  • A pri­ma­ry cost and aci­ti­vi­ty plan is es­tab­lished: There are di­rect cost cen­tres, over­head cost cen­tres surch­ar­ge type, and over­head cost cen­tres al­lo­ca­ti­on type. The lat­ter are al­lo­ca­ted to the re­mai­ning cost cen­tes and the ac­ti­vi­ty pri­ces in di­rect cost cen­tres cal­cu­la­ted.

Lear­ning Out­co­mes

Fu­ture lea­ders in pu­blic ad­mi­nis­tra­ti­on learn what ERP sys­tems are, how they are im­ple­men­ted in the pu­blic sec­tor and how they may be le­ver­aged to make pu­blic ad­mi­nis­tra­ti­on more ef­fi­ci­ent and trans­pa­rent. Every stu­dent im­ple­ments the busi­ness case in a se­pa­ra­te vir­tu­al mu­ni­ci­pa­li­ty in SAP ECC and gains prac­ti­cal, first-​hand ex­pe­ri­ence with the sys­tem.
