Monitoring Analytics Capabilities

With the Manage Price Deviations app, you can analyze price deviations across multiple transactions. You can use graphical representation, filtering options, and more to analyze the gathered data. This way, you can track price deviations per delivery item easily even if you have received several self-billing transmissions referencing a certain item.

This app comes with useful features such as:

• The app also provides detailed information about self-billing documents and their associated price deviations, allowing you to review and approve such deviations as necessary.
• The possibility to approve deviations inside the app. This allows you to mark individual price deviations as 'Approved'. This means that the deviation has been reviewed and accepted, making it unnecessary to readdress it in the future. You can also leave comments during the approval process, providing a rationale for the decision. It's important to note that this approval process isn't linked to subsequent actions and must be mistaken for a workflow function.
• The possibility to trigger new price simulations directly from within the Manage Price Deviation app. In case you detect a price deviation that might be related to erroneous maintenance of pricing condition records in SAP S/4HANA, you can trigger the price simulation after the condition records have been adjusted.
• You can filter self-billing documents by various fields, such as:
  • Referenced currency
  • Processing type
  • External delivery note
  • Outbound delivery
  • Approval status
• You can extract the data into a spreadsheet for further analysis outside the system.

With the Manage Quantity Deviations app, you can manage quantity deviations between billing documents and self-billing documents in the SAP Self-Billing Cockpit. Just like the Manage Price Deviations app, it offers a similar look-and-feel, making it easy to navigate and use its features.

The app allows you to display self-billing documents with quantity deviations. The ability to filter self-billing documents by different fields, such as processing type (for invoice creation or automatic posting), external delivery note, outbound delivery, and approval status, lets you efficiently manage and review quantity deviations. This app enables you to display detailed information about all self-billing documents with quantity deviations, including the transmitted quantity-related data and quantity-related deviations in net value. Also, you can access details about the items in self-billing documents with quantity deviations, allowing for a comprehensive overview of quantity-related deviations in net value for each item. Approving quantity deviations for items in a self-billing document is a seamless process with this app. After relevant checks and confirmations, you can easily approve quantity deviations. It's important to note that if no quantity deviations exist, all items are automatically approved for the self-billing document.

For further analysis outside the system, the Manage Quantity Deviations app supports the export of data to spreadsheet format.

With the Manage Tax Deviations app, you can efficiently manage tax deviations between billing documents and self-billing documents in the SAP Self-Billing Cockpit.

You can use this app to display self-billing documents with tax deviations and filter them based on processing type, external delivery note, outbound delivery, and approval status. With these filtering options and the graphical representation of the deviation data you can effectively manage and review tax deviations. If more information is required, you can display details about all the self-billing documents with tax deviations. You can, for example, check for each data point the tax amount deviations, referenced and transmitted tax rates, customer VAT ID, supplier VAT ID, and other transmitted tax-related data.

Like in the Manage Price Deviations and the Manage Quantity Deviations apps you can easily approve tax deviations after you have done checks and confirmations based on the report. This approval indicates that the deviation has been checked and no further action is required regarding this item. Furthermore, it is possible for the user to add comments to this deviation so you can easily track later why a deviation was approved. It's important to note that if no tax deviations exist, all items are automatically approved.

For further analysis outside the system, the Manage Tax Deviations app supports the export of data to spreadsheet format.
