CostObjectNode

The business object Cost object node is a cost object that is an integral component of a cost object hierarchy.

Use

On a cost object node costs can be recorded that cannot be assigned
directly on the order or plant material level as, for example, can be the case when inventory differences occur.

Structure
The following can be assigned to the lowest cost object nodes, that is,
object nodes to which no other cost object nodes are subordinated:

Via this assignment the orders can be selected that belong to this cost object node.

Integration
The value flows of a cost object node can result from the following accounting transactions:

- Cost recording from financial accounting
- Material withdrawals
- Invoice receipt (external)

- Internal activity-based allocations
- Process cost allocations
- Overhead cost surcharges (internal)

Available Methods

• GetDetail : Determine Details for a Cost Object Node [ BAPI_COSTOBJNODE_GETDETAIL ]
  
• GetHierarchy : Determine Cost Object Hierarchy [ BAPI_COSTOBJNODE_GETHIERARCHY ]
  
• GetList : Determine Cost Object Nodes in a Controlling Area [ BAPI_COSTOBJNODE_GETLIST ]
  

GetDetail

The method CostObjectNode.GetDetail accesses detailed information on a cost object node.

You receive the following information:

Notes

The authorization object K_CKPH - cost object category
is checked with activity 03 (display).

The method CostObjectNode.GetList gives you a list of all cost object nodes in a controlling area.

Messages are returned in the parameter return. The parameterdocumentation shows the return codes and their meanings.
