Hi,

CVC's are Characterstic value combination.

CVC,s are the master data of DP. Characteristic values are discrete names or numbers . For example, the characteristic 'location' could have the values London, Delhi and New York.

You need to setup CVC's for further planning purpose ex: to forecaste are to extract data.

If you want to plan the sales forecast are to extract the sales history then you need to have a CVC on what basis this data should extract or maintain. If you want to extract sales history bassed on ship to party, product, region and sales office then your CVC should contain these caracterstics. CVC formate has to decide based on the demand planning process once at the time of Implementation.

Hi Sravs,

CVC's are characteristic value combinations which is the combination of

more characteristic values which you want to plan in DP system which

will be used in forecasting process

These CVCs will be used under master planning object structures which

contains your plannable characteristics

The combinations are then valid for all planning areas based on this planning

object structure.

These CVCs can be either maintained manually in DP or manually upload

using flat file upload in infocube

Hope it is clear now. Please confirm
