Including Characteristics
By including a characteristic in the query, you specify that this characteristic should be available for navigation in the query data.
Procedure
In the BW Repository, choose the required characteristics and drag them to the relevant part of the query: In the Rows, Columns or under Free Characteristics. Alternatively, you can choose Add Characteristics in the context menu. The dialog box for selecting characteristics appears.
If you insert a characteristics that has a compound characteristic, the system automatically inserts this too. This also applies to copying and pasting. The system always inserts the compound characteristic into the filter's characteristic restrictions.
