Overhead Cost Controlling for Utilities

1 PurposeThis configuration guide provides the information you need to set up the configuration of this building block manually.

If you do not want to configure manually and prefer an automated installation process using eCATTs and BC Sets, use the Building Block Installation Assistant.

2 Preparation

2.1 Prerequisites2.1.1 Building BlocksBefore you start installing this building block, you must install prerequisite building blocks. For more information, see the building block prerequisite matrix (Prerequisites_Matrix_[xx]_EN_ZH.xls; the placeholder [xx] depends on the SAP Best Practices version you use, e.g. UTL refers to the SAP Best Practices Utilities Package: Prerequisites_Matrix_UTL_EN_ZH.xls). This document can be found on the SAP Best Practices documentation DVD in the folder ..\BBLibrary\General\.

3 Configuration

3.1 Basic Master Data3.1.1 Cost Elements and Groups

3.1.1.1 Deleting Unneeded Default Settings for Primary Cost Elements

UseCost elements are created with batch input sessions. SAP standard delivers some examples for creation of the batch input sessions, which are not used for SAP Best Practices. These examples have to be deleted so that the correct batch input sessions can be created.

Procedure1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

Transaction code OKB2
