Activity Based Costing

[Dmitry Oxenenko]

Does iDempiere support Acitivity Based Costing?

[Mohamad Iqbal]

Afaik, yes.. activity is an account dimension. You can try to activate it in Accounting schema window, then register your activity in Activity (ABC) window.

Hi Dmitry
I have been using Activity as Financial results filter.
What i have done is:
 - Activate Dimension on Account Schema.

 - Create C_Activity Records (Take into account that is Tree-Window)

 - Modify payment Window (C_Activity Filed) putting Mandatory Override to Yes

 - Modify Purchase Order, Material receipt and Invoice Vendor Windows (C_Activity Filed) putting Mandatory Override to Yes

This will force user to enter Activity on each transaction related with Costing.

As a result you may get Financial Reports by Activity.  (See Attached window)
