Execute a Control Set

Perform these steps to execute controls and monitor their progress.

Prerequisites

An administrator has assigned relevant authorization objects to you to execute controls in Control Monitor. For detailed information about how to assign the authorization objects, refer to the topic “Authorization for Performing Consolidation Tasks” in the Security Guide for SAP Business Planning and Consolidation, version for SAP BW/4HANA available on the SAP Help Portal.

A category/time pair has been assigned in Planning and Consolidation Administration to the control set you want to execute. See Working with Control Sets.

Procedure

  1. In Start of the navigation pathConsolidation Next navigation step Controls MonitorEnd of the navigation path, select the entity or group of entities required and click Run Controls.

    The results are displayed in the Controls Monitor page.

    Note

    For loaded data, when the property Bypass LC in ctrls in the Entity dimension is left blank for a given member, the Local Currency member (LC) of the Reporting Currency dimension is used to run controls.

    To bypass this, you can set the property Bypass LC in ctrls to Y, which means the currency specified for the entity (for example, EUR) is used to run controls.

Controls are executed according to the control level associated to the selected entity.

Example

If the entity on which controls are executed is Basic (Control Level 1), then only Level 1 controls are executed within the relevant control set. If the entity on which controls are executed is Standard (Control Level 2), then Level 1 and 2 controls are executed. If no control level is associated to the selected entity, all controls are executed for the selected entity.

A specific Data Manager package can trigger the execution of a control set.
