• SAP Tcode: FER1 - Trace flow of primary costs

  
  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code FER1 is used to trace the flow of primary costs in an organization. It is a tool that allows users to view the cost elements associated with a particular cost object, such as a cost center or an order. This transaction code is used to analyze the cost structure of an organization and identify areas where costs can be reduced. 
  
  Functionality: 
  FER1 enables users to view the cost elements associated with a particular cost object. It also allows users to view the total costs associated with a particular cost object, as well as the individual costs associated with each cost element. Additionally, FER1 can be used to compare the costs of different cost objects and identify areas where costs can be reduced. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  To use FER1, users must first select the cost object they wish to analyze. This can be done by entering the cost object’s number in the “Cost Object” field. Once the cost object has been selected, users can then view the associated cost elements and their individual costs by clicking on the “Cost Elements” tab. Additionally, users can view the total costs associated with a particular cost object by clicking on the “Total Costs” tab. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  When using FER1, it is important to remember that it is only able to provide information about primary costs. Therefore, it is recommended that users also use other tools, such as FER2 or FER3, to analyze secondary and tertiary costs. Additionally, it is important to remember that FER1 only provides information about costs; it does not provide any information about revenues or profits.
