3690041 - Plan Cost Calculation Logic for Customer Project Work Package

Clarification is required regarding the logic used for plan cost calculation for customer project work packages in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

A clear understanding of the cost calculation mechanism is necessary for accurate planning and analysis of customer project work packages.

To verify the cost calculation:

1. Open the Work Package tab in the Plan Customer Project app.
2. Select the relevant work package and navigate to its details.
3. Click on the pencil icon under the Effort section.
4. Confirm the effort splitting details by period in the popup screen.

Cost Calculation Logic

• The cost calculation is executed for each period individually.
• If currency conversion is required, it is applied to each relevant period, respecting the specific exchange rate applicable for that period.

Example:

• The effort distribution spans period 11 and period 12.
• Effort details:
  • Period 11: 105 hours
  • Period 12: 106 hours
• The cost rate is maintained in Company Code Currency (EUR) as 100 EUR/Hour.
• Exchange rate details:
  • Exchange rate type for planned data is P Rate.
  • The exchange rate date is the first day of the respective period.
  • In period 11, the exchange rate from EUR to USD is 0.8613.
  • In period 12, the exchange rate from EUR to USD is 0.8575.

Cost Calculation

1. Period 11 Cost:

   • Hourly rate: 100 EUR × 0.8613 USD/EUR = 86.13 USD/Hour
   • Total cost: 86.13 USD/Hour × 105 hours = 9,043.65 USD

2. Period 12 Cost:

   • Hourly rate: 100 EUR × 0.8575 USD/EUR = 85.75 USD/Hour
   • Total cost: 85.75 USD/Hour × 106 hours = 9,089.50 USD

Total Cost for the Work Package:
9,043.65 USD + 9,089.50 USD = 18,133.15 USD
