InfoProvider Column Definition Customizing Screen 
You use this Customizing screen to specify which Key Figure of the InfoProvider to display as a column of the results table in your maintenance view.
You can make the following settings in this Customizing screen:
Sequence: determines the sequence in which columns are displayed in the results table. A results table is made of different column types: InfoObject column, InfoProvider column, and Virtual column. At runtime, the sequence number of each of these columns merge together to determine the final display sequence.
Hide Attribute: prevents a column from being visible in the results table of the MDP view. You can hide a column to set a default value for the attribute or the Key Figure during the creation of new master data.
Input Enable: indicates that the user can make an entry in the field.
Unit/Currency Information: when a column contains an amount or quantity that requires a currency or a unit of measure, you need to specify the attribute that contains this currency or unit of measure in order to display the value correctly.
Initial Value: indicates the default attribute value or Key Figure value used during the creation of new master data.
Copy Attribute Rule: specifies the copy rule to be used for an attribute or a Key Figure when a row is copied.
Weighting Factor: indicates whether the column is used in the calculation of the ranking index. To use a column in the calculation of the ranking index, the column must contain a numerical value, for example, the column should be a Key Figure or a virtual calculated column.
Allow Negative: indicates whether a negative value can be entered for an attribute of type Key Figure.
