
Note
This field group can only be displayed if the "Update all currencies" indicator is activated for the fiscal year in the controlling area control data. If this is not the case, the plan credit is only displayed in controlling area currency.
The plan credit is calculated by the SAP System. The field cannot be changed in planning.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1013
Use
The plan activity quantity multiplied by the fixed activity price equals the cost center plan credit in controlling area currency.
Procedure
If you want to display the plan credit in controlling area currency on the first planning screen, you must activate this field group in the planning parameters.
If you do not activate the plan credit field group in the planning parameters, it is shown in one of the subsequent screens.
Note
The plan credit is calculated automatically by the SAP System. This field group cannot be changed in planning.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1014
Procedure
To plan costs in a foreign currency, you must cross off the relevant field in the planning parameters and enter a value in primary cost planning.
Use
If you cross off the relevant field in the planning parameters, the SAP System automatically calculates the costs in cost center currency, order currency,and controlling area currency. The costs are converted in the following order:
Costs in transaction currency -> costs in controlling area currency -> costs in cost center and order currency
Examples
Note
- You can only plan costs in a foreign currency if you specified in configuration with the "All currencies" indicator that these update the controlling area and fiscal year. You receive a warning message if this is not the case. If you ignore the warning, the planning parameters entered are used, but you can only plan the costs in the CO area currency.
- You should make sure that entries are defined in the exchange rate table for any exchange rates that may be needed.
Maintain Exchange Rates
- If an update in a particular foreign currency is allowed, you can display all the currency field groups irrespective whether these are planned manually or not.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1015
Procedure
To plan costs in the cost center currency or order currency, you must cross off the relevant field in the planning parameters and enter a value in primary cost planning.
Use
If you do not cross off the field, the SAP System calculates the costs in the controlling area currency.
If you also want to plan the costs in transaction currency, the system calculates the costs in the controlling area currency from the values in transaction currency.
The costs are not converted if the costs are also planned manually in controlling area currency.
If the field is not crossed off in the planning parameters, the SAP System automatically calculates the costs in the cost center currency from the values in controlling area currency.
Note
- You can only plan costs in a foreign currency if you specified in configuration with the "All currencies" indicator that these update the controlling area and fiscal year. You receive a warning message if this is not the case. If you ignore the warning, the planning parameters entered are used, but you can only plan the costs in the CO area currency.
- You should make sure that entries are defined in the exchange rate table for any exchange rates that may be needed.
Maintain Exchange Rates
- If an update in a particular foreign currency is allowed, you can display all the currency field groups irrespective whether these are planned manually or not.
Examples
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1016
Procedure
To plan costs in the controlling area currency, you must cross off the relevent field in the planning parameters and enter a value in primary cost planning.
Use
If you activate the field in the planning parameters, the SAP System automatically calculates the costs in order currency and cost center currency.
If the field is not activated, the SAP System calculates the costs from the values in transaction currency, or in cost center or order currency, depending on which of the field groups is planned manually.
Examples
Note
- You can only plan costs in a foreign currency if you specified in configuration with the "All currencies" indicator that these update the controlling area and fiscal year. You receive a warning message if this is not the case. If you ignore the warning, the planning parameters entered are used, but you can only plan the costs in the CO area currency.
- You should make sure that entries are defined in the exchange rate table for any exchange rates that may be needed.
Maintain Exchange Rates
- If an update in a particular foreign currency is allowed, you can display all the currency field groups irrespective whether these are planned manually or not.
Supplementary Documentation - PLAN_TOTAL1017
Use
Field used to plan the consumption of a primary cost element for statistical use.
Procedure
If you want to plan consumption as well as costs on the cost elements, you must activate the relevant field in the planning parameters.
If the field is not activated, you cannot enter or change the plan consumption, but merely display it.
You can only enter the consumption when planning primary costs if the "Record quantity" indicator is crossed off in the master record of the primary cost element and a unit of measure is specified.
Examples
Note
Planning parameters which are not intended for planning consumption cannot be used with cost planning in product costing because all field groups are required there.
