SAP E-Book

In this step, you define accounting indicators that enable you to differentiate between billable, non-billable, and partially billable products for pricing and controlling purposes. Non-billable and partially billable services and spare parts are, for example, those provided under warranty or in goodwill.

  • Pricing
You can use accounting indicators to determine different prices for products, based on absolute or percentage discounts and surcharges. By specifying an accounting indicator in the pricing conditions for a warranty (in product maintenance), you can control pricing for products covered.
  • Differentiation of actual costs in controlling
In Controlling, you can use accounting indicators to differentiate between actual costs and expenses when they are posted to an internal order.
The accounting indicator also allows you to settle costs and expenses to the following settlement receivers:

  • Alternative internal order to the default order

  • Sales order item (Sales and Distribution)

  • Cost center

You can specify an accounting indicator in service orders and confirmations as follows:

  • At item level (for a product), to control pricing and differentiation of costs in controlling
  • At header level, to control pricing for all items in the transaction
  • In amount allocation for an item prior to billing (influences pricing only)

Accounting indicators that you enter in a service order are automatically copied to a confirmation that you create as a follow-up document.

Note on Usage of Accounting Indicator for Cost Differentiation

It only makes sense to assign an accounting indicator to a service order, or service confirmation if you are using the controlling type single-object controlling and one of the following cases applies:

  • The related internal order is settled to a profitability segment. In this case the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) component must be active. The accounting indicator influences the determination of value fields for the profitability segment in the profitability analysis.
  • The related internal order should settle its costs with different receivers (for example, warranty costs on a specific cost center).

Define Pricing with Accounting Indicator

You need to define a condition that includes the accounting indicator. To do this, you must have defined a condition table with an accounting indicator field and defined a relevant condition type (in Customizing for Service) under Basic Functions -> Pricing -> Define Settings for Pricing).

Services performed under warranty are free of charge, goodwill services have a 50% discount. You define a base price of EUR 100 in a pricing condition for the service product "Heating System Inspection" and use percentage discounts to define prices for warranty and goodwill services. In the condition records for warranty and goodwill, you define prices for your different accounting indicators.

A service employee decides that the inspection of a heating system should be goodwill. He enters the accounting indicator for goodwill in the service order. The system accesses the relevant condition records using the pricing procedure and finds a price of EUR 50.
