• Key Concepts: 
  Rule basis is a feature in SAP's CO-PC Product Cost Controlling component that allows users to define rules for cost calculations. These rules can be used to determine the cost of a product or service based on various factors such as material costs, labor costs, overhead costs, and other costs. The rule basis also allows users to define the order in which the rules are applied, as well as the conditions under which they are applied. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the rule basis feature in SAP's CO-PC Product Cost Controlling component, users must first define the rules they want to use for cost calculations. This can be done by entering the relevant information into the rule basis screen. Once the rules have been defined, they can be applied to cost calculations by selecting them from the list of available rules. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining rules for cost calculations, it is important to consider all of the factors that could affect the cost of a product or service. This includes not only material costs and labor costs, but also overhead costs and other costs that may not be immediately apparent. Additionally, it is important to consider the order in which the rules are applied and the conditions under which they are applied.
