what is statistical measure provider template? and how we use it in the cost accounting module?
how to determine and choose these different fields?
Does anyone have the answers?
and how to import statistical dimensions? when i import, i cannot continue with it. only i can create manually new statistical dimensions.
in cost accounting module, i cinfigured cost elements, cost objects and used statistical measures and dimension hierarchy of the system. then, i created electricity and shipping in statistical provider templates. then, in cost accounting ledger, i generated statistical and general ledger data. then, regarding the policies, i used only cost behavior, cost distribution and cost allocation and did the overhead calculation. is there any step missing? this is a new legal entity. only journal entries regarding the main account 605120 electricity to different dimensions. the cost entries after overhead calculation are calculated and distributed but how they got the results? where the value did come from? and why in statistical measures in cost control workspace, electricity and employees values are available where shipping has still a zero value where i also add it to statistical measures provider template same as electricity and employees. can you help me please?
hello, regarding the cost control workspace, the cost is showing regarding the actuals. but the table related to statistical measures, is showing only employees which is always the same number. how statistical measures in cost control is calculated? based on what? how it takes and calculate data?
thank you. is there anytime today that we can have a small call?
You can use cost objects
Cost object
Any type of object that is selected for cost control. Costs or revenues are either directly posted on or allocated to cost objects. Some typical cost objects are:
Products
Projects
Departments
Cost centers
Management uses cost objects to quantify costs, but also to drive profitability analysis.
There can be more than one cost object selected.
For your case, you need to select project and product as cost objects
You need to define n cost control unÄŸits in tree hierarchy.
Cost control unit
The cost control unit represents the cost structure. The structure determines how cost flows in a hierarchical order between cost object dimensions and their respective cost objects.
how to use the cost accounting module for products and projects instead of using cost centers?
learn.microsoft.com/.../allocation-bases
Formula allocation bases
Formula allocation bases let you define advanced formulas to achieve the correct allocation basis. You can manually create formula allocation bases.
Hierarchy allocation bases
Cost accountants can manually create the hierarchy allocation bases by applying a cost object dimension hierarchy node to an existing allocation base. In this way, you can limit the range of the original predefined dimension member allocation basis.
They are not mandatory.
Sorry , not available for a call.
how we use formula allocation base and hierarchy allocation base? is it obligatory to use them? and for what?
