Auxiliary key figures in DP

[Former Member]

Hi,

What is the main purpose of the auxiliary Key Figures?

I need to have some key figures that are the result of other Ker figures.

KF1 = KF2 + KF3

Should the KF1 be an auxiliary Key Figure?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Check the following details:

Auxiliary and Supplementary Key Figures

In addition to the key figures that can be directly called up, you can use technical auxiliary key figures. These auxiliary key figures are part of the information structures and are physically located in the database. They are listed in on tables together with the other key figures of the information structures.

By using the auxiliary key figures, dynamic supplementary key figures (such as averages value and standard deviation for lead time, quality key figures and part of nonconforming units). These supplementary key figures are not physically located in the database. They are calculated dynamically during runtime from data in both information structures with the help of internal conversion programs. The supplementary key figures are listed separately and their calculation will be described in greater detail.

I hope it helps you on your doubts.

Regards,

Michel
