What Key figures Are Available?

The LIL gives you fast, direct access to more than 900 key figures from different sources (see the figure below):

  • Key figures from the LIS information systems.

It is currently possible to access key figures in the following information systems:

  • Shop Floor Information System (PPIS)

  • Sales Information System (SIS)

  • Purchasing Information System (PURCHIS)

  • Inventory Controlling (INVCO)

In total, these information systems provide more than 200 key figures. This figure is multiplied several times over in the LIL, since key figures are cumulated and presented at a number of different levels, as in the information systems themselves; for example, you can retrieve both a "material view" and a "plant view" of "valuated stock".

  • Key figures from the SAP modules (for example, Purchasing, Sales, Plant Maintenance) which are not integrated into an information system.

  • Tables from which key figures can be called.

  • Key figures and other items of information that can be called up using your own company's programs and transactions.

Such information can also be entered and then called up in the LIL.

Thus, you can use the Logistics Information Library to bring together, catalog, and make easily accessible your company's own internally developed data sources.

All the information and key figures throughout the system are brought together in one place and made available via the same common user interface (see the following illustration).
