In this part of the post, we are going to discuss about the Valuation Variant component of Costing Variant. This component is the most important of all due to the information controlled by this component in a Cost Estimate.

We will first see how this component looks like:

So as discussed in the earlier post, we will go further into this post for understanding Costing Variant. 

If we carefully give a look at the following image of Costing Variant, we can easily notice that the Costing Variant is basically divided into 6 logical tabs (or parts, we may say). SAP has done this in order to simplify and at the same time to provide more flexibility in product costing. 

With the discussion under this and upcoming posts, we will try to look into each and every component under all the tabs separately to facilitate deeper understanding.

Also please note that for our understanding and analysis purpose, we will be considering the Costing Variant PPC1 and will try to discuss about others, once we are through with PPC1.

We have already gone through the series of posts explaining about  the Costing Sheet previously. Hopefully, it helped you understand product costing a little more. SAP as we know is an ocean and now let me take your some time to discuss more  on product costing part which is the essence of SAP's.

In this post, we will discuss about Costing Variant which forms a very very important part of SAP's product costing. A Costing Variant is the main part of SAP's configuration which plays vital role in Cost Estimates. We will see how.

This is fourth and the final part of the series of posts related to creation of Costing Sheet. For previous parts click on the following links:

In the previous three posts we have already understood about creation of various components required for maintenance of a Costing Sheet. Now in this post we will see how the components in combination help us to create a Costing Sheet.
