Use
Within period-end closing for Cost Center Accounting, period-related business transactions are executed after the period end.
This includes:
- Periodic reposting
- Accrual cost calculation
- Transfer of statistical key figures from the LIS (Logistics Information System)
- Overhead calculation
- Periodic allocations
- Variance calculation
- Predistribution of fixed costs
- Actual price calculation in Cost Center Accounting
Features
Schedule Manager
Schedule Manager assists you in carrying out and checking period-end closing (see: Schedule Manager).
Periodic Repostings
Periodic reposting is a posting adjustment method. It offers you the same results as several transaction-based repostings made during the fiscal year.
Accrual Calculation
Making accrual calculations involves determining accrued costs using percentage overhead rates. These are then apportioned to credit objects (cost centers or internal orders).
Transferring of Statistical Key Figures from the LIS
You can transfer statistical key figures in the Logistics Information System (LIS) to the Cost Center Accounting component (CO-OM-CCA).
Periodic Allocations
With periodic allocations, the costs incurred are allocated by means of user-defined keys (for example, fixed amounts or percentages). With this method, the actual costs incurred for each period can only be identified after the given period is closed.
Periodic allocations include
During distributions and assessments the system allocates costs incurred (or quantities incurred, for indirect activity allocations) according to user-defined keys. In Target=actual activity allocation the R/3 system determines the actual activity quantities to be allocated, based on the plan activity inputs of the receiver, and taking into account the operating rate of the receiver.
After allocating your costs and activities, you can calculate variances and actual activity prices.
Variance Calculation
Variance calculation lets you categorize and display variances incurred on cost centers by cost element. Variance calculation is based on the results of actual cost entry and the allocation methods as well as planning.
Predistribution of Fixed Costs
Predistribution of fixed costs lets you apportion the fixed costs, which were planned for the activity production, in full as actual costs to the cost centers that planned the activity input.
Actual Price Calculations
Actual price calculation lets you determine prices using exclusively actual data. You can use the actual activity price to revaluate all the activity in the actual. In this way, cost centers can be credited in full.
