• Key Concepts: 
  Quantity structure control is a feature of SAP's CO-PC Product Cost Controlling component. It allows users to define and control the structure of a product's quantity, such as its size, weight, or volume. This helps to ensure that the product meets the desired specifications and is cost-effective. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Quantity structure control can be used to define the structure of a product's quantity in terms of size, weight, or volume. This can be done by setting up a quantity structure in the system and then assigning it to the product. The system will then automatically calculate the cost of the product based on the quantity structure. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a quantity structure, it is important to consider the cost implications of each option. For example, if a product has a large size, it may be more cost-effective to use a smaller size with more components. Additionally, it is important to consider how the quantity structure will affect the production process and any associated costs.
