Purpose

• For initial activation of real-time Overhead (RTOHC) document processing
for a given business transaction, this report is used as an upgradeutility. It posts real-time overhead documents for documents postedprior to activation of RTOHC into posting periods for which RTOHC isactivated.

• In the event that changes to costing sheets or master data require that
real-time overhead must be corrected, you can use this report to reversereal-time overhead documents and repost them using currentcosting sheet and master data
Two transactions are available to start this report:

• RTOHC_UPGRADE for use as an upgrade utility


• RTOHC_REPOST for reposting in order to correct existing overhead
documents.

Prerequisites
Real-time overhead document processing must be activated in Customizingfor one or more Business Transactions.

Selection
The selection screen includes general options and selection criteria todetermine which documents to process. Document selection can be done bychoosing the direct cost documents (the document which triggers theoverhead costs) and/or the Real-time overhead document. In the case ofan upgrade run, selection by overhead document is not available sinceonly documents for which no overhead has been posted will be processed.


• If selection criteria are provided for both the direct cost and the
overhead documents, then only documents where a direct cost documentmatches the criteria with a related overhead document that meets theoverhead document criteria are posted.

• If selection criteria are provided only for the overhead cost document,
then the documents to be processed will be the direct cost documentsreferenced by the overhead documents which meet the criteria

• For an upgrade run, only selection by direct cost document is available.
Documents for which a real-time overhead document is already posted arenot processed.

Year/Posting Period into which repostings are made.
