• SAP Tcode: GM_CS_RULES - Configure Cost Sharing Rules

  
  Overview:
  GM_CS_RULES is a SAP transaction code used to configure cost sharing rules in the SAP system. It is used to define the rules for how costs are shared between different cost objects. This transaction code is part of the Controlling (CO) module and can be accessed via the SAP Easy Access menu. 
  
  Functionality: 
  GM_CS_RULES allows users to define cost sharing rules for different cost objects. These rules determine how costs are shared between different cost objects, such as cost centers, orders, and projects. The rules can be based on various criteria, such as percentage of total costs, fixed amounts, or a combination of both. The rules can also be set up to apply to specific cost elements or all cost elements. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Access GM_CS_RULES via the SAP Easy Access menu. 
  2. Enter the name of the rule you want to create and select “Create”. 
  3. Enter the criteria for the rule and select “Save”. 
  4. Select the cost objects that should be included in the rule and select “Save”. 
  5. Enter the percentage or fixed amount for each cost object and select “Save”. 
  6. Select “Activate” to activate the rule and make it available for use in the system. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to ensure that all cost sharing rules are properly configured before they are activated in the system. It is also recommended that users test out their rules in a test environment before activating them in production. Additionally, users should periodically review their cost sharing rules to ensure they are still valid and up-to-date with their current business needs.
