Important, the creation of a Cost object is never a minor event. It has to be considered is relation to a structure change, an operation to follow, a project phase, a field Cost Center Cost Object for analytical postings, most of the time collecting operational costs, generally the common costs that will be reallocated. The cost centers are emptied :

Cost elements

Primary Cost Elements = P&L G/L account of the FI Chart of account Secondary Cost Elements = used for analytical postings only, to transfer costs or revenues from one Cost object to another. Activity Types They are used to input activity quantities, in planning and actual, that will be valuated at a given rate. T allows the transfer of quantifiable costs from a Sender Cost Center (provider) to a Receiver Cost Object (consumer) The price is constant the hole year. The sender Cost Center is monthly emptied by an actualization of the activity price, based on the consumptions and the monthly variance. Business Rule : For a giver Sender Cost Center, there can be ONLY ONE Activity type provided.

They are used send costs from Cost centers to other Cost Objects, based on the following criteria : Fixed amounts Fixed percentages Variable portions of costs on Cost elements Statistical Key figures All these criteria cannot be changed during the fiscal year in cumulative mode, because it will induce instability.
Settlement rule
Mainly for Internal Orders (exists for WBS Elements, but should be used as WBS are final receivers). It contains the rules along which the internal order will send its costs to receiver cost objects.

AA Asset Accounting
The AA module
In some affiliates, depending on its size (large Unisup and Salsa affiliates) this module is integrated with the modules CO and PS In that case, the Receiver of the Fixed assets information and, later, depreciations, is the WBS element (on CAPEX Structures) The costs are settled monthly to an asset under construction (AuC) first, and then on final fixed assets at the Asset installation.
