APO DP - loading InfoCube data into a planning area

[Former Member]

I am using APO DP V5.

In my planning object structure I have planning characteristics, some of which have 'navigation attribute' characteristics. For example, my planning characteristic 'product' has navigation attribute 'product group'.

In the standard transaction to load data from an InfoCube to a planning area, can the characteristics used in this transaction be 'navigation attribute' characteristics? (or do they have to be plannng characteristics?)

So, for example, could I load data at 'product group' level?

Thanks,

You can load at the 'product group' level. But the data gets disaggregated to the base characteristics in the planning area

am not sure if you can load data from cube to a navigation attribute (product group)

you might need to maintain it in the Admin workbench and also assign values there. Am not sure if you will get the attribute characterisitics in yout TSCUBE loading screen
