NBssSRaqa ga wsee we INTRODUCTION Purpose of this guide Resource Related Billing (RRB) is the SAP term for its functionality whereby billings can be generated based upon the resources (hours, costs etc) consumed. These types of billings are common in both the commercial and govemment business sectors and appear in many forms: Time and Material Services, Cost Type (Cost Plus Fee etc) Billings, Development Programs, Power by the Hour Support Contracts etc. This document is designed to be a step by step guide to successfully configure and execute a simple resource related billing (RRB) model. While each user’s actual business requirements will vary, the fundamental processes within SAP are fairly standard. By following the steps within this guide, users can create a working RRB solution based upon standard configuration settings that can be tailored to meet their specific requirements. While this document is not intended to be a detailed reference guide on SAP functionality, the following topics are covered in sufficient detail to build the RRB model discussed herein.

It is therefore helpful to possess a good understanding of the SAP Project System, SAP Sales & Distribution, and the integration of these modules with SAP Controlling.
