About this title

Synopsis

Incorporate the Benefits of Activity-Based Costing into the Efficiencies of Your SAP R/3 System
Given SAP's dominance in the enterprise resource planning (ERP) market, many companies and their managers encounter SAP AG applications in some form or another. Many of these organizations have recognized the value of utilizing Activity-Based Costing/Management concepts to perform more accurate cost assignments or drive performance initiatives. Managers are then faced with trying to determine how Activity-Based Costing can be incorporated into the SAP environment. The 123s of ABC in SAP is the first book of its kind designed to help business managers understand the capabilities of the SAP R/3 business application to support Activity-Based Costing, Management, and Budgeting.
Divided into three parts-the conceptual foundation, the capabilities of SAP ABC, and integration with other tools-the book provides readers with the following:
* An explanation of how Activity-Based Costing can be used with SAP
* Helpful hints for implementing ABC into SAP
* Insights into the most common difficulties and potential solutions when implementing ABC into SAP
* Summary tables that highlight key decisions to be made, implementation hints, and organizational challenges
* Detailed descriptions of SAP software applications to support the Activity-Based Costing approach as well as the integration of SAP R/3 with Oros software
* Examples of the tandem usage of Resource Consumption Accounting with Activity-Based Costing
