SAP finance and controlling report provides a summarized view of the costs, activities, and statistical key figures that posted to cost centers. The report includes both planned and actual postings, and calculates an absolute variance (difference), as well as a percentage of the variance. This report allows for a consolidated view of multiple internal orders at any given time. A balance of order postings is also calculated.
Any balance left in the order, either an over- or under-absorption of costs, is usually settled to another receiver, typically a cost center. A cost center manager who placed the order or a manager of a small project whose project work is performed by several different cost centers would use this report to plan costs and monitor progress against the plan.
You must set the Controlling Area before running the report. Choose Accounting → Controlling→ Cost centers → Environment → Set controlling area. Let us have the controlling area is set to 2000 for this example.
You must enter a value in the selection fields before running the report. You may leave the cost center and cost element selection blank, and get a list that contains values for all cost centers and all cost elements in the selected controlling area. If you enter cost center groups and cost element groups, they must have already been set up. If they contain subtotals, hierarchy nodes should be created within the groups. Each hierarchy node then subtotals in this report.
You can run multiple context-sensitive reports from this internal order report. For example, when you position the cursor on a cell for planned costs, only the reports that contain planned costs list data. If you select a cell for planned costs and run a report that only contains actual data, no data lists.
The following report run for a single cell or a range of cells:
- Actual line items for one or more orders
- Planned line items for one or more orders
- Planning overview for a single order
- Actual values, by period (should be used for the cumulative views)
