Organizational Elements and
Master Data
 Operating Concern - (CO) Part of organization for which the
sales market is structured in a uniform manner (product
group, customer group) can contain >1 controlling area
 Controlling Area - (CO) Identifies a self-contained,
organizational unit within a group, for which cost accounting
can be performed
 Company Code - (FI) Smallest organ unit for which a
complete self-contained set of accounts can be drawn up
for purposes of external reporting

Organizational Elements and
Master Data
 Division -(SD) Based on responsibility for sales or profits from
salable materials or services
 Plant - (LO) Within Logistics, a place where either materials are
produced or goods and services are provided. Assumes variety
of roles (Maintenance Plant, retail or wholesale site)
 Storage Location - (LO) Allows the differentiation of materials
stocks within a plant
 Shipping Points - (SD) Fixed location that carries out shipping
activities (company’s mail department)

Organizational Elements and
Master Data
 Business Area - (FI) Represents a separate area of operations or
responsibilities within an organization. Can have several
Company Codes
 Purchasing Organization - (MM) Procures materials and services,
negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and bear
responsibilities for such transaction
 Sales Organization - (SD) Sells and distributes products,
negotiates terms of sales, and is responsible for these transaction
 Organizational Structure is prerequisite for making correct
application
CSU- specific system setting in customizing - it is the
framework

Overview of Projects
 Tasks with particular characteristics

Complex, unique, and involve a high degree of risk

Limited duration, and cost and capital intensive
 To execute a project:

Need a project-specific organizational form

Must describe the project objective

Structure the project activities you want to perform
 Structured according to:

How it is organized using Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

The processes involved using Networks

Operative Structures in Projects
 Project definition

Defines task to carry

Contains data which is binding on the whole project
such as start and finish dates and organization data
 WBS is the model of the project

Project services to be rendered in graphical form

Operative basis for cost planning, time scheduling, and budget
allocation in projects
 Network reproduces the activities from the project

Operative basis for the planning and control of dates, costs and
resources (personnel, machines, PRTs, materials)

Work Breakdown Structure
 Focus is on planning, analysis, description, control and
monitoring costs, basic dates and budgets
 It forms the basis for organization and coordination in the
project
 Shows amount of work, time required, and cost involved
 Operative basis for further steps
 Structured according to different criteria depending on level
detail
 Tasks and Activities are describe as individual elements

Planning (Cost and Dates)
 Various ways of planning dates

Plan dates in the WBS, binding on any further planning

Dates in the network are determined by the system or manually

Plan dates in lists, or using the various PS graphic interfaces.
 Types of dates

Basic Dates - Binding basis of time schedule in the WBS
elements

Forecast Dates - Expected dates for WBS elements
CSU
Chico
 SAP AG
Planning (Cost and Dates)
 Plan cost at different levels of cost planning

Structure planning (by WBS)


Cost element planning (detailed planning)


Plan cost without the reference to a cost element
Plan cost with reference to a cost element
Unit Costing

If information on sources of supply, quantities, and prices is
available, you can use unit costing to produce a project cost
plan
CSU
Chico
 SAP AG
Approval (Budget)
 Approval Phase

Prescribe the project funds in the form of a budget

Budget differs from the cost plan in that it is binding

Starts with defining an original budget for the WBS element

Store as overall, then distribute it

Release the budget in stages, prevents exceeding early
CSU

 SAP AG
Execution (Actual data)
 Actual dates and costs are confirmed

status of activity processing is documented

system checks the dates of the WBS element and set actual
dates



