Product / External costs settings
A Product in SAP is used as template to link to default G/L Accounts and is used in Planon to contain standard links to be able to create a Billing Document Request, which always needs a Product (CatalogueItem). The following fields are relevant for the exchange to SAP. A Product can be used within multiple company codes, but as Sales organizations are unique per company code, the Products must be created for each company code. To be able to derive the Product unit, Price and Standard cost type, a Purchase Item should be created for the Product.
