Planning Books Initial Column - Calc in BW

[former_member89687]

Hi Experts,

We are exporting SNP data to BW using a datasource.

SNP puts all previous data in the initial column, but BW has to source it from the start to do calculations in BW. There must be some workaround or a standard way to avoid the data build up in BW.

All ideas will be appreciated.

create another planning book/ data view which starts from the begining date.

you can also set the daa view to not have initial column (i think it will work for SNP books too)

change your extraction to BW to source from this new book

Harish,

As i understand, the data sources are planning area dependant and not book dependant?
