1 Purpose

This scope item covers transaction-based actual postings that are used in overhead cost controlling. The purpose of overhead cost controlling is the planning,
allocation, control, and monitoring of overhead costs.
Cost center accounting takes the costs incurred in a company and allocates them to the actual subareas that caused them. During period-end closing, these
costs are distributed to cost centers through automatic allocation. By allocating the cost elements to cost centers in overhead cost controlling, you can con-
trol your costs and compare plan and actual costs. The plan/actual comparison at the end of the period helps you to plan, control, and monitor cost behavior.
Note Intercompany overhead calculation, settlement, and manual re-postings are supported. Intercompany allocation via Universal Allocation is currently
supported with some limitations.
Overhead cost controlling is also a prerequisite for further allocating overhead costs to cost objects (CO-PC), which enables you to conduct a period-specific
profitability analysis.
When running this scope item in the on-premise version, plan data is not visible in reports without the following optional configuration: Refer to SAP note
2596669 - Optional Configuration for 1HB.
This document provides a detailed procedure for testing this scope item after solution activation, reflecting the predefined scope of the solution. Each
process step, report, or item is covered in its own section, providing the system interactions (test steps) in a table view. Steps that are not in scope of the
process but are needed for testing are marked accordingly. Project-specific steps must be added.
Values in this test script (decimal notation, date formats, and so on) are presented in U.S. standard notation. If your test system is set up to use a different
notation, enter values as appropriate.

chy, perform this step again to get the latest information.
Also, you must manually replicate set-based hierarchies (such as Cost Center Group or Profit Center Group) and financial statement hierarchies to the back-
end database hierarchy tables. Normally, this is created as a periodic job that runs in the background.

2.5.5 Optional: Updating Cost Center Budget Profiles (Only Required When Using Cost Cen-

Purpose

● The default content comes with budget profile CC001- Cost Center Budget and mapped to sample groups for travel cost and material. The customer must
either adopt this profile or create new as per your requirement.
Adjustments to the budget profile CC001 has to be adapted for your specific company requirements prior to any budget-relevant postings. Retroactively cap-
turing budget-relevant postings is not possible.
1. Cost Center Budget availability control is at G/L account group (unlike Project this is not linked to FSV and semantic Tags)
2. G/L account group can be created either via the Edit Cost Element Groups app or the Manage Global Accounting Hierarchies - GL Account Hierarchy app.
3. All the G/L account group assigned to a particular budget profile should be part of same G/L account Hierarchy (top node of groups).
4. To actively use hierarchy created via Edit Cost Element Groups app in customizing, the prerequisites to set report relevancy via Set Report Relevancy - Set-
Based Hierarchies (HRY_REPRELEV) app (for example, for default content set class 0102, org YCOA, set name YBA000-CE and Include sub-node), and repli-
cate runtime hierarchy (example for default content 0102/YCOA/YBA000_CE) must be carried out. The default content comes with GL Hierarchy
YBA000_CE and customer can assign any groups to this as per their requirements and edit the predefined profile CC001- Cost Center Budget.

Purpose

Using profit center distribution, it is possible to distribute balance sheet account balances to and from various profit centers. In this business example, the as-
sets are held in a central profit center (shared service), and these amounts and costs are allocated across the various business units’ profit centers.

Prerequisites

1. Create an asset using the Create Asset app using Asset Class 2000. For details on how to create asset, refer to Create Asset (BNI).
2. Enter acquisition using the Post Acquisition (Non-Integrated) - With Automatic Offsetting Entry (ABZOL) app with the following data:
• Existing Asset: as created above
• Document Date: 1/15/2019
• Posting Date: same date as above
• Asset Value Date: same date a above
• Amount Posted: 96000
3. A G/L account for allocation clearing must be available. Create G/L 29500000 CO Allocation Clearing using the GL 29500100 as reference. For details on
how to create the G/L, refer to Create G/L Account and Cost Element (BNG) test script.
4. Plan and actual assessment cycle demo data has been created for testing. For details on how to create your own plan and actual assessment cycle defin-
ing senders and receivers, see the Create Universal Allocation Master Data (2US) test script. Mass upload of allocation cycles is possible for the creation of
new allocations and/or new segments via the Manage Allocation app (F3338) using the Upload Cycles button. You can either download a blank template or
select an existing allocation cycle to download as template.

Note This section is applicable only if you select non-standard scope item 2I3 - Commitment Management which is also a prerequisite for budgeting. You
have additional features in cost centers to view commitments & budgets in which to monitor your expenses.
Budgeting is a part of the cost monitoring process. Commitment management line items in SAP S/4HANA Cloud are triggered by expense purchase requisi-
tions and/or purchase orders that utilize cost centers and a material master. These commitments are updated in Extension Ledger 0E (predelivered) in AC-
DOCA table. Commitments are reduced by various business transactions such as goods receipt.
Cost Center Budgeting utilizes profiles CC001 which allows you assign a G/L account hierarchy and G/L account group to specify the general ledger accounts
applicable for your cost center budgets. The default content utilizes G/L account hierarchy YBA000_CE and two G/L account groups, 1200_CE Production costs
materials and 1900_CE Travel costs.
Once you create your G/L account hierarchy and G/L account groups, you must perform the Set Report Relevancy and Replicate Runtime Hierarchy steps as
covered in the Preliminary Steps section of this document.

Purpose

Once the plan data file is saved in the template, open the Import P&L Plan Data app and select a source file.
The app performs the following checks:
1. The app checks whether the values in the source file are valid. If required, it returns a list of error messages. You must correct the values in the source file
until they are all valid before you can proceed.
2. If all values are valid, the app selects the distinct values for all characteristics of the plan data scope (as defined in the third row of the source file).
● If no plan data exists in the system for any combination of these characteristic values, you can directly import the plan data.
● If plan data exists in the system for any combination of these characteristic values, the app displays the affected values. It assumes that you want to com-
pletely replace the existing plan data by the new plan data import.
