HCI to populate Key Figure CAPASUPPLY

[Former Member]

Has anyone utilized HCI to populate Key Figure CAPASUPPLY in S&OP?  If so, what was your source of data?  Did you use ECC SAP tables?  how did you populate future periods?

Hi Laura,

You can populate future buckets using add_month function for KEYFIGUREDATE mapping:

1/ add_months ( to_date ('01' || to_char($G_LOAD_DATE, 'mmyyyy'), 'ddmmyyyy'), 'Number_Sequence')

- where 'number_sequence' is the column name from a flat file where you store records from 1 to n (n - depending on the number of buckets that you need)

This only works in case of a flat file import as you need to add this helping file to your data flow as a second source and map it to the target query.

We hope that having 2 different sources in one dataflow (ECC and file in this case) will be available in the next release.

2/ you could generate values for KEYFIGUREDATE in the preload script

Hope this helps,

Alecsandra
