  • Total Actual Destination Costs value or % vs the sum of total Costs by GBU or Function, Zone, Legal Entity, Plant, Fixed Cost Group 2 or 2 Function on the selected period
  • Trend of Actual Destination Costs value by Month or Quarter depending on the selection. A comparison with the budget is available by clicking on either "Function Costs" or "Production Costs"

Budget - GBU
It corresponds to Plan Value V0 or V1 (budget entered on the cost centers in the ERP)
  • V0 - Version 0: This is the Standard Cost Estimate (Max capacity)
  • V1 - Version 1: This is a version that can be used freely in the ERP
Note: The V0 is currently filled only for production cost centers.
Budget - Function
It corresponds to the budget given by the Corporate function - manual files
  
Costs Evolution
Waterflow chart shows the costs for past and current year with differences for each 2 Function (Cost Centers Hierarchy) or Fixed Cost Group 2 (Cost Elements Hierarchy) and with Foreign Exchange Rate Effect.
The detailed bars can be between "2 - Function" and "Fixed Cost 2" groups by using the check box (below image).

  • Actual Y-1 : The Actual Destination cost for the previous year.  
  • 2 - Function/Fixed Cost 2 : This is the delta for each Function or Cost group 2 between the previous year and the current year actual destination amounts.  
  • FX effect: Foreign Exchange effect. Difference in Actual Y converted using the Y-1 rate and Actual Y using the Y rate.
  • Actual Y : The Actual Destination cost for the current year.
Currency conversion: CAR 3
The Actual Y-1, as well as the function/fixed cost 2 bars, are converted using the rate of the last period of previous year (if all periods are selected then it's the end of December rate). The Actual Y value is converted using the last period of current year rate (if all periods selected then it's the previous month's rate).
Example: if the data selected was January to March and current year is 2014 then, Actual Y-1 bar will use the rate of March 2013 and the Actual Y is converted using the March 2014 rate.
Note: If you are comparing only Year To Date, make sure to select the correct months on the right "Period" menu.
There is a All/Function Cost/Production Cost Flag which enable to show either all costs (productions, SG&A etc...) or just Function costs (CBS) or just Production costs. This flag is defined by the plant: all actual plants costs  (Eg: 7822) are considered production. All GBU/Function which are not (Eg: RE00, CS00...). By choosing the costs that you interested in, simply click on either "All" or "Production Costs" from the top page of the dashboard (refer below image). If you wish to see example of the page, click "Production Cost" on top.

This chart only shows current year's result vs Year-1.
Total Costs By Value
Costs value by Actual Destination detailed by both Cost Center hierarchy and Cost Element hierarchy.  
Total Costs By Percentage
Costs Values by Actual Destination detailed by both Cost Center hierarchy and Cost Element hierarchy/Total Costs values by Actual Destination X 100%
Total Costs By Month
Costs values by Actual Destination detailed by both Cost Center hierarchy and Cost Element hierarchy each month. Conversion rate is taking the last available period's rate.
