Create allocation structures and the corresponding settlement structures.

During settlement, costs incurred under the primary and secondary cost elements by a sender are allocated to one or more receivers. When you settle by cost element, you settle using the appropriate original cost element.

An allocation structure comprises one or several settlement assignments. An assignment shows which costs (origin: cost element groups from debit cost elements) are to be settled to which receiver type (for example, cost center, order, and so on).

You have two options in a settlement assignment:

  • You assign the debit cost element groups to a settlement cost element.
  • You settle by cost element - that is, the debit cost element is the settlement cost element.
This is useful, for example, if the required capital spending for an asset you are building yourself is to be monitored. These costs are settled by cost element at the end of the year or after plans have been completed for an inventory account in Asset Accounting.

Each allocation structure must fulfil the following criteria:

  • Completeness
An allocation structure is assigned to each object to be settled. All cost elements in which costs are incurred must be represented in the appropriate allocation structure.
  • Uniqueness
Each cost element in which costs are incurred may only appear once in an allocation structure. Only one settlement cost element may be assigned to a source within a particular allocation structure.

If you require additional debit or settlement cost elements, you can create these using the function Maintain Settlement Cost Elements.

When you settle to materials you do not need to create settlement cost elements.

You create an allocation structure as follows:

  1. Choose New entries and assign an identification code and a description for your allocation structure.
  2. Choose Assignments to create a settlement assignment.
  3. Choose New Entries and create one or more settlement assignments for your settlement structure.
  4. Select the settlement assignment you require and choose Source.
On request, enter the controlling area for which this source is to apply.
Specify the cost elements or the cost element group to be settled to particular senders using the same settlement cost element.
If you specify cost element groups assigned to your controlling area, but not yet in the chart of accounts, you can create them here.
  1. Choosing Settlement Cost Element gives you two alternatives:
  • You assign a settlement cost element to the source for each receiver category (account assignment category).

  • Choose "By cost element" for the receiver categories that you wish to settle by cost element (debit cost element = settlement cost element).

To improve performance, use as few differing settlement cost elements as possible. You should try to use settlement by cost element as sparingly as possible.

To obtain a hierarchy listing of an allocation structure from the system , choose "Extras -> Overview list" in the allocation structures overview.
