Transaction OPI2

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can anyone explain the use of OPI2 transaction. If I am mot mistaken it does exclude cost which are posted against a set of cost elements from all PS cost reports.

I want to know if there are any further dependencies on doing this configuration. Though I want to exclude these values from reports, I want to see these as real cost for settlement.

Regards,

Hi,

I believe its all about PS reporting. You can create value categories to have PS information system reporting accordingly. I doubt there is any dependencies on other config.

Hi Mark

additional thought: OPI2 = value categories will only work for PS 'hiearchy' reports, but not for cost element and line item reporting (but there, of course, you could select only certain cost elements)

Hi Thorsten,

Thank you for the input. Further, what you mean by certain cost elements?

Hi Mark,

As Thorsten has said Value categories are used for hierarchial repoting within PS. Value categories are used to report Cost, Revenues or some specific Statistical key figures (SKF's) ref OPI1.

You assign a group or range of Cost elements to these Value categories for cost reporting within PS.

Some eg. of Value categories can be

Material Cost -

Internal Servies -

External Services -
