Entering Information for Calculating Overhead Using the User Defined Method

There are five delivered overhead methods to calculate overhead. Other than these five methods, you also have the option to create your own method for calculating overhead.

To create your own method, you can use the User Defined Method available in the P09J50 program. Using the User Defined Method, you can select the custom business function that performs the calculation, and attach it to the User Defined Method. There can be more than one User Defined Method in a rule.

On the User Defined Method subform, you can specify the Business Function Name. The system executes the logic associated with the function to calculate the overhead.

Note: You must use the UDC code 06 that is stored in the UDC table (09J/OM) to create the User Defined Method.
