Help Document

Diagnosis

According to the mapping table, you want to merge cost element and cost element in controlling area into a new cost element called .

The two source cost elements have different validity periods, which may result in overlaps.

Depending on the settings in the mapping table maintenance (priority indicator), the start date and end date for the cost element may change, and overlaps of the validity dates for the existing validity intervals of a cost element may occur.

These inconsistencies are removed in the phase Postprocessing Programs DURING System Lock in the activity Adapt Validity Date of Cost Elements. In this step, all existing validity intervals for a cost element are processed in accordance with the following rules:

  • All validity intervals for a cost element are considered, starting from the earliest interval (earliest to-date) and progressing into the future.
  • The from-date (CSKB-DATAB) that is the earliest one after the conversion is set to the from-date that lay furthest in the past before the conversion.
  • If the from-date of the next interval lies before the to-date of the interval that is currently being processed, the from-date of the next interval is set to the day after the to-date of the current interval.
  • The to-date (CSKB-DATBI) that is the latest one after the conversion is set to the to-date that lay furthest in the future before the conversion.

System Response

Procedure

Note that checks/adaptations in the area of cost element validity will be required after the conversion.

Check if the adaptation logic meets your requirements. If necessary, adapt the validity periods manually after the conversion.

Further notes

This message is merely a warning that additional work may be necessary after the conversion.

The log for the program for adapting the validity date of cost elements contains detailed information regarding the places where changes were made.
