Interim results by cost component

To calculate interim Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) and interim revenue for a PCS project, use interim revenue recognition.

The setting of the Post Interim COGS and Revenues by Cost Component check box in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session determines how the Post Interim COGS and Revenues by Cost Component check box in the Project Details (tipcs2130m000) details session is set for PCS projects generated from a sales order line; it does this by using the Generate (Project PCS) Structure for Sales Orders (tdsls4244m000) session.

If this check box is selected, the interim COGS is specified by detailed cost components. To view and maintain the detailed interim COGS, use the COGS by Cost Component (tipcs3191m000) session.

If this check box is cleared, the interim COGS is not specified by detailed cost components; instead, the interim COGS is posted on the cost component specified in the General Cost Component for Interim Postings field in the Project Control Parameters (tipcs0100m000) session.

If you clear the Post Interim COGS and Revenues by Cost Component check box, database growth is decreased, which improves system performance.
