Symptom
- Requirement for configuring the costing variant and valuation variant applied to maintenance orders.
- How to include indirect costs ("overheads") in the total calculation for maintenance orders to improve cost determination.
- The system does not allow indirect costs (surcharges) to be entered in maintenance orders, which impacts the accuracy of financial reporting, profitability analysis, and cost allocation.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
Attempt to maintain indirect costs ("overheads") for maintenance orders in app Change Maintenance Order.
Cause
Missing configuration.
Resolution
- In SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, the costing variant assigned to maintenance order type is PM01.
- The valuation variant assigned to PM01 is 007. This is the best practice configuration, and there is currently no option available to modify these assignments.
- To enable overhead calculation, assign the overhead costing sheet to valuation variant 007 using SSCUI '102607 Define Valuation Variants for Material Cost Estimates'.
