Enter Manual Cost Allocations
Application component: Controlling
App type: SAP GUI
Scope items: Data Migration to SAP S/4HANA from Staging
Description:  As an alternative to the classic SAP GUI apps Enter Manual Cost Allocations (KB15N), Display Manual Cost Allocations (KB16N), and Reverse Manual Cost Allocations (KB17N), you can also use the Fiori app Reassign Costs and Revenues (F2009). 
Key features:  You can use manual cost allocation to allocate primary and secondary cost element categories. You can use all cost element categories that may be used for allocations within Controlling. An exception to this is category 43 (allocation of activities/processes) which may only be used for activity allocation. Note If you manually repost an accrual cost element, the SAP System will ignore the corresponding values during a subsequent accrual calculation. Constraints You can only use manual cost allocation for actual postings. It is not possible to copy data records that were generated using manual cost allocation into plan data. The SAP System does not currently support the transfer of mass data. Example During an assessment, the “Energy”cost center incorrectly allocated automatically heating costs of 1,000 USD to the trade fair order. These costs should have been allocated to the “General Administration”cost center. In this case you can use manual allocation to make the necessary adjustments. You should proceed as follows:Manually allocate the heating costs of 1,000 USD again, this time, however, negative, from the “Energy”cost center to the trade fair order. Then allocate the 1,000 USD manually to the “General Administration”cost center.  This ensures that the receiver cost center recognizes the “Energy”cost center as the sender.  If you execute an automatic assessment or allocation after executing a manual allocation, note that the cost elements used for the manual allocation must be stored in the corresponding allocation structure  assessment or settlement. Example If in the above example you manually allocate the heating costs of 1,000 USD directly from the trade fair order to the “General administration”cost center, the SAP System does not recognize the “Energy”as the original sender. The manual allocation from the trade fair order to the “General administration”cost center occurs without reference to previous postings. This means that the SAP System cannot display internal business volume, even if the “Energy”cost center and the “General administration”cost center belong to the same cost center group.

Enter Statistical Key Figures
Application component: Controlling
App type: SAP GUI
Scope items: Overhead Cost Accounting
Description:  You can enter statistical key figures to be used in reporting or as tracing factors for period-based allocations. They are also used in transaction-based allocations in Controlling. Example Cafeteria costs are allocated monthly to all cost centers based on the number of employees in each cost center. The statistical key figure Employees is used as the tracing factor for allocating the costs. 
Key features:  Note the key figure category when you enter the statistical key figures: Fixed values are carried forward from the posting period to all the subsequent posting periods of the fiscal year. Changes are valid for the subsequent periods until a new value is entered (for example, number of employees).  Key figures defined as Totals values are valid only in the posting period in which they are entered. When changing values, you first have to undo the existing value with a reversed +/- sign and then enter a new value (for example, number of telephone units).

Enter Activity Allocation Reposting - Indirect Allocation
Application component: Controlling
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   You repost internal activity allocations to adjust any incorrect postings arising during the internal activity allocation.  Repostings enable you to adjust an internal activity allocation without the need to reverse the document first and then make an adjustment posting. 
Key features:   You select the internal activity allocations that are to be reposted on a selection screen, and then process them. This makes it possible, for example, to:  Process together all the activity allocations of a receiver  Repost to two receivers an activity quantity that was previously allocated to only one receiver  Repost a portion of the posted activity quantity  Post an activity allocation to a different receiver  The changed document rows are checked by the system, and the data, provided it contains no errors, is updated in one workstep. Through a reference document number, the system creates a reference between the document from the source activity allocation and the adjustment document. You can only post direct internal activity allocations that have been posted in Controlling. You cannot repost activity allocations that were not posted in Controlling.  Project confirmation  You can only repost those project confirmation documents in CO, which are related to activity allocation. Time recording using cross-application time sheets  You can only repost the documents from time recording using cross-application time sheets (CATS) in CO, which relate to activity allocation. You can use background processing to post the time records to CO (see: Time Sheets ).  Note You have the option of reposting the internal activity allocation in a different period. Due to the negative activity flow between the old receiver and the sender, the old receiver may contain a negative quantity.For non-period-related internal activity allocations, you should therefore use a cumulative price, as other price calculations would lead to incorrect results (see: Actual Price Calculation ).  If you are using reposting of internal activity allocations together with predetermination of fixed costs (see: Predetermination of Fixed Costs ) and the sender is participating in the predistribution, it depends on the receiver whether the overall costs or only the variable costs should be allocated (see: Direct Activity Allocation ).

Edit Manual  Price - Cost Centers - Actual
Application component: Activity Types
App type: SAP GUI
Description:  You can manually produce an actual price for an activity type in a cost center or for a business process, independent of the actual price determination. This price is used for the evaluation of the activity relationship between cost centers or business processes. It can be set manually depending on the price indicator, or retroactively through the actual price calculation. 
Key features:  You can set the fixed or variable part of the actual price in cost centers for an activity type. Moreover, you can determine actual price units and actual price indicators (see price indicators). Similarly, planning layout 1-N01 shows the data booked to the plan price. For business processes, you can define the fixed and variable parts of the actual price, actual price unit, and actual price indicator (see Price Indicators ). Similarly, planning layout 1-Q01 shows the data booked to the plan price.

Simulate CO-PA Valuation - Profitability Analysis
Application component: Profitability Analysis
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   There are various functions with which you can analyze your Customizing settings for valuating actual and planning data.  
Key features:   With the Customizing Monitor , you can gain an overview of all the Customizing settings relevant to CO-PA valuation.  The Valuation Analysis option is attached to different functions (such as manual line item entry or manual planning) and enables you to analyze in detail at the value field level all the individual valuation steps executed by the system during a given CO-PA valuation strategy.  With the Valuation Simulation function, you can analyze the effect Customizing settings have at different points of valuation, without having to use a posting transaction.   Customizing Monitor   You access the CO-PA Customizing Monitor by choosing Tools  Analysis  Check Customizing Settings . Then you can select the Overview of valuation node to display - in conjunction with the operating concern, point of valuation, and record type - the valuation strategies that have been defined.  Valuation Analysis   You can perform detailed valuation analysis using a range of functions with which valuation is possible. Examples of such functions are:  Manual Line Item Entry   Simulating Billing Document Transfer (you access the analysis tool by choosing Tools  Analysis in CO-PA Customizing)   Simulation of Document Transfer from Incoming Sales Orders  Subsequent Posting of Billing Documents  Periodic Valuation of Actual Data   Manual Planning Data Entry    When you have carried out valuation, start the analysis by choosing Extras  Valuation analysis . The system then presents you with information about the business transactions in the valuation strategy that you executed. Such information includes the values that were entered and those that were issued. Moreover, you can display detailed information about the individual valuation methods and then jump to the Customizing settings.  Among the options open to you, you can execute a condition analysis for valuation with conditions and run an access analysis to see how a material cost estimate is read with flexible access. You call up these two functions separately:  For the access analysis, choose Extras  Analyze Product Cost Planning  For the condition analysis, choose Edit  Condition analysis   Valuation Simulation   To test valuation in detail or to run a detailed analysis of errors, you can simulate valuation in Customizing by choosing Tools  Analysis  Valuation Simulation  for the different points of valuation  . The screen that appears matches that for manual line item entry, but   no values are posted  . From this screen, you can use the valuation analysis described above, as well as the separate condition and access analyses.  Changes that you make at the same time in Customizing for valuation take immediate effect in this function, without your first having to quit the transaction.
Display Actual Line Items - Profitability Analysis
Application component: Profitability Analysis
App type: SAP GUI
Description: By restricting your selection criteria, you can display a specific amount of line items in the line item list. The line item list is especially useful for displaying characteristics that you do not use for creating profitability segments and that you have deactivated accordingly in Customizing (by choosing Structures  Define Profitability Segments Characteristics (Segment-Level Characteristics). In costing-based Profitability Analysis, these characteristics are still filled in the line item and hence listed in the line item list. You can display either planning data or actual data in a line item list. If you wish to analyze your line items using the drilldown reporting functions instead of the SAP List Viewer functions, use the line-item based reports.
Run Top-Down Distribution - By Period
Application component: Profitability Analysis
App type: SAP GUI
Description:  In Profitability Analysis, sales revenues, sales deductions, and costs of goods manufactured are generally stored at the customer/product level. However, many business transactions - such as freight invoices, insurance expenses, or advertising - cannot easily be assigned to such a detailed level in CO-PA. Consequently, these need to be posted at a summarized level, such as the division, sales organization, or company code level. Top-down distribution of actual data is a periodic function that lets you distribute this aggregated data to more detailed levels in CO-PA on the basis of reference information (such as the data from the previous year). Example Freight invoices that for organizational reasons can only be posted by division can be distributed to sales organizations based on the anticipated freight costs. This function is only available with costing-based Profitability Analysis. 
Key features: The data is distributed according to existing reference data. You can use either planning or actual data as a reference. You can also distribute period by period, or aggregate the period values to smooth out variances. The system distributes the data by value field or according to how the values in the selected value field are distributed.  When top-down distribution is executed, values that are not assigned at the higher level (#) are distributed. Characteristic Derivation occurs but only for those characteristics that were used in summarization (in other words, those values for which the summarized field in the processing instructions screen was selected). You can perform distribution in any of the following ways:You can select values posted to any profitability segments and in any value fields, and then distribute this data to a specified distribution level.You can use existing actual or planning data as the basis for this distribution. The basis can be the values in a single value field (such as revenue) or a calculated value (such as contribution margin 1) or occur by value fields.You can select several record types for the data to be distributed and the reference data. You can summarize the different record types in the reference data, which means that the reference data is treated as if it had the same record type.You can also distribute period by period, or aggregate the period values to smooth out variances. Note Using top-down distribution of actual data can lead to quite large data volumes, since the data is distributed to a large number of profitability segments. Assessment can be used to obtain a complete view while eliminating data volume at the same time:For example, if you assess from n cost centers to m profitability segments in each case, you create n*m data records. As an alternative, you can first assess from n cost centers to one (or only a few) profitability segment(s), and then distribute this data to m segments. If the distribution factors for each cost center are the same, this technique only leads to 2+m records.
Run Profitability Report - Profitability Analysis
Application component: Profitability Analysis
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   To analyze your profitability data in drilldown reporting, you execute a report that has been defined in accordance with your requirements.  
Key features:   There are several ways of executing a report:  You can execute both profitability reports and reports based on line items by choosing Information system   Execute report from the CO-PA application menu.  From report definition, you can choose  to start the respective report.  You can include your reports in the role menus so that they can be executed directly via a menu option. In this way, you can allow users to access those reports that are relevant to them. For more information on this procedure, see the section Assign Reports/Report Selection to Role in Customizing.   Independently of how you execute the report, a selection screen appears. Since it should be as easy as possible for the user to execute a report, most of the settings are made during report definition (see Defining Profitability Reports ) and only a few settings need to be made here:  You specify which data should be read. Moreover, you can change the output type setting made in report definition. To save the effort of having to enter the same values often, you can define selection variants by choosing Goto  Variant  Save as variant and use it to execute the report in the background.    A drilldown report can select new data when you call it up or you can have it work with a dataset that was saved on a previous occasion (frozen report data). If several options are available, the system displays a dialog box containing all the available options when you run the report. The possible options are as follows: Current data... , if you selected the option Display current data when you defined the report.  Data from ... , if you did not select Display current data when you defined the report.  Frozen data from ... , if frozen report data exists for the report.   Then the report is displayed using the output type you set. You can store as frozen report data the displayed status of the report. However, you can only execute this function (menu option Report  Freeze data  ) if given the authorization to store frozen report data.  Note If all selection characteristics are predefined as standard in the report definition or in the form, the report is executed directly without calling up the selection screen.

Application component: Profitability Analysis
App type: SAP GUI
Description:   There are various functions with which you can analyze your Customizing settings for valuating actual and planning data.  
Key features:   With the Customizing Monitor , you can gain an overview of all the Customizing settings relevant to CO-PA valuation.  The Valuation Analysis option is attached to different functions (such as manual line item entry or manual planning) and enables you to analyze in detail at the value field level all the individual valuation steps executed by the system during a given CO-PA valuation strategy.  With the Valuation Simulation function, you can analyze the effect Customizing settings have at different points of valuation, without having to use a posting transaction.   Customizing Monitor   You access the CO-PA Customizing Monitor by choosing Tools  Analysis  Check Customizing Settings . Then you can select the Overview of valuation node to display - in conjunction with the operating concern, point of valuation, and record type - the valuation strategies that have been defined.  Valuation Analysis   You can perform detailed valuation analysis using a range of functions with which valuation is possible. Examples of such functions are:  Manual Line Item Entry   Simulating Billing Document Transfer (you access the analysis tool by choosing Tools  Analysis in CO-PA Customizing)   Simulation of Document Transfer from Incoming Sales Orders  Subsequent Posting of Billing Documents  Periodic Valuation of Actual Data   Manual Planning Data Entry    When you have carried out valuation, start the analysis by choosing Extras  Valuation analysis .

Among the options open to you, you can execute a condition analysis for valuation with conditions and run an access analysis to see how a material cost estimate is read with flexible access. You call up these two functions separately:  For the access analysis, choose Extras  Analyze Product Cost Planning  For the condition analysis, choose Edit  Condition analysis   Valuation Simulation   To test valuation in detail or to run a detailed analysis of errors, you can simulate valuation in Customizing by choosing Tools  Analysis  Valuation Simulation  for the different points of valuation  . The screen that appears matches that for manual line item entry, but   no values are posted  . From this screen, you can use the valuation analysis described above, as well as the separate condition and access analyses.  Changes that you make at the same time in Customizing for valuation take immediate effect in this function, without your first having to quit the transaction.
