Functionality

This transaction code is used to calculate variance on production order collectively.

The system compares the control costs (actual costs) with the target costs and assigns the
variances to variance categories. The variances are assigned to variance categories in the
following sequence:
 Input price variance
 Resource-usage variance
 Input quantity variance
 Remaining input variance
 Mixed-price variance
 Output price variance
 Lot size variance
 Remaining variance

Variances are 0 if only partial Goods Receipts has been performed.

Variances are posted if only complete Goods Receipts has been performed.

Scenario

We want to calculate variances on all the production order in all the plant.

Requirements

WIP has been calculated at the previous step.
