Given SAP’s dominance in the enterprise resource planning (ERP) market, many companies and their managers encounter SAP AG applications in some form or another. Of those organizations, some utilize Activity-Based Costing/Management concepts to perform more accurate cost assignments or drive performance initiatives. Managers are then faced with trying to determine how  activity-Based. Costing can be incorporated into the SAP environment. This book has been written to help business managers understand the capabilities of the SAP R/3 business application to support Activity-Based Costing, Management, and Budgeting. This book is not intended as a primer in Activity-Based Costing (ABC): many such conceptual introductions have already been written. In order to bring the focus on the application of ABC concepts to an SAP R/3 environment, it is assumed that the reader has knowledge of the ABC framework.

This book is divided into three parts: the conceptual foundation, the capabilities of SAP ABC, and integration with other tools. Part One consists of Chapters 1 through 4 and covers the basic conceptual fundamentals to lay the foundation for detailed discussions.

The conceptual foundation begins with Chapter 1, addressing the shortfalls of ABC and introduces the Resource Consumption Accounting philosophy (RCA). This philosophy is heavily incorporated into the design of the SAP Controlling (CO) module, which contains SAP’s ABC functionality. The chapter also establishes the differences between ABC and RCA and provides support for the use of both approaches to support management costing needs. Chapter 2 expands the foundation to include analysis of the differences between the two main types of tools that support ABC concepts. Addressed are the core  conceptual and technical differences between stand-alone ABC modeling tools utilized to support ABC and an “integrated” ABC tool.

Although it is assumed that the reader understands the basic concepts of ABC principles, we do not assume the reader has any familiarity with the SAP R/3 application. Therefore, Chapter 3 provides the reader with a basic understanding of SAP R/3, specifically the Controlling module, including the CO-ABC component.

Since there is relatively little information available on the subject of ABC within SAP, many misconceptions abound as to its capabilities and maturity. Chapter 4 chronicles the evolution of ABC within SAP R/3. This chapter is useful for managers to determine what overall capabilities are available within the given release of SAP R/3 their organization either currently utilizes or is considering
implementing.

Part Two, the capabilities of SAP ABC, provides several chapters that detail the integrated ABC capabilities with each individual area within the SAP Controlling module. Chapters 5 through 9 are  structured in a similar manner. Each chapter addresses the main functionality highlights of the individual area of focus, the information flows, sample key business decisions to be supported, implementation guidelines or considerations, and ends with a summary table to be utilized as a reference.

Part Three utilizes the same chapter structure to address the combined capabilities of SAP R/3 ABC with the Oros modeling tool (Chapter 10) and the SAP Strategic Enterprise Management (SEM) application (Chapter 11).

In Costing based Profitability analysis you define costing keys. A costing key is a set of access parameters which are used in valuation to determine which data in Product cost planning should be read. In the costing key you attach the costing variant.

In the costing key you specify whether the system should read the current standard cost estimate, the previous standard cost estimate or the future standard cost estimate or a saved cost estimate.
The configuration settings to determine this costing key is as follows:

1. Assign costing keys to the products – Three costing keys can be attached to a single product for a specific point of valuation, record type, plan version.
2. Assign costing keys to Material types
3. Assign costing keys to any characteristics – You can use your own strategy to determine the costing keys. This is through user defined assignment tables.
