• As of Version 2022 FPS 00, SAP has provided out-of-box Integration of Project based cost planning integration with Financial Planning for Easy Cost Planning and Network Costing
• Before above mentioned version, we need to use Program (R_FINS_PLAN_TRANS_CO_ERP_2_S4H) to Transfer the value from Classical CO Table to ACDOCP Table
• With this new version, this manual step is reduced for Easy Cost Planning and Network Costing and now Data will be stored in ACDOCP Table along with Classical CO Table
• With This new feature, couple of Standard Fiori Apps of PS (Project Cost Report – Line Items, Project Cost Report – Overview) can be directly used as far as plan data is concerned.
• This New Feature is part of The Modernized Easy Cost Planning for projects and shall be available as part of S/4HANA perpetual scope
• In this Blog I will be explaining the Easy Cost Planning Integration with Financial Integration
